If it feels like news headlines are getting more and more terrifying with each passing day, you aren’t alone. To try to get some help making sense of it all, Sophia is reaching across the proverbial aisle to conservative TV commentator, author, and nationally syndicated columnist S.E. Cupp.

Cupp was raised in a conservative home and then rose the ranks in conservative media, and she’s courageous enough to state that her values don't align with the current administration. When she first pushed back, she went from a right-wing media darling to being labeled a traitor, and today she shares her story, including the toll the threats and vitriol took on her mental health, ultimately leading to a breakdown.

Plus, S.E. gets unexpectedly emotional talking about what inspired her new podcast 'Off the Cupp,' shares her advice on what to do when feeling hopeless, and her work in progress.
