#906. Brianna LaPaglia is back on the pod — and 2025 treated her like the full-on rollercoaster it was. In this episode, she’s spilling everything: the fear, the growth, the career pivots, the solo adventures, and all the stuff she’s never had the chance to fully explain.

We talk the iconic Tarte Turks & Caicos trip, surviving Special Forces (and yes, the pain, sweat, and chaos that came with it), saying goodbye to BFFs and saying hello again to PlanBri Uncut, learning to be alone for the first time in forever, and the kind of self-discovery that hits differently when you’ve been through a lot. Plus, she’s giving us the real talk on dating, life lessons, and what she’s bringing into 2026!

Real, funny, and totally the Brianna Chickenfry we all know and love— this episode is a vibe you don’t want to miss!
