Gosh. Kenzie is just so sweet and down to earth. Just by watching this I can tell she’d be an incredible person to be around.

Not me trying to hold back tears at work hearing her talk about the song because I paused and listened to the song and then came back

The fact that mental health wasn’t a conversation for these young kids in the spotlight is absolutely insane. Bless Kenzie and how strong she is. As a person who developed anxiety that young I couldn’t imagine not having access to therapy and being open about my mental health

Crazy how Once the show took off The producers got crazy greedy 😢😢😢 Poor girls All them .

Knowing from how much Kenzie has grown into a young woman,u can notice how much she matured and how she has dealt with these things.Loved this episode!

Thank you Kenzie. I watched Dance Moms occasionally, until the abuse you girls experienced became so evident that I had to turn it off.. Abby was awful - she never seemed to realize the harm she caused, and just went on and on, always justifying her behavior. She was a bully, and you were victimized. I hope our expectations today ae very different. I'm so glad you've sought and benefitted from therapy.

Abby was dreadful, but that the production company egged it on and basically documented the emotional abuse with little thought of the kids emotional well-being is shocking.

At what point do we start to blame the parents that kept their kids in that environment for what seems like it may have been for the money fame and opportunity brought. No one seems to talk about that.

I watched Dance Mom's from the beginning. I felt like Kenzie has grown up and matured in a positive way. I enjoyed this podcast. Thank you.

i absolutely love this podcast. thank you all for being so willing to talk about such vulnerable topics and just being so REAL.

When Taylor said she used to be a nurse and now she does... this. But then said she doesn't edit the podcast. That's exactly why we all want to marry a rich person. 😂

Please try to interview Maddie Ziegler as well! I really love seeing these sisters❤

I genuinely love this podcast so much it’s my favorite podcast your both so down to earth and genuine

Idk how we all got teary eyed listening to anatomy, it’s such a girl code that almost every girl relates to, and love how it wasn’t overly complicated and or anything it was just a rant explaining what I remotely felt without knowing how to put it in words

The moms were under an almost unbreakbable contract. It took Sia to set Melissa, Maddie and Kenzie free. If any of the moms would leave Abby demanded 100s of thousands of dollars and would blackball them in the dancing industry. Stop blaming them. You have no idea how it affected the OG moms sitting there and seeing their child suffer and they couldn’t do anything. They have spoken about it multiple times that that was the situation so for you to sit here and make them look like awful mothers is disgusting. Kelly’s marriage went down the drain because of the show. F you.

My name is Remy and I didn't do the deep breath at the beginning. Imagine my shock when I got called out by name 😅

My 7 year old and myself decided to watch all the twilight movies because he's never seen them .

So he's not really a wolf?" Hahaha nice pod guys :)

Love this podcast and series! Sort of confused why tay says kenzie is another generation, she's just 7 years older so defo gen z both of them🤣

Nice interview. Will you invite Maddie too?

Taylor was as amused by that breathe in the opening as Remi was...i feel like this episode was one of those "we weren't arguing 10 minutes ago....who was arguing 10 minutes ago?!" Moments.

Am I the only one confused by T.Lautner saying he has been a fan of Kenzie since he was a child himself? I mean, isn't he like 10 years older than her? Hahaha

Probably wrote the initial letter to her dad that she sent to her therapist and then turned that into a song with the writing team she's collected.

It is a great loss because Mackenzie was a great dancer

I felt so bad for Kenzie her own mom was horrible towards her. Always favoring Maddie

Does anyone else find it kind of funny that McKenzie name was Talylor but then changed

I feel like every time the guy speaks the girl next to him always has something negative to say about what he has to say

Is so Sad imagine Lost your love for something that you love... P.s: i'm forma Brazil, so my english is basic

I always wondered if the sisters Still get along Or cut ties

Taylor gets warm at night...*thinking* - don't say it, don't say it... :P

At 9:58 does Tay realize she's part of the same generation as Kenzie? Lol

Is there a reason the hosts are so whispery/soft-spoken? No shade, but it felt more like ASMR than a podcast… Their voices are almost *too* calming like borderline boring.

taylor launter talks so quiet i can barely hear him with my volume all the way up and you guys should make better eye contact with the guests lol

Why does girl Taylor need to cut down original T.Lautner because he mentioned he used to dance a lil to be a part of the comvo and show interest ..n she has to go with the " he can't count an 8 count!"

I honestly did not know that they teach dance in colleges.

I don't understand why kenzie went on instagram live and said that she didn't attend the dance mom reunion because "she and her sister didn't want to rehash/relive the past" and move on....but she talks about dance moms in multiple podcasts? maddie has made it VERY clear that she doesn't want nothing to do with dance moms and she cleared it up in the cosmopolitan magazine for closure and always refers to dance moms as "the show she was on" when she attends interviews and never names the show. but kenzie claims she wants to leave it in the past but talks about the show in interviews and podcasts. idk i just dont get it. kenzie shouldve been at the reunion. i also wish the reunion wasn't just the "OG girls" besides kendall, kalani, and jojo. because maddie, mackenzie, and nia aren't there i wish they had invited asia, brynn, vivi, peyton, the minis (during season 6), or anyone else involved in the show

She talks about Dance Moms in relation to her mental health and what has made her who she is today. Going to a cast reunion in person done as a media/entertainment event is a totally different thing and in no way should she be compelled or expected to go.

Imagine TAYLOR LAUTNER fan girling over you!

Why on earth does he talk in this way. You just want to speed him up, he is so annoying and she uses the word "like" all the time, just stop it! I watched Dance Moms for some time and I saw this and thought it would be interesting to see what Kenzie was up to now. This is such a hard watch with the two presenters, Kenzie was interesting, to see how she has changed and I wanted to find out how she now gets on with her former dance mates.

Why are y’all whispering
