You probably know her as The Bachelorette, but there’s so much more to Hannah Brown than roses and reality TV. 

In this episode, Hannah opens up about everything from falling in love with Adam when she wasn’t looking, to living apart, to building a relationship grounded in faith, values, and a whole lot of growth. We talk about heartbreak, healing, boundaries, and what it really takes to know your worth—whether the cameras are rolling or not.

Plus, Hannah gives us a peek into her new book, The Four Engagement Rings of Sybil Rain (hello, beach read of the summer!), how writing fiction helped her exaggerate her own chaos (in the best way), and why “doing it scared” is her motto—even when her Type A brain is like, “Wait, what are we doing?”

My dad almost married someone else before my mom — but then they had a shotgun wedding! In this unfiltered episode, I confront my dad about the way he approaches my dating life, ask my parents how they really felt about my divorce, and dig into the chaos of being raised by a black cat (my mom) and a golden retriever (my dad).

Viola trauma (yes, I still have PTSD), rebellious teen years, Tokyo tours, and babysitters who said 'no thanks' after finding out there were five of us — nothing’s off-limits.

Plus: we wrap it all up with rapid-fire Gen Z questions that will leave you on the floor!

Ever have one of those days where everyone’s annoying and you’re like, maybe I’m just PMSing? Same.

In this episode, I get real about everything — my progression in a new relationship (we’re starting to get over the hump of the honeymoon phase), a heartbreaking story that’s been weighing on me, and why this summer is the summer of me. I also share the chaos of Mother’s Day, what I’d do differently in my 20s, and how things with Zac have gotten more serious (yes, he met the kids!).

It’s weird how things can change overnight — and it’s a good reminder for anyone who’s single, going through a breakup, or just wishing life felt different. I went from being very single and struggling to date to finally feeling like I have a solid plan.

Want to know the secret to losing weight? PROTEIN. Hint: two eggs won’t cut it. Holistic nutritionist and wellness expert Kelly LeVeque shares her science-backed approach to feeling your best—starting with why protein should always come first.

She explains why kids reject certain foods, how to reintroduce them in a way that works, and what parents often get wrong when it comes to mealtime battles.

Are you tired of asking, ‘Why do I keep ending up in the same kind of relationship?’ or ‘How do I find someone who’s actually right for me?’ The truth? It starts with you. In this honest episode, we explore the powerful idea that the common denominator in all your relationships is you—not because you're the problem, but because you are the starting point for real change. Through deep insights and relatable stories, we unpack everything from immature vs. mature love, how to spot love bombing, and when to have hard conversations, to how to protect your heart, recognize red flags, and most importantly—how to choose yourself first without losing the ability to love deeply. Because no relationship will save you from yourself—but the right one will walk with you as you grow.
