After Reality with Courtney Robertson

In Part Three of I Didn’t Come Here to Get a Divorce, I’m joined by my friend and former Bachelor producer Alanna Noel as I continue sharing the painful truth behind the end of my marriage. We talk about betrayal, grief, anger, and the clarity that comes with discovering a double life—as I learn to trust myself again and protect my three children through it all.

In part two of I Didn’t Come Here to Get a Divorce, I sit down with my friend Stefanie Parker, podcast host of She’s All Bach (@shesallbach), to continue unpacking the painful reality of filing for divorce after discovering my husband had been living a double life.
This episode is raw, emotional, and at times even darkly funny, because honestly… what else can you do when the truth keeps getting worse? I open up about the grief, the shock, the anger, and the clarity that comes when you finally stop crying over someone who shattered your trust.
Stefanie and I talk about serial infidelity, manipulation, narcissistic behavior, the emotional toll of betrayal, and what it feels like to connect with other women who were also pulled into the chaos. I also share where I am now as I try to protect my children, reclaim my strength, and move toward a new chapter of co-parenting, healing, and maybe even writing the next book...

This is not the story I wanted, but it is the truth I’m finally ready to tell

In this episode of After Reality, I’m opening up about a deeply personal chapter: my decision to file for divorce after eight years.
Joined by my friend Alanna Noel, I share what this season has looked like behind the scenes — the heartbreak, the loss of trust, and the painful process of accepting that the life I thought I was building has changed.

In this episode of After Reality, I’m joined by Joshua Fields Millburn, creator of Netflix’s hit documentary The Minimalists: Less Is Now, for a conversation about clutter, consumer culture, and what it really means to live with less.
As a mom of three, the clutter can feel endless — toys, baby gear, school papers, sentimental items, and all the “just in case” things we keep tucked away. Joshua breaks down minimalism in a way that feels practical and realistic, not extreme, and explains how letting go of physical clutter can create more time, peace, clarity, and freedom.
We talk about his personal journey from corporate success and constant consumerism to a more intentional life, the emotional weight of clearing out his late mother’s belongings, and why our memories live in us — not in our things.
Joshua also shares helpful tools like the “20/20 rule” for letting go of just-in-case items, the “seasonality rule” for deciding what still serves you, and how boundaries around stuff can lead to a calmer home and a more meaningful life.
This conversation is about emotional clutter, identity clutter, money stress, motherhood, grief, and redefining the new American dream — not as more stuff, but as more freedom, meaning, and room for what actually matters.

In Part Two of my After Reality Flashback with Kalon McMahon, we go even deeper into what life was really like after being labeled one of Bachelor Nation’s most unforgettable villains.
Kalon opens up about returning for Men Tell All, why he says he was pulled back into the drama after he had already moved on, and what that experience revealed about the behind-the-scenes reality of the franchise. We talk producer pressure, lack of privacy while filming, villain edits, house dynamics, and the little loopholes contestants used to avoid being caught in moments they knew could be used against them.
We also get into the harder side of life after reality TV: the strange transition back to normal life, the mental toll of being briefly famous, dating in Bachelor Nation, his relationship with Lindzi Cox, and what it was like working for TMZ after being on the other side of the headlines. Kalon shares what Harvey Levin is really like to work for, how stories get chased, and how celebrity headlines are really made.
Kalon also shares where life has taken him now — from moving back to Texas to building a successful career in real estate and home staging alongside his wife, Emily.
It’s honest, funny, and full of show truths from someone who lived through one of the most ruthless eras of reality TV and later saw the celebrity news machine from the inside.
