Toxic Friendships, "The Traitors", & Motherhood with Mercedes Javid (Part 1)

Episode 147: This week, Kristen is joined by Mercedes "MJ" Javid, star of Bravo's Shahs of Sunset, The Traitors Season 2, and Realtor at The Agency. Kristen dives into MJ’s experience of filming Shahs shortly after the birth of her son, Shams. MJ shares what it was like juggling motherhood and filming, offering Kristen some valuable tips on what to expect as a new mom. The conversation also takes a trip down memory lane as they reflect on how different the Los Angeles nightlife was back in the day. As they reminisce, they discuss how they'd approach their time on reality TV differently now, touching on toxic friendships from the past, self-worth, and building confidence. Kristen gets real about moments when she felt inferior to some of her Vanderpump Rules co-stars. They also chat about this season of The Traitors, and so much more!
