Cindy Crawford: Shaping Culture, Adult Kids & The Next Chapter Jun 12, 2024

Show notes

When you hear the name, Cindy, there is only one iconic face that comes to mind. Of course, we are talking about Cindy Crawford. And this legend is hunkered in the Coop with us today.

We dry-brush off the layers to reveal coveted beauty tips and, most profoundly, the past that made Cindy who she is. Balancing beauty and valedictorian status, shaping fame and culture, maintaining life-long friendships, dealing with unspeakable loss, and staying connected to her Midwestern roots… Cindy’s drive and authenticity are mesmerizing.

Cut to today, when Cindy, who is just like us(!), is an empty nester in the middle of rediscovering her life with her husband, Randy, and figuring out what her back 9 looks like. We discuss parenting kids in their 20s, aging gratefully, and the benefits of being friends with George Clooney (there are many).

She’s real. She’s honest. She’s a legend. She’s Cindy Crawford.

Katie Couric: Navigating Grief, 50s Dating & Crushing the Back Nine May 15, 2024

Show notes

In today’s sunny episode of The Coop, Kit Hoover brings in none other than Katie Couric for a chat bubbling with laughter and sage advice. Whether she’s discussing the rose and thorns in her career, navigating widowhood, or how she’s shaping the future of women's health with her current projects, Katie is a vibrant force of nature.

Katie's career rose from morning cheer on the 'Today Show' to making history as the first female anchor of the 'CBS Evening News' and then stirring up (and walking away from) daytime TV with her own talk show. She didn't just stay in the headlines; she rewrote them by channeling her personal battles with cancer into a powerhouse advocacy for early colon and breast cancer screenings. Katie has taught us everything about how to turn pain into purpose.

And because no visit to The Coop is complete without some spice, we dive into Katie’s love life pre-Molner (her current hubby) and the lessons learned from dating in her 50s.

This episode is a treasure trove of inspiration and giggles. Tune in and get ready to be inspired, educated, and, as always, left wanting just a little more Katie.

Jenny McCarthy: Bullies, Beauty & Manifesting Career Magic Apr 03, 2024

Show notes

Welcome to the premiere episode of The Coop with Kit! We are kicking this podcast off with a bang as we welcome the fabulous Jenny McCarthy to The Coop.

Jenny's journey in the entertainment industry spans three decades, from her bold decision to enhance her assets (new boobs sans anesthesia!) to gracing the pages of Playboy as Miss October and stealing hearts on MTV's Singled Out. But that's just the tip of the iceberg—she's also a multi-time New York Times Best-Selling Author, actress, activist, beauty entrepreneur, and Warrior Mom.

Jenny shares her secrets for manifesting success and invites us into her world of love, joy, and endless opportunities. And how she survived getting her hair caught on fire by bullies in high school, getting her bush fluffed as a Playmate centerfold, and navigating around near brushes with death.

Get ready to laugh, learn, gasp, and maybe even drop a few "damn”s—because when it comes to being the bomb, Jenny McCarthy is truly in a league of her own.
