The Squeeze
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.

Chelsea Cutler: Learning to Let Go
When it comes to mental health, today’s guest is known for putting hers front and center through her incredible music. In this episode, Tay and Taylor get to hear all about Chelsea Cutler’s journey to becoming the artist she is today; plus, we find out she’s boy Tay’s birthday buddy! Chelsea shares when she first found herself gravitating toward music and how she reached the decision to drop out of college and pursue music full-time, a choice that often still feels very surreal. She opens up about the importance of low-maintenance friendships, the reality of our devices affecting our mental health, the boundaries she sets while on tour, and facing the pressure of always feeling we need to be doing more. Her new album, Stellaria, is all about the beauty around us and the value of being present. So, be sure to stay present through this episode, Lemon Drops – it's a good one.

Jordan Chiles: Use Your Voice
TW: emotional abuse
At only 22 years old, Olympian, World and Pan Am’s Champion Jordan Chiles has a lifetime of stories to tell. She joins the Lautners to discuss all that goes into becoming an athlete of her caliber, growing up the youngest of 5, and her far-from-traditional childhood as she progressed rapidly through her sport. She discusses separating Jordan the person from Jordan the Olympian and shares her favorite ways to disconnect from it all. She is no stranger to the downside of social media, so you’ll catch her pinning away on Pinterest before scrolling any other platform. She is also brave enough to open up to the Lautners about the abuse she suffered from a former coach and the long-lasting repercussions she’s had to deal with to this day. She offers sincere advice to others dealing with bullying and body shaming, what she’s most proud of, and what we can expect next from the girl who never stops.
Keep up with all things Jordan here

Makena and Jacob: The Sibling Episode
This week’s episode of Squeezon 2 (shoutout to Boy Tay for that pun) features two highly requested guests who also happen to be family; Makena Moore (formerly Lautner) and her husband Jacob Moore! We’ve heard the story of how Tay & Taylor came to be from their own perspective, but what does their matchmaker Makena recall from the early days of their relationship? And, what made her believe her new friend Tay would be a potential match for her brother? She’s answering these questions and sharing what went down behind the scenes. While Makena and Taylor clearly have a close sibling bond, that doesn’t mean that Taylor’s fame was easy to navigate for his younger sister. Makena opens up about the not-so-shiny parts of having a famous brother and how his success has affected her own identity. Jake and Makena also open up about their very own love story and their baby boy Breckon who has forever altered their lives (and their aunt and uncle’s lives!). Parenthood changes things (to say the least), and Makena and Jake open up about Makena’s postpartum depression and why she’s decided to change the way mamas look for answers to their many questions. There are plenty of laughs and also some tears as these four let the Lemon Drops into the intimate inner workings of their family.

Xochitl Gomez: Write It Into Existence
Happy New Year, Lemon Drops! We are starting Season 2 off with a bang as the Lautners are sitting down with actress and Dancing with the Stars champion, Xochitl Gomez. Xochitl talks about her background that led her into acting, what it’s like to often be the youngest on set, the process of auditioning for the role of America Chavez and what it’s like to be a part of the Marvel Multiverse. She shares how she copes with the negatives that come with fame such as social media bullying and how she combats the negativity. Xochitl dives into the importance of surrounding herself with a great group of friends whom she leans on whenever she needs a positive distraction and how setting healthy boundaries has helped her to worry less about things that are outside of her control. As if her acting career isn’t impressive enough, Xochitl recently brought home the Mirrorball trophy and will be going on tour with the cast. She shares exciting plans to document the experience for us all to see! Welcome to Season 2, Lemon Drops; we can't wait to show you what we've got in store.

Dr. Rosmarin: Navigating Anxiety and the Holidays
This week the Lautners engage in an insightful conversation with Dr. David Rosmarin, a clinical psychologist, scientist, educator, and author.

He shares his approaches to navigating anxiety, and together they discuss how anxiety can enhance relationships and contribute to self-awareness, resilience, and spirituality. They also discuss his advice on setting boundaries with family during the holiday season, and supporting loved ones during difficult times. This episode offers tools for personal growth and supporting loved ones when it comes to navigating anxiety, especially as we enter the holiday season.

Alec Benjamin: I Just Want To Be Understood
Tay & Taylor have been long-time fans of today’s guest, so they’re excited to hear from the musician himself as he opens up about his mental health, his songwriting process, and his daily life with OCD and ADHD. Alec Benjamin didn’t find music until high school, but once he did his life was forever changed. He shares several stories of how he first discovered that his brain worked a little differently and how as a result, trying to fit into the system that society has setup has not come easy. Once he learned to open up through his music, a whole new set of mental health struggles came about: navigating life on tour, dealing with immediate audience feedback, and constantly facing the pressure of success. The Lautners and Alec talk about how exercise and therapy are two tools that they all turn to in order to manage their mental health. Plus, the Lautners hear how OCD affects Alec’s day to day, the surprising cover song you won’t be able to find online, and how he came up with his new song: I Sent My Therapist To Therapy.
Be sure to follow @alecbenjamin and check out the music video for I Sent My Therapist To Therapy
