Well with Arielle Lorre

Celebrity makeup artist and founder of Ciele Cosmetics Nikki DeRoest joins me for a very fun, very practical beauty episode all about the makeup techniques that actually make a difference. Nikki has spent years working with some of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood, so we get into what celebrity skin really looks like, how she preps skin before makeup, and the tricks that make makeup look polished, expensive and actually last.

We talk about the makeup practices that can unintentionally age you, how to keep concealer from settling into under-eye lines, what most people struggle with when doing their own makeup, and where you should—and absolutely should not—spend your money. Nikki also shares her favorite products, her signature skin and makeup prep, tips for undoing years of tanning-bed damage, and the small techniques that can completely change the way your makeup looks.

Kirsty Godso is a world-renowned trainer and fitness entrepreneur known for training some of the most recognizable women in Hollywood and for her signature approach to strength, conditioning and performance.

In this episode, Kirsty gets incredibly candid about what it actually takes to build a lean, sculpted body—and what the celebrity women she trains are asking for right now. We talk about the shift away from punishing workouts, how to get the coveted “baby T” arms, the exact move she loves for chiseled arms, her favorite exercise for building a great butt, and how to know when you’re doing too much. She explains how she customizes training and recovery, why myofascial work matters, how she “microdoses” HIIT, and her hack for avoiding that puffy, inflamed feeling after a workout.

We also get into the side of celebrity fitness people rarely talk about: the intense pressure women are under to look a certain way, how she prepares clients for weddings and photoshoots, and the difference between getting results and actually maintaining them. Plus, Kirsty shares her own routines and body hacks, the exercise she’ll never do again, and exactly how she’d spend three months getting into her hottest shape. This one is specific, candid, and very fun—you will want to take notes.

Dr. Sasha Hamdani is a board-certified psychiatrist specializing in ADHD, rejection sensitivity and emotional regulation, and the author of the new book Too Sensitive: Rejection, Resilience, and the Science of Feeling Deeply. She also happens to have ADHD herself, giving her the perspective of both doctor and patient.

In this episode, Sasha and I get into a question that feels impossible to avoid right now: does everyone have ADHD—or have we just gotten better at recognizing it? We talk about what ADHD actually looks like beyond the stereotypes, why women are so often diagnosed later in life, and how to tell the difference between normal distraction, stress and anxiety versus something clinical. We also get into hormones and ADHD, why symptoms can change throughout a woman’s life, non-stimulant medication options, and the lifestyle changes that can actually help with focus and energy.

Then we get into the part of this conversation I found especially fascinating: rejection sensitivity and feeling everything so intensely. Sasha explains why a text, a change in someone’s tone or perceived criticism can send some of us into a complete spiral—and how to stop burning so much energy on fear, anxiety and perceived rejection. Plus, we talk about her new book Too Sensitive and the tools she uses to regulate emotions without trying to become a person who simply feels less.

Jackie Combs is a leading family law attorney who represents high-net-worth individuals, celebrities and professional athletes in complex divorce, custody and prenuptial matters.

In this episode, Jackie joins me to talk about the intersection of money, relationships and power—and what she’s learned from seeing marriages unravel when the stakes are incredibly high. We get into what wealthy couples actually fight about, the most expensive relationship mistakes people make, financial infidelity and the surprising ways it shows up, and how to have honest conversations about money with your partner. We also break down prenups: the biggest myths, where negotiations go wrong, and what people should understand before signing one. Plus, Jackie explains why every woman should have access to her own cash, how to protect yourself financially if you’re not married, when “separate” accounts may not actually be separate, the rise of gray divorce, and the one thing everyone should know before getting married.

Dr. Marnie Nussbaum is a board-certified dermatologist, Clinical Instructor of Dermatology at Weill Cornell, and leading expert in non-invasive aesthetic rejuvenation, known for her natural approach to treating and preventing the signs of aging.

In this episode, we’re answering so many of the burning skin questions I feel like we all have. How do you actually bank collagen—and when should you start? Which lasers are worth doing, what does each one actually do, and how do you know which one is right for you? What’s better: microneedling or Clear + Brilliant? And what can you actually do about chest wrinkles?

Dr. Nussbaum breaks down what’s happening beneath our skin as we age, how to address skin laxity and the deeper layers of the face, why daily maintenance can matter more than a big intervention, and what she recommends starting in your 20s. We also get into peptides, PDRN, exosomes—and why she thinks the science isn’t quite there yet—plus the treatments she believes are actually worth your time and money.

And because Marnie is incredibly fun, direct, and refreshingly opinionated, we also get into what she learned from seeing celebrity skin up close, why she prefers certain drugstore products to luxury skincare, and plenty of beauty hot takes along the way.
