  • Rebecca Zamolo on Fertility, Vulnerability, and Building MOLO
    Jan 8 2026
    Digital creator and entrepreneur Rebecca Zamolo joins The Breakdown with Bethany to talk about her most personal project yet: MOLO, a new fertility-focused wellness brand inspired by her own path through ulcerative colitis, IVF, and pregnancy loss. With more than 35 million followers across YouTube and TikTok, Rebecca has long been known for her transparency and storytelling — and in this interview, she opens up about channeling that same authenticity into a platform designed to support women on their reproductive health journeys. She shares why she felt compelled to step into the fertility space, how she’s partnering with medical experts to build a trusted community, and what she hopes MOLO will mean for women navigating confusion, stigma, and uncertainty around their bodies. This is Rebecca like you’ve never heard her: grounded, vulnerable, and turning her story into purpose.

    Jan 1 2026

    Powerhouse moms and real-life best friends Mandy Moore and Gaby Dalkin join The Breakdown with Bethany alongside their trusted pediatrician Dr. Danny Bruckner for an honest conversation about motherhood, friendship, and keeping kids healthy during the holidays.

Gaby shares how Mandy’s story inspired her to take action in her own family, and Dr. Bruckner breaks down what parents need to know about RSV prevention and protection this season.


    From emotional mom moments to holiday chaos, career milestones, and the power of showing up for your friends — this episode is a reminder that even in the busiest seasons, connection and care matter most.
