The episode you’ve been waiting for! I’m joined by Lauren Conrad to talk about it all—from the early 2000s chaos of Los Angeles, paparazzi, and filming The Hills, to the quiet, grounded life she’s built in Laguna Beach today. Lauren opens up about trust, privacy, motherhood, aging, and why the recent reunion felt like the right—and final—way to close the chapter on her TV career. She shares what it was really like surviving intense public scrutiny, finding peace off camera, and why having creative control this time around was a non-negotiable.
We also get into marriage, beauty, turning 40, living without cameras—and of course, I had to ask her if she’ll be voting for Spencer Pratt in the election.
