Girlfriend talk: What Would You Do For Clout?

They call it attention-seeking. Lela calls it building her empire. In this episode, the girlfriends dive into the fine line between chasing clout and chasing purpose. What does it really mean when people accuse ambitious women of “just wanting attention”? And how can we use that energy to fuel manifestation, big moves, and soft life goals?

This isn’t just tea it’s strategy. The conversation flips judgment into empowerment, reminding listeners that visibility is part of success, and intention separates clout from clout-chasing.

No matter how chaotic life got, Lela kept hustling. From side gigs to passion projects, she tried to weave it all together always grinding, always building, always finding ways to create income streams. And in the spirit of trying to lift others up, she even put John on with business opportunities.

But what happens when your ambition and effort keep colliding with someone else’s irresponsibility? In this episode, the girlfriends unpack what it’s like to hustle nonstop, hold down multiple streams, and still feel weighed down by someone who refuses to pull their weight.
