Briana Culberson has so much “gratitude” for her life today. Vicki Gunvalson’s daughter has such a full life, between focusing on her health; her adorable four children — Troy, Owen, Hank, and Cora; her husband, Ryan Culberson; and her Oklahoma farm.
The Real Housewives of Orange County daughter took to Instagram on Sept. 15, where she posted a video filled with clips from her life. In the video, Briana’s sons are swimming in a pond, before all of her kids can be seen hanging out by a football field. “I almost forgot…that this is what it’s all about,” she wrote over the video.
She then took to the caption of the post where she detailed her recent anxieties about her life. “I get caught up in my worries, in my stress, in things not going the way I’d hoped, busy schedules, insecurities, overwhelm, daily happenings…that I forget that this is all I’ve prayed for and worked so hard for,” she wrote.
“Anxiety cannot thrive where there is gratitude,” she noted.

Briana’s life is so busy, as she constantly posts videos with health tips and recipes to Instagram in between raising her family. But she’s still able to put the phone down and focus on her kids.Â
Briana took to Instagram on Sept. 25, where she admitted that her youngest son, Hank, asked her to do one simple thing. “Hank asked for me to put my phone away and play with him, so I did,” she wrote. “Then I couldn’t find it. And it felt so amazing. So I kept it out of my hand for HOURS. Like, nine hours.”

Although bringing her kids to football practice and baseball practice and school is a major part of Briana’s life, they were able to take some time during the summer to enjoy their lives as a family of six. Briana took to Instagram on July 8, where she revealed that the family took a trip to a ranch in Texas, where they fed baby giraffes, kangaroos, and pet some baby otters.Â

Briana Culberson shares new insight into her health journey
When Briana appeared on RHOC, she was open about her lupus diagnosis in 2016 and how it took a toll on her mental state. Briana took to Instagram on Aug. 2, where she admitted that she “played the illness/victim card for decades.”
But, she revealed that things changed for her when she started taking control of her health. “I now understand and FEEL the impact of my daily choices,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “I feel so empowered by the decisions I’m able to make for my physical and mental health all within my own control at home. I feel so much peace, empowerment, and freedom. I’m the healthiest I’ve been in 23 years. I’m now able to play with my 4 kids, and not only keep up but actually beat them on some things.”

Briana and Ryan’s relationship is still going strong. The mom of four took to Instagram on July 22, where she shut down rumors surrounding her relationship with Ryan, whom she married in a surprise Las Vegas wedding in 2011.
“Must’ve been a slow gossip week to go after a super duper boring daughter of a housewife…who hasn’t been on TV for 9 years,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “Let me go and set me free!”
This June, ahead of their 14th anniversary, Briana celebrated Ryan’s 41st birthday, where she posted the sweetest tribute to him on Instagram. “Life is so fun and spontaneous with you, and you don’t look (or act!) a day over 21!!,” she wrote in the caption of the post.
