Let's Be Honest with Kristin Cavallari

In this episode, I’m opening up about grief, losing my brother Mike, and what it’s really been like learning to live with his absence.

I share the story of losing him unexpectedly, the shock and heartbreak that followed, and how grief has changed for me over nearly 11 years. I talk about the isolation of grief, the moments that still hit me out of nowhere, the things I wish I could have done differently, and why remembering the good times has become such an important part of healing.

I also get into the signs I’ve experienced since Mike’s passing: from butterflies and gold coins to moments that have made me feel like he’s still around. And how losing him completely changed my relationship with spirituality.

If you’re grieving someone you love, I hope this episode makes you feel a little less alone and reminds you that there is no timeline for grief.

Justin and I are getting real about the manipulation tactics and red flags that can show up in dating—especially the ones that can be disguised as care, concern, or even a joke.

We talk about men who try to minimize your wins, criticize you under the guise of “helping,” confuse protection with control, need to be right in every disagreement, or make you feel like you have to audition for their approval. We also get into confidence vs. dominance, why asking questions and genuinely being interested in someone matters, and how your first difficult conversations can reveal so much about a person.

Plus, we talk about what healthy relationships actually look like, why emotional vulnerability is a strength, and the things we've learned from our own relationships and dating experiences that we wish we knew in our 20s.

In this episode, I’m opening up about the kind of relationship I’ve worked hard to build with my three kids... and why, more than anything, I want them to know they can always come to me.

We’re talking about trust, honesty, boundaries, accountability, one-on-one time, and giving your kids room to make mistakes without feeling ashamed. I also get personal about my own childhood, how it influenced the mom I wanted to become, and why healing yourself is such a huge part of parenting.

I'm coming at you from Atlanta, where I've been filming a new rom-com! We discuss getting back into acting, why I feel like I'm finally on the other side of some of the hardest chapters of my life, how acting plays a role in my healing journey, and the power of protecting your energy. Then, it’s time for a little celebrity gossip: you guys wanted me to weigh in on Harry Jowsey’s Let’s Marry Harry, celebrity breakups, who may be completely different from their public persona, conspiracy theories, and the one celebrity interaction I still can’t get over. Plus, body image, aging, and setting a healthy example for young girls.

Dream expert Lauri Loewenberg is here to decode the hidden meaning behind the dreams you've been having—and trust me, we get into everything. We discuss visitation dreams, lucid dreaming, recurring nightmares, déjà vu, precognitive dreams, and whether our subconscious is actually trying to guide us while we sleep. Lauri breaks down what some of the most common dreams really mean (yes, teeth falling out, being chased, pregnancy, tornadoes, dirty bathrooms, and more), why certain symbols keep showing up, and how your dreams can help you navigate relationships, career decisions, and major life changes.

We also talk about how to start remembering your dreams, the best way to journal them, what nightmares are really trying to tell you, whether dreaming about someone means they're thinking about you, and if it's actually possible to communicate with your subconscious through lucid dreaming. This conversation completely changed the way I think about dreams—and I have a feeling you're going to start paying a lot more attention to yours too.

Bryce and Kayla Harper are joining me for their very first interview together, and they're giving us a rare look inside the marriage and family behind one of baseball's biggest stars. We get into how they met as teenagers, the rocky start to their love story, and what it's really taken to build a marriage that's lasted through 16 years, four kids, and one incredible baseball career.

Bryce opens up about the pressure of playing in the MLB, dealing with criticism, dad guilt, and why he genuinely couldn't care less what strangers say about him. Kayla gets emotional talking about protecting her family, raising four young kids while Bryce is on the road, and the hardest part of being married to one of baseball's biggest stars. We also get into their communication rules, why they still prioritize dating each other, Bryce's unexpected love of baking, his fear of flying, and the simple routines that keep their family grounded.

We’re wrapping up my Hills rewatch series with the series finale and wow, this one got me. I’m breaking down what was really happening behind the scenes during the final episode, from the fake Europe storyline and my on-screen heartbreak over Brody to the relationship I was actually in at the time. I share what filming those emotional goodbye scenes was really like, why I was crying, and the hilarious reality of having my real-life boyfriend watching it all unfold from the sidelines.

I also take you inside the making of The Hills’ iconic final scene, reveal how the Paramount lot ending came together, and explain why I still think it’s one of the smartest series finales ever. Plus, I reflect on the friendships, opportunities, and life-changing moments that came from both Laguna Beach and The Hills and why looking back at this chapter still makes me emotional all these years later.

This episode is equal parts behind-the-scenes secrets, nostalgia, and a look back at the experience that helped shape the rest of my life.
