92. Scheana Shay Opens Up #PumpRules w/ Maria Menounos
Vanderpump Rules has been a staple of Bravo's reality lineup for almost a decade, and OG Scheana Shay is one of the reasons. Today on #BetterTogether we talked all about the wild season, her widely criticized edit, and the recently mounted #JusticeForScheana campaign. Plus, we discuss fertility, and Scheana even reveals that she and her current boyfriend Brock Davies are considering embryos TOGETHER! Maria loved our chat, and we know you will too!

91. Dr. Pamela Peeke on Managing Stress w/ Maria Menounos
Did you know women are physiologically 10 times more likely to deal with chronic stress issues than men? This is a passion point for Dr Pamela Peeke, whom I had the pleasure of chatting with on my show BetterTogether. On today's show, we discussed the profound differences between productive stress and toxic stress, which is defined by helplessness, hopelessness, and defeat. Dr. Peeke offers practical strategies to deal with toxic stress: like hitting pause on our prefrontal cortex, which she calls "the CEO of the brain." We chatted about how resilience is one of the most important skills we can develop to deal with stress, and how resilience often needs to be re-taught when life throws us curveballs. Will your day be defined by productive stress, or toxic stress?

90. Greatest Hits: Finding Happiness With The Book Of Joy Author
*THIS EPISODE WAS ORIGINALLY BROADCAST ON JUN 17, 2019* Last year, Maria interviewed #DougAbrams, who co-authored the Book Of Joy w/ The Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu, and his sage advice about journeying through hardship with patience and joy has never felt more relevant amidst Covid-19. Doug discusses the lessons he learned first hand from his time with the Dalai Lama and Desmond Tutu, who have survived more than fifty years of exile and oppression, and yet despite their hardships—or, as they would say, because of them—are two of the most joyful people on the planet.

In honor of Brain Cancer Awareness Month, Maria chats with Courtney Elizabeth (@Courtelizz1), a staple of YouTube’s beauty influencer community.

Today, we discussed how she fought through it, why she did it publicly, how she stayed healthy during recovery (Black Seed Oil anyone?), and even got into some beauty tips! But first, we gotta ask: who Could Use AB eer? Maria’s former assistant and party partner-in-crime Meredith Alhern, that's who!

They also dove into former flings, current relationships, and the REAL story behind Nikki & Artem time during Dancing With The Stars! The girls shared why therapy AND life coaching have been vital instruments in their success, and offer some beautifully heartfelt words around the tragic passing of Shad Gaspard.

86. How To Be Happy w/ Psychologist Katarina Blom
I had two incredible breakthroughs on Better Together today with world-renowned Swedish psychologist and author Katarina Blom. Happiness isn't a "state of being," it's an emotion, and just like all of our emotions, our goal should be to work towards experiencing happiness, not obligating it into our lives. On today's show, Katarina walks us through practical, science-backed exercises to increase our likelihood of achieving happiness more frequently. These strategies have NEVER been more valuable. PLUS, we share our #GoodNewsMonday story straight from @Good_News_Movement 's instagram - a traveling troubadour dedicated to bringing social distance graduation ceremonies to the hard-working students that deserve them!
