Sarah Hoover is on the podcast and just wow. Conversations like these are the best thing about podcasting. Sarah gave birth and thought "Oh my god, what have I done?" Becoming a mother is insane and we need to talk about the insane parts. You have permission to complain. You can rant and moan about hard things and still be completely and wildly grateful for your life. Sarah is brilliant and relatable and calming and hilarious. Her memoir The Motherload: Episodes From The Brink Of Motherhood comes out January 14th.

This episode includes discussions about sensitive topics, including suicidal thoughts and sexual assault. Please take care of yourself while listening.

It was such a pleasure and I am absolutely certain that after listening to this episode, everyone will want Tracy as their guide.

Sarah Creal is THE expert when it comes to makeup. She was a force behind Prada Beauty, Bobbi Brown, and Victoria Beckham Beauty. After decades in the business, Sarah had a lightbulb moment - who was talking to her? The products being developed were all for women in their 20s and 30s and did not require the performance needed for all women. At 54, she has made it her mission to fill this gap and created Sarah Creal Beauty, a line of luxury essentials across skin care and makeup with a focus on wear, repair, and moisturization for women 40 and over. We get into the nitty gritty of skincare, makeup, and ingredients - she has the best simple makeup tips like how to test concealers and picking the right mascara. Her passion for her work is obvious and it was such a pleasure talking to her and learning from her.

This one is pure fun - all over the place and I loved every minute. Jenny Mollen is a good time and her life story is as interesting as it is entertaining. She has lived many lives, leans into the things she's good at, and is unapologetically herself. We get into her early romantic escapades in Germany, being a lifelong thespian, and the story behind how she first started dating Jason Biggs. She's a writer, actress, mom of 2 boys, and I want to start reading her newest juicy novel City Of Likes asap!

It is such a treat to have Erin Lichy of The Real Housewives of New York on the pod today! I love the new RHONY and had so much fun chatting with Erin. We get into all of it - raising three kids in the city, the challenges of reality tv fights with friends, what it's like to be on tv and put your life out there - hard times and good. Erin enlightens me on all the great things about Mezcal and her journey to starting a successful Mezcal brand Mezcalum. We touch on grief, getting through the hardest of times, the annoyances of kids bedtime, and lots more. A huge thank you to Erin!

Hello, it's nice to be here. I've had a big couple days in NY for the opening of The High Confectionary Pop-Up in Noho. It's just me today, from my cozy hotel called Fouqets. I did a little run through all the new fun products that we just launched for The High Confectionary. It's been a grand mix of emotions, and as always, thank you for being here with me.

This one is full of juice for you. We start with the low-level tension that was bubbling between us over the weekend - things that happened, talking through the annoyances, and hearing each other out. Sonny is starting to have homework and we weigh the pros and cons of different kinds of reward systems. A brief surrogate update, pop culture palette cleanser - what Timmy thinks of the Monsters Menendez Bros show, Stassi agreeing with us about JLO, and a live taste test of Timmy's brisket during which I'm covered with a towel on the white couch. It's fun!
