Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin are very special to Molly. In fact, she met them years back as they were doing what they do best: organizing. Cut to “Get Organized with The Home Edit,” which Molly produced, and these two women have easily become the most famous (and best) organizers on the planet. Given we are fully in spring, we figured why not have them on to talk all things spring cleaning. It’s a dreaded subject for some but they offer fun tools to make the process less daunting. From the pantry to the closet to the difference between editing and separating, if you’re in the need of a spruce up, this episode is for you.

Everything Molly and Emese Are Using, Buying, Eyeing for Spring + Their Beauty and Fitness Routines, Treatments They’re Trying, Travel Plans, and More

How many times have you had a stomach ache? Or gotten heartburn? Or had discomfort relating to your digestion but couldn’t identify what it is? These are some of the many reasons why we wanted to sit down with gastroenterologist (and Molly’s own) Dr. Ari Nowain to talk all things gastro issues. We get into bloating, IBS, acid reflux, heartburn, and more. We talk about the right time to get a colonoscopy, why inflammation isn’t one-size-fits-all, and the truth about probiotics (you might be surprised by this one). If you’ve had questions about your gut, digestion, or anything pertaining to gastro, this episode is for you.

Hot Girls Have Stomach Issues: Everything You Need to Know About Heartburn, IBS, Bloating, Disease Prevention, Inflammation, and More with Gastroenterologist Dr. Ari Nowain

We’re back for Part 2 with Reesa Teesa. If you haven’t yet listened to Part 1, stop what you’re doing before you hit play on this episode. By the way, we recorded this from Austin during SXSW. And, might we add, you’re looking at the winner of the iHeart Radio Award for Best Beauty and Fashion Podcast. It’s been a good few weeks to say the least. As we conclude our sit-down with Reesa Teesa, she looks back at her series and what she would have done differently had she known it would blow up. We look ahead and discuss trusting again and what’s next for her (Oprah, are you listening?). We also obviously had to tap her on some of her favorite beauty products. This truly has been one of our favorite episodes ever so we hope you love it as much as we do.

Reesa Teesa Breaks the Internet, Reliving Her 50-Part TikTok Series, How She’s Building Trust Back, Her Beauty Favorites, and What’s Next (PART 2)

It was just a few weeks ago when Reesa Teesa emerged as one of the biggest stars on TikTok for her 50-part series, ‘Who TF Did I Marry’ which recounts the events that include meeting, marrying, and divorcing her ex-husband. Cut to over 400 million views later (that’s more watches than the Super Bowl) and Reesa Teesa (real name: Tareasa Johnson) has officially become an overnight sensation. We loved the idea of breaking down relationship red flags and thought who better to bring on than marriage therapist and author of ‘The Origins of You,’ Vienna Pharaon. We touch on all the United Nations of red flags from lying to gaslighting and so much more. Whether you already love Reesa or don’t know her yet, fasten your seatbelts and buckle up, this episode is for you.
