Savannah Louie, the winner of Survivor 49 and season 50 competitor, joins Victoria to unpack what it really takes to make it through one of the most intense experiences on television. As fellow super fans, Victoria and Savannah dive into the reality of playing the game, from strategy and Tribal Council decisions to what it’s actually like having cameras on you 24/7 while filming. Savannah also opens up for the first time about something viewers rarely hear about: how the extreme conditions of the show affected her body image and relationship with food after the game. She shares her experience rebuilding trust with herself through intuitive eating and what that healing process looked like beyond Survivor. Tune in for a candid conversation about the psychology of the game, life after reality TV, and the personal challenges that come with one of the most intense shows on television!

No one understands what it takes to navigate life and career transitions better than NFL veteran, sports broadcast host, and content creator Isaac Rochell. He joins Vic to get real about navigating life after football, redefining who you are beyond your job, and confronting the food and body image struggles men rarely talk about. The former Notre Dame standout opens up about life in the league, from tough coaching dynamics and the constant fear of getting cut to walking away from the NFL and building a new career in media. Vic and Isaac also dive into supporting a wildly successful partner (and being proudly known as “Mr. Kuch”), becoming a girl dad of two, and the GLP-1 conversation entering sports culture. Tune in for a grounded, transparent conversation about athlete identity, career reinvention, and healing your relationship with food.
