Summary
In this week’s episode, Tay sits down with model, TV personality, and former ICU nurse Ciara Miller! Ciara opens up about her time on Summer House and teases what fans can expect from the new season. She also shares what her experience on The Traitors was really like behind the scenes and how filming it differed from being on Summer House. She opens up about navigating public opinion, handling hate, and the boundaries she sets with social media to protect her mental health. Ciara takes us back to the beginning of her nursing career — why she started in the ICU, what drew her to that high-pressure environment, and how she ultimately faced burnout. She talks candidly about going back and forth between nursing and reality TV, the moment she knew she was ready to step away from bedside care, and the role therapy, including ketamine therapy, has played in her healing.
