The following podcast is a Dr. Media production. This is, let's be Honest with Kristen Cavallari, a podcast all about getting real and open on everything from sex, relationships, reality tv, wellness, family, and so much more. And just a fair warning, there will probably be some oversharing. Cause I got all the power. Yep. What is up, you guys? It is a big week for me over here. It's tour week, kicking off the very first, let's be Honest podcast tour. I am really excited. I'm a little nervous just because I get nervous, actually, to speak in front of a live audience, especially when it's thousands of people. So I will definitely have some nerves. But I am really excited. I've been working on this tour for the last two months, really getting it ready. I'm so excited for everyone to see all of the surprise guests that I have coming, and I just think it's gonna be a lot of fun. And I just recently announced that I am doing a docu series to follow the entire podcast tour Journey. And I know I have said I would not go back to reality TV 5,000 times, but this is different because this is not just a show about my personal life. I'm not, you know, dating on the show. It's not trying to come up with drama for storylines. This is truly a docu series in the best sense of the word, where they are really just documenting this journey. So I'm excited for that. And I've been working really closely with the producers on it. I am also a producer, but to make it as authentic as possible, because I do think it's really hard to have a show that is truly real. But we are gonna make this as real as possible. And so I. I'm excited and just to show you guys all of the behind the scenes. So what will happen is the show, it looks like it's gonna premiere early summer, and then I will release the podcast episodes, these interviews from the live shows a week later. So you guys will definitely get all. All the tea. I'm sure some stuff will come out beforehand. But by the way, I've somehow been roped into new rumors that I' to clear up on this tour. Wink, wink, hint, hint. Even though I've just been over here laying low, trying not to bother anybody, I'm just doing my thing. But somehow I am now knee deep in drama that I never signed up for. So anywho, I have a ton of friends coming on the tour. Really excited. People are really. All my people are coming out to support. So it's Gonna be fun. I will after the tour do a podcast episode here, a little recap, give you guys a little bit as much as possible. But I, you know, of course I'm going to save all the juicy stuff for the show and the actual podcast. This tour is called my headline tour and the whole point of it is to really address a lot of the headlines over the years and give you guys the real story about what was really going on. So I have people coming out who have been in the headlines with me and then I have a couple people coming out who have just experienced a lot of headlines themselves to, to understand what it is like. And so it's just, it's gonna be fun because this is such a big deal for me. You know, this is obviously something I'm gonna remember for the rest of my life. I'm really, obviously I'm taking it seriously and I would say I've been really prepping for the entire month of February and so I'm treating it like I would a photo shoot, you know, like a big photo shoot or anything big in my life. Like if I was going back to tv, obviously I am, but like if I was gonna be filming a full on reality show, like what I would be doing. And so I've done dry February to prepare for this because I want to look my best on the tour. And so anytime I want to look my best, the first thing to go is alcohol. And I don't even drink that much. I drank twice in January, but I just think, I don't know, there's like I went to a couple dinners in February and those were times where like maybe I would have one or two, but it's kind of like what's the point? And I've just, I felt so good the month of February. I actually don't really want to drink. Once I get in this sober phase. I really just love how I feel. I love not being hungover. I just. Alcohol just makes me cloudy, just foggy in my head and I don't like that feeling. So alcohol was the first thing to go. Other things that I'm going to be doing or have done. I am doing a hydro facial the day before I leave. So it is Tuesday. When you guys are listening to this Friday morning I will drop my kids off at school and then I will go straight to the airport and fly to Atlanta. It is spring break and my ex has my kids, which is how I'm able to be gone for an entire week like this to do the tour. That's why I'm doing it. Okay. So I'm doing a HydraFacial Thursday. Cause those are great. I've only done them a couple times, but they just really make your skin glow. And obviously I want to be glowing on the tour. And then I did micro needling and PRF last week. So a little dose of that just to kind of fill me in, get my body, you know, revitalizing itself or my face, I should say. I'm doing my nails tomorrow. Don't look at my hands. I haven't done my nails. I've actually given my nails a break most of February. I got rid of gels. I've painted them a couple times. But my nail polish chips within a day, usually from just doing dishes and whatever. So I've given my nails a break and they needed it. And then also I did Chroma. So Chroma is a five day detox. I've definitely talked about it on my Instagram before, but I like doing it once, maybe twice a year. I haven't done it in probably a year at least. And so it felt really good to do it. It's a five day detox. It's the only one that you actually eat on. So I love it because basically it's a ton of bone broth and you can add protein and veggies and there's a guide. There's different levels that you can do depending on if you want to do it to lose weight or just feel better or whatever it is. I do the one, I'm not trying to lose weight and I want to maintain my muscle, so I definitely do a lot of protein. I don't think you're supposed to put protein and veggies in your lunchbone broth, but I do. You can kind of like customize it to yourself. And so you're eating, you're full. The one thing I don't like giving up is coffee. But it's. It does, I think, make a difference. I notice a difference when I get off of coffee. I sleep like a baby. I just. I actually think I have more energy. Isn't that crazy? Especially like, I've noticed I usually do one latte every morning and that's great, but if I do two, I swear to God I'm more tired in the afternoon. It's. I don't know. I don't know what the logic behind that is, but I've noticed that with myself. So I'm good on one cup in the morning. But I used to get off of coffee a couple times a Year for, like, a couple months. And I haven't done that in a while. But chroma is how I sort of jumpstart it. But I will not lie to you guys. I did my five days, and I was back on coffee the day my cleanse was over. So that's what I'm doing. Those are, like, the things that I do. Obviously, I work out. You know, work out with a trainer once a week, Kevin Klug. He's gonna come on the podcast after the podcast tour, so we can go over just all of the great workout moves that he has and just different tips and tricks that he has for all the ladies. How to get the body that you want. And so that's. That's what I've been doing. Prioritizing sleep. I haven't been going out at all, really. I've gone to a couple dinners, but nothing crazy. And I'm just focusing on taking care of myself, and that makes a huge difference. And so I'm going to be hopefully feeling my best because the podcast was going to be a long week. You know, the podcast store is a lot. It's six shows in a week, but then filming on top of it. It's gonna. It's gonna be a grind. It's gonna be fun, but it's gonna be a lot. I'm not really gonna have any downtime at all, but actually, when I get home, I will have the weekend myself. I don't get my kids back until a couple days later, so that will be nice. I'll be able to be in my house, sleep, not have to worry about making food for other people. Just, you know, being able to be on my schedule. That will be really nice. I was gonna stay in New York. My last show was in New York, and I was gonna stay in New York and have fun. But I know me, and I'm. I'm more of a homebody. I'm going to want to be home after being gone for seven days. Guys, let's take a minute to talk about arm. You guys know I'm always on the lookout for ways to strengthen immunity and gut health, improve my fitness and my metabolism, and enhance my skin and my hair radiance. Well, I recently discovered an incredible product, which is armor Colostrum. I've been taking Colostrum for going on about a year now, and I have seen noticeable difference, you guys, in my skin, my hair, my nails. I also find that it really does help with your metabolism. I'm never bloated anymore. I really do swear by this stuff. It's been the best kept secret of industry insiders for a while, but the word is finally getting out and for good reason. Like I said, it strengthens immunity. It's also great for your gut health. Probiotics are touted as a great health solution, but they only address one part of the four part gut wall and most products on the market are dead before they even reach your gut armor. Colostrum naturally fortifies your entire gut wall system, optimizing your microbiome and strengthening the gut wall architecture, which guards against irritants that can trigger symptoms like bloating and constipation. Like I said, I've really noticed a difference with my metabolism. It really does strengthen your gut barrier to guard against toxins, chemicals and pollutants that can drive inflammation and slow down your metabolism. It also helps with nutrient absorption, stabilizes blood sugar levels, and it modulates hormones like leptin that ignite your body's fat burning capacity for your peak metabolism performance.

So like I said, I will be going to Atlanta on Friday and then the next morning I fly to Chicago for two shows. Then I would normally have two days off but I will be filming the show now. So we'll be filming in Chicago that Sunday and then Monday I'll travel to Boston, potentially film as well. And then I have a show the 11th and the 12th. So two different nights in Boston. I'm actually excited because I'll get to hang out in Boston, which I have not been to Boston since I was. It was my junior senior summer and actually this is cool. So my dad made me go to Boston for two weeks at BU and I lived in the dorms and I took classes. Honestly couldn't even tell you now what classes they were. I think they were nothing too serious. You know. I want to say it was stuff with communications because at the time I wanted to. I actually wanted to go to Emerson in Boston and study broadcast journalism. So I was At BU for two weeks, living in the dorms, taking classes, and that was really, like, the only college experience I ever had. But I'm thankful for it because I did sort of a little bit get to experience college, and I did not want to go. I went kicking and screaming. I was actually really pissed that my dad was making me do that during my summer, two weeks of my junior senior summer, Are you kidding me? And I ended up having the best time. I had so much fun. I met such great people. And like I said, getting to have that experience, although it was very short, but getting to live in the dorms and go to class and do that whole thing was very fun because I didn't end up going to college. So I'm thankful that my dad made me do that. But that was the only time I've spent in Boston, and I have not been back since. So I remember loving the city, and I'm really excited to go back as an adult now. I want to do some sightseeing. I want to go check it out. But we are thinking about opening up a store for Uncommon James in Boston and Seaport. So I want to go check out the Seaport area. And apparently. And, you know, the little memory that I have from, you know, 22 years ago or whatever that was is that the people in Boston are very fun. And so I'm excited because I've actually talked to other people who have had podcast shows in Boston, and they say the energy is just through the roof. So those will be fun shows. I'm really looking forward to those. And then I go, well, actually, Justin and I are driving from Boston to New York, which we're going to film, and it'll be hilarious, I'm sure, and it'll just be fun. So we're going to drive and then have a show in New York, and then that's a wrap skidoo on the tour. So it's going to be. It's going to be fun. It's going to be a lot. And I actually have more fragrance meetings with Uncommon James. Our Hard Feelings fragrance has done exceptionally well, and so we are going to come out with more fragrances. And did you guys know this is the trend right now in fragrance, to layer different fragrances? I had no idea. So the team, my team at Uncommon James brought it up to me, and then Sailor did it. Literally the next day, I was like, what perfume are you wearing? Because it kind of smelled like Hard Feelings, But I knew it was off a little, and she said, hard Feelings. I said, but that's no. And she was like, no, I layered them. And so this is what all the kids are doing today is layering perfume, which I actually think is kind of a genius move. So we are going to create two new fragrances that pair well with hard feelings, but of course can obviously be worn on their own as well. So we'll do a meeting with our perfumery in New York and then I'll do watch what happens live and then I will come home and then I will be home for a minute. But then I did plan a trip with two girlfriends for the end of March to go to a beach somewhere, which I'll tell you about after I go, which I cannot wait to just lay in the sun. That'll be like my celebration for the tour. And just, you know, because this has been, it's been a lot of work and it's really fun. But I'm the only. It's just me. I'm a one woman show over here planning this tour. I don't have help, you know, Like, I'm over here just doing it myself, largely in part because I don't know how to ask for help. But I'm also kind of a control freak. And like, I just want to do everything myself. And then I don't want to go anywhere for a very long time. I just want to be home. I just want to be home. So. Packing. Packing. I'm also like dreading packing for this trip because Boston's gonna be freezing. Atlanta will probably be decently warm, I would think. And then Chicago and, and New York are kind of a gamble, you know, So I, if I wasn't filming a show, I would repeat my airport outfit every single time. I would just wear sweats. My. I've got these black Chanel boots and call it a day. But you know, filming really adds a whole wrench in my plan because now I have to change my outfits. So I have to pack a lot more clothes than I normally would, which is fine. I used my stylist Danny Michelle for all of my dresses, all my podcast show dresses, and we did a couple just like everyday look. But yeah, so I. That helps a lot when packing for a big trip like this. But it's a lot of outfits. So I have two massive suitcases that I'll be checking and then I'm taking a carry on bag because my mind always goes to the worst place possible where I feel like this would be the one time where I literally have a show I'm flying in to, let's say Chicago. I have two shows that night, and that would be the day that my bag gets lost. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna bring a carry on and I'm gonna bring my outfits for the shows that day so that I don't run into some crazy problem like that where I have nothing to wear and I have to wear my sweatshirt. To be honest with you. Wouldn't be the worst thing if I had to wear my sweats. Cause I would definitely be very comfortable. Alex Cooper does that. I did her live tour in Austin in September, and during the interview portion, she wore sweats. I get it. I think there is something to be said for being able to conduct an interview and just being super comfortable. I think it just. You're not worrying about what you look like, you know, pulling up your dress or whatever. I'm not going that route. I am wearing little dresses because this is a big moment for me, and I just want to look good, you know, I worked too hard in the gym to cover it up with sweats. Sorry. I'm working really hard to get my body ready for this tour. So I want to show off my legs. Sue me. I don't know what you want from me. So that's that. And what else can I tell you guys about the tour? I've already told the show sleep is the priority. It just is after the Atlanta show that, you know, the show's like, asking me, well, you know, what would you go to dinner after the show with your friends? What would you do? And I was like, no, I have to get a solid eight hours. And we're at the airport the next morning. I have two shows the next day. I have to sleep. And I know I'll probably be wound up after the shows. I feel like, you know, like music. I'm not comparing myself to musicians. Okay, everyone just calm down. But, you know, like, after a show, like, musicians always talk about how it takes them hours to come down from that natural high, that adrenaline rush that you get from obviously playing in front of thousands and thousands of people. This is obviously a much smaller scale. But even if I go to dinner and I'm out later than I naturally go to sleep, it and I come home, it takes me a minute even just to wind down from dinner. Just. I think when your circadian rhythm gets thrown off, at least for me, it really fucks me up. So I know this is going to be. It's probably a bit of a shock to my system. Like, my Chicago show doesn't start until 9:30. I'm like 9:30. I go to bed at 9:15. This is going to be, it's going to be hard for your girl to stay. Stay up. My mom will be in Chicago and I was like, because I'm gonna have a ton. I'm really excited for Chicago because I have a lot of friends in Chicago. I've got family coming. I've got cousins, you know, my mom, my aunt. There's two shows in Chicago and both shows have multiple guests. So there's just a lot of people in Chicago. So I was like, we're going out afterwards. I've got the day off the next day to film, but at least I don't have a show. That will be my first time drinking in a month and a half. So I'm gonna have to pace myself. But like my mom's like, well, I'm coming to the early show. Like I, that's, that's too late for me. I'm like, that's too late for me. I can't even do the second show. Like, what? So I'm gonna have to have a double espresso or something, kick it up, you know, channel my 21 year old self who you could pull an all nighter. So I'm gonna have to get a little piece of that Kristen in me. But it's going to be fun. It's going to be so fun. You guys know I love Nutrafol. So let's talk about it.

Something else that just happened to us because I had no idea about what I'm about to tell you. So I came home. This is about two weeks ago. I came home one day. I actually had a photo shoot downtown. And I came home, and Teddy, my rescue doodle, was in the grass. And when I pulled up, he didn't get up and come and greet me. And that's weird because usually if my dogs are outside, they always come up to my car. So I was like, that was. That was bizarre. That was strange. But. So, okay, I come in my house, I go to the front door, and I opened it, and I was calling him. I was like, teddy, come here. And he was just laying in the grass. And I saw he was kind of shaking a little bit. So I was like, what the hell's going on? So I went up to him and I was like, buddy, what? What's wrong? And he couldn't move, and he was shaking. And I'm like, what the hell happened to him? He couldn't get up. So I'm looking around and I see throw up next to him with pieces of gum in it. Whole pieces of gum. So I realized, okay, obviously he got into gum, but I'm going, okay, but is that the end of the world? Would this really make it so that he quite literally couldn't move? And so I go get water. Now Camden is with me, my oldest, and we're trying to get him to drink water. And Teddy stands up, and then he runs into the water bowl. He's falling over. And I'm like, holy shit, what happened to this dog? So I immediately call the emergency vet, and I tell them that I found gum in his throat. And they're like, oh, yeah, no, you need to come in immediately. So. But I'm still like, okay. Still isn't registering that this is potentially fatal. So anyways, they said, was it sugar free gum? And I was like, I think so. It's the gum that's like the healthy gum that you get at Whole Foods. I don't even know what's in it, though, you know? But. So, okay, we get him in the car. I have to pick him up. He can't jump in the car. Usually he jumps right up in the car. I have to pick him up, put him in the car. But. And he. I can tell he's in pain. Like I'm putting him in the backseat, and it's like a struggle for him. It's like everything just hurts. I feel like. So Sailor had a friend over, so her. Her and her friend came with me to the vet, and now I have another pack of gum in my purse that's the same type of gum that he ate. Because then Sailor is like, oh, yeah, no, he ate my. My gum. So I'm like, okay. So we're looking at the ingredients on the gum that I have. That's the same type of gum. And the Xyle is the first ingredient. So now. Now I'm like, sailor, look up the effects that Xyle has on dogs. Well, Xyle is poisonous to dogs, okay? And the onset symptoms are 30 to 60 minutes. So between Sailor and I were trying to piece together when Teddy ate this gum. You know how long it's been? Now we're guessing it's been about 45 minutes to an hour. And by the way, the vet's like 25, 30 minutes away. So now I'm starting to freak out because everything on the Internet is saying xylitol is fatal. It's poisonous to dogs. It's really bad news. It have liver failure because of it. So I am like, motherfucker, man, I can't I can't lose Teddy. I call Teddy my boyfriend. Teddy's my. Teddy's my guy. And he was my rescue puppy. And he's been through a lot. And I've known this little guy since almost he was born. And he's just like, oh, he's the sweetest dog too. But I'm also trying to keep it together because I have two little nine year old girls in the car with me. Okay? So we get to the vet, and I'm checking the emergency vet, okay? And I'm checking in and Teddy is on. I'm carrying him in. First of all, Teddy's on the ground. He's trying to hold his head up, but he can't. He keeps, like, falling over. And then he, like, starts to, like, have a little bit of a seizure and I'm freaking out, okay? So finally they realize the magnitude of this, right? So they rush Teddy to the back, okay? So now we're in the little waiting room or in a room, and the vet comes in and she says, I gave her the thing of gum that I had. And she's like, this is great, because now we can see how many milligrams of Xylit. So she comes back in and she's like, okay. So typically when we see dogs who have eaten xylitol, it's anywhere from 100 milligrams to 500 milligrams, and Teddy's at 200 milligrams. And I'm like, okay, great, great. And she's like, we've seen this a thousand times. Like, it's probably gonna be okay. And I'm like, whew, okay. This is a huge relief. I'm like, I'm so happy now. Okay. I think. I know Teddy's gonna be okay. Teddy's a survivor, okay? Five minutes later, she comes back in and she's like, okay, I'm really sorry. It's not 200 milligrams, it's 2000 milligrams. I just immediately start bawling crying, and I'm like, fuck, this is it. Like, this is us saying goodbye to Teddy. And she's like, but we've seen that. We've seen this before. But in my head, I'm like, yeah, you just got done telling me the highest really, that you've seen is 500 milligrams. And he's at 2000. So we go home, Obviously he has to stay the night. And I was a wreck because I was honestly preparing myself to not have Teddy come home. And I'm trying to prepare my kids. You know, my boys are calling me, asking how Teddy is, and I'm like, I don't. You know, I. Of course, you know, with your kids, you want to not be, you know, doom and gloom. But I was like, I mean, you know, they've seen this before. I think he's gonna be okay, but we have to wait and see how he's doing tomorrow. Well, they ended up calling me that night, and they said he was. He was doing well. You know, they were monitoring his blood sugar levels, and they were still elevated, but he was doing okay. Okay. In the morning, they called me and they said, teddy's doing great. He's got one marker that's still elevated, but he's great. And if he stabilizes and is like this in a couple hours, that he'd be ready to come home. And, you guys, my sweet little baby Teddy, he ended up coming home, and he is totally fine. He had to take some liver tablets for a week or so, but you would never know. Teddy is great. And that little shithead did not learn his lesson because he still getting into stuff. Teddy is, like the one dog that I've. I mean, he's the one dog I've had in my life that he. He's a little over a year, and he still has not grown out of that. He's still jumping up on the counters. He gets into anything he can get into. My kids always have to close their doors because he finds anything and everything. This guy will even get my makeup wipes out and rip up all my makeup wipes. And I mean, he just. Anything he can get into, he gets into. I guess that's a doodle thing. That's what the vet told me, that doodles are notorious for this. But anyways, so he has not learned his lesson. He's still getting into everything. Obviously, we are very good about putting things away, not leaving things out that he can get into, but this guy will still find anything. But I tell you guys that story because I had no idea, no idea that xylitol was that toxic to dogs. And we get that gum. I mean, I have. I get the. I don't even know what it is. It's a gum at Whole Foods. It doesn't have aspartame, because aspartame is a horrible chemical for everybody. But there is xyle that's toxic to dogs. And it also makes me wonder, if it's so toxic to dogs, how are we okay to eat it? Right? I don't know. Kind of makes Me question that. But anyways, that was really scary. And so I. I say, because I've got three dogs, I really never wanted any part of three. Three dogs is a lot. But I had two. And then I rescued Teddy because I was just gonna nurse little baby Teddy back to health. When I got him, he had a broken paw, the craziest bloodshot eye I've ever seen, and a huge gash on his tail. And he was tiny, you guys. I mean, he was just a couple weeks old, and he was teeny tiny, and I was just gonna nurse him back to health, but I fell in love with him. And so obviously I still have him. And he's huge. I mean, he's way bigger than I thought he was gonna be. But I never had any intentions of having three dogs. But I do have three dogs, and they are way harder than three kids. My. My dogs are the hard part. Not necessarily my kids. It's my freaking dogs. So, I mean, luckily I'm on a lot of land and they are outside a lot, but they still. They are a lot of work. So when I am back off of the podcast tour, my podcast studio should be almost ready, which I cannot wait to be in. I am really sick of having all my podcast shit just laying around my house, to be honest. And I've gotten really lucky this podcast episode, because when I. Right before I started, they're laying tile in my bathroom. I've been doing renovations on my bathroom in my closet, which I'm also kind of hitting my end with here. It's almost done, though, but they're laying tile. But it was really loud for a minute, and I was like, oh, shit, how am I gonna film this podcast episode? But it's been quiet since we started. So that's. The other thing is, I don't. It's been difficult to worry about the construction happening in my house while also filming a podcast. So I can't wait to just have my own space. I've told you guys before, but it was done, and then I ended up hating it. I don't know what I was thinking. It was too neutral. I just felt like on camera it would not read well. So I'm just waiting on my main chair and the let's be honest sign that I'm going to have. And those are supposed to be. The sign will be done in March this month, and then my chair's coming in April, but I will be able to start without my chair. I'll just sit on the couch that I have, so I can't wait for that. It's been a long time coming. I think I've talked about it for six months or some shit, and that's it. I'm really excited to see you guys on the road. It's gonna be a lot of fun, and I'm sure I'll have lots of stories afterwards for you guys, and that's that. Thank you for listening. Thank you for coming on the road. I know most of the people coming to the shows are my real podcast listeners, so I'm excited to meet you guys and stir the pot like always. Okay? So I will see you guys soon, and I love you so much. Yeah.
