Open Marriages & The New Kind Of Divorce

Mindy Kaling recently revealed she chose solo motherhood because she didn't want to compromise on money, career decisions, or parenting choices. She joins a growing number of high-profile women who are reimagining traditional approaches to family, marriage and relationships. We unpack the rise of intentional solo parenting and non-traditional family structures.

Plus, everyone's talking about this surprise TV hit of the week (and no, it's not The White Lotus). We discuss why it's capturing everyone's attention.

And in our recommendations: jelly beans vs brussels sprouts in an unexpected health showdown, and Mia discovers a soothing video trend that's helping her unwind.
