*Vulnerable RewindToday on Vulnerable, I sit down with the incredibly talented actor and producer Jonathan Lipnicki. You may remember him from films such as Jerry Maguire, Stuart Little, Little Vampire, and more.Jonathan gets SO real with me and Brendan (AKA My husband) about the struggles of growing up extremely famous and navigating becoming an adult. With the stereotype that follows child actors, Jonathan was very cautious not to make mistakes as a young adult. Now that he's in his 30s, he reflects on how going to therapy, surrounding himself with positive and real friends, and becoming a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu have kept him grounded. Jonathan is passionate about allowing yourself to grow, and through this lens, he applies the tenets of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in everyday life and is working with a mental strength coach. Jonathan also details that he felt as if he wasn't a good actor for a period in his life. He took acting classes and now feels more prepared to take on new roles.Jonathan also shares about his community activism due to the rise of antisemitic violence in LA.

Today on Vulnerable, I sit down with the charismatic singer, songwriter, and actress Hana Giraldo. She also happens to be the daughter of rock icons Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo.I first met Hana a few years ago, so it was great to catch up and learn what she is currently up to. At the time of our interview, Hana's show Relatively Famous: Ranch Rules on E! was mid-season. Hana details what it was like to be working on a ranch with other celebrity offspring, embracing the whole experience and how she stayed grounded in a unique situation. Hana's childhood was anything but normal. She grew up on tour with rockstar parents, yet their humble beginnings and creative spirits fostered Hana to grow into her own creative and independent direction. Even as a child, she designed merch for her mom. She later began writing songs for other artists, performing in music videos, and producing campy social media videos. Hana has experienced intense childhood bullying and people developing friendships with her to get close to her parents despite her creative success. Today, Hana has a serious radar on authenticity and is leaning more into her creative endeavors. Be on the lookout for a new EP from Hana!

Morgan is the co-host of the podcast “Two Hot Takes” in which she scavenges Reddit to give hot takes on the juiciest dating, relationship, life, and a**hole stories. We get into internet rabbit holes with topics ranging from bizarre to mundane to snarky, and we give our hot takes on “Am I The A**hole.” Are there two types of influencers? What was Christy's most awkward experience at Vidcon? Are we the a**holes?? Tune in now! Thank you to this episode's sponsors! • Firstleaf: Try something new this year with Firstleaf.

This week I'm catching up with fellow Disney Alum, Jason Dolley! Jason holds the special distinction of appearing in the most Disney Channel Original Films EVER. We talk about life as a Disney star and how he's been working to build a life beyond it. Plus, Jason opens up about his struggles to forge a career following his early successes, and shares some of his favorite experiences in front of the camera. Did Jason have a breakdown during an audition? Are Disney kids more refined than Nickelodeon kids? Was Christy told she might not work for a while after Even Stevens? Tune in now!
