Hey loves — in today’s juicy episode of The Brave Table, I’m joined by the unapologetic queen herself, Caroline Stanbury — Real Housewives star, real estate mogul, mother of 3, and host of Uncut & Uncensored. And whew, we go there.
We talk about what it really takes to reinvent yourself at any age, how to reclaim confidence after divorce, why marrying a younger man still raises eyebrows (and why she couldn’t care less), and how to stop playing small in a world that’s uncomfortable with women being bold AF. Caroline doesn’t hold back — she shares the raw truth about fame, motherhood, finances, and what it means to live life on your own damn terms.
If you’ve ever felt the pull to start over, shake sh*t up, or redefine what’s “normal” — this episode is your permission slip.
