Golnesa \u201cGG\u201d Gharachedaghi<\/a><\/span><\/strong> is working on downsizing as she begins a new year on reality TV.<\/p>\n

\u201cI did lessen the amount of weed I was purchasing. I would say it\u2019s less than $3,000 now per month,\u201d GG, 44, exclusively shared with Us Weekly<\/i> before the Thursday, January 8, series premiere of The Valley: Persian Style<\/i><\/span><\/a>. \u201cI rely on cannabis for my health. I rely on it for psychological calmness, for a lot of things, and I\u2019m OK with it. It\u2019s a natural substance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The former Shahs of Sunset<\/i><\/span><\/a> star added that she\u2019s \u201cnot really\u201d drinking alcohol anymore. Instead, she\u2019s choosing to spend her money on legal weed.<\/p>\n

During the first episodes of Bravo\u2019s newest reality show, GG was put in the hot seat about her finances and her need to downsize.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tFor a special group of Persian friends, it\u2019s time to say goodbye to Beverly Hills and hello to suburban life in The Valley: Persian Style. Featuring Shahs of Sunset alumni Reza Farahan, Mercedeh \u201cMJ\u201d Javid and Golnesa \u201cGG\u201d Gharachedaghi, the new Bravo show will see the reality TV legends navigating a new chapter of their [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI know that Golnesa wants to bury her head in the sand and pretend that the problems aren\u2019t there,\u201d Mercedeh \u201cMJ\u201d Javid<\/strong><\/a> said in a confessional interview. \u201cBut that\u2019s not adulting, sis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before viewers \u2014 and costars \u2014 come for her lavish lifestyle, GG confirmed she downsized from six bedrooms to five bedrooms.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m happy,\u201d she told Us<\/i>. \u201cIt\u2019s a little hard. You gotta fit all the clothes into the rooms and stuff. But we\u2019re in a great neighborhood, a great school. My backyard is gigantic, so I have these two huge Rottweilers that get to just roam all around. It\u2019s great.\u201d<\/p>\n

After learning that her spending was a hot topic of conversation, GG said she did some thinking and realized that she needed to make a change.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will be honest with you. Hearing how much I was spending, when I said that out loud \u2014 because I had to actually do the math in my brain on how much I was spending \u2014 I was like, \u2018Oh, wow,\u2019\u201d GG told Us<\/i>. \u201cI can have a whole different other mortgage if I wanted. It was nice to hear that.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a unique way, GG \u2014 who made her reality TV debut on Shahs of Sunset<\/i> in 2012 \u2014 argued that being on a reality show is the best therapy.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou hear yourself or you watch yourself and you\u2019re like, \u2018Oh, my gosh.\u2019 I just wasn\u2019t expecting my credit and whatnot to be brought up,\u201d she said. \u201cWhen I hired Reza<\/strong> [Farahan<\/strong>] to be my agent, I didn\u2019t think that my credit was going to be a topic of discussion in a friend\u2019s group of people. These are all my friends.\u201d<\/p>\n

While The Valley: Persian Style<\/i> promises plenty of drama amongst GG\u2019s friend group, she is thrilled to be back filming with some of her closest pals after Shahs of Sunset <\/i>said goodbye in 2021.<\/p>\n

\u201cReza and I got very close. I feel like as soon as the cameras went down, we didn\u2019t have an excuse for forcing a friendship, and we became friends naturally,\u201d GG said. \u201cWe started traveling and doing so many fun things together.\u201d<\/p>\n
