Phaedra Parks Dishes on a Potential Career Move: "A Lot of People Don't Know This..."
The RHOA cast member reveals which job title is still on her "bucket list."
Phaedra Parks’ resume is as long as it is impressive. In addition to her reality TV career, The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member has found success in a wide range of fields, including everything from entertainment and intellectual property law to funeral and undertaking services to holistic medicine and publishing. Although the multi-hyphenate has seemingly done it all, she confessed there’s one career path she still wants to pursue.
The mother of two shared the details in the July 2 episode of Carter’s Cocktails, when the eponymous host asked if there were any job titles on her “bucket list.”
Phaedra Parks may pivot into politics: "That's something on the list..."
“What have I not done that I wanted to do? Not much,” Phaedra said. “Because anything I’ve wanted to do, I have manifested it. But you know what? What I do love, and a lot of people don’t know this, [is] politics. That’s the only thing I really haven’t done that I used to say that I would do.”
Host Carter Gregory then asked what elected position Phaedra was running for.
“Nothing just yet,” she replied. “But that is something on the list that I haven’t done. I love politics and I love politicians.”
Phaedra Parks wants to pursue floral design
Phaedra shed more light on her multifaceted career during a May 2025 interview with The Daily Dish, teasing a potential business move that could benefit her funeral home services.
“I’m always like, 'Wow, I should get into floral design and maybe become a florist, because it could complement the funeral home,'” she said. “You know, people order flowers for funerals, and I could supply funerals, and I could supply flowers to the funeral homes.
“I just love [floral design],” she continued. “It’s so peaceful being creative.”
Phaedra Parks says her hardest job is being a mom
While balancing multiple businesses and job titles isn’t easy, Phaedra told Carter that being a mom was the “hardest” role she’s ever taken on.
“You don’t know what your results are gonna be. There’s no handbook for it,” she said about parenting. “I think every parent struggles with, OK, No. 1, I want to see them as adults. So I’m like, ‘Lord, don’t let anything happen to me until I get them into adulthood… I gotta see my kids grown.’
“But at the same time, I want to give them experiences that inspire them to do things and expose them to things,” she continued. “But also, you don’t want them to be spoiled. You want them to understand good work ethic, so it’s an interesting balance.”
