Teresa Giudice is looking to get out of the Garden State!

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star, 50, revealed her plan to move to California with her new husband, Luis Ruelas, on the latest episode of her podcast Namaste B$tches, released on Wednesday, Jan. 18.

"Listen, I wanna move by you 'cause like, this weather is so crappy," the reality star tells her California-based co-host, Melissa Pfeister, during the episode. "It was pouring rain this morning and I was just like, 'Oh my God,' and then I'm thinking about you, like, 'Melissa's in the sunshine, I want to be there with her!'" Pfeister recently moved to Manhattan Beach, Calif.

She explains that she's waiting until her youngest daughter, Audriana, 14, graduates from high school to officially make the move. Along with Audriana, she also shares daughters Gia, 23, Gabriella, 18, and Milania, 16, with her ex-husband Joe Giudice.

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE in December, Teresa opened up about how her daughters love their new blended family following her extravagant August wedding to Ruelas — who is also father to sons Nicholas, 21, and Louie Jr., 19.

"The girls embrace Louie, and it's beautiful," Teresa told PEOPLE. "Little Louie hangs out with the girls all the time, they go out together. I treat him like he's my own, and of course, Nicholas, too."

Ruelas added that Teresa's daughters care for him like he's family, sharing a sweet moment he had with Gabriella when her mom was out of town.

"The last two weeks, Teresa's out, and I'm home. So, she comes up to me. She's like, 'Are you hungry?' I'm like, 'No, babe, why? Why are you asking?'" he recalls. "She goes, 'Mom told me that when she's not here to make sure you're okay.'"

He continues: "She's like, 'Mom told me if you're hungry, I make you a sandwich, something like that. I'm like, 'Oh my God, that's so sweet of you,' because she basically told the girls like, 'When I'm not here, you make sure you take care of him.'"
