Sutton Stracke is heading into season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with a new sense of purpose.
While exclusively speaking to PEOPLE at her Sutton Green Label fashion show on July 22, the reality star, 52, opened up about stepping into her power and how she plans on approaching the upcoming season of the hit Bravo series.
“I think that it’s always great to be with a group of smart women and business women,” she said. “I’ve learned a lot from these women for the last five years and I’ve kind of come into my own.”

After joining RHOBH for season 10 in 2019, Stracke said that she feels that she’s “really found my voice.”
“I think becoming stronger as a business woman has made me stronger as a person,” she added.
With her new Green Label Capsule Collection, Stracke is proving just how much of a boss she can be. Her latest clothing line promotes “all sustainable circular fashion,” which was inspired by her interest in sustainability.
“I have learned about what fashion is doing to the earth and we are the second largest contributor to harming the environment,” she explained. “And so I wanted to be a part of the solution and not part of the problem.”
Filming for season 14 of RHOBH is now underway and two new faces are joining the show.
Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, a celebrated author, podcaster and marketing executive, and Jennifer Tilly, a cult-favorite actress whose has made appearances on the show, will enter the fold alongside returning cast members Stracke, Kyle Richards, Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley and Garcelle Beauvais.

Among the storylines expected to be explored is the marital troubles between Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley. The pair, who share two children, announced in May in a joint statement that they were separating after nearly nine years of marriage.
“We as a couple have been subject to a lot of speculation about our marriage,” the former couple wrote. “We have had our struggles over the last few years and continue to work through them as two people who love each other and share two amazing children together,”
“To safeguard our deep friendship and maintain a harmonious environment for our children we have made the mutual and difficult decision to take some time apart and reevaluate our relationship while we prioritize our children. We appreciate your love and support while we continue to do the work necessary throughout this journey,” the statement concluded. “With love, Dorit and PK.”
