Summary

Sara Haines sits down with executive producer Brian Teta to share highlights from the Disney Upfronts, including meeting the Savannah Bananas, Jalen Brunson, and Jorge Posada. She also explains why she loved having Lena Waithe on the show and what made that conversation stand out. Sara expands on her reaction to discussions around postpartum care, sharing why she believes more support for mothers is urgently needed and why society too often places a woman’s worth on having children. She also reflects on relationships, revealing whether there’s anyone in her life who “got away”—or who might feel that way about her. She wraps up with her take on a recent survey showing many Americans are lacking fun in their lives, and why making space for joy matters more than ever. Learn more about your ad choices.
