Everyone wants to be lucky, but what if luck isn’t something you’re given? What if it’s something you create? In this episode of Because I Love You, Bria breaks down the patterns behind people who seem to "always win" and why it has nothing to do with divine favor or being chosen.

You know that feeling when someone skips your story and suddenly your whole nervous system goes into crisis mode? Same. In this episode, Bria spirals (lovingly) about how social media is messing with our friendships. The soft blocks, the shared activity feature, the mute button, and that quiet panic when you realize someone you love hasn't engaged with your content in a year.

MY SKIN ROUTINE: https://liketk.it/5e7tZ


In this episode, I’m unpacking the unspoken parts of pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity shift no one prepares you for. From the physical changes to the mental chaos, to the quiet question of “will I ever feel like myself again?” This is my honest take on the messy, beautiful, and often isolating journey of becoming someone new. Not the old me… but maybe someone even better.

In this episode of Because I Love You, I’m walking you through the surprisingly unhinged (but incredibly effective) things that have actually helped me thrive postpartum.

From toxic relationship patterns to career procrastination, she breaks down the messy middle between w...

Outgrowing yourself sounds empowering… until you're in the middle of it wondering who the hell you even are anymore. In this episode, I’m breaking down the uncomfortable, sometimes embarrassing process of shedding past versions of yourself, (the ones you may not even like anymore) but still weirdly miss.

We can’t always choose what we inherit—but we can choose what we do with it.

In this episode, Bria opens up about inheriting depression and what it’s like living with the weight of mental health struggles that didn’t start with her… but could end with her. Instead of falling into victim mode, she talks about doing the unsexy, preventative work to keep herself mentally afloat.

It’s not glamorous. It’s not always inspiring. But it’s re...

Spoiler: my birth didn’t go the “traditional” route — and that was the plan.


In this episode, I’m sharing the story of my birth story- what led me to make that decision, how it felt, and what it taught me about trusting my body in a world full of opinions. No drama, no guilt — just intuition, a little anesthesia, and a whole lot of clarity.


Whether you pushed, were induced, had a home birth, a hospital birth, a surprise c-sec...
