[Narrator] Previously on Teen Mom Family Reunion.
Whoo!
[Taylor] Holy [bleep].
[Maci] Like, do you really jump in?
-Yeah. -What?
I don't know if it's the healing powers in the mud,
but I feel like I haven't had this much fun with Taylor
in a very long time.
Cheyenne and Mackenzie went through some things in the past.
Now is the perfect time to bring it up to Cheyenne.
She is coming and she's bringing her new boyfriend.
Oh, hey! The new people!
The past two years, I've learned a lot
and I think I had to become more self-aware.
If you're gonna take accountability,
you can't half-ass this one.
To understand that your words had power.

-[Khesanio] Hello. -Que calor.
Que?
So my Spanish word today is que calor,
which means it's hot.
It applies because it's hot. It's always hot here.
Que calor.
Uh, I have no idea what that means.
It means it's hot.
[music]
Chloe's having more problems at the new school.
-[Sean] Why? -I don't know.
What's going on?
Boop. With us being gone, we kind of knew that there
would be some bumps in the road. Didn't expect it to be the bird.
At least she wasn't dropping F-bombs and cursing.
[music]
It's just like, knotted up here.
I put so much product in it yesterday.
It's very hard to watch.
I had the talk with Cheyenne.
I said something ignorant, tried to fix it,
and I did a lot of damage. And I'm sorry.
Oh, I'm good. I don't need you to do anything.
[Mackenzie] I felt worse after that apology,
but I felt better that I got it off my chest.
But it's still difficult kind of just like, awkward.
I am just going to try to have the best experience I can.
Tomorrow we're doing yoga on the rooftop.
-So no running? -Not tomorrow.
-Tomorrow's Sunday. -Yes!
We gotta talk to Jesus tomorrow.
Okay.
[music]
Damn, my feet are hot.
Y'all wanna know what we're doing today?
[Khesanio] Please.
We have set up an outdoor activity for everyone.
-Outdoor competition. -Well, yeah.
Everything's a competition, babe.
We are going to a place called Echo Carta.
It's like an obstacle course.
-[Maci] Go get ready. -[Tyler] Que calor.
[music]
[Zach] What's going on?
I feel like I need to do better.
With what?
Giving people grace.
After everything that happened with Mackenzie,
I wanna put this to rest.
-I'm trying to give her-- -The benefit of the doubt?
Yeah.
It's definitely been awkward since Mackenzie came.
And I don't want this trip to be awkward for anyone.
At this point, let's just leave the drama in the past.
-Have you tried that? -No. Why?
[music]
-You like it? -No. I was just asking.
Oh, you want me to try it first?
[Kayla] This is cute.
Want some of this? It's good.
[Kayla] Hello.
No way!
[Zach] I was like, Who the [bleep] is that?
My name is Kayla Sessler. You might know me from
Teen Mom: Young and Pregnant.
There you go.
[Woman] You look beautiful.
Yes.
Our last season of Family Reunion.
I don't want my kids to feel that like, unstableness
that I felt growing up.
-Did you dye your hair darker? -I did.
[Cheyenne] We have another new person in the house.
Kayla was definitely invited to this trip,
but I just didn't know when she was coming.
Since last time we did Teen Mom: Family Reunion,
Kayla and I have been friends.
I definitely think having Kayla brings a new energy.
-You came by yourself? -No, so my boyfriend's coming.
-You have a boyfriend? -I've kept it a secret.
I have a new boyfriend. His name is Ryan.
Ryan and I actually dated back in high school.
Now we're trying again with the relationship.
Where is he?
So he is on a work trip. He has his CDLs.
-His CDL? -Yeah.
[Zach] That's dope.
He's flying in like, right now.
I would say Ryan and I's relationship is not strong
at all right now.
I would say we're on our last straw.
We have a lot of [bleep] we need to work through.
But he just keeps avoiding it.
I hope you guys like him.
Well, if you like him and he treats you well,
then we'll like him.
I think Ryan and I could really benefit from the coaching.
We need to learn how to communicate
and be open and vulnerable.
And both of us have a hard time doing that.
Are you guys the only ones here?
No, everybody's upstairs. We'll bring you up.
[Zach] Yo! Everybody out y'all rooms!
Quick surprise.
Hey!
-Hey. -How are you?
-Hi, Kayla! -[Kayla] Hi.
Oh, my gosh, I'm blind. I don't have my glasses.
Kayla is here. I love Kayla.
I started on Young and Pregnant.
And we have been friends ever since then.
Do you know her?
It was like, dun-dun-dun-a-dun, someone has arrived.
And like, no one did that for me.
Everyone was excited and I'm like, "Who is this?"
Hi. I've never met you. I'm Kayla.
-Nice to meet you. -It's nice to meet you.
Are you on a different show?
-I was on Young and Pregnant. -Oh, got it. Okay.
I don't know who she is at all.
[Kayla] No, Ryan's coming.
[Kayla] Yeah.
-Are you and Luke okay? -Co-parents? We're better now.
Luke is the father of my two kids.
The last team on Family Reunion.
Luke and I's relationship was just very toxic.
She knows what happened to Isaiah.
And she's trying to [bleep] cover that [bleep] up.
This is your [bleep] mom! Check the bitch!
But since then, we're in a better place,
but it's a rollercoaster.
It's good one week, bad the next.
How does he feel about you being with Ryan?
I don't think he loves it, but he doesn't know
I came here with Ryan. I didn't tell him because
I was worried he wouldn't want to watch the kids, you know?
[Maci] This whole situation definitely sounds sketchy.
I have questions about that.
So he thinks you came by yourself?
Yeah. It'll be fine.
It's a complicated relationship because
I was cheating on Luke with Ryan.
You know that I don't like Ryan.
I like to talk to him. He's comforting to me.
Like, he give good advice.
That ain't the only good thing he gives you.
Because of that, I feel like now it's brought a lot of distrust
into mine and Ryan's relationship.
And it's something I wanna work on.
I'm gonna try and find my luggage.
I think she cheated on Luke with Ryan,
but I think she was with Ryan before Luke.
We'll see you in a minute.
[Kayla] Okay. Thank you.
And Ryan cheated on his girlfriend with her.
I'm confused.
[music]
Kayla is new, so I am trying to welcome her with open arms.
There's no one in here with Kayla.
'Cause I'm the only one who doesn't know her,
then I'm like, "Wait a minute, we're on a couple's retreat.
Where's your man?"
Why did you and your boyfriend not arrive at the same time?
So he was on a business trip. He should be here like, soon.
Got it.
I'm like, so out of touch.
So is Young and Pregnant still going?
No. So Young and Pregnant's done.
[Mackenzie] As I talked to Kayla it kind of started clicking.
And I realized who she is.
I think maybe we argued online once.
[laughs]
Apparently, they filmed a show where they sat
and watched our show. I've seen one clip.
Mackenzie.
Of course, we're gonna start with the boring one.
Oh, [bleep]. [laughing]
Oh, [bleep]. Shots fired over here. Damn.
And so they said that and I just made a tweet about
all the Young and Pregnant cast.
The girl's night in.
We all sat on the couch and we were filmed watching
your guys's show and we were supposed to comment on it.
Okay.
And like, we did think some parts were boring.
[music]
I do not want to get involved in that conversation
with Kayla and Mackenzie.
Like, on our show it was a [bleep] show,
so there was a lot of content to talk about,
since we're so young.
So why isn't your show still going if it was
a lot of activity?
I don't know.
I'm gonna have to bite my tongue because I just walked
in this house and I'm not here for the drama.
I'm here to fix my relationship.
[Mackenzie] I came in. I tried.
And I'm like, "Okay."
[music]
What's going on?
We're all getting ready right now because we're gonna go do
an outdoor activity Maci planned.
Tell me about it when you get back.
Hopefully, Ryan's here when we get back.
I hope so. I want you guys to meet him.
[Cate] Are you gonna stay?
[Kayla] Yeah. I've been traveling all day.
And my man's coming in late.
-[Zach] See you later. -[Tyler] See you later.
[Kayla] Bye, guys.

[Tyler] This is right up your alley, honey.
[Cate] No, it's not.
I mean, I'm definitely afraid of heights.
Like, whatever, but it's always fun to get out of the house.
Okay. Come on.
[Cate] With Mackenzie, this is her first experience
with the group and I just feel like Mackenzie doesn't know
kind of where her place is. Maybe this will help.
This is a lot of [bleep]. A little zip line.
[Taylor] So I know there's been some issues
between Mackenzie and Cheyenne.
You could kind of feel the tension.
So we're gonna break into teams and do something competitive.
And that helps build your team stronger.
[music]
[Taylor] As you can see we've got an obstacle course here.
We're setting up a competition.
Cool.
All right, all right.
[Cory] Maci and Taylor, know anything about those two,
you know they are competitive.
So they will bring us to a rope's course.
Let's get this thing going.
We're gonna race through this obstacle course.
You're gonna be in heats.
I wanna do girls verse boys.
Oh!
I like that.
As girls, we are about to dominate.
Huddle up, huddle up.
It's lookin' like a scene out of Cory's world,
the challenge, boy.
Let's see what we're working with right here.
I'm seeing all type of ropes. I already know we got this.
So who do we want to go first?
Somebody's gotta set the tone for us right here.
Hey, who's going over there first?
Nope. Don't tell 'em. Don't tell 'em.
Okay, I think we're doing Mackenzie.
Girls all being together, I feel like this is gonna
make us all work as a team.
We might not all be best friends,
but we can coincide and hopefully, turn out a win.
I feel like Mackenzie a little.
We're ready.
Who's going first?
Mackenzie is.
Oh, shoot.
I told the boys, they are gonna send Mackenzie first.
And I am gonna go first.
I didn't wanna go against you, honey.
I know you didn't.
I'm first up and I'm like, "I gotta set the pace."
I'm still trying to get myself into this group.
So I just have to get over there as fast as I can.
I'm confident I'm gonna beat you.
I'm not scared of heights.
And I know you're a baby, so I'm like,
"This is probably my advantage."
Y'all aren't together now! You're with the boys.
I am with the boys now.
Yeah. We got this.
Mackenzie, I believe in you.
Come on, Khes.
[music]
Come on, Mackenzie!
-There you go! -Way to go, Khes!
-Oh! -You better run!
[Mackenzie] You may be a professional soccer player,
but I was an all-star cheerleader.
I got this. My little legs can beat you.
Oh, [bleep].
Okay.
It's over. It's over.
Good job.
Khesanio started strong for the men. We on a roll, baby.
Who are y'all sending?
Okay, on three at the same time.
One, two, three.
Taylor.
[Laughs] One person.
Okay. We're not telling them [bleep] no more.
The guys, they talk some [bleep].
We're here to show them and we're gonna show out.
-Give me this one. =You got it.
-All right, Cory. -Let's go.
It's me against my lady.
You nervous right now?
Those butterflies aren't gonna go away.
I'll kick you off of this thing.

-Damn! -No, she was good.
Oh, that hurts so bad.
Is she okay?
She's hurt.
Maci, you good?
I bursted a kidney.
Is she okay? Oh, my God.
My ribs are absolutely killing me.
-You all right? -No.
It feels like someone punched me in the kidney.
-Where'd it hit you at? -Right here.
You don't often see Maci in this much pain.
This looks really bad.
Oh God.
[Maci] Oh, that hurt. Oh, my God.
Oh, yeah. She's hurt.
Maci, you good?
It's not outside. It's inside.
[Taylor] Maci just fell. I know she's tough.
It looks pretty bad.
She hit something like...
I'm good. I need water.
Good.
[Maci] Falling was not fun.
She just got a little rattled.
[Maci] This [bleep] hurts, but not gonna let any [bleep]
get in the way. Definitely not gonna give up.
-Are you okay? -Yeah.
-We won one. -We won.
[cheering]
[Cheyenne] Maci is so tough and I'm happy that she's okay.
And finally we won.
[Maci] I'm just glad I beat Taylor.
I need a kidney. I need a new kidney.
-Maci, you good? -[Maci] Yeah.
-You sure? -Yeah.
All right.
She's the winner.
So just so we know, we know what team won, right?
Yeah.
[Jade] I think we had fun.
We all had to work together as a team.
You know, we have people that don't necessarily get along
like Cheyenne, Mackenzie, but we're still there having fun
and working as a team.
And I feel like that speaks on adulting and growth.
Boys on three. One, two, three.

She didn't go with us because she was waiting for her man.
And he's still not here.
It's kind of weird.
[music]
♪ One, two on the floor I'm ready to go ♪
[Jade] I'm so excited that Kayla's here.
I just wanna see how she's doing and just spend time with her.
How long have you and Ryan been dating?
So it's been almost a year.
So you just kept him low-key because you just didn't wanna
deal with the drama?
Yeah, I mean, Luke like, knows about him.
Right.
You know, everyone knows like, I was cheating with--
-Cheating on Luke with Ryan. -But Luke was cheating, too.
We have a lot of issues that we're trying to work through,
so I just think we need to know like, where we're going.
Like, do you see me as like, a potential wife?
Can I see you as my potential husband?
-Because if not-- -Are we serious
or are we just wasting our time [bleep] around?
[Kayla] I really enjoy talking to Jade because she makes it
very easy to confide in. She's not judgemental.
She can keep secrets when I need her to.
Bitch, I gotta tell you something, since there's like,
there's nobody here right now.
So, I'm pregnant.
Nobody knows besides like, my mom.
That's it.
Are you gonna tell the whole house?
-Or like-- -I think I'm not.
You're just gonna wait?
Well, I want Ryan to really get here, too, and get comfortable.
And I don't wanna just be like, "We're having a baby."
And him being like, "Oh my God, this is a lot."
Ryan and I haven't really had much conversation about the baby
at all at home, so I don't really feel comfortable
telling everybody here until he gets here
and at least we can talk about it first.
I'm guessing you're not gonna be drinking 'cause you're pregnant.
And people are gonna realize very soon--
-I know-- -That you're not--
And then the activities, I can't do--
[Jade] Certain stuff.
The doctor didn't clear me for everything.
Now, I understand the reasons that Kayla didn't come
to the eco-park outing.
What are you guys thinking?
We're not in the position to bring a kid into this.
And like, I already have two kids and he has a kid,
-so like, that's four kids. -Oh, he has a kid?
Yes. He has a son.
Me and Ryan are like, at opposite ends.
You've wanted a family with me since we were like,
young as [bleep].
And now that I am pregnant with your child, you're kind of like,
"Ooh, no. No."
With Ryan being not into the pregnancy is like,
a major red flag off the jump. So I think that Kayla and Ryan
have a lot of problems to work on.
The life coaches here, we have Dr. Mike and Mukaya.
I feel like they're super down-to-earth,
so I think it'll help you guys.
So I think when you guys do a private session,
that has to be the thing.
Like, "Look, we gotta get this out now."
Yeah, I'm looking forward to it because I think we just need
some like, direction, like, where are we going?
We clearly need the help, but I'm definitely
feeling scared because we have a lot of big life decisions
that we need to make. We'll see.
We're running out of time.
We're running out of time to make a choice.
Yeah, pretty soon the choice is gonna be made for us.
Yeah.
[music]
Maci, I hate that you're in pain.
And it's like, all over your face.
Has it started to like, bruise up?
Not yet.
I needed to see the medic
because this pain wasn't going away.
[Maci] No, but I put ice on it for a long time.
No.
Everyone needs to chill. I'm gonna be fine.
What about a little sex?
Absolutely not.
[laughing]
It's a Jacuzzi in this mother[bleep].
At least put my feet in while I wait 'cause I'm hot.
I'm definitely anxious because I'm waiting for Ryan
to arrive. I'm not really sure are people gonna like him.
Am I gonna like him today?
You're like, "Uh, hurry up.
I am the only one without my boyfriend."
Yeah.
[knock on door]
Three, two, one.
Oh, I think the door just opened.
[music]
What's up?
Give me a hug. I missed you.
I missed you, too.
Hi.
That's Kayla's guy. I told you she's not with Luke.
Fresh meat, fresh meat.
I'm arriving to this reunion late for reason number one,
I was working. Reason number two,
we really didn't feel comfortable enough
to fly together because all the problems
that we are going through at home.
He's like, "What the [bleep] did I just walk into?"
Kayla and Ryan's body language is kind of throwing me off.
I should put my hair up.
I don't know what's wrong.
Are you gonna get in the pool?
Walking into the house, I feel uncomfortable.
I have no clue what's gonna happen.
It's out of my element.
I don't know anybody.
And I don't know if I'm ready to even be next to Kayla
at this point.
[music]
Give me a hug. I missed you.
I missed you, too.
I'm walking through the door and my brain's just firing off
missiles in my head 'cause I don't know what to expect.
And seeing Kayla, I definitely feel tension between us.
And just was like, making me tense up a bit.
-Hi. -How are you?
-Ryan, right? -Yes.
I'm Jade.
We're just having like, a chill night, so you can meet everyone,
have some drinks.
State your name. No, I'm just playin' with you.
Oh, my God.
I don't know too much about him nor do I know
too much about Kayla, but I hope he's good for her,
so we gonna give it a chance.
Hi. I'm Cheyenne.
I'm his wife. I belong to that one over there.
My name's Cory.
Listen, I need you to take this shot.
I need more drink.
-Want one? -No, I'm good. Thank you.
Welcome to the family.
[music]
I need to catch up with y'all.
[Cheyenne] Ryan, he's ready to party. He's young.
He's here for a good time.
But you're here with your girlfriend.
Maybe slow it down and go focus on Kayla.
Bull[bleep].
I'm gonna organize this later. Hang some stuff up.
Yeah. Good luck.
Good luck what? It's a lot of stuff.
-Anyways-- -Did you talk to everybody?
About what?
Our relationship is such a [bleep] mess right now.
We're not on good terms.
I am pregnant and we still don't have a decision.
I don't want him telling everybody here.
I mean, it's a little obvious I'm not drinking
and I'm not doing any activities.
Yeah, you're all covered up.
Yeah, I know.
-You can tell now, though. -No, you can't.
I just look a little bloated like I ate too much today.

-No, I'm good. -[Cory] Okay.
All right. We're taking a shot.
Yeah.
[Cheyenne] Finding out that Kayla is pregnant,
I'm definitely surprised.
-Congratulations. -Don't say anything yet.
-Okay. -I don't know.
Don't say nothing.
Do you think this is someone you can be with like,
in the long run?
I think so. If we could work out like, these--
-Kinks. -Kinks. Yeah.
It seems like there's little cracks in the foundation.
And that could be difficult.
[music]
Let's do this, fellas.
I'm surprised she's not over here taking a shot.
She doesn't wanna drink?
-She technically can't. -She can't?
Think about it.
Why can't you drink if you're a female?
Come on. You got three, Cory.
I can see it. You're so close.
Wow. I can't believe they're pregnant.
Congrats. I just found out.
[Ryan] Kayla said not to say anything right now.
That's not how I am. I like to get it out there.
You could've hit me with that from the jump.
Whoopsie daisy.
I'm just gonna give you a quick head's up.
He is talking about it.
Oh, Lord Jesus.
I'm very upset with Ryan 'cause I just feel like
he doesn't open up to me.
And now he's opening up to strangers.
Clearly, we have a big problem with our communication.

-[Tyler] What's his name? -I forgot.
[music]
The tension this morning with me and Kayla is very bad.
I mean, just things are off.
And it's like, I don't know where we're going from here.
[Taylor] Get this.
We're flying from Cartagena to the Republic Of Panama.
[Maci] And then from there to Atlanta?
There to Atlanta.
This experience has been great, but unfortunately,
Taylor and I have to go home early tomorrow morning.
We just found out that we don't have childcare for next week.
It's hard to get childcare for three kids.
But we still have one more day.
And Taylor and I, we're gonna make the most of it.
"Have kids," they said. "It'll be fun," they said.
So since it is your last day, what would be something that
you would want to accomplish today?
Pack.
-[Cheyenne] Did you say pack? -He said pack.
-[Cheyenne] Oh, my God. -[laughs]
I'm so bummed that Maci and Taylor are leaving.
Taylor, man, we're gonna miss you.
[Cheyenne] Taylor, don't go!
I don't think you should go. I don't think you should leave.
This was our first family reunion
where we got to know Taylor. I definitely think that they
could have benefitted more from staying.
But I feel like they still got something
out of this experience.
[Tyler] [bleep] you for leaving.
[music]
I was actually an ace. If it's an ace, it's a wrap.
How's it goin'?
Hey.
Good.
So I am doing a hypnosis workshop with all of my ladies.
So ladies, follow me.
I like it.
Am I just gonna start spilling more [bleep]
that I never told anyone before?
Oh, I can't be hypnotized.
What?
What's up, guys? Huddle up, huddle up.
The coach is here.
Oh [bleep], what's up?
So, today, guys, you're with me.
So we're gonna head to the beach for our exercise for the day.
-Come on. -Lead the way.
Come on.
[Ryan] Walking into the workshop, I'm very nervous
'cause I don't have any idea what I'm walking into.
I mean, it's my second day here.
And we gotta make it quick 'cause this activity
has an expiration date on it.
♪ I see it Like it ♪
♪ I want it On it ♪
♪ I'm gettin' it, yeah ♪
Let's go.
Ooh.
-Bout to get cold. -Let's go.
-Ice bath. -Hell, yeah.
[Tyler] Awe, man. Ice baths.
I guess, here we go.
Who recognizes what's behind you?
Ice baths.
[Cory] Me being an athlete, I use the ice bath all the time.
This thing is gonna make your body feel brand new.
I'm excited for this.
The ice bath today represents the extreme conditions
that exist in every relationship.
Sometimes you're gonna get emotionally charged up.
And you need to take that break to come down.
You gotta breathe through those moments.
This workshop is all about keeping your cool
when conflict comes up.
And your ladies are learning the same thing with Dr. Mike
right now through hypnosis.
It's like being in an argument.
Are you gonna stay in that or are you gonna get out and run?
I'm looking at this ice and I promise,
I'm ready to dive all the way in.
It's time to get into your ice bath.
[music]
This thing is cold right now, but it feels good.
I am shivering my ass off.
That ice bath, man. Are you trying to kill me?
Give me hypothermia and [bleep]?
All right, so Tyler, what are some times with Cate
that you might have to bring yourself down?
When she's having major like panic attacks or anxiety.
I have to keep myself, you know, in check.
When it first happened, I was very, um,
I was trying to be the fixer.
I was like, "All right, listen. We gotta go for a walk."
At first, I was trying to be kind of that like, caretaker.
And now, I'm just like, "You know what to do."
I believe in the power of internal healing.
Before I wasn't really good at that.
I was very critical.
And I also feel like for me, like what I now that she needs--
This ice bath is freezing.
And Tyler's giving this long, drawn-out answer.
I realize that uh, Tyler's solutions don't work
for Catelynn problems.
Boy, this is killing me right now.
Please, hurry up.
Give a one-word answer, okay?
Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.
Sorry, boys. I know I'm jibber-jabbering my jaws.
I'm like, "Tyler, shut the [bleep] up, dude."
[music]
How's everybody doing today? Yeah?
We're okay.
So welcome to this hypnosis workshop.
Hypnosis can be a really wonderful tool when
there's something in your life, when you're dealing
with conflict and issues that may be affecting your ability
to keep your relationship strong.
[Cheyenne] Hypnosis, I'm all for it.
I got hypnotized to help with driving anxiety.
And it really did help.
You easily can fantasize about yourself feeling
just this calm and relaxed as you envision yourself
driving comfortably and relaxed.
I'm gonna be teaching you something today that is
gonna help all of you just really calm yourself down.
[Mackenzie] I've never been hypnotized.
I went to shows and people were acting fools.
And I'm like, "That will never be me."
It just sounds a little Satanic.
A Satanic experience. I don't know.
[Dr. Mike] Okay, before we get into the hypnosis,
I want each of you to take one of these red balls
and a Sharpie.
My dog would like these.
[Dr. Mike] Now I want you to think of a word.
What is something that you want to release while you're here?
And write that on a ball.
Something we want to release?
What's your phrase or word?
-Um, self-doubt. -Yeah. Who can relate to that?
Same words. Self-doubt.
Why Maci? Why do you have self-doubt, too?
I wanna be able to trust myself with the ability to accomplish
everything that I want to accomplish,
but also give myself space and time to feel everything
-that I want and need to feel. -Mm-hmm.
Too, so I want to get rid of the self-doubt that
doesn't allow me to do both.
[Dr. Mike] That self-doubt really holds you back.
Yeah.
Who would you be without it?
I feel like I'd probably be less controlling.
That controlling nature, the fuse is always like,
-at high. -Yes.
Right? And when you were talking I was thinking of you, Jade.
And I think you, Cheyenne.
-[Jade] I run a tight ship. -I wrote control on my ball.
Oh, you did? Why control?
I need to like, learn how to release control.
And that's within everything. Like, within my personal life
or the way I handle like, my marriage.
Jade and I are very strong in what we want.
And so strong that we're like,
"We're gonna do it how we wanna do it 'cause we know we can
get it done the right way."
And we don't even allow them the space to step up to do it.
[Dr. Mike] Interesting.
And don't give them a chance to try and fail or succeed.
You want me to be the man, but you're not even giving me
-the space to be the man. -Agreed.
[Dr. Mike] Interesting.
So they're in this must-fail situation.
So here's how the hypnosis can help.
It is a way to train your subconscious to release
whatever emotion or blockage that is holding you back.
So let's just uh, get very comfortable.
Just allow the eyes to close.
You're listening to the sound of my voice.
Hypnosis, go.
[gong chimes]
Notice the places
where the feet or the hands are making contact with the pillow.
And really fully arrive to this moment.
And just allowing yourself to
let go of everything that came before.
And maybe you can teach your brain with this non-ordinary
state of consciousness that you are okay.
[Cate] I feel like I'm in a relaxed state of mind,
almost like a meditation.
My body just feels very like, heavy and just relaxed.
You may imagine that you're walking into a garden
with someone or an angel or a spirit that is going
to help you in your time here.
And almost imagining that that entity, that spirit,
that energy, that growth is helping you communicating
with the thing that you are letting go.
Think of that word you wrote on your ball.
And slowly let your body and your mind release it
and set you free.
I never in a million years expected to be hypnotized.
But I feel like this is helping me like,
just release and let go.
I feel like I'm not holding a bunch of tension.
Now, coming back to this room, one, two, three.
Come back to this room. Eyes open.
[snaps fingers]
Maci, what did you hear? Where did you go?
There are tears streaming down your face.
I don't know. It was like, really calming and pretty.
The weirdest thing is that I have no idea why I'm crying.
I'm not like, overwhelmed with emotions.
This is a different experience, but I like it.
[Dr. Mike] That's the antidote to some of that control
and some of that serious nature.
Mackenzie, what's that one thing you were thinking of
that's holding you back that you want to let go of?
I have a very big fear of death.
Why?
'Cause...
Talk about it Mackenzie. It's okay.
Yeah. It's all right to be vulnerable.
I'm just scared of death.
Like, I watched my mom take her last breath.
[Cate] My heart just hurts for Mackenzie.
She has been through a lot.
I just feel the pain from her.
And the sadness, and the hurt, and the grief.
And I just want her to feel what she's feeling.
I'm just scared of death.
Like, I watched my mom take her last breath.
And that was like, my rock.
And then my life fell apart after,
so I guess I'm just scared of that repeating itself.
All I want is just to see you get better.
That's all I want.
And if it doesn't happen, I'm gonna be really mad.
I feel like I'm gonna fall apart.
Nanny's not gonna get to come home from the hospital, okay?
Never, ever, ever?
We love you.
How do you know?
Because I think it's time for her to go to Heaven.
Grief is something that even when you get through it,
you're never just over the death.
You just learn to live with it.
I mean, I would not be okay if I lost my mom, so...
It makes me emotional to even think about, so--
[Dr. Mike] That touches you? Why?
Because I love my mom, so I can't imagine.
I'm sorry.
My mom's my everything.
I'm sorry. I don't wanna cry.
[Dr. Mike] It's okay.
[Cheyenne] We have our issues, but with Mackenzie
losing her mom and going through a horrible divorce,
I hope that she has all the help and support.
And I genuinely wish her the best of luck.
What do you think your mom would be the most proud of?
What do you think she's seeing that she's like,
"Oh, look at my girl?"
You left.
You left him. Like, you restarted.
I think she'd be so proud of you.
She is proud of you.
Khesanio, who are you here with?
I'm here with Mackenzie. I was married as well.
I got a divorce as well. I have been married before.
So it's important for me to grow from that experience
and also support Mackenzie with issues she has
from her and her ex, Josh.
Tell me about what conflict looks like
and how you might be able to use this exercise
in your relationship?
I am coming from a marriage where I was able to have
difficult conversations without like, yelling.
And she's coming from a totally different marriage.
For her, it was more of like, a yelling type of situations.
Um, so being able to trust her and just both of us trying
to get on the same page, me being patient with her,
and stuff like that.
In the beginning of a relationship,
you're committing to getting to know your partner.
You don't yet know all the things about each other's past.
Our previous relationships, our parenting styles.
Cultural differences. So in the beginning,
we have to trust that I'm gonna extend the patience that's
needed to learn each other.
[Khesanio] This ice bath really symbolizes my commitment
to Mackenzie.
At no point in this ice bath that I, it crossed my mind
that I wanted to get out.
This is the same thing for my relationship with Mackenzie.
I'm in it and I'm gonna struggle with her
even if she's struggling.
[Dr. Mike] Okay. Before we wrap things up for the day,
Mackenzie, sit here.
Cheyenne, sit here.
I know that there have been a lot of hurts,
what I am here to tend to the human beings who are here.
And even if you decide that you don't wanna have somebody
in your life, there is something that is human as moms
that connects you.
Cheyenne, what do you see here?
What have you learned from this woman today?
I just feel like this is really forced right now.
And like, in often take to be honest.
So you've decided it's over?
I wouldn't call it that.
I would just say I don't need anything.
I'm not looking for anything. I don't need like, an apology.
[Cate] I understand what Dr. Mike is trying to do
as far as like, "Let's talk this out."
But I think that Dr. Mike just doesn't understand
the severity of like, what has happened
between the two of them.
Your actions and your body is telling me that there is
a part of you that really does not like this person.
I mean, to be honest, no, I don't.
[music]
What would you need to accept that apology?
[Cheyenne] Walking into this exercise, I was really open.
Walking out, I don't want to see Coach Mike again.
Bringing a child into this life is serious.
Oh, that's wild.
He needs to take care of his business.
You think I can't handle my own [bleep]?
Okay.
Cheyenne's going off like I'm just some type of kid.
I don't have anything else to say.
-Disrespectful ass. -Walk away.
[music]
