There is something for EVERYONE on this episode of The Bellas Podcast. Bethenny Frankel, author of Business Is Personal, joins Nikki & Brie to talk about business, negotiations, weddings, parenting, and so much more!

The Bellas kick off the show and Open Up with a lot of energy after a week of feeling under the weather. They’re ready to bring some sunshine to your ears! Nikki & Brie are separated by distance, but not by drama. Nikki is dealing with some teething issues and a restless Matteo. Brie’s dealing with an emotion Birdie who’s suddenly obsessed with bodily functions.

One of the Bellas has been dealing with Baby Fever, and not everyone is on board with the timing. So what is the ideal age gap between kids for The Bellas? Buddy is a handful for Brie, and Nikki introduced Matteo to a new beverage fixation, and It’s dominating his life. It’s definitely genetic.

They also discussed trying to balance work life and parenting and what they really appreciate about one another’s parenting styles. With so much going on, Nikki’s also in party-planning mode for Artem’s 40th birthday and working on some last-minute details. Will it all come together as planned?

Nikki & Brie have been named Grand Marshals of the Toyota/Save Mart 350 at Sonoma Raceway this weekend, which is a lot of fun but comes with the pressure of picking the right outfit for race day. The Bellas also talk about their upcoming A&E Biography: WWE Legends documentary episode and Nikki’s upcoming appearance on Nickelodeon’s Slime Cup series!

Then the iconic Bethenny Frankel joins Nikki & Brie for a terrific conversation about business, how a straightforward approach works for her, why tracking spending is important, staying authentic while trying to grow, mansplaining, parenting, and the very controversial topic of prenup agreements. Bethenny has a very strong stance on them and speaks from experience when she gives advice to Nikki.

The episode closes out with Bethenny’s Inspiration & Affirmation, which clearly defines her approach to business.
