It was so much fun. We talked about all the juicy gossip and we talked about just everything. We asked her many questions. She has us questions. We played a game and it was just so much fun. So, so guys. Hi. We're just doing a little pod. Oh, of course. We had to. If you came to my house in Nashville and you didn't sit in this damn couch and do a podcast with me, are you even my niece

as a nephew? See, I don't think so. I don't think so. I don't think so. Okay, so I thought it was going to be really fun for Sidney and Brody to interview me. Now Brody texted me, what was that, like a few weeks ago? And you said, I really want a podcast. And I said, okay, why don't you interview me from your guys's age and perspective

and ask me questions that maybe other people wouldn't know about me? Because at this point, I feel like everyone knows everything about me. Yeah. I tend to overshare everything. Just a tad. Just a tad. So this could be fun. For a complete disaster. I guess we'll see. Haley is also in the

She's behind the scenes. She's our camera lady today. You're welcome. Yep. We need that. And Pino's the paid actor licking himself. Pino. Hey.

Okay. So how are we starting? It's your guys' podcast. Okay. So before we get started, on a scale from graceful adult to wine being spilled on the couch. How are you doing today? Out of ten?

Yeah. From like a graceful, from being like a ten, a graceful adult or a one wine spilt on the couch. Oh, I'd say I'm like a seven. Oh, that's good. Not like six or seven, though. Just like, oh, Lord, it's already starting. I have a whole thing going with Brody right now that if he can go, what is it, nine hours in the day without saying six, seven, I give him money.

And if he does say it, I take away money. I just feel like I had to, you know. I hate saying it. Did you think, did you know I was going to say a six or a seven? No. Oh, that just landed perfectly into your lap. Yeah, and it's actually so bad that I got it. Almost 18.

And I'm saying this. Do we know for ever, there's probably a lot of like millennials. watching this for the millennials out there. What is 6-7? Couldn't tell you. Where did it start? Where did it originate? TikTok.

Do you know the guy's name? No. It's part of a song and then it just... What's the song? Can you sing it? No, I don't know. Does it go 6-7? Yes. Wow. Oh, boy.

Lyrical genius. So good. Oh, my gosh. Well, that's... I always think back to when like a joke originated. Like, who said knock, knock, who's there? Like, literally. Who started that and they don't get any credit?

This 6-7 guy is. a legend and we don't even know it. We don't even know his name or a song. Yeah. Okay. Well, I'm a seven. That's good. Not a six.

Okay. A seven. Six, seven. Okay. That's fun. What's your favorite thing about being an aunt to us? Hmm. My favorite thing about being an aunt to you guys, well, you both are like really, really good kids.

And I mean that because my friend who was over the other day said they were like, just really good, innocent like kids who just like have good hearts. And I went, that's true. And I always tell this to Sydney because you're turning 18 in three days. I always say, I think I like get in my head and I worry so much because I always think of what I was like at 18. And I'm like, she's going to die. She's going to get an STD and die. And then I see who you are. And I'm like, wow, you are a better person than I was at, your age. So I don't need to worry about you as much. And Brody, I feel like you've always, no, not always. When you were four years old, you hated my guts. You wanted nothing to do with me. You would shake and cry if I came near you. You would shake so bad that I was like,

I'm traumatizing him. Like you would be like, no. So maybe not that year, but you've always just been like such a good, sweet kid with a kind heart. And I feel very proud of both of you. And everyone on the internet, I feel like they know and see who you guys are. people and I'm lucky enough to be your aunt and I just fun to hang out with like I actually said to I was talking to cat on Marco Polo and I was like you know when you have guests come and family stay you're usually ready for them to go and I'm not I'm like I'm so excited that I get to come home with you guys and then spend more time with you because I'm not ready for our hangs to be over it's been so nice having you here speaking of you being like younger what were you like when you were 18

absolutely like the what what a mom mom's worst nightmare could possibly be. Like, I thought getting blackout drunk was what you were supposed to do. Like, I would go out and I would get so, this is humiliating. I'm like, I hate 18-year-old Caitlin. No, I don't. I love you still. My inner child is, we're okay.

We are safe in our bodies. You were just doing your best. I just was a, I didn't know right from wrong at 18, it feels like. Yeah. I was a good person. I had a kind heart, but I didn't know right from wrong. and I thought partying was like the end-all be-all of life. I thought that was like what I wanted to do.

Hey, what are your ambitions? I don't know. Party? That was me. See, I'm not a big partier. I know. At all. I have a question.

Do you think that's because your generation is so all over the internet and you are afraid to make mistakes online or get in trouble? Or are you just you don't have a care of the world? I feel like not many people are scared of getting in trouble. I am. I don't want to get in trouble. Okay. And I just like, I don't know.

I just, just not my thing to go, go out to parties. So, it's not. Yeah, you really haven't. No. That's all I would strive for. I've been to, I think, one. I had ambitions of dancing. I worked really hard at dancing.

I danced six days a week. I wasn't like a POS on the couch not doing anything with my life. But on the weekends, you better believe out blacking out. Black out Betty over here. Stupid. I feel like I wasted so much life. I'm glad you don't party like that. You are 17. 18 is the legal drinking age where you live.

Will you have an adult beverage on your birthday? Oh, hell, yes. I will have multiple. What? Multiple. Okay. How many? I don't know. What will be your drink of choice? Oh, I don't know. Brody, do you have any interest when you're older to partake in beverages? I don't think so. I like that about you. Stay sober, kid. Stay sober as long as you can. For the love of God, you've got to cherish. shit. Some people will get that reference. Others will not. All right. Next. What something people think is easy about your job that actually isn't? Oh, that's a good one. That's a really good question, chat, GPT. What? No. I use it for everything. I would say just the amount of work, travel, and like, like, I like to protect my peace when I come home because I travel so much. And I feel like when I

travel. I really have to be on. I'm not getting proper rest. I feel like I'm lucky that I love what I do because I otherwise don't know how I would do it. But I feel like it's hard to be consistent and constantly put out good things that I really worry people won't like and I get in my head a lot. I think that's it. I think the hardest part is just like how much I doubt myself when I shouldn't and I need to not be so hard on myself. Yeah, for sure. Because I put like my whole heart and soul into this podcast, I feel. Mm-hmm. Even social media, that's hard too.

But I don't feel, I feel like if I complain about stuff that is actually hard about my jobs, people would be like, you're a loser. It sounds like fun. But it's, I feel like it's a, the comparison of what other people are doing and how well they're doing it. You're on TikTok. People are creative as heck on there. And they are doing hours of working content every day.

And I just don't feel like I'm doing enough or doing good enough. there and I get in my head and compare myself. You are, but... Thank you. That's nice. Okay. What part of your success surprised you the most? That I have any.

I mean it. I'm just like, how did this degenerate from Leduc, Alberta, who I was in the class for math that like it's for kids who just aren't, like, dash four? I am not school smart at all. Me neither. I think what surprised me is just like how I have learned as I've went on. Like over the last 10 years, I feel like I went to business school. I feel like I went to like, no, just business school. I feel like I've learned so much over 10 years of like what it takes to have success. I've learned about saving money. I've learned about having credit card. A credit card. I didn't get a credit card until I was 30. I didn't know anything about that kind of stuff. Yeah. I think just it surprises me how much I've learned and that I'm smarter than I thought I was. Yeah, I'm not school smart either. Well, there's hope for you.

It's a miracle I graduated, guys. Well, same. That's why you have to do what you love because you will find a way and you will learn about it because you'll want to. Yeah. What's something you worried about as a teen that didn't actually matter later? Everything. I worried that people in high school didn't like me.

Does that matter at all? No, so many people don't like me now. And it doesn't matter. I was always worried that bad things would happen. That never happened. I feel like 99% of bad things I told myself would happen, wouldn't. Oh, I always thought I was going to, like I convinced myself I would get sick because I'd hepatitis when I was five years old and that traumatized me.

So I always thought, because it happened when we went to Calgary with the family. Yeah, traumatized. Trauma? Trauma. Wow. Tramatized. When I got hepatitis when I was five. I thought, because it happened when I went to Calgary,

I thought every time I go to Calgary, something bad's going to happen. So I would take my magic eight ball and I'd be like, we're going to Calgary. Is something bad going to happen? And it would always be like, yes, definitely. And I'd be like, I knew it. And then I'd go and I'd fall on my rollerblades and I got blood poisoning. So then I was like, well, the proof is in the button. Something bad's going to happen every time.

And I would convince myself that I was going to get sick. What about the next time? Did something bad happen? No. And never, never, never again. It was, but I would just get in my head. I'd ask a magic. eight ball for the truth of what was going to happen. I still kind of believe in those.

Do you? I may be a little like the universe is going to maybe give you a little message there and then maybe you'll realize something from it. Like if it says yes, definitely and then nothing bad happens, you go, ah, I see what you did then. Thank you. Okay, go the distance with Cover Girl's new eye enhancer wrap tubing mascara for a lash extension effect. This officially became the mascara I reach for every single morning. You already know I ride hard for Cover Girl. So the second I heard they launched a tubing mascara. I ran. And let me tell you, it delivers. It delivers. It gives a lash extension effect without me having to do anything, really. The tubing formula is my favorite part. These little ultra stretch lightweight tubes wrap around every single lash. And then it gives you that

instant length, lift and definition. The brush is flexible and tapered. So it actually separates your lashes for like this clump free look. And the wear time is up to 30 hours, totally flake free and smudge proof. I don't have to check the mirror all day, wondering if my mascara has made a little break for it. And then removal at night, easiest part. Just warm water on a cotton pad, press for a few seconds. And then the tubes literally roll right off. So no tugging, no scrubbing, nothing. I am obsessed. I love it. It also comes in three eye enhancing shades so you can switch it up depending on your mood. So I actually love the max motion black right now because, well, I just love a bold lash moment all the time. But I once in a while do their espresso energy because it's just a

softer look, and I just love a brown, and then midnight stride for that bright, wide, awake vibe. So if you're ready for lifted lashes that show up for you all day, this is your sign. Shop, I enhance a wrap tubing mascara at your nearest retailer now, only from easy, breezy, beautiful cover girl. I don't have many favorite parts of the new year, but I try and look for the little things in the new year, like setting little tiny goals and making some 2026 resolutions. Like, sure, I've got the usual read more and hit the gym and take over my wellness journey and finally get jelly roll on my podcast. Come on, please.

But this year, the top goal is just be comfy. Just be comfy. That's where Bombas comes in. They are bringing serious comfort to all of my everyday go-toes.

And these socks are perfect for that. they're cushioned where I need it most. They're sweat wicking and packed with all the features to

keep me comfy and then locked in mile after mile. I can only do two miles. Don't judge me, but I know there's a lot of runners out there.

Just because I always have a hard time with the word fame because I'm like, I'm not Brad Pitt. Before like social media, the shows and everything.

Yeah. I loved so hard before that. And then TV and social media hardened me. And I keep saying I'm in my masculine era because I'm like, I will do everything by myself and nobody can hurt me. and let's put up all my walls and I'm like too scared now, which is sad because again, it'll probably, it'll be one of those things where in 20 years when we podcast, you'll be like, what's something in your, when you were 40 that you were scared of that never, I need to just stop being so afraid.

Loving is probably my hardest thing to do scared because I go, what if, what if, what if, what if? And it's happened to me before and this person proved me right and this person proved me right, but that's no way to live. Living in fear feels like robbing you of time. Yeah. And I'm really working on it. What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever done on camera? Oh.

I don't want to talk about it. On camera or like behind a closed door where there was a camera. And there's a lot of editing. And there's a lot of editing and voiceovers. The most embarrassing thing I did on camera, camera being like TV or camera being like a camera on social media. Any camera. Do one from both.

I think the most embarrassing. thing I did on camera was probably tell a farmer that he could plow the gut of my field. I actually remember that. You do? That is pretty embarrassing because like 40-year-old Caitlin would not do that. 30-year-old Caitlin apparently would. Well, it was 29, but that was pretty embarrassing looking back. Oh, that's good.

But I feel like it was what separated the men from the boys. You know what I mean? I feel like I stood out and it made me, it like set the tone for my personality because that really is who I am. I feel like a lot of times on social media, people tell me to grow up and I say, never. I'm Peter Pan. I don't know. What's something embarrassing?

Have you ever been embarrassed of me? No? I don't think so. People just talk about you a lot at school. Yeah. They do? Yeah, you're like any, like a teacher sees where something? I told one person and everybody knows.

Like teachers at school know when I went to school because, you know, I'm graduating. Oh, yeah. What do they say nice things? Yeah. No one says anything mean to our faces. You like me more. Was it because I went on Hocktua's podcast? Yeah, that's where it started to like blow up into school.

Nobody of your guys' friends cared at all about me. And then I went on Hock Tua's podcast and talked about something inappropriate where I thought, nobody's ever going to hear this. And then 8 million people later and all being your age group. And I'm like, you're probably like, that's my auntie. Oh, gosh. Roll the clip. What's one move in bed that makes a man go crazy.

You know what it is? It's the corkscrew. The corkscrew. screw you got to elaborate on that all the men in the room do you know the corkscrew like he knows green shirt knows the corkscrew the quietest one I've not heard a peep out of all day necessarily it's it's am I allowed to say this yeah I mean it so a good old fashion hand job don't underestimate a good old fashion hand job that's not at all what I was thinking and the corkscrew is hit the top and go down to the bottom.

That's brilliant. Where'd you come up with that? When I went on Hawk to his podcast, what came out of my mouth, that's also what is something embarrassing I did on camera. What is one thing you're tired of being asked constantly? Like, what is one thing? Probably about my dating life.

Yeah. Like, who are you dating? What's your love life? But that's to be expected because the only reason people know who I am is from a dating show. Literally. I feel like they get invested in my dating life. So I understand it. I don't like when people ask me how old.

Pino and Rominar. It just makes you sad. Yeah. I don't want to talk about that. Yeah. But they're just so cute. I mean, look at their little sugar face. They're getting so old.

Go on. Next question. How do you deal with people judging you online? Yeah, I just feel like I've really started to understand the judgment where it's so not personal. If they're judging me, they're allowed to have their opinion. And sometimes it's just so outrageous that I'm like, it's like somebody with a cat in their photo and they're talking about my looks.

And I'm like, you're a cat. Yeah. But I just feel like the judgment, if it comes from people that I actually care about or that are like listeners of the podcast or people that typically like me and care about me, I would take it very personally. But I try not to because I think I totally know now where all the judgment comes from and that is their own issues. What did your biggest heartbreak actually teach you once the pain passed?

That I'm not going to die. No, yes, literally. A heartbreak is not going to kill you, even though you feel like it is in the moment. I think that there's always a reason for it. Like I think looking back on my biggest heartbreak of my life, I go, I wouldn't even be here right now podcasting with my favorite people in my dream house. If that person didn't break my heart, it might take five years. It might take 10 years to realize that, but like it might take two months.

When Chris Souls dumped me on national television, I think I was heartbroken for three days. And then I went, oh, I was just drinking the Kool-Aid. But it always teaches you something. Yeah. I think mine taught me resilience in that I needed to fight for my own self instead of relying on somebody else to do everything for me. I relied on that person very heavily for my own happiness. And then I thought, wait, I didn't just make myself happy.

Yeah. Yeah. Wow. What a novel idea. If you could listen to one song forever, what would it be? Baby, who who who is my husband. who has taken him so long to find me

oh, oh, baby. You guys can say it too, you know it. Oh, it's okay. I don't. Getting down with another. Who, who, tell him if he's here. That's actually not it. But I just wanted to sing it.

The song, Thunder always happens when it's raining. Stevie Nix. I would listen to Stevie Nix. Dreams. I just want to call it thunder, but it's dreams. that's my song on the topic of love what is what's a red flag that you used to ignore that you absolutely do not anymore there's so many i heard something even this morning i think was important

now this isn't necessary red flags so i'll get back to that but it was when you get out of a relationship this could i think this is good for everyone when you get out of a relationship and there's something about that person that he was just missing and he didn't have and he treated you like this and you don't just go for someone else because they have what that person didn't like don't just feel that okay and ignore a bunch of other red flags because you're like because you're upset about how they treated you well which i did so after my first very public engagement and breakup i went immediately after the next person who i went oh he's everything that that person wasn't it must be the right thing yeah but it wasn't red flags that i will never look past

now i say a red flag is like very controlling yeah a red very oh god if a man ever tried i just couldn't i'd if a man tried to control me for five minutes i'd be like this is never going to work i'm sorry yeah someone not allowing you to just shine and be who you fully authentically are red flag so you know what it is when somebody is in the relationship and they want to wear your skin like they want to like be you and they do everything that trying like to be like they want to outshine you yeah big red flag that i'll never want to do again i'm a star do you hear me nice go on oh let's just go fired up if you could switch lives with anyone for a day who would it be i always say probably brittany spears because i want to see what's going on there

just want to know what's happening okay if you could be if you could be in you for a day i know who you'd pick and just go indore yes your favorite baseball player yeah mine would be jessey from zero A lot of Mormon wives. Oh my God, I'm obsessed. Well, she is an angel. I'm obsessed with everyone on that show. Literally everyone. You're watching it on the point here.

I mean, I guess if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, she might. She might just get a bad edit. Jesse for sure, because she's doing what I want to do. She's a hairdresser. She has her own company.

She has her own extension line. Like, she has everything. She's a blue G-wagon. And she's so kind. Yeah, I've hung out with her a few times I'm like so jealous Yeah, that is so jealous by the way I'm obsessed with her

But you know why she's doing what she loves What? Sorry? But do you know why you want to be her? Yeah, you do, you just said it anyways Yeah, because she's a hairdresser and that's like And kind, yeah And a mom, you want to be a mom? I do. Since when?

I do. I don't know I have always wanted to be a mom You're so good at what you're such a motherly like I love babies. Yeah, I love kids I feel like you're really good with kids I love babies are my favorite thing. Georgia, oh, my Atlanta.

But what about when they turn your age? Well, hopefully they don't take after my attitude because then you do have a spicy toad. You're a kind, sweet angel baby doll, but when that toad comes out, but that's every teenager girl. Yeah. I was the same. Actually, you were worse, Haley.

Excuse me. You absolutely were worse than you? Yes. With attitude, oh, ask mom. Oh, ask mom, you've talked about this for her. Let's call in a friend. We have a question for you. Who had more, like, of a spicy attitude going through, like, their hormones as teenagers?

Me or Haley? Oh, attitude? That'd be your sister, Haley. I knew it. I knew it. I remember I would always tell Mom, I would say, I hope I'm never like that, Mom. I'm so sorry. Yeah, yeah.

And payback is real. A double whammy. Slap, slap, slap, slap. Love it. Dang, I love you. Thanks. I'm your favorite. Bye.

Go on. Next question. What's your favorite memory of me? Me and you. One of my favorite memories you're not going to want to know, but also you aren't going to remember. You were, mom and Sydney went to church, and I was babysitting you. I had to change a poopy diaper. And I really didn't want to.

Boy poop is different than girl poop. I was like, but it was so funny because you really didn't. didn't want much to do with me a lot of your life until you were maybe like six. And it was after I changed that diaper, I swear you like, we bonded a little more. And you like cuddled on my chest. And I like took you for walks around the house. And you were like really cuddly with me after that. And I think it was that poopy diaper.

And then you turned the beat around next time I came home. You're like, who's this bitch again? But that was a really sweet, cute thing. Because I was like, oh my God. He like knows I took care of him and he loves me more. And then my second favorite memory Oh you know what My second favorite memory

Is going to New York with you Yes that was so warm I feel like that was a really sweet And it was just I was always scared that you were going to be like A too cool kid And you were kind of at that age Where you could have went too cool

But you were just so cute and sweet And cuddly and nice And you wanted to hold my hand around New York And it was cute Yeah Yeah What's your favorite memory with me? Oh gosh

Picking you up from school Because you would always run and jump into my arms and you'd go auntie and no like even chanler and georgia like i see them all the time and they'll be like what up fairy but they like you ran and jumped every single time i'd pick you out from school you like i could see your little backpack swinging back before because you're running so hard and you'd be like auntie that's definitely one of my favorites because you said you would do it until you're in the 12th grade and i think you did i'm pretty sure i did when i saw you at grad yeah you've you always did for me. And then honestly, my other favorite memory was Zach Bryan concert. Yeah, 100%. Not that we think

he is a good, hearted human. We're not sure, but to me, I'm like, questionable. Uh, but the concert, the two of us just singing at the top of our lungs dancing and like, and then we'd come back home and have a sleep over and you would still rub my little arm while as we fell asleep. And it was very sweet. What's your go-to comfort food? Spaghetti and meatballs. See, I don't like spaghetti. You don't like Spaghetti? No. I do, but that would be my comfort food. My comfort food would be like a really al dante, like good from Italy, spaghetti with just

like a tomato sauce and basil. And not skip the meatballs, just that. Okay, this might sound kind of random, but stay with me here, okay? One of the times I feel the most grounded is when I do something really simple, like walking outside barefoot. Oh, God, why do I like that? Even in the snow? Or taking a quiet moment just to breathe and reset.

Those little moments always remind me of how. disconnected we've gotten from what our bodies actually need, especially when it comes to nutrition. Because let's be honest here, most of us have a cover that's basically a graveyard of supplements. Labels are confusing. Ingredients lists feel sketchy as heck. And half the time you're like, is this even doing anything? That's why I really love Kachava because it helps simplify everything. It's an all-in-one nutrition shake made with really high quality, plant-based ingredients, no fillers, no nonsense. And since adding Kachava into my routine, I've noticed more steady energy throughout the day. Because I pay attention now when I take all of these different things.

I pay attention to what works. And I just have better digestion. I feel more supported overall. And it kind of fuels your body with protein electrolytes, supports metabolism with B vitamins and minerals, helps with focus and even supports immunity with things like vitamin C, zinc, and probiotics. And bonus, it actually tastes good. I love how easy it is. I'll just blend it with some almond milk, frozen fruit, or even iced coffee when I want something different. So good. There are six flavors. There's chocolate, vanilla, chai, macha, coconut, assay, and strawberry, they honestly don't miss. They do not miss. Kachava gives you clean, whole body nutrition that fuels wherever your day takes you.

No artificial flavors, colors, or sweeteners, just really thoughtful ingredients that your body craps. Rewild your nutrition at kachava.com and use code vine.

I have been thinking about this whole new year, new you pressure that we all put on ourselves. And honestly, I don't think we need a new us.

I think we just need a less burdened version of ourselves. Like for me, I've been actively trying to let go of that perfection pressure, that little voice that says everything has to be flawless or it's not good enough. And therapies help me actually understand where that comes from and what's worth holding onto versus what I can finally put down.

Don't lose the plot of what matters in life and keep going after what you love.
