Description

TW: Infertility & Miscarriage ~30:20 – 43:35 — programmatic ads may affect the exact timestamp for each listener 
Dancing with the Stars legends and power couple Jenna Johnson and Val Chmerkovskiy join the two Tays for a laugh-filled double date and your weekly dose of mental health chats. While Jenna and Val are happy as ever with their baby boy bundle of joy Rome, transforming their family from two to three did not simply happen overnight. Val and Jenna open up about their journey with infertility and miscarriage, and how only after they decided to give themselves a break did they find themselves pregnant after Jenna’s birthday trip to Cabo. But first, they’re telling us all about how their relationship formed after they connected on Dancing with the Stars, where Val took advantage of his incredible charm and somehow good-smelling sweat to ultimately win Jenna over. Val and Jenna get honest about everything work and personal, including watching your partner develop close relationships with those of the opposite sex, how parenthood has altered their relationship, and why Jenna's new post-partum body has actually improved her confidence. Plus, they share advice for those struggling to conceive and new parents! 
Be sure to follow Jenna and Val @jennajohnson and @valentin and watch them perform on Dancing with the Stars this Fall!

When life gives you lemons, what do you do with them? Over here at The Squeeze—we talk about it—"it" being our mental health and well being. Host Taylor Lautner's (no, not that guy, but she is married to that guy) introduction to mental health was at a young age, witnessing friends and family suffer in ways she couldn't fully understand. She started a nursing career in the peak of the pandemic and has been struggling with her own mental health ever since. Tay is joined co-host, husband Taylor Lautner, in addition to celebrity and expert guests to further the conversation surrounding mental wellness. At the end of the day, we're all pretty similar; even those living in the lime-est of lights can be weighed down by sour lemons. In addition to sharing coping strategies and stories, we hope that above all, this podcast offers the comfort of knowing you are not alone.
