Welcome to Best Friend Energy! Let’s get to know each other, shall we? One of us is Clea, and the other is Joanna. Our friendship and business began with a single text and ended with us organizing celebrity homes, traveling the world and laughing every step of the way. You might know us from the hit Netflix series “Get Organized with The Home Edit” but we've got a lot more to talk about. Real life isn’t always so easy to organize. We get it, we live it, and we want to talk about it. Everyone needs a vent session and we’re ready. Let’s dig in on loud chewers (hard pass), mom-nonsense of the week, what we’re online shopping for at 3am, every travel tribulation and what we’re binge watching. Pop the champagne, open the Twizzlers and join us? Each week we’ll interview our best friends (yes, we have other friends!), answer your questions, and deep dive on all of the everyday annoyances that life has to offer. Best Friend Energy is a Sony Music Entertainment, Hello Sunshine and The Home Edit production Can’t get enough of us and want even more Best Friend Energy? We got you covered! Subscribe to “Best Friend Energy: Unpacked” for additional episodes every week full of our chaotic conversations, unfiltered tangents and all the things we can't stop talking about. The best part?
