On today’s show we have actress, model, entrepreneur and mother Brooke Shields. Ever since her acting debut at 11 months old, she has lived her entire life in the spotlight. She shares what it was like growing up in the public eye, reveals how she got through the media scrutiny, and opens up about how she really feels about that infamous Barbara Walters interview. Brooke also talks about her own insecurities and what helped her stop comparing herself to others. Why just because you are able to do everything, doesn’t mean you should. Her tips on parenting. And how she is embracing her age instead of running from it, and how you can too!

The cost of being grateful. The three ways to break up with a friend. The truth about waking sleepwalkers and raising awareness to those who lack self-awareness. The truth over when the truth is not the best option. The technique to employ before any act of giving. The same technique to employ when dealing with narcissists, criminals and enemies. The four word technique to employ against bosses or anyone else who disagrees that Friday is your day. The practice of comedy defiance and the fact that Cinderella isn't the only one to attend Balls. Kelsey attended a Military Ball in college, Keven attended a Soccer Ball in high school, Poojah never attended a ball and the RGF Ball will be 'ah-mazing' but who's got the biggest balls of them all? Shuffle off to Buffalo and stay #Krisp. Bye Betches. #Kweenz

“How To Break Up With Your Friends" author Erin Falconer joins the Heal Squad to share the starting link between your friendships and your productivity. The existence and handling of 'legacy friendships.' The need to examine invites: is your attendance at that kid bday party, baby or bridal shower 'meaningful'? How 50% of those with fewer social connections experience this. How you are the co-creator of your friendship problems. How cutting toxic friends off is only step one and how this second step is even more important. How friends not showing up may be more on you and the best means to communicate with friends.    We hope you enjoy!   RESOURCES: Link to Erin’s new book “How To Break Up With Your Friends: Finding Meaning, Connection and Boundaries in Modern Friendships” : https://www.amazon.com/How-Break-Your-Friends-Friendships-ebook/dp/B096NH11Z3 Erin’s Instagram: @erinfalconer Leave a review on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/better-together-with-maria-menounos/id1320060107
