About this listen

 Welcome to Balancing Act. We’re gathered here today to get through this thing called life! Kristen and Luke know we’re all out here doing our best to balance life, love, work, play, family, friends, downfalls, and dreams. Life is full of ups and downs, and adulting can be hard. Kristen and Luke are still here to get REAL from both the female and male perspective, from very different walks of life.. unfiltered and vulnerable. Like Dr. Seuss says, “Be sure when you step, step with care and great tact. And remember that life's a great balancing act.”Cloud10 Art Hygiene & Healthy Living Social Sciences

    Brittany Cartwright's Christmas Confessions
    Dec 12 2025
    Episode 173. This week, Kristen opens the episode with an emotional update on everything going on with Luke’s dog, Jill, and why she was rushed into emergency surgery. She’s then joined by Brittany Cartwright for a fun and festive conversation. The two dive into: • What it really takes to make a TikTok • Holiday season chaos and decoration styles • The big question: when do you tell your kids Santa isn’t real—and when did they figure it out? • Brittany’s Christmas traditions with Cruz • How to juggle holiday travel with family—do you switch off years or split the time? They wrap up with a candid Q&A, answering: • What was harder to film: Vanderpump Rules or The Valley? • What’s the most unhinged thought Brittany has ever had? • And a myth-busting moment: one thing people always assume about Kristen and Brittany’s relationship that’s totally wrong.

    Babies, Boobs & Besties for 21 Years: A Kristen + Kelly AMA
    Nov 30 2025
    ⚠️ Trigger Warning: discussion of pregnancy loss Episode 172. This week, Kristen is joined by one of her ride-or-dies of 21 years, the fabulous Kelly Bores—visiting from Charleston, SC—for an episode packed with nostalgia, motherhood realness, questionable 2000’s fashion choices, and a dash of Golden Girls energy. Kristen and Kelly dive into Kaia’s very first Christmas, reflect on the magic (and exhaustion) of newborn life, and laugh their way through the evolution of… well, everything: - Their first tattoos (including the return of the tramp stamp??) - Boobs before and after baby - The “Raise Your Glass” VPR special—and a never-before-seen clip of Kristen she legit does not remember filming They get honest about: - How friendships shift after kids - How pregnancy and postpartum surprised them - How their relationship dynamics have changed since giving birth - Body image—especially why it’s important not to speak negatively about yourself around your kids - What Kristen actually moved to LA to pursue (and how old she was!) Plus: 🦃 Thanksgiving at Brittany’s 🍼 Must-haves for the newborn trenches ❓ A juicy Ask Me Anything This one’s cozy, candid, a little chaotic, and full of heart—like any great catch-up between best friends of two decades.

They’re also sharing their favorite moments, heartwarming stories from fans they met, and the unexpected run-ins—including one with Kathy Hilton—that left Kristen completely speechless.
