Basically Besties

This week on Basically Besties, the girls get into everything from travel chaos (including a missed connecting flight) to navigating unexpected internet backlash after posting something a little too relatable. On the business side, they break down what’s next for Sunny De, including an upcoming warehouse sale and why they’ve shifted to a more balanced launch schedule. They open up about building their skincare and deodorant products with sensitive skin in mind, and what it really looks like to juggle school, social media, and running a brand. The conversation turns personal as they talk future goals—whether that’s exploring music, dreaming about motherhood and a more private life, or imagining completely different career paths outside of influencing. They wrap things up with a candid chat about ambition, financial independence, and the women who inspire them to think bigger as they step into their next era. 

This week on Basically Besties, we’re joined by the Steman family and get into the different roles everyone plays in the family—who you go to for advice, who brings the humor, and how a mom becomes the emotional backbone not just for her kids, but for everyone in their orbit. But the conversation takes a serious turn when they share a life-altering family accident that changed everything. What started as a normal day ended in a terrifying hospital stay, forcing them to confront how fragile life really is. The experience reshaped their perspective, brought them closer than ever, and even reconnected them with family they hadn’t spoken to in years. This episode is a reminder to hold your people close, let go of the small stuff, and never take a single moment for granted.
