LZ interviews Jennie Garth on his podcast, discussing her book “I Choose Me,” its conversational tone, and themes of embracing emotions, acknowledging automatic negative thoughts, setting boundaries, and prioritizing time after loss and grief. 

They talk about Garth’s upbringing in Illinois, her parents’ influence as educators who modeled helping others, self-reliance, and women’s empowerment, and how these lessons shaped her purpose. 

Garth shares memories of her father’s death in 2008, missing his passing by moments, and reflects on the gifts her parents gave her. She recounts being cast on “Beverly Hills, 90210,” the intensity and global fame that left her feeling she missed a decade of personal development, and her bond with Luke Perry, including what he taught her about giving people what they need. 

They touch on co-parenting and healing conversations with ex-husband Peter, QVC work, and close friendship moments, ending with Garth’s statement: “I am beautiful because I love deeply.”
