For Listeners Who Missed the Episode
This episode is an iconic snapshot of Bretman Rock’s world: full of laughter, luxury, a little reckless decision-making, but mostly a celebration of showing up as your most unapologetic, confident self. You’ll walk away both craving a Birkin and reminded that “being the baddest” often just means loving yourself anyways—no matter how many shots you can (or can’t) handle.
Next week: Halloween decor, more twinning, and maybe (maybe) less tequila.
