We get into their failed second business and the five years it took to get back on solid ground. Brianna breaks down how running a fully automated studio in NYC works, how she started networking her way into referrals and new clients, and the 24-hour rule she and her husband Matt use to keep ideas alive when you're running a business together. We also get into showing up on camera when you're naturally shy, using Instagram trial reels to test content, and somewhere in between all of that, we end up on make-out stories, being a daytime girl vs a nighttime girl, and whether or not I should dye my hair brown.

]]> 2396 The Cabo Detour: NFL Circles, Bills Mafia & The Buffalo Effect I get into what went down when a random moment during a Buffalo Bills game in Kansas City somehow turned into years of friendships, NFL circles, and eventually a trip to Cabo. What started as a classic Bills Mafia moment during that wild playoff game just kept expanding through weekends, away-game travel, and plans finally making it out of the stadium. We get into Buffalo Bills fan culture, Bills Mafia networking, meeting people through NFL games and events, Buffalo Bills travel, the 13-second Kansas City game, people connected to players' circles, private events, and the social life that seems to orbit the NFL season… welcome to the Bills world.
