Hosted by Rhonda Nelson (aka Rho), Hold My Purse is your space to prioritize YOU, take back your life, and own your journey without guilt or hesitation.

And with the joyful perspective of her 7-year-old granddaughter, Aria, you’ll be reminded to savor life’s simple, meaningful moments. It’s time to reclaim your time, your energy, and your peace. Tune in to Hold My Purse and join the movement that’s redefining self-care as the ultimate act of badassery. You’ve got this, and Rho’s got your back. Let’s get this party started!
