Georgio Says RHOBH Reality Check, 2025 Reflections & Why 2026 Is About the Pivot
In today’s episode, I’m catching up with you after the holidays and getting real about why this Christmas felt different, what 2025 taught me during my first full year doing this full-time, and why “pivot” is the word I’m taking into 2026.
I talk about burnout, people-pleasing, stepping back from social media, and why sometimes the universe reroutes you instead of stopping you. I also break down moments from The Kardashians finale that unexpectedly resonated with me, including resilience, family dynamics, and learning when to try again — just differently.
Then we jump into Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, where I unpack why certain dynamics aren’t landing this season, my honest take on Boz’s corporate/producer energy, the Dorit–Amanda lunch moment that didn’t math, Kyle and Morgan still dancing around the truth, and why the show may be overdue for a cast shake-up.
I wrap things up with some quick Bravo thoughts, a look ahead to what’s coming in 2026, and an idea I’ve been sitting with about showing up more vulnerably with you all — because this community deserves it.
