Lindsay was forced to delete her Instagram account due to harassment from fans.

\"I've been struggling, that's no secret,\" she explained. \"And it's been really, really hard for me lately and a lot of the things that we talk about on this podcast are also about taking care of yourself and finding your peace and protecting that peace and protecting your mental health.\"

\"And so for me, I just feel like I've come to the end of doing the podcast,\" she continued.

Meanwhile, Lindsay's current co-host, former \"Bachelorette\" Becca Kufrin, will continue in the role, with a new co-host to be announced at a later date.
