Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star unveils ‘Badass Workshop’ tour

A business executive and reality TV star, Bozoma John, has noted that she is not new to controversies, thereby knowing how to deal with them. Bozoma stated this in an interview with Saturday Beats at the Badass Workshop tour, which she commenced in Lagos on March 8, 2025.

Speaking on how she plans to navigate her way in the entertainment industry as one of the cast members of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, given her background as a business executive, she said, “Sometimes, people think that in the business world, there’s no emotion. If you’ve been in a boardroom, you will know that there are conflicts, and sometimes it is very loud conflict.

“There’s politics, there’s backbiting and people who want to get you fired. All of those things exist in the business world, but when people watch reality TV, they think that they’re seeing people differently. It’s just a human condition that you’re seeing. As far as I have been able to handle that in the business world, then I can handle it with some housewives too.”

Bozoma’s workshop, which coincided with the 2025 International Women’s Day celebration, shed light on how one can be the best version of oneself and live their best and greatest self. The workshop also featured other keynote speakers who shared their journeys to success and self-acceptance.

Explaining why she named the event the ‘Badass Workshop’, Bozoma stated, “It is self-made. You know, sometimes people give you a nickname, but I chose that one for myself because I just felt like, as a corporate executive, many people felt the things that I did were not normal. I’m crashing the glass ceiling but also breaking down old stereotypes and ways that people think that one should be.

“So badass for me is a way to define that feeling of being really empowered where you feel like you can do anything. It’s funny because four years ago, Harvard wrote a case study on my career and the following year, they invited me to take a class and I named it, ‘The Anatomy of a Badass’ because just like if you’re studying human anatomy you think, how do bones work, how do muscles work? how does our heart work? and the likes? So, I’m like, how does a badass work?

how does that come together? For me, the anatomy of a badass would help you understand all of the pieces that are required.”
