Career-minded Athena Miles comes from a long line of Southern divas, women who live by the nursery rhyme: first comes love, then marriage, then baby in a baby carriage- in that exact order. Athena's famous mother, a celebrity chef dubbed "The Southern Honeybee," is the biggest diva of them all, having built her Queendom on these beliefs- none of which Athena has yet to achieve. Fast approaching thirty, Athena begins to question her life in her mother's shadow. Feeling the need to claim her own identity, Athena defies her family's wishes by guesting on a televised talk show. When the overly ambitious talk show host eviscerates Athena on live television she teeters on the edge of a nervous breakdown only to have her dysfunctionally eccentric family send her into a nosedive over the edge.
