Coming In Hot

Caroline and her husband John celebrate their 20-year anniversary on “Coming In Hot” by walking through a psychologist’s six stages of marriage and sharing what they’ve lived through so far, focusing on the honeymoon, realization, and rebellion stages. They openly discuss early red flags they ignored, especially around money, family dynamics, expectations, and communication, plus moments when the “rose-colored glasses” came off, including John getting fired and how he handled it. They talk about power struggles after kids, feeling controlled or resentful, and how having purpose, boundaries, lists, and honest conversations helped them rebuild connection. They share practical ways they stayed close—weekly date nights, travel, trying new things, and showing affection—while emphasizing respect, trust, patience, and not trying to change each other, ending with a playful lightning round and advice for making marriage last.🎵Music Credit Nikka Costa – “It’s Just Love” Follow Caroline:IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.carolineFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcarolineSearch Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/Shop Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotPlease note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, Caroline chats with board-certified OB-GYN and bestselling author Dr. Mary Claire Haver about why menopause and perimenopause are often misunderstood and under-taught in medicine, and why “just getting older” is not an acceptable diagnosis. Dr. Haver shares how she shifted from university medicine into opening a menopause clinic after COVID, and explains that menopause is a whole-body event with estrogen receptors throughout the body, affecting sleep, mood, brain fog, palpitations, vertigo, skin, and more. She breaks down the stages of perimenopause and menopause, describing hormone “chaos” as eggs decline, and stresses prioritizing sleep, resistance training, protein, fiber, and reducing processed foods and sugar to fight inflammation and prevent frailty. They discuss careful, monitored use of GLP-1s, skepticism about unregulated peptides/NAD, Dr. Haver’s own hormone regimen, and where to find menopause care. If you or someone you know is in the age of menopause, pre, during and post, this episode is for you!🎵Music Credit Nikka Costa – “It’s Just Love” Find Dr. Mary Claire Havermaryclairewellness.comIG: instagram.com/drmaryclaireTikTok: tiktok.com/@drmaryclaireThe 'Pause Life: thepauselife.comFollow Caroline:Podcast: https://being-caroline.com/podcast/IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.carolineFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcarolineSearch Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/Shop Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotPlease note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, Caroline sits down with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Amanda Frances and chats about money, manifestation, why women are taught to avoid talking about finances, and of course her time on RHOBH. They discuss shame, financial literacy, desire-driven motivation, and “inspired action” as a blend of mindset and practical steps. Amanda describes culture shock joining Housewives without knowing the “rules,” feeling emotionally unsafe amid conflict, and dealing with online trolling, and doing phone detoxes. She discusses what she would do if she were on the show again, talks about gratitude practices, shares her background leaving a cult and redefining faith, and previews her books Rich as F*ck and Godly as F*ck. Be sure to check out this episode to get inspired, laugh and learn the reality of this “housewife.”🎵 Music Credit Nikka Costa – “It’s Just Love”Find Amanda- amandafrances.com- IG: instagram.com/xoamandafrances- YouTube: www.youtube.com/@xoAmandaFrances - App: Amanda Frances Money QueenFollow Caroline:- IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/- TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.caroline- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcaroline- Search Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/- Shop Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotPlease note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Ever wonder why some people thrive on drama? In this episode, Caroline welcomes licensed Clinical Psychologist Dr. Scott Lyons, author of “Addicted to Drama” and host of “The Gently Used Human,” to talk about toxic mom groups, gossip, and why drama can feel addictive. Using examples like “drama bonding” in groups, he explains how stress can become a habit that brings connection and even chemical pain relief, and why calm can feel unsafe for some people. They discuss how hormones (including menopause) can increase dysregulation, how partners can respond without adding “logs to the fire,” and why social media fuels attention-hungry conflict and competitive victimhood. Dr. Lyons shares practical regulation tools like walking, shaking, reading at night instead of scrolling, pausing before replying, and “unsetting the table” to stop mental spirals, and he shares where to find his work, including Embody Lab and his upcoming “Hot Seat Therapy” show.🎵Music Credit Nikka Costa – “It’s Just Love” Find Dr Scott Lyons: - Website: drscottlyons.com- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drscottlyons - Platform: theembodylab.comFollow Caroline:- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/- TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.caroline- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcaroline- Search Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/- Shop New Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotPlease note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, Caroline hosts renowned plastic surgeon and star of Botched, Dr. Terry Dubrow, for a “hard questions” episode and some laughs. He educates us on Ozempic/GLP-1 drugs, microdosing, and newer peptide options like tirzepatide and the not-yet–FDA-approved “retatrutide,” which he says may help lower inflammation and support “preservation longevity” while AI accelerates disease breakthroughs. They discuss fears around AI, his belief that people should learn to use it, and his warning about unregulated online/black-market compounds. In beauty, Dubrow urges women to dial back fillers, avoid “Ozempic face panic,” be cautious with deep plane facelifts, and invest more in consistent energy devices (lasers/ultrasound/radiofrequency) rather than extreme procedures. He shares lessons from Botched and Plastic Surgery Rewind, including turning down risky patients, a memorable case removing “concrete” facial injections by reducing—not fully removing—masses, and how he and his wife test wellness trends on their “Doctor and Mrs. Guinea Pig” channel. He also covers peptides uncertainty, cycling use if someone insists, creatine findings, daily visualization, and marriage rules for handling conflict.Find Dr Dubrow - Website: www.drdubrow.com- Instagram: @drdubrow- TikTok: @drterrydubrow- Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind on E! and PeacockFollow Caroline:- Podcast: https://being-caroline.com/podcast/- IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/- TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.caroline- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcaroline- Search Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/- Shop New Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotPlease note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

In this episode, Caroline shares why she thinks the PTA can be exhausting and why she finally quit. She explains how her immigrant parents (Cuban and Venezuelan) didn’t understand the American school system and rarely showed up to her school events, which hurt her as a kid. As a mom now, she became extremely overprotective and tried to do everything her parents didn’t do, including volunteering nonstop. She describes how she got pressured into school volunteer roles—art docent (even though she couldn’t draw), then room parent, then joining the board and leading the school’s biggest fundraiser gala. The situation escalated when she was called into a meeting because of an Instagram story where she expressed frustration about how a school issue was handled (without naming the school or teachers). She pushed back hard, questioned why staff were watching and sharing her content, and decided to leave the PTA and eventually the school. She reflects that the PTA politics, gossip, and pressure made her crankier and less happy, and that quitting made her a better mom and wife because her time with her kids became higher quality. She encourages listeners do what they love and stop dimming their light to fit in, and prioritize their own happiness while still being a good mom.Find Caroline: IG: https://www.instagram.com/shop.with.caroline/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@shop.with.carolineFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingcarolineSearch Looks: https://www.shop-with-caroline.com/Shop Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/coming-in-hotMusic Credit: Nikka Costa – “It’s Just Love”Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
