Summary

Hey Besties! Ever dealt with a guy who thinks he's a dating maestro, juggling messages with multiple girls at once? Ugh, the worst! Can't we have one guy who's actually committed to making a girl feel special?

In today's episode, Violetta gets real with Brooke Schofield, co-host of Cancelled with Tana Mongeau. They spill the tea on Matt Rife's questionable dating tactics (seriously, bro?), but the conversation takes a deep turn as Brooke opens up about her challenging childhood with two drug-addicted parents. Brooke shares her journey dealing with borderline personality disorder, revealing the power of self-healing and finding stability through medication. It's a rollercoaster of real talk and genuine connection—tune in, Besties!
