Abby Huntsman said quitting “The View” was a no-brainer as it so badly impacted her well-being. “The decision that I made was probably the best decision I could have made for my life, for my mental health, for my happiness, for my family,” she told People. “When I walked out those doors for the first time, I could hear the birds chirping in the city, in Central Park,” she continued. “And I looked up in the sky, and I thought, ‘This is the best thing I did for myself.’ Because I can see the world, I can hear the world, I’m more present.”
In another interview with People, Huntsman admitted that, ironically, it was only after leaving the talk show that she could finally “find my voice” — both figuratively and literally. After taking some time to regroup with her husband and kids and then ride out the pandemic, the former Fox talking head launched a podcast, “I Wish Somebody Told Me,” with her friend Lauren Leeds.

According to its bio, the podcast “[features] in-depth conversations with some of the most impactful people of our time, from the worlds of entertainment, politics, business, and journalism.” Guests discuss their life journey and future projects and share what they wish they’d known before starting their careers. Jenna Elfman, Brooke Baldwin, and Lecy Goranson are among the interviewees who have sat down with Huntsman and Leeds so far.
