First, they discuss their recent visit to NYC, where they recreated their first date, as well as their first impressions of one another and any “red flags" they were cautious of. Natalie, like Tay, works in healthcare (as a surgical technician) and wasn't in the spotlight prior to her relationship with Nick. They discuss the scrutiny that comes from dating someone in the public eye and supporting someone struggling with their mental health. Nick and Natalie also share the value they’ve found in couples therapy to help them stay connected, and Natalie opens up about past traumas resurfacing and her experience with EMDR therapy. Lastly, your hosts ask Nick what it is about his podcast that explains its remarkable success. The Squeeze team would like to sincerely thank Nick and Natalie for being so vulnerable, and we hope Natalie’s story inspires someone out there to reach out for help.  Be sure to follow Nick and Natalie @nickviall and @nnataliejjoy and tune into The Viall Files wherever you get your podcasts.   Thanks to our awesome sponsors for making this episode possible:   Cozy Earth — Go to cozyearth.com for up to 35% off site wide when you use the code THESQUEEZE  Manscaped — Go to manscaped.com for 20% off and free shipping with code THESQUEEZE   To email us your questions or share your story, you can reach out to [email protected].  Be sure to rate, review, and follow the podcast so you don't miss an episode!
