Sarah Trott is a social media influencer, podcaster, ALS Advocate, and reality TV personality who appeared on season 25 of ABC's The Bachelor. Kylie and Sarah discuss her journey from broadcast journalist, to reality TV, to taking a step back from her career to care for her father, Tom, while he was fighting his courageous battle with ALS.

After realizing that there wasn't a voice for young caregivers who had experienced what she had, Sarah decided to become one, and started Sarah's Caregiver Community: Through her social media platforms, Zoom sessions, retreats, and a growing Facebook group, Sarah offers support, guidance, and connections for young women who are trying to balance their new adulthoods, while also caring for a parent who has ALS.

The two also discuss what it is like to live life as a content creator; the balance between having a brand that is so personal, and also maintaining a private life; Sarah's realization that "beauty and brains" can co-exist; and how authenticity has become the driving factor in her career.

Arianna Davis is a star of Lizzo's new reality series, Watch Out For The Big Grrrls, and an actress, singer, and dancer. She and Kylie discuss the impact that the show is having on the dance world, and the message it shares about our society, its fixed view on what health and outer beauty look like, and how it is more than time for that image to change. Ari also tells us more of her own story: She shares what it was like to grow up being an incredible dancer, yet consistently being told that she wasn't the right "type"; Building a career as a working actor in New York, only to have it all come crashing down in March 2020; and now, the lessons she is learning from the success of the show, and the bigger picture that she is now a part of.

Casey Silvestri is the Instagram Video Editor for the Washington Post: She is the first to hold this position in the publication’s history. Previously, she was a producer at NBC. A journalist for the modern age, Casey shares with Kylie just what her job entails, including: Catering news for social media and its audiences, dealing with/ combating misinformation, and creating connective content, all while remaining completely fact-driven. She also tells us about her own story, and while deciding to go to college for creative filmmaking, she followed her instincts for her own future– and the amount of money she that *didn’t* want to spend– which led her to her unexpected path of community college... Revealing to her a more diverse, and complex, society, and a newfound desire to use her skills to tell the stories about its people. Casey gives us all the advice we need on how to be our own advocates in the workplace, being prepared for the opportunities that come your way, and working with integrity in a complicated industry.
