    Could Your Home Be Making You Sick? Michael Rubino on Mold, Air Quality & Hidden Toxins

    What if the source of your brain fog, fatigue, headaches, or simply not feeling your best isn't just what's happening inside your body—but what's happening inside your home? This week on What She's Having, Jennifer and Britney sit down with mold and indoor air quality expert Michael Rubino, founder of HomeCleanse and author of the upcoming The Mold Method: Why Some Homes Make People Sick and How to Fix Them, for an eye-opening conversation about what may be hiding in the air we breathe every day. Michael explains why a beautiful, spotless home can still have environmental issues hiding behind the walls, inside the HVAC system, or beneath materials affected by past water damage. He walks Jennifer and Britney through the places he looks first when evaluating a home, why fixing a leak doesn't necessarily mean you've fixed the underlying problem, and why dust may tell you more about your home's environment than a traditional air test. They also get into VOCs from paint and flooring, choosing the right air filtration, humidity, new construction, insurance coverage, and what homeowners should know after fires and other environmental disasters. For women in midlife, the conversation is particularly thought-provoking. Jennifer and Britney discuss how easy it can be to attribute brain fog, fatigue and body aches to aging or menopause without considering whether the environment you're spending most of your time in could also be contributing. Michael also shares what people rebuilding or returning home after the Malibu and Palisades fires should consider testing for—including ash, soot, VOCs and heavy metals—and why advocating for the health of your home matters. Because we spend so much time thinking about what we eat, the supplements we take and what we put on our skin. Maybe it's time we start paying just as much attention to what we're breathing. In This Episode The hidden places mold can grow in your home Why Michael calls the HVAC system the "lungs of the home" Water damage and why fixing the leak may not fix the problem Mold exposure and symptoms people may overlook Why midlife symptoms can make environmental issues harder to recognize The difference between traditional air testing and dust testing VOCs from paint, flooring, adhesives and construction materials What to look for when buying an air purifier Humidity, dehumidifiers and preventing mold growth What homeowners should know about mold coverage and insurance Testing your home before buying it Environmental concerns following the Malibu and Palisades fires What to consider if you live near a golf course Why Michael believes the air we breathe deserves more attention in the wellness conversation Special Offer:  The Dust Test — 20% Off Want to know what may be hiding in the dust inside your home?

    Summer Recap

    Britney and Jennifer are back together for a much-needed summer debrief — and there is a lot to unpack. From milestone birthdays and European adventures to questionable hotel rooms, family travel chaos, tequila shots, water fasts, and the realities of watching your kids grow up, this episode is an honest (and very funny) catch-up after a summer spent in very different seasons of life. Britney takes us inside her 50th birthday celebration in Prague — including late nights, 400+ tequila shots and the now-infamous jump into the chateau pond — while Jennifer shares why she will absolutely leave a beautiful hotel if the room doesn't feel right. They also get real about motherhood, letting go as children get older, making the most of the summers you still have together, and how friendships evolve when your day-to-day lives start moving in different directions. The episode closes on a more emotional note as Jennifer rereads the speech she gave at Britney's 50th birthday — reflecting on nearly a decade of friendship, family milestones, loss, reinvention, travel, laughter and the kind of friendship that can survive every season of life. Because the second half really can be the better half — especially when you get to do it together. In this episode: Why traveling hits differently as you get older Motherhood and letting go as your children grow up Britney's unforgettable 50th birthday in Prague The story behind 400+ tequila shots Why Jennifer refused to stay at a Paris hotel The realities of traveling internationally with a large family Water fasting, food noise and the fasting-mimicking diet Why adult friendships don't have to revolve around husbands or kids Maintaining a close friendship while living very different lives Jennifer's emotional 50th birthday tribute to Britney Why the second half of life may just be the best one yet *]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" data-turn-id= "request-WEB:e98deaa7-507f-46cb-b1c4-94caa37a47c7-3" data-turn-id-container= "request-WEB:e98deaa7-507f-46cb-b1c4-94caa37a47c7-3" data-testid= "conversation-turn-2" data-turn="assistant"> Timestamps 00:00 — The summer debrief begins 01:17 — Why home feels better after weeks of traveling 02:14 — Jennifer's sons moving to New York 03:21 — "We only have five summers left" — parenting as kids grow up 05:13 — Letting go when your adult children leave home 07:42 — Sleepaway camp, independence & missing your kids 10:25 — What happens when the child who runs the house goes to camp 11:15 — John's three-day water fast & food noise 14:49 — The five-day fasting-mimicking diet 16:24 — Britney's 50th birthday in Prague 17:54 — Staying up until 5 AM, shots & partying at 50 18:59 — The bill for 400+ tequila shots 20:39 — The infamous Prague pond jump 21:33 — Why Jennifer refuses to be thrown into a pool 24:48 — Sponsor break 26:37 — Jennifer and John's habit of changing hotel rooms 27:27 — The Prague hotel-room prank 29:42 — Jennifer's disastrous Paris hotel experience 31:40 — "It hurt my soul" — when a hotel is visually unbearable 33:15 — Britney's massive family trip through Scotland & Iceland 36:16 — Seven hotels in 12 days with a family of five 37:53 — An unforgettable Scottish castle experience 39:01 — Hotel laundry, packing & why two stops are enough 40:30 — Traveling Europe with kids and connecting rooms 43:15 — Jennifer rereads her speech from Britney's 50th 44:10 — Nearly a decade of friendship, family & major life moments 46:18 — Supporting each other through loss and health scares 47:23 — "The second half is the better half" 47:34 — Staying close while living very different lives 49:15 — Why their friendship works beyond husbands and kids 51:31 — A friendship that feels like a past-life connection 53:26 — What's next for Britney & Jennifer 53:53 — Rate, review & subscribe 54:10 — Sponsor message Sponsor Information Leaf & Flower Plant-based, THC-free CBD hair and scalp care designed to support stronger, healthier-looking hair.

    Why Some Facelifts Look Natural — and Others Don't with Dr. Ben Talei

    What actually makes a facelift look natural? When is the right time to consider one? And could some of the treatments we're using to prevent aging actually be making us look older? This week, Jennifer and Britney sit down with Dr. Ben Talei, dual board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon and the doctor behind their own facelifts, for an unfiltered conversation about what really happens to our faces as we age. Dr. Talei explains why his goal isn't to make someone look different, but to restore the facial structure, volume and character they had when they were younger. He also takes us inside his approach to Denise Richards' facial rejuvenation and why her results resonated with so many people. Jennifer and Britney get candid about having their facelifts together, the emotional reality of recovery, the procedures they almost skipped, their lip lifts, Botox, filler regret—and why they're already asking Dr. Talei what they can do next. They also put some of today's biggest beauty treatments under the microscope. Dr. Talei shares his perspective on fillers, lasers, Morpheus, radiofrequency, threads, Sculptra, Botox, fat grafting and what he believes is actually worth doing after 40. In this episode: Why some facelifts look natural while others look "done" What Dr. Talei says made Denise Richards' results different How facial volume loss changes the way we age Jennifer & Britney's real facelift and recovery experience How long facelift results can last When it may actually be time to consider a facelift Why Dr. Talei sometimes tells patients no Filler fatigue and the return to more natural-looking lips The difference between filler and a surgical lip lift The story behind Dr. Talei's Cupid Lift® Botox after a facelift and the areas Dr. Talei focuses on Why more treatments aren't necessarily better Lasers vs. radiofrequency—and why the treatment needs to match the problem Morpheus, Matrix, Profound, Sculptra and threads What younger women should know before starting aggressive aesthetic treatments What Dr. Talei considers simple maintenance after 40 Jennifer & Britney ask the ultimate question: "What can we do next?" This is an honest conversation about aging, surgery and aesthetics—and why looking younger doesn't have to mean looking like someone else.

    Forget Best Friend Bracelets. We Got Best Friend Facelifts.

    Jennifer and Britney are getting completely candid about their facelifts — and they're not leaving out the messy parts. Four years after undergoing deep plane facelifts on the very same day, they're looking back at the entire experience: why they decided to do it, what surgery day was really like, the shocking swelling, recovery, aftercare, and the emotional toll of looking in the mirror and not recognizing themselves. They also open up about filler blindness, dissolving filler before surgery, Jennifer's unforgettable "pufferfish" swelling, Britney becoming the self-appointed patient police, and why having each other through recovery made all the difference. Most importantly, they share their before-and-after experience with Dr. Ben Talei, the Beverly Hills facial plastic surgeon behind their results, and explain why they believe transparency around cosmetic procedures matters — especially for women navigating aging. In this episode: Why Jennifer and Britney decided it was time for a facelift Their experience with filler before surgery Why Jennifer had to dissolve her lip filler Deep plane facelift vs. simply "pulling" the skin What happened when they had surgery on the same day Jennifer's extreme post-op swelling Why they extended their stay at an aftercare facility The emotional side of facelift recovery nobody warned them about Why "trust the process" became so important How long it actually took them to feel normal again Their second surgery together — this time for brow lifts Why Jennifer and Britney are open about having cosmetic surgery Their advice for anyone considering a facelift Whether they would do it all over again And this is only Part One of the conversation.
