    Learning and Reflecting!
    Don’t know how I’ve not run to your podcast after loving your YouTube channel for years but have listened to three of your podcasts today and am loving it! I feel like I’m learning and reflecting with each episode!
  • katie rose tuttle
    Who is the guest?
    I was so excited for the episode with Kait and Claire but I feel like you didn’t let them talk! If you’re gonna have guests on your podcast, it should be about the guests, NOT ABOUT YOU!
  • ash 340
    ❤️
    Kenzie is motivating and inspiring and will make you want to romanticize every aspect of your day and life. I love her!
  • Bellatro
    FAV PODCAST!!
    I feel like I’m besties with Kenzie every time I listen to one of her episodes😂 this is my ride or die podcast!
  • Kelizabeffer
    Out of touch
    Talking about the election and losing her rights while recording from her 800,000 + dollar home where she lives a life of over consumption and has the freedom to do whatever she wants is so out of touch. Can’t listen to her podcast anymore because the hypocrisy is too much.
  • CTurner323
    Out of touch
    Likes to cosplay as a cowgirl then has a Kamala ad. Conversations on the pod are also pretty out of touch, makes every episode about herself.
  • Aves34434
    Forget the haters
    This is my new favorite podcast! Keep up the great work 😀
  • Alysse<3
    I Don’t Listen To Podcast To Hear About Politics
    Between the news media, social media, everyday day life we hear enough about politics. Why is it so hard to have one thing in our lives that we can go to and just unwind. I listen for pleasure not political advice or propaganda.
  • Rebeccawrogers
    Paid Political Ad
    Wish you would do your own research before including a paid political ad that is misinformed and incorrect just to try to get listeners to vote for a certain candidate. I’ve listened to your podcast and you for years but this is sad and disappointing.
  • notthecaddy
    Paid add by Kamala
    Unfollowed. Bought out by the wrong side. Disappointed
  • Brooke Autumn
    Politics
    Ugh. Would of loved if she didn’t have political ads. I thought it was a relationship pod not pushing your political agenda pod.
  • Forthegirls99
    No place for politics
    Normally an okay podcasts but wish she wouldn’t do political ads
  • Scooching in Here
    Trash Show that I’ve Wasted My Time With
    This is a vapid show in which the vocal fry will kill your brain cells. Out of touch host giving advice despite having no credentials to do so. Not relatable, and any “advice” can be pulled from any Pinterest motivation search or a single self-help book.
  • hannahklo
    Love!!
    I’ve been loving all the guests Kenzie has been having on recently — it feels like a bff catch up time!
  • saran235
    Ask guests to speak clearly
    Katie Welch would often whisper or speak very quietly though out the Interview you couldn’t even understand what she was saying. Make sure to ask guests to speak loudly and clearly throughout an interview.
  • W.m.w…
    Kenzie is amazing!!!
    This podcast is so amazing! Kenzie is incredibly funny and has influenced me to try so many new things! I look forward to every single podcast, post, and video!! Insta- Whitney.m.w
  • Sophieh2419
    Amazing
    I have listened to House Guest since Kenzie started the podcast and have listened to every episode. There is all types of episodes educational, fun, FaceTime talks and solo. She’s also hilarious Insta: Sophiebhess Used to be known as yeehawsoph

    Entertaining
    Very entertaining and a long time YouTube subscribers. I miss your 5am LA morning routines. I love that you’re in Texas ❤️ show relates to me so much it feels like I have girlfriends and we’re all gossiping. Nostalgia!

    A Petition To Bring Macy on as Cohost
    Kenzie, my girl I love you so much, but hear me out. A podcast where Macy is your cohost. Idc what it takes to make this happen, I will get as many signatures or do anything you want for the bit. Even if we could just get Macy in once a month I think I would sleep better at night.

    We’re here for you, Kenzie!
    Kenzie, I’ve been following you on YouTube since your LA college days & you will always feel like a sister to me. I love your energy and your authenticity. The rebrand is FANTASTIC & I am just loving all your content. I also wanted to say thank you for still releasing episodes during this hard time your family is going through. Please do not apologize for re-runs, you’re doing more than enough. I wish I could make things better, but I hope you know we love you and appreciate you!💌
  • h gnf
    Love
    Kenzie inspires me so much she has helped me grow and i have learned so much from her that has helped me socially and i have a great group of friends because of her and all of her advice she gives my favorite episodes is when she talks about being productive and routines because i haven’t fully made a good routine even though things don’t always work out she helps me also i love listening to her when walking my dog i love how she embraces her being from texas 🤍✨🤠
  • Salsih_Beck
    I miss the old podcast
    I used to love this podcast on my runs but now it feels a little too dry. And i also hate that she turned it From ILYSM To house guest and she changed the cover and it so confusing. I miss old Kenzie
  • lexusreads
    boring
    doesn’t seem original
  • madi bares
    a feel-good listen with applicable tips in a relatable way!
    I watched Kenzie on youtube YEARS ago (we're talking like 2016 maybe??) and rediscovered her through this podcast when I was looking for dinner party hosting tips & now I'm hooked - I've binged 5 episodes, ha! so excited to add this to my weekly lineup! <3 & to all the negative Nancy's in the review section, I understand she has a lot of ads, but she has to be a *breadwinning* housewife some how ... and the ads are relevant to the episode/her lifestyle so I personally don't think they distract from the message :)
  • Kylie Morgan Mc
    0/10
    So out of touch. I want to love it, but I can’t make it through a single episode.
  • madelinecrosby
    hard knock life
    so hard being a 25 year old homeowner 😭 … 💀hella un- relatable 😂😂😂
  • Levi’sWife🎀💄🐽
    I feel like she’s my friend/little sister
    Cause I’m in my housewife garden mom era and have her on my screen or in my ear throughout the day! Loved the dinner party episode the MOST and LOVE THE NEW COVER ART!!!!!!! Xoxo
  • AllyGraceMc
    ILYSM!
    I look forward to every podcast!!! I’ve watched/listened to Kenzie for about 3 years now & I love watching her grow!!!! Love seeing her life in Dallas & she just radiates good energy🩷
  • hereismynickname!
    Boring and Bad Taste
    The pink podcast cover where she’s squatting is so unappealing to look at. It literally looks like she’s getting ready to take a dump. I don’t want to see that on a podcast! Also, If you’ve listened to one podcast then you basically listened to them all since she asks the same things in every single episode to every guest. It’s boring and repetitive. Kenzie is also unoriginal and just copies whoever she thinks is cool at the moment: Lauren Elizabeth, The Oshry’s, etc. Stick with the originals, Kenzie doesn’t add anything extra or beneficial.
  • maddie_gm
    Extremely braggy
    Likes to complain about her luxurious life but also in a way that she's bragging. She seems to be VERY out of ouch from a normal 25 year old's life. Just really hard to listen to if you're not an influencer or someone with a lot of money and material things.
  • camillejo
    Eeeehhh
    Wants to be woke soooooo bad and its very frustrating. She also brings every convo back to herself. You can expect: kenzie: “what is your favorite food right now?” Guest “I’m loving soup!” Kenzie: “omg I am in such a soup girl era and always have friends over for dinner and always make such good food and love going to farmers market and my mom loves it too and I took a cooking class and am in such a cooking class girl era….”
  • bellanna22
    I want to enjoy this podcast
    It’s just all about brands and feels very about kenzie, no real depth. It’s unfortunate - but at least she has big name guests on. If you want to hear all about brand names and spending money, this one is for you. Mindless content.
  • madsosad
    Let them Speak
    I wanted to like this podcast, however the host just uses the guests as a gateway to talk more about herself. I’d really like to hear what guests have to say but they always get cutoff. Let them speak.
  • katx00024
    Just talk normally
    Your fake vocal fry is PAINFUL and makes it so hard to listen.
  • realmmo123
    M1234
    This podcast is so hard to listen to. The guest will have a really amazing story or say something great and instead of continuing the conversation or digging deeper, Kenzie will bring it all back to herself. The podcast is supposed to be about guests but it’s literally just Kenzie venting and talking about herself. She’s not a good interviewer. We listen for the guest not to hear he talk about herself!
  • LSaliba49
    don’t “detox” Rx meds
    I’m in grad school for social work, to hear a guest say that you should “detox” from your mental health medications is really concerning. Natural remedies are great but sometimes you need mental health medications and that is okay! Many medications that are used for mental health such as SSRI’s (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) or mood stabilizers can cause withdrawals if stopped cold turkey because of how the medications operate. These symptoms can include fatigue, headaches, insomnia, nausea, etc. Before making any medication adjustments, please talk to a doctor or other medical professional.
  • Nix A.
    Favorite
    My favorite pick me up! Kenzie is the best host, she really makes you feel like you are part of the conversation. I always finish an episode feeling inspired and with new knowledge!
  • Dara Faith
    My favorite podcast!
    I’ve been a listener since 2020 and this podcast has been one of the high points in my week ever since. I’m so excited about the extra episodes, keep doing what you’re doing Kenzie! You’re such a light!
  • livmo24
    Latest Episode
    I love this podcast usually, but the latest episode had a guest who advised listeners to stop taking medication (for mental health) and stated that detoxing off of the meds will help you become your authentic self? I love Kenzie and think she does a great job and has awesome opinions, and I'm going to keep listening... but the guest's take on this episode was just NOT it. The guest's insensitive advice could influence someone to go off of their meds and become extremely unwell, have worsening symptoms, and can also be a life-threatening choice. Be careful with your words!
  • Ida Guadalupe
    Authentically herself & willing to dive in to hard topics
    I’ve really enjoyed Kenzie’s podcast. It is authentic to herself and what she wants to talk about that she relates to and thinks are topics that are important. You can take or leave whatever you want. I love her fearless attitude about talking about things that people don’t normally talk about. She is very insightful and is truly being herself around whatever topic or person she brings. Thank you for starting a podcast. I appreciate you!!!
  • car0linemay
    Not a great vibe or podcast voice for me.
    I zoned out in every episode I tried to listen to. Almost like I was on the phone with someone who called me and now I regret answering and I’m just ready to hang up. She just seems to be someone I’d have a hard time vibing with and relating to in real life. I guess if you’re a Greek life girl or something similar, this podcast might be your jam? This content just seems very vapid to me, though. First heard her on Jeanine Amapola’s podcast and the vibes seemed off then as well, like the conversation was very focused on how great her life is. But still gave it a try… however, yeah no, not for me.
  • Heatherlee9889
    Right?
    She says “right?” after almost every sentence and every sentence ends like a question. True “valley girl voice”.
  • shaetaee
    So relatable
    This podcast is so fun and real 🤗

    ❤️
    Love the podcast love Kenzie and love the solo episodes!
  • not sure if I can listen
    Been going down hill
    I used to LOVE this podcast, but recently I feel like it’s just become how to be an influencer in your 20’s. Totally nothing wrong with that, but it used to have a larger variety of topics and I feel like that was significantly more interesting. I really love and appreciate the “in your 20’s” part of the podcast, but not every single guest can bring value to that conversation! It would be really cool to have some people on the podcast that are not influencers again!!
  • Bubblegum pink
    Her voice is literally like nails on a chalkboard.
    Please take speaking classes. The emphasis she puts on the last words of a sentence is literally the worst.
