This week, Jason is joined by Summer House fan favorite, Loverboy co-founder, and true example of entrepreneurial spirit, Amanda Batula !
Amanda may be best known from Bravo’s hit series Summer House where she quickly became a fan favorite for his candidness, creativity, and unfiltered charm, but she is so much more than just a cast member. She is a designer, creative director, entrepreneur, and someone who is redefining what it means to build a business in the public eye. She has brought her design sensibility, branding, expertise, and sharp instincts to the forefront of the wellness and lifestyle space. With her eyes on the future, she is expanding her voice beyond reality TV and focusing on new creative projects, digital ventures, signature lines, and launching her own swimwear brand.
Amanda opens up about heading into the new season of Summer House — from what she knew going into what fans can expect. She shares how her journey began with an internship at Rent the Runway and a junior graphic design role, never imagining she’d end up on reality TV. Amanda reflects on her first big purchase with her reality TV income, how she learned financial independence, and her thoughts on prenups. She dives into balancing love and business with her husband, what she earns from Loverboy, and the buzz around Labubus vs. Lafufus. Amanda also talks through how she chooses brand deals, what goes into creating content, and the impact of training their dogs, along with her passion for animal rescues. Plus, she gets candid about navigating depression and medication, the surprising influence of the Summer House fandom, and everything fans can look forward to this season.
Amanda reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
