The podcast host got introspective in this episode as well as reflected on why exactly she left Dance Moms during the sixth season altogether. She admitted that she loved the program and even cherished those people with whom she worked.
For the unversed, Jojo Siwa decided to leave Dance Moms season 6 after signing a contract with Nickelodeon.

She took the world by storm revealing her new look alongside the release of her new song Karma.
She expressed in her podcast, “It was tough, though, because I really enjoyed being a part of it. I loved it. I loved my friends. I didn't think my friends would still be friends with me if I wasn't on the show. I didn't know how the world was gonna react. It was very tough because it was so real. It was all that I knew.”
