If This Was Your Last Single Summer feat. Tunde Oyeneyin
2d ago01:33:09Summary readyWe are so excited to have Tunde Oyeneyin back on the show IN PERSON to talk about this being her last single summer. She shares why she’s decided it’s her last summer without a partner and how she is acting accordingly, manifesting, and prepping for the right guy – and how you can do the same. She is spilling the tea on a nightmare matchmaker experience she had, a date with someone who seemed like The One…until he wasn’t, and why she doesn’t care if men are intimidated by her. In addition to the dating discussion, we chat about her being a 2026 Sports Illustrated swimsuit model and how she is more confident than ever at 40. She also shares her incredible and inspiring story of being hired at Peloton after being rejected initially, how Cody Rigsy advocated for her, and why you can’t give up on your dreams. Before Tunde joins us, we each share recent crazy experiences we had in NYC – Rayna at a massage parlor and Ashley on the streets at night. Enjoy!

How to Become a Rich Person with Haley Sacks (aka Mrs. Dow Jones)
May 401:21:13Summary readyTime to get rich, bitch! We brought in Haley Sacks (aka Mrs. Dow Jones), financial expert and author of new book “Future Rich Person,” to share non-intimidating advice and achievable goals for building wealth. She lays out the four things you need to do to get started even if you don’t have much (or any) money, how to curb your spending but still enjoy your life, and the fastest method for paying off debt. We also discuss the unrealistic advice women are given about money (and why to ignore it), how the American system is rigged against the average person (and how to combat it), the average debt Gen Z has, how to get a raise, and how to “brainwash” yourself with good financial content instead of the stuff companies are using to manipulate your wallet. Before Haley joins us, Ashley recaps another ridiculous restaurant experience, and Rayna reflects on her days working for an elite hospitality group. Enjoy!
