This episode of 'What Do You Want?' features hosts Nurse Mel and Heather Dubrow alongside guest Jillian Barberie, discussing the origins of their live show, the mental health implications of OnlyFans, and anti-aging skincare. The conversation highlights the resilience of women in their 40s-60s navigating career and family, while also touching on celebrity dynamics, personal regrets, and the use of peptides for health and wellness.
Key takeaways 5
The 'What Do You Want?' show originated from a casual car ride where Jillian Barberie drove Nurse Mel to her podcast recording, leading to a surprise setup by Jerry and Army Hammer that convinced them to create a live show focused on women's experiences in their 40s, 50s, and 60s.
There is a nuanced debate around OnlyFans: while some view it as exploitation similar to prostitution, others argue it provides financial independence and safety compared to traditional sex work, with Jillian noting that young creators often end up in therapy due to the psychological toll.
Mental health is a recurring theme, with both Nurse Mel and Jillian sharing personal experiences with being placed on a 5150 hold (involuntary psychiatric hold) and emphasizing the importance of seeking help rather than stigmatizing mental illness.
Anti-aging skincare is discussed through the lens of 'zombie cells' that lay dormant in deeper skin layers; One Skin's OS1 peptide is highlighted for targeting these cells rather than just surface wrinkles.
Personal achievements are redefined by the guests: Nurse Mel cites overcoming drug addiction and self-funding nursing school as her biggest triumph, while Jillian and Heather emphasize their children as their greatest gifts despite career successes.
