Break Up With Bad Friends: 22 Girl Code Rules Mar 01, 2024

Show notes

EP82: This week, we're diving deep into the world of female friendships, but we're taking it a step further than just "Girl Code." We're exploring the importance of respecting yourself and your relationships. I personally believe in holding myself and those around me to a very high standard. I would rather have very close friendships or none at all. I mean, what's the point of giving so much of yourself to others if you're not getting anything in return? Ladies, it is time we stop wasting our energy on less than relationships. This episode is all about respecting yourself, setting high standards, and building connections that enrich your life. So, grab your pen and paper as I share 22 girl code rules to live by. Oh, and if you only leave this episode with one piece of advice… PLEASE don’t be the friend that “ex-hops.” It’s not cute. XOXO let’s go :) Episode highlights: NEVER sleep with your best friend’s ex Going out rules in girlhood Never leave a girl behind at the bar Successful people don’t go out past 3 am Be a better plus one at events Tell your girlfriends if they have a wardrobe malfunction How to post photos of your friends CARE if your friend lives or dies Hype up your friends at all times Timestamps: 0:00- 2:20 | Intro 2:20- 4:00 | #1 rule of girlhood 4:00- 12:45 | Going out rules in girlhood 12:45- 16:30 | How to appropriately interact with others 16:30- 20:50 | Hyping up your friends and putting them first 20:50- 22:05 | Sneak peek into my exciting new business ⁠Alo Moves: ⁠Use code KOKO30 for 30 Day Free Trial and 20% Annual Membership CONNECT WITH KOKO ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kokobeaute/⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@kokobeaute⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/boujeebestfriend⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://boujeebestie.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://m.youtube.com/@KokoBeaute Girl Code Pt. 1 Girl Code Pt. 2

EP80: Grow up and glow up! In this episode, I am talking about (literally) everything to help you level up your life. Hair, nails, skin, sleep, makeup, wardrobe, meditation, daily habits, and working out, are a few of the many topics I am covering. I know my Boujee Besties always strive to be the best versions of themselves. But, there is always room for improvement. After all, we are always a work in progress.
