The Duchess of Decorum: Empowering Women Financially and Breaking Toxic Relationship MythsIn the ever-evolving landscape of social media, TikTok stands out as a platform that not only entertains but also educates and empowers its users. One such influencer making waves is Pattie Ehsaei, also known as the Duchess of Decorum. Her mission is to empower women to take control of their finances and their lives, breaking down societal norms that have held them back for too long. In this blog, we'll delve into her journey, her impactful content, and the vital lessons she shares with her audience.
Finding a Platform During Uncertain Times
The pandemic changed many lives, forcing people to adapt to new realities. For Pattie, it was a turning point. Previously engaged in public speaking, the cancellation of events left her with a wealth of knowledge and nowhere to share it. This led her to explore TikTok.
Initially, Pattie experimented with YouTube, creating longer videos. However, she quickly realised that attention spans were short, and viewers were tuning out before she could get to the meat of her content. With TikTok's one-minute limit at the time, she decided to pivot. Pattie dedicated two intense days to creating one hundred videos, posting three times a day, and the results were astonishing.
The Rise to Fame and Empowerment
Pattie's hard work began to pay off as her follower count climbed. One video, in particular, discussing financial responsibility, garnered almost six million views, catapulting her channel to new heights. Her follower count soared from a humble beginning to nearly a million, a testament to the power of perseverance and content that resonates.
But Pattie's content goes beyond mere entertainment. Her mission is to empower women, teaching them about financial independence and self-worth. She challenges the traditional narrative that women should rely on men for financial security, drawing from her own experiences and the lessons learned from her mother.
Lessons from Her Past
Pattie's background plays a significant role in her perspective. Born in Iran, she witnessed the dynamics of financial dependency firsthand. Her mother had a successful career in Iran, but upon moving to the United States, she faced barriers that limited her ability to work. This shift drastically altered the power dynamics in her family, leaving Pattie's mother in a vulnerable position. Pattie's mother often reminded her, "Don't be like me," emphasizing the importance of financial independence.
These experiences fuel Pattie's passion for empowering women globally. She believes that too many women find themselves in toxic relationships, feeling trapped due to financial constraints. Her goal is to change that narrative, teaching women how to be self-sufficient and financially literate.
Redefining Expectations for Women
Pattie's advocacy extends to reshaping societal expectations for women, particularly regarding their futures. She points out that many young girls are raised with the "princess" mentality, conditioned to believe that their ultimate goal is to marry a prince. This outdated mindset limits their potential and perpetuates dependency on men.
In contrast, Pattie's approach encourages girls to envision themselves as powerful figures, capable of achieving their dreams without relying on a partner. She advocates for teaching financial literacy to young girls, preparing them for a future where they can stand on their own two feet.
The Importance of Financial Independence
Financial independence isn't just about money; it's about empowerment and self-worth. Pattie's mantra revolves around the idea that women can live fulfilling lives without relying on a partner. She emphasizes that the happiest women are often those who are single and self-sufficient.
This message is crucial, especially as many women still feel societal pressure to marry or find a partner to feel validated. Pattie challenges this notion, asserting that women can be their own saviors and should focus on their own happiness first.
Spotting Toxic Relationships
One of the more entertaining yet poignant aspects of Pattie's content is her humorous take on relationships. She often shares stories of her dating experiences, particularly her encounters with "broke ass dusty dudes." These stories serve as cautionary tales, highlighting the importance of recognizing unhealthy relationships.

Chad Huber: The TikTok Mailman Catfishing The Catfish Scammers!
Welcome back to 'The TikTok Influencers You Really Should Know About'! with your host, International Media Coach and fellow TikTok creator Christine Blosdale. In today’s episode Christine interviews Chad Huber, a former middle school teacher turned hilarious TikTok mailman.
Chad Huber is not your typical TikTok star. He began his journey in December 2019, initially out of boredom during the pandemic. What started as a simple engagement with a scammer quickly turned into a viral sensation. His knack for humor and ability to raise awareness about scams has garnered him a significant following.
Chad’s TikTok channel focuses on the antics of romance scammers, primarily those operating out of Nigeria and Ghana. These scammers often use fake identities, typically portraying themselves as military personnel or overseas professionals, to lure victims into emotional and financial traps. Chad’s approach involves humorously engaging with these scammers, creating a unique blend of comedy and education.
The Art of Messing with Scammers
What makes Chad’s content so engaging is his ability to turn the tables on scammers. Instead of falling victim to their schemes, he plays along, often responding with witty and absurd replies that highlight the ridiculousness of their claims.
Understanding the Scammer’s Playbook
Chad explains that these scammers often share tales of woe, claiming they need money for various emergencies—whether it’s a sick relative or a broken phone. The recurring theme is their desperate need for financial assistance, which they attempt to justify through elaborate stories.
The Evolution of Chad’s Content
As Chad continued to engage with scammers, he noticed a growing interest from his audience. The more he posted, the more people wanted to see. His content evolved from simple back-and-forth exchanges to a more structured presentation of the interactions.
Improv Skills at Play
Chad credits his background in improv for his ability to think on his feet during these conversations. He embraces the “yes, and” technique, which allows him to build on whatever absurd claim the scammer presents. This improvisational approach not only makes the exchanges entertaining but also showcases his creativity.
The Community’s Response
Chad’s followers appreciate his humor and the awareness he brings to the issue of online scams. His videos often highlight the common tactics used by scammers, serving as both entertainment and a warning to others. He encourages viewers to remain vigilant and recognize the signs of a scam.
