About this episode

The episode features discussions on health, family traditions, and travel tips among the hosts, along with a personal update from Melissa.

Summer may be on the calendar, but someone forgot to tell the weather in Pittsburgh! This week, Jill, Melissa, and Kelly catch up on everything from gloomy skies to summer travel plans—and plenty in between. Melissa shares why she's obsessed with her new Oura Ring and all the health insights it's been giving her, while the moms have a conversation about how stress and trauma can affect your health, inspired by Christina Applegate's new book. Kelly also gives an update on her ongoing battle with her sleep apnea mask, and let's just say...it's not exactly helping her get more sleep. Jill recaps her Father's Day trip to a farm with the family—including the "divas" she raised, who managed to show up in Chanel. Father's Day has the moms reflecting on the family traditions they still cherish. They also swap their best summer travel tips and explain why they've officially become carry-on-only travelers. To wrap things up, Melissa answers a question Dance Moms fans have been asking: after she and the girls left the show, did they ever return to ALDC? She's setting the record straight.
