“There is no limit to what we, as women, can accomplish” - Michelle Obama
ICYMI
To the women who have been made to feel small,
embarrassed,
or less than,
simply for being women,
today, we celebrate you.
Today, we gather in the rooms we’re building and the communities we own to shape a future where women are free to be fully themselves and celebrated for it.
Because the future is not shaped by women who stay quiet. It is shaped by women who are willing to be vulnerable, willing to go there, willing to get messy, and willing to say what no one else will, but what so many of us need to hear. That is the platform we’re building with our HSR Angels.
This is not just an International Women’s Day message. It is the mission we’ve dedicated our lives to.
To our angels, thank you for believing in us. To those who are new here, welcome. And ICYMI, you’re allowed to be hot, smart, and rich.
And we’re only getting started.
PS. If you want to contribute directly to the mission, we are continuing to hire and have a guest producer role open in LA.
This Week’s Mood Board

I knew I wanted to have HSR involved in my celebration of marriage, which I really don’t think would be happening without this community. At my lowest point, this community formed and has evolved with me over the last few years into something I could never have ever dreamt of. So it only made sense that I would want HSR to be apart of it.
This week’s mood board is in collaboration with HSR Angel Jaleigh Friend and The Friend Club who helped source one of Maggie’s photographers this weekend, @jannetphoto.
As we celebrate our marriage this weekend, I wanted to share more about our vision to bring 250 of our closest family and friends together after our ceremony on August 28, 2025,
We wanted to give our guests an experience inspired by the golden era of Los Angeles—the supper clubs, the velvet rooms, and the glamour hidden in the details. With this in mind we started blending deep burgundy and moody blacks, lace and black tie, candlelit tables glowing low with table lamps, and performances playing into the darkness. At the heart of it all, we commissioned a custom 50 foot mural of the olive trees where we said our vows back on August 28th, painted into our tent like a love letter to where we began our marriage. We're weaving in monogrammed details, hidden surprises, and moments that feel both grand and intimately ours, because that's exactly what this is.
We chose Los Angeles because this is where we're planting our roots, building our home, and starting our family. This week will be our way of showing everyone who's been part of our story the life we chose, and reminding them they're in it.
We wanted guests to come hungry, ready to dance and expecting the unexpected.

If Your Partner Won’t Sign A Prenup,
It’s a Red Flag
Is a prenup about distrust, or is it the smartest financial move a woman can make?
This week on the podcast, Chriselle Lim, founder of PHLUR and the voice behind “Rich Mom” on TikTok, shared the real story behind her public divorce, the alimony narrative people got wrong, and the financial lessons she wishes she understood before getting married. She talks about building a 250,000 person waitlist for Missing Person while navigating a messy public split, buying and scaling PHLUR, and turning heartbreak into business momentum. Chriselle also explains why prenups are about protection, how women can take control of their finances, and what no one tells you about the legal realities of marriage and money while balancing entrepreneurship and co-parenting.
