    RHOSLC Finale Was A Greek Tragedy!

    In this episode, I’m breaking down The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Greek tragedy finale – and yes, this play was very much about them. We get into Meredith’s checked-out energy, Heather’s sloshed read of the group, Bronwyn’s “concern” that felt more like a setup, and why I think Meredith should be demoted while Britney has earned her snowflake. I also talk about Mary being the only one willing to call out the bullshit in real time, why Lisa and Meredith walking away actually made sense, and what this all might mean heading into the reunion. I also touch on the rumor about a cast member’s alleged alcohol scare 👀, why Heather might want to watch her back next season, and why some of these women are playing a very dirty game with each other’s vulnerabilities. Plus, I share updates on the podcast: Details on my upcoming deep dive into Amanda Francis and the online course “Money Queen” worldThe launch of “Georgio Says: Anonymous, Please” – my new Sunday advice episode where I anonymously respond to your real-life situations If you’re listening on audio, please leave a 5-star rating – it really helps the show.

    RHOBH Reality Check, 2025 Reflections & Why 2026 Is About the Pivot

    In today’s episode, I’m catching up with you after the holidays and getting real about why this Christmas felt different, what 2025 taught me during my first full year doing this full-time, and why “pivot” is the word I’m taking into 2026. I talk about burnout, people-pleasing, stepping back from social media, and why sometimes the universe reroutes you instead of stopping you. I also break down moments from The Kardashians finale that unexpectedly resonated with me, including resilience, family dynamics, and learning when to try again — just differently. Then we jump into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where I unpack why certain dynamics aren’t landing this season, my honest take on Boz’s corporate/producer energy, the Dorit–Amanda lunch moment that didn’t math, Kyle and Morgan still dancing around the truth, and why the show may be overdue for a cast shake-up. I wrap things up with some quick Bravo thoughts, a look ahead to what’s coming in 2026, and an idea I’ve been sitting with about showing up more vulnerably with you all — because this community deserves it.

    I am Concerned for Meredith Marks | RHOSLC My Big Fat Greek Mother's Day Recap

    We’re still in Greece (Santorini) and this episode left me genuinely concerned about Meredith Marks. In Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 6, Episode 14 “My Big Fat Greek Mother’s Day,” the women split into groups, but Meredith’s energy is off. Between the TikTok trigger, the Mother’s Day phone call with Brooks, Lisa Barlow riding hard for her, and Meredith basically clocking out mid-excursion, something isn’t right in the water. Let me know in the comments: Is Meredith going through something serious, or am I seeing it differently?
