In this episode, we get real about his new book, Breaking Free: Stop Following Expectations and Start Following Yourself, the pressure of living inside a story the world wrote for him, hitting rock bottom in college, coming out as a gay man, navigating relentless questions about his disability, finding love, and why true freedom begins when you stop living for everyone else’s expectations and finally start following yourself.

From singing onstage at 7 to moving to Nashville at 14, Alana Springsteen has spent her life chasing a dream. Now, with her new album, I Hope This Helps, over 400 million streams, her first Gold record, and a #1 hit with Tiësto, she’s proving vulnerability can be just as powerful as ambition. I truly feel like we have the same brain, and it was so inspiring to talk about our mental states, how she grew up too fast, healed inherited patterns, evolved her faith, and is finding identity beyond success, plus what it really takes to become yourself.

Rodney Atkins is the kind of country artist who proves the best songs usually come from the life you actually live. After a seven-year break from releasing a full studio album, Rodney returns with True South, not because he stepped away from music, but because life got bigger. Marriage, fatherhood, raising three sons with his wife Rose Falcon, and building a family became the story he wanted to tell.
The man behind anthems like “If You’re Going Through Hell,” “It’s America,” and “Take a Back Road” helped define 2000s country radio with six No. 1 hits, but these days, his biggest role is being a dad. His song “Watching You” wasn’t just a hit… it was a real-life snapshot of parenting and the little moments that become everything.
Now, with True South, Rodney Atkins raises a longneck to the things that matter most: love, family, memories, and the life he’s built.

O-Town’s Ashley Parker Angel went from being the breakout heartthrob of Making the Band to living a life that’s truly all in. As part of O-Town, he helped create some of the biggest pop moments of the early 2000s with hits like “All or Nothing” and “Liquid Dreams,” selling over 10 million albums worldwide.
But Ashley’s story is about so much more than fame. After years of performing, Broadway, and chasing his dreams, he hit a point of burnout and exhaustion that led to a major health wake-up call. That journey inspired his new passion: helping others feel their best through his science-backed wellness brand High Level Science, now in 700 GNC locations, and his Making the Brand Tour.
From boy band dreams to building a whole new chapter, Ashley is proof that you can keep evolving, keep dreaming, and keep going all in on the life you want.

Kassi Ashton is the kind of artist who lights Up Every Room Like It’s Soaked in Kerosene
Before most people knew her name, Kassi was offered 11 record deals, proof of the undeniable talent and star power she’s always had. In this episode, she shares how the music industry has both broken her heart and blessed her with a beautiful life and career.
We talk about her love of fashion and how every look is part of her storytelling. For Kassi, style is not separate from the music. It is an extension of who she is.
She also opens up about meeting her husband, the one person who was able to break through her walls. Their love story feels like pure soulmate material, and in true Kassi fashion, she even made her own wedding dress.

Some conversations stay with you forever, and this is one of them. Getting to talk with Amy Grant felt surreal. We talked about her powerful new album, The Me That Remains, her first album in 13 years, a project that beautifully weaves together the stories, seasons, and soul of a life fully lived.
We went all the way back to the beginning… from being discovered and signed over the phone at just 16 years old, to building a beautiful life and love story with Vince Gill (who, as it turns out, measure their love in dogs ❤️).
Amy was the very first artist I ever truly fell in love with. My sister and I absolutely wore out Heart in Motion, singing into our hairbrushes like we were on stage right beside her.
To get to talk with someone whose music helped shape your childhood, and hear the stories behind the legend, was something I’ll never forget.

She’s back. Medical intuitive Julie Ryan joins me for a fascinating conversation about how she developed the ability to scan the body like a “human MRI,” intuitively sensing and seeing illness, energy blocks, and connecting with spirit.

At 13, Tenille Arts was in her bedroom in small-town Saskatchewan, singing Blue and dreaming of a life in country music. Years later, she stood on the stage of the Grand Ole Opry singing it alongside LeAnn Rimes in a moment that felt almost too full-circle to be real.
In this episode, Tenille pulls back the curtain on everything it took to get there, the quiet years, the doubt, building her career from the ground up in Nashville, and the breakthrough that changed everything. She opens up about love, heartbreak, behind the scenes on The Bachelor, and the story behind “Don’t Ruin Flowers,” plus the personal “unbecoming” that brought her back to herself.

She just dropped her album LACED, but the real story runs deeper. From calling off her wedding and walking away from toxic love, to navigating industry betrayal and questioning everything… even music itself. And in the middle of it all, processing the loss of her cousin, a grief that shaped more of this album than anyone knows.
This is about heartbreak, faith, identity, and finally choosing herself. So after everything… who is Morgan now, and what is she no longer willing to stay silent about?

At just 11 years old, she went viral for what was called the “worst national anthem” performance and faced global bullying that followed her for years. But instead of staying stuck in that moment, she kept going, growing stronger, grounded in her faith, and eventually stepping into her identity as a signed country artist.
Now she’s back with her new single If Daddy Says No, a song about self-worth, recognizing what you deserve, and refusing to settle for less than that.
She’s also opening up for the first time about a deeply painful experience from her childhood involving someone she trusted, and the long journey of healing, faith, and finding her voice again.
From public humiliation to private pain to powerful purpose, this is her story of resilience.

Okay… this one is powerful. Liz Tenuto, aka The Workout Witch, is not holding anything back. She opens up about surviving childhood abuse, walking away from a narcissistic marriage, and how she finally found real healing through somatics.

Her new book “When the body Speaks,” is raw, empowering, and honestly… the kind of conversation so many women need right now.

Known for her viral spoken word piece I Have a New Name, she’s here to break barriers, bring clarity, and remind us that faith was never meant to be complicated.

Caroline sat down with Caroline Bryan back in 2019 and we're sharing that episode ICYMI!
Not only is Caroline a total bombshell, she is the funniest prankster I have ever witnessed. Over Christmas, Caroline did “the 12 days of pranks” where she hid in a life size teddy bear and scared every family member and friend walking by, put fingernail polish on a bar of soap only to hear Luke wonder why it’s not lathering up lol, plus many more pranks involving snakes, fog horns and fart machines. She also has a sidekick, LeClaire, Luke’s mother-in-law. Luke definitely got his dance moves from his mother, bc she can cut a rug! The Bryan Family is so much fun and so inspiring. They know how to enjoy life and find joy in everyday. Caroline and I chat about her love story with Luke and how they met in college. We also talk about how she and Luke have survived tragedy. Luke lost both his siblings and brother-in-law, and took in their 3 children: a son who was in high school and 2 college age daughters to live with them and their 2 sons Bo and Tate. Caroline and Luke also started a charity, Brett’s Barn, with Caroline’s brother and sister-in-law, in honor of her brother’s daughter Brett who died at a very young age. Brett’s Barn opens its doors to sick and disabled children to come pet and love on the animals. It’s a true sanctuary. Caroline has a heart of gold and uses her life to spread love and healing and laughs. She is such an example of faith. It was amazing to hear her story with Luke and see how they have such an incredible marriage and life in the midst of the wild world of the music industry and personal heartbreak.

Kara Birge has built a life with her husband, country artist George Birge on one simple philosophy: trust God and have fun through every season. From meeting at the University of Texas to early days flipping houses and working corporate jobs, to moving to Nashville for a record deal and starting over more than once, their journey has been full of faith, risk, and resilience. Through it all they’ve raised two boys, navigated the highs and challenges of the music business, and watched George score two No. 1 hits at country radio with “Mind On You” and “Cowboy Songs.” Now the adventure continues with a brand new collaboration with Luke Bryan “It Won’t Be Long,” proving that trusting the season and keeping fun at the center has been their secret weapon all along.

Frankie Ballard burst onto the country rock scene in 2010 with grit in his voice and gasoline in his veins, scoring three consecutive No. 1 hits, including Sunshine & Whiskey and racking up nearly a billion global streams. He toured with legends, lived on the road more than 200 days a year, and embodied the carefree, hard-driving spirit his songs celebrated.
But behind the success, the pace was unsustainable.
By 2020, the chase for approval and constant motion had taken its toll. Ballard stepped away from the spotlight, started a family, and quietly deepened his faith. What followed wasn’t a rebrand, it was a realignment. In 2025, he returned with The Messenger, a gospel-leaning, scripture-rooted record infused with blues and rock conviction. Then came “Money Runs Out,” a sharp reflection on loyalty, loss, and what remains when fame fades.
Today, Frankie Ballard isn’t chasing charts, he’s chasing truth. Grounded in fatherhood, disciplined in faith, and unafraid of hard questions, his music now carries the weight of lived experience.
This isn’t a comeback. It’s a reckoning.

His work explores the challenges of manhood, the lies men are taught about strength and vulnerability, and the search for love and peace amidst success and loneliness. His new song Temptation dives into inner conflict and the struggle to resist ego, anger, addiction, and lust, showing how faith and determination guide him through life’s hardest seasons. Dax’s story is about confronting your demons, finding your identity, and redefining what it truly means to be a man.

Gabby Mark was born with a port wine stain birthmark on her face, and for years, she thought it was a curse.
As a little girl, she carried the weight of other kids’ fear. They thought they could catch something from her. She learned to shrink herself to make others comfortable. But she chose a different story.
During COVID, she connected over Zoom with other young people who shared her birthmark. What once felt isolating became empowering. Together, they realized they weren’t different in a bad way, they were rare in a beautiful way.
Now at 21, Gabby walks into a room knowing she was made this way on purpose. Not as something to hide, but as something that sets her apart.
She channels her healing through her music trio, The 223, and brings that same confidence and grit to her work as my content creator and intern. I’m blown away by her belief in herself and dedication to what set her soul on fire.
She didn’t erase her mark.
She became it. ✨

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jenny Tolman grew up around music, but her path to finding her voice was anything but easy. In high school, she found herself in an abusive relationship that changed the course of her life. Songwriting became her escape, then her healing, and eventually her confidence. As the pain faded, the music turned brighter, and Jenny realized she didn’t just love music, she was meant to do it.
Her very first show was at the legendary Bluebird Cafe, and through songwriting she met her husband, Grammy nominated producer Dave Brainard. After Dave was brutally assaulted in a crosswalk attack, Jenny knew without question that he was her person and that she wanted to be with him forever.
Shortly after having her son Bear, Jenny was cast on The Road, starring Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, and Gretchen Wilson, becoming one of 12 finalists while balancing new motherhood and full time touring. It was the hardest and most life changing year of her life and proof that sometimes the bravest thing you can do is keep going.

Well Dressed Nashville started in 2019 when Bonnie, a pediatric cancer nurse, saw an opportunity at an influencer closet sale. WD was supposed to be an in-person event, but when COVID hit before the first sale, she moved everything online and it took off.
She built the business mostly alone, lost their 30k-follower Instagram in Oct 2022, rebuilt from zero, and had her best year in 2023 before burning out and planning to close.
Bonnie had become close with Liz Streisand, a former celebrity journalist who ran a Broadway ticketing company with her husband Eric, a longtime hedge fund manager. After six months of rest, Bonnie texted Liz “Let’s do it,” and on July 4, 2024, Liz and Eric bought half the business. They relaunched WD out of their garage, moved into a warehouse in Jan 2025, and hit their yearly goal by August.
In Sept 2025, Eric passed away after a five-year battle with lung cancer. Liz now shares how she and the kids are coping, while Bonnie shares her miraculous adoption story.
In Nov, during their anniversary drop, Well Dressed Nashville hit $1 million in sales—a milestone powered by grit, reinvention, and heart.

From her breakout on The Oprah Winfrey Show with Demi Moore to her bestselling books and work with major companies, she’s become one of the great minds of our generation.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Lanie Gardner doesn’t just write songs—she writes pages of her life and turns them into music. After her viral cover of “Dreams” (63M+ and counting), she’s gone from small-town Carolina to the Grand Ole Opry stage, proving that authenticity still wins in a world full of noise.
Her upcoming album Faded Polaroids (Sept 5th) is more than just a follow-up to her debut EP—it’s a songwriter’s diary you’re invited to read. It’s messy, it’s vulnerable, it’s real life caught on tape.
Along the way, she’s collaborated with Thomas Rhett (What Could Go Right), Warren Zeiders (Loving in Letting Go), and even had Mick Fleetwood play drums on High Divin’. She’s made her Stagecoach debut, joined tours with Corey Kent and Gavin Adcock, and her songs have landed in Twisters and Queen of the Ring.
At just 25, she’s already living out prayers she used to whisper—singing Cry (a song she wrote at 16) on tour with Jelly Roll, making her Opry debut, and becoming one of country music’s most talked-about new voices.

Ryan & Rory are one of country’s most exciting new duos. Ryan Follesé first broke out as the lead singer of Hot Chelle Rae with the global hit “Tonight, Tonight.” Though he found success in pop, the son of two legendary Nashville songwriters always felt pulled back to country. He found his perfect match in Rory, a powerhouse vocalist and multi-instrumentalist who cut his teeth at the Myrtle Beach Opry playing 300 shows a year.
Broken Bow signed them on the spot, and the duo released their self-titled EP last summer. They’ve since dropped more singles like Them Boots, Truck Stop, and Together Again with Jamey Johnson—who rarely collaborates, but declared, “If I were a gambler, I’d bet it all on these two.” With millions of streams, a Grand Ole Opry debut, and undeniable chemistry, Ryan & Rory are just getting started. Their new song “Girls are Pretty” drops Friday!

With his new EP Midwest Calling, Roman shares the stories of where he’s from, what he’s carried, and why he’ll never stop believing in the music that brought him here. For him, success isn’t about charts—it’s about connection, faith, and the small circle of people who make it all matter.

Greylan James rolled into Nashville broke, living in a rundown East Nashville house surviving on tomato soup and a dream. Before the hits, he was writing nonstop, and once house-sat for a hit songwriter — then threw a 200-person party without asking. The songwriter’s response? “Hope you have a great time — just let everyone know it’s my house.” Legend.
Greylan went on to co-write “Happy Does,” Kenny Chesney’s #1 hit, then penned the Song of the Year, “Next Thing You Know,” for Jordan Davis. Now he’s stepping into the spotlight with “Water at a Wedding,” a nail bitter that has fans on the edge of their seat asking: Is he the baby daddy? No answers yet — but we’re all desperately waiting to know the truth. From broke to blazing, Greylan’s just getting started.

Rebecca Lynn Howard stormed into country music with “Forgive,” a powerhouse ballad that turned heads and proved her voice was the real deal. Not long after, Trisha Yearwood heard her play a song and asked to cut it on the spot—years later, they’d co-write Trisha’s latest single, “Girls Night In.”
Rebecca went on to form The Loving Mary Band, which became Steven Tyler’s personal band—showing she could crush it in any genre, on any stage.
But behind the music was a deeper journey: grieving her father, reclaiming her health, and coming back stronger than ever. Her new album, “I’m Not Who You Think I Am,” is raw, real, and full of hard-won truth. This is Rebecca—bold, honest, and completely unforgettable.

Brandon and Tripp of Lanco are back to answer some pretty tough questions! Some of them include: If you could be famous for something, what would you want it to be? What's something you worked really hard at recently? What's something you think people assume about you when they first meet you? Who in your life has had a bigger impact on you than they probably know?
See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
After bursting onto the scene in 2017 with their breakout debut album Hallelujah Nights, and 5X Platinum hit Greatest Love Story, Lanco rocketed to country music stardom. Fueled by chart-topping hits and infectious energy, they found themselves living at the top of the game—touring nationwide, appearing on late-night shows, and rubbing shoulders with celebrity friends. It was a whirlwind of success, and for a while, it seemed like nothing could slow them down. But life has a way of shifting the spotlight.
In the years since their debut, the band faced the quiet that follows the noise. The fame faded into reflection, and instead of chasing the next big thing, they regrouped. The members of Lanco—now all fathers—took a step back and started asking deeper questions: What does success really mean? What kind of legacy do we want to leave? Their long-awaited second album, We’re Gonna Make It, is the raw and redemptive product of that soul-searching journey. It’s a record rich with perspective—an honest reflection on family, faith, failure, and the fight to stay grounded in a world that constantly pulls you off your feet.
We’re Gonna Make It is the sound of a band that’s grown up, gotten real, and finally found what matters most.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Iam Tongi is the Hawaiian kid who broke everyone on American Idol Season 23. He showed up heartbroken—his dad had just passed 3 months before. Music was always their thing. He almost quit completely. But his mom secretly signed him up for Idol anyway.
Then he sang “Monsters”… and the world felt it. That was the moment. He won Season 23, but losing his dad forced him to find his own voice, live, on television. When his guitar broke during Hollywood Week, he knew—this was his dad telling him he could do it on his own.
Now? He just dropped “Unbreak My Heart,” plus “Sunshine” that he wrote for his mom, performed at the Opry, CMA Fest, even has a track in Lilo & Stitch, plus an album in the works… All while losing 110 pounds, still grieving, still growing—and singing from a place only he can. Iam Tongi is a true inspiration, lifting hearts around the world with his voice and story.

Today, he’s married with three kids under three and living a life that once felt like a dream. His story is proof that taking a leap of faith can lead to something truly incredible.

Let me tell you about my friend Gabrielle — she’s honestly something out of a miracle story. Gabi is a true conduit for healing energy, like the real deal. After going through her own journey of breaking chains and healing herself — spiritually and physically (yes, literally healing her body and others’ too) — she realized she couldn’t keep these gifts to herself. She had to share them with the world.
What’s wild is where her journey started. Believe it or not, Gabi first tapped into her gifts as a sex phone therapist. Crazy, right? But here’s the beautiful part: what she discovered was that the men calling her weren’t actually looking for what you might think — they were craving something deeper. They needed real healing. They needed someone to listen, to see them.
That opened a door for Gabi. She realized that healing isn’t about fixing people — it’s about helping them remember their own power. Fast forward to today, she’s this incredible force, teaching others how to break free from their chains, reclaim their power, and heal themselves, just like she did. It’s powerful. It’s inspiring. It’s pure magic.

Healing as a nation starts with one simple thing in my opinion: listening. We don’t have to agree, but we do need to try and understand each other. For years, I avoided controversial conversations to keep the peace—but I’ve learned that true progress comes from leaning into uncomfortable dialogues. So, when I had the chance to sit down with Tomi Lahren, an outspoken Republican, I almost hesitated. But then I remembered: my whole purpose in starting this podcast almost 10 years ago was to learn, grow, and heal through understanding different perspectives.
In this episode, Tomi, the Outkick Podcast Host of “Tomi Lahren is Fearless,” opens up about why her beliefs run so deep, the cost of speaking out, and her hopes for the future. She even shares where she doesn’t align with extreme conservative views, offering insights that might surprise you.
If you’re ready to hear an honest, unfiltered conversation and step outside your comfort zone, this episode is for you. Tune in and let’s learn together!

Hit songwriter, Emily Weisband, joins Caroline for this episode of Get Real. When Caroline heard Emily’s “Champagne & Sushi” she literally hit her knees and wept. She has never in her life felt more seen. She has lost 5 pregnancies and it is truly the saddest, most isolating, devastating experience, that you go through ALL ALONE as a woman. Yes of course your partner, family and friends are there and ache with you, but it’s a heartbreaking solo journey. Emily wrote a song that captures every feeling a woman feels who goes through miscarriage. It’s a true masterpiece. But that’s what Emily does. To Caroline, and many others in the Nashville creative community, Emily is a musical genius. Her ability to capture raw human emotion and put it into song takes your breath away. She has written songs for Chris Young, Sheryl Crow, Anne Wilson, Jeremy Camp, Dasha, Danielle Bradbury, Lily Rose, Gabby Barrett, Camila Cabello, Hillary Scott, Noah Cyrus, Lauren Alaina, FGL, Sam Hunt, Dan & Shay, Old Dominion, Keith Urban, Darius Rucker to name a few. And with each song she writes, she lets the listener see themselves in the story, feel seen and a little less alone. It was so healing having such a raw real conversation with Emily all about the real, raw, often painful yet beautiful life experience.

Country trio, Runaway June, joins Caroline Hobby on this episode of Get Real. From balancing touring, motherhood, friendship and marriage, these three ladies do it all. Jennifer Wayne brought her daughter along to the pod and talks about navigating life as a single mom post-divorce. Jennifer and Caroline, who competed on the Amazing Race together and were formerly in a country music group, take a walk down memory lane and recount some of their wilder days. Natalie Stovall dives into her health journey after a routine procedure turned into weeks in critical care. And newest member Stevie Woodward talks about her experience joining the already established group. The ladies discuss the immense pressures there are as a touring act in the industry to stay young and available, and how having a kid almost feels like an act of rebellion as a touring female artist.

Matt would get out of college classes and drive himself and Leigh, who was still in high school, up to Dallas to perform and that’s how they got their start. The two detail their love / hate relationship with “Kiss Me” which was a massive hit early in their career, prompted by tv/movie placements like “She’s All That” and “Dawson’s Creek.” They discuss getting a massive break with David Letterman having them on his show to perform and then pulling them in for an unplanned interview. Leigh and Matt share about the pressures of fame and success and going through a season of burn out and more.

This week, I get real with Andre Paradis. Andre has been studying people his entire life. His knowledge expands across all types of subjects such as love/life, relationships between men and women, workplace dynamic negotiations, effective communication strategies/tools, and more. I’ve been sitting on airing this podcast because it was a little triggering for me. Andre really pushed me into a conversation I’m not usually comfortable having: the roles men and women should play, and why relationships are failing as we have been fighting against nature. I was triggered several times because I am all about women being equal to men and having the same opportunities and space to hold power. But, Andre makes some great points and really made me think. The roles of women and men in nature have never been the same, yet, they are both equally important. He hits on a lot of points that made me cringe, but I do feel that at the root of what he is saying, there is some really valid truth. In this episode we cover...
• The 3 types of males: Men, Guys, and Boys (Boys are the ones who are dangerous, not Men or Guys)
• Why femininity is the most powerful energy we possess
• Why equality does not work in love dynamics
• How to communicate effectively and respectfully
• Men and commitment....it's the opposite of what you think
Conversations like this are hard but I really learned so much after talking with Andre and hearing his knowledge and perspective. I would love to hear your thoughts on what he has to say!

Knowing this project would change her career, Ria didn’t think twice with her instant reply - “When do you need me?” She was right. Organizing Jen Atkin’s closet in 2019 did blow her business up. Today, Ria has worked with top-celebrity clients such as Chrissy Teigan, James Charles, and Paris Hilton. Ria got into organization because, well, she was messy by nature. As a mother of three, Ria felt chaotic and found resolve in decluttering and organizing her home.

Brooke is a show stopper. Her voice, her beauty, her heart, she is the full package. She walks me through her life journey… her dream of being a country singer her whole life… how she was living her dream and was making waves on country radio… at the same time she realized she was truly madly deeply insanely in love with a woman, her record rep, Hillary Hoover. Brooke wasn’t sure if she would be accepted in country music as a gay woman so she kept it a secret for years. She developed serious stomach ulcers and was withering away from anxiety and stress. Her doctor said if she didn’t deal with what was plaguing her mind, her body may fail her. That moment Brooke decided to be honest. She wrote a new EP, shot stunning sexy music videos with her girlfriend (now fiancé) and stepped into her truth. Country music and the world has received her with open arms. She just sang Trisha Yearwood’s hit “Shes in love with the boy” with Trisha on the Opry but they changed the lyrics to “she’s in love with the girl.” Brooke is a beacon of light showing the way of how to unapologetically live the life your heart desires.

• How to be best friends and business partners
• How to say yes more often (but say no enough to make your yes count)

When I first moved to Nashville about 20 years ago, I remember being so intimidated by Missi. Not only was she a top publisher for the biggest songwriters in town, she also listened and found hit songs for Faith and Tim, Keith Urban and alllllll the greats! It was Missi who discovered “Breathe” for Faith; originally she pitched it to Tim, but he said Faith would crush it, we get into all sorts of backstories behind songs. She also found “Humble and Kind” for Tim…. On top of it all, she and her massive producer husband, Byron, are BFFs w Tim and Faith… Byron is Tim’s producer! So you can see why I was nervous around Missi when I first moved to town, she’s a legend! She shares soooo many stories of how she discovered hit songs, what it’s like working w top celebrities and the traits and work ethic that all icons have… Missi is a powerful, intuitive woman who is such an example of how to be a boss, a mother, a wife and a leader.

When you lay down on someone’s table for an hour every 2 weeks, for 3 +years straight, let’s just put it this way: you get to know someone. Danielle truly has changed the way I feel about my looks with her lash extensions. Everybody has their thing that they love, nails, hair, working out, clothes…. well mine is lashes. Once I started getting lash extensions, I felt like the self I always wanted to be. I just LOVE them. And Danielle and LASHOUT is truly the best. Over all the one on one, no distractions HOURS we have talked (my eyes are literally closed) while I’m getting lashes, I have learned a lot from Danielle. I have listened to her dreams of expanding her business, starting from scratch, and I have watched her make it happen. I have seen how she navigated and survived covid when her business had to completely shut down and then restructure. And she did it and thrived. I have watched her be heartbroken over her infertility journey (as was I) for years, and heard the defeat in her voice, and felt the sadness in her heart. And then I have watched her welcome her son into the world. I have seen her balance being the most intentional mom with along with the most intentional business owner. I have seen how she has shifted her priorities and created a new life balance after becoming a mom. I have grown and talked through so many life obstacles laying right there on Danielle’s table. This podcast covers it all. So grab a comfy seat, a coffee or beverage and enjoy some honest beauty salon talk with my good friend Danielle.

So I have been on a big physical and mental wellness journey. I’m so tired of having anxiety, and I have been seeking out cures. One of those remedies is FLOATING. Yep, you heard me right, floating. I have linked up with PURE SWEAT AND FLOAT STUDIO in Brentwood and the relief is truly instant. Pairing floating w the ultra healing infrared saunas, has helped me target all of this within my own body :
• Detoxification
• Weight loss
• Lower Blood Pressure
• Relaxation
• Pain Relief
• Cell Heatlh
• Immunity
• Wound Healing
• Anti-Aging
• Improved Circulation
Because of my incredible results, I had to interview the owner, Meredith, and get the nitty gritty details of how she started this studio, ALL the benefits, and why mental and physical health is something we all should be prioritizing. Years ago, during Meredith’s divorce, she found herself having panic attacks. She started seeking alternative treatment for them, and stumbled upon floating. Within a few floats and saunas, her panic attacks had vanished and clarity and peace and returned. She was so impacted and amazed by her results she started her own studio to help stress natural healing for physical and mental wellness. We get into her journey to wellness and how her life has blossomed through healing.

I love the way Cirby dresses. Her style and vibe completely speak to me. So I had to have her give me the mommy closet kick ass confident soulful rock n roll sexy mature and tasteful makeover that I have been desperately longing for since becoming a mom. I don’t know about you, but I lost my style and groove a little bit after having a child. I no longer want to wear everything as low as I can with as much cleavage and as tight and short as I can… Cirby’s slogan is “turn heads for a different reason.” That’s the vibe I want and Cindy helped me achieve. She can do it for you too. She does closet analysis and creates looks that you could never dream of from the clothes you ALREADY have and truly makes you feel like you will own the day. She also will curate and create a WOW look for you for any event. Clothes and how you present yourself makes you feel a certain way. I think one of the most empowering things a woman can do for herself, especially if she’s in a transition place in her life, is to feel good in her skin and her clothes. No matter what size or how old you are, you have the right and owe it to yourself to rock yo bad self! So listen to this podcast and hire Cirby if you can. We talk about how she and her sisters were a hot music trio, being a mama, how you know when to move to the next phase, and so much goodness! All you mamas and hard workin women out there, you are a queen and deserve to feel it and look it! Tune in now!

Scout experienced her first depressive episode at the age of 14 and was formally diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the age of 20. Living with a mental illness brought an onslaught of symptoms: anxiety, hypomania, depression, catatonia, psychosis, and suicidal ideation. Her perception of her life weighed down on her so poignantly that she dropped out of college, could not hold a job or internship, was hospitalized, experimented with medleys of prescription medication, and went through two outpatient programs.
One day her husband (then boyfriend) looked at her lovingly and said, “I don’t care if you’re depressed. If you are depressed and hopeful, I can be in this relationship. If you are depressed and hopeless, I can’t do this with you.”
That was the moment her life changed. She started infusing her life with hope and began to take radical responsibility for her emotional state. And after intense self-development work - support groups, holistic healing modalities, prayer, routines, and physical wellness, she found entrepreneurship. Through entrepreneurship, she learned to unconditionally love her life through the pain, challenges, and celebrations. She learned that she wanted to be here.
Today, Scout is the Founder and CEO of Scout's Agency, a female-focused PR agency that specializes in getting women as guests on podcasts. Over the last two years, the agency has served women like Catt Sadler, Kelley Baker, Jessica Zweig, Damona Hoffman, Lauren McGoodwin, Bala, Kelley Baker, and Rebecca Minkoff. Scout led the agency to a six figure revenue in its first year (2019) with a 250% growth in 2020. She is also the co-host of Okay Sis, a top-charted podcast most recently highlighted in Apple's New & Noteworthy collection, with her sister Mady where she openly documents her experience living with bipolar disorder.
And now that she has gotten to a place where she feels safe in her emotions and is not able to only function in society but thrive as an entrepreneur, she is putting all of her emotional tools, learnings, and wisdom into her debut book, The Emotional Entrepreneur, a 25 lesson emotional guidebook for women who want to pursue a life of purpose. These are the personal development tools she has garnered up to manage her mental illness but what surprised her the most is that she realized her mental health tools also became her superpower in business.

Hayley and I met when we rocking out (and falling in love w lead singers) of the underground rock scene in Nashville about 15 years ago. Her husband is Ricky Young, who now is in the critically acclaimed band, Wild Feathers. There was a group of rockers who had a cult following in Nashville and would play every weekend. Ricky was a part of that scene, so was my hubs Michael and his band, A Thousand Horses. So Hayley and I have truly lived the Penny Lane life for sure. I loved having this conversation bc all these years later, Hayley and I are still in love with those rocker lead singers that we met almost 20 years ago. But now we both are married, both have little girls, and have lived soooooo much life. Hayley unexpectedly lost her father at age 25 and we really dive into the healing power of therapy and how that changed her life and allowed her to get to the other side of grief. We talk a lot about therapy and why it is so important to find someone to talk to instead of stuffing all the pain and trauma you can’t process on your own. Once you can actually process it with professional help, then you can truly live freely and joyfully.

Brooke is a show stopper. Her voice, her beauty, her heart, she is the full package. She walks me through her life journey… her dream of being a country singer her whole life… how she was living her dream and was making waves on country radio… at the same time she realized she was truly madly deeply insanely in love with a woman, her record rep, Hillary Hoover. Brooke wasn’t sure if she would be accepted in country music as a gay woman so she kept it a secret for years. She developed serious stomach ulcers and was withering away from anxiety and stress. Her doctor said if she didn’t deal with what was plaguing her mind, her body may fail her. That moment Brooke decided to be honest. She wrote a new EP, shot stunning sexy music videos with her girlfriend (now fiancé) and stepped into her truth. Country music and the world has received her with open arms. She just sang Trisha Yearwood’s hit “Shes in love with the boy” with Trisha on the Opry but they changed the lyrics to “she’s in love with the girl.” Brooke is a beacon of light showing the way of how to unapologetically live the life your heart desires.

I absolutely had the most fascinating and stimulating conversation with Ginger about God, life, unjustness and suffering, and how to find happiness in day to day life no matter what your life looks like…….
This is what Ginger’s new book, CHASING WONDER is all about….. Life is meant to be a grand adventure, and in CHASING WONDER, Ginger helps you set the plan for this big adventure called LIFE! You can certainly survive without adventure--keep your head down and live in your comfort zone, doing only what you must to maintain the day-to-day. But It should surprise and wow us on a regular basis. The problem is our days are so full of routine, monotony, and fear, that it is easier to stay on that treadmill of boredom than it is to step off into the unknown and discover something wonderful.
Stache firmly believes that we are at our best when we live with an attitude that life is an adventure--an outlook that sets the stage by believing that every moment has the potential to bring something amazing, a sight to behold, or a lesson to be learned.

This duo made up of Mother, Suzanne and daughter Grace, tell me what it’s like to dive head first into starting Love + One International, a 501(c)3 non-profit, providing access to life-saving medical care and rehabilitative services to children and families in Uganda. They share the trials they have faced, how the only road map they have followed has been God’s open doors and the conviction in their hearts.
When Mike and Suzanne Mayernick, parents of eight, adopted their daughter JosieLove from Uganda in 2009, they had no idea how much her life would change the direction of their own lives.
JosieLove, just three years old, had malaria, tuberculosis and was HIV positive – but after just a few months of receiving the love, attention, and medical care she needed, she blossomed into a healthy child. Watching JosieLove’s transformation sparked a fire inside their family to commit to nurturing other sick children through love and proper medical care in order to help them thrive, so Suzanne and her eldest daughter Grace founded Love + One International. You wanna hear this episode. It’s life changing on how to answer God’s call on your heart and the life giving rewards of love received when you do.

I’ll be honest, I don’t like a lot of comedians. I hate humor at others expense and I don’t like really dirty humor at all. It makes me cringe. But Josh is really funny, to me, and to millions. He has a way of turning everyday troubles into something really silly to laugh about. He takes the sting out of living through his comedy routines bc he’s so hilarious about displaying how humans are all completely bat shit, so you might as well have a chuckle about it. He also has major soul and cares about leaving people better than he found them. This interview could have lasted all day bc we just were rolling and cracking up, breaking down life to the core. Josh talks about the cut throat climb to the top of the comedy world while being a single dad to 3, finding love and owning his lane, and how an encounter with a homeless person on the street holding 2 tacos changed his entire life perspective.

This interview was super emotionally intense and real. Holly is a survivor of human trafficking, abuse, and addiction. When she hit rock bottom, she found herself homeless and crying out on the floor of a public bathroom. She got real with me about when her childhood abuse began, and how that affected so much of her life thereafter. She talked about signs to look for with your children and why it’s so important to pay attention to changes in your child’s behavior. She then walked me through her journey into trafficking. I didn’t realize that most women become trafficked through a boyfriend or someone close to them. Now she is truly thriving in life. She is a force of light and goodness. Holly is the Founder/CEO of a company helping other women break out of the dark cycle. Sanctuary Project is a survivor-run nonprofit jewelry enterprise, based in Austin, that provides meaningful employment and job training to women who have survived trafficking, violence and addiction. The jewelry is stunning and carried in Target! Holly is now a wife, mom author and speaker. She and I spent the most magical day together with our families after our interview; I am blessed to know Holly and anyone who listens to this episode will be blessed by her story!

In her Hollywood career, she has choreographed and graced stages with artists such as Tracee Ellis Ross, Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Foxx, Kanye West, Stevie Wonder, Mary J. Blige and many more. The Atlanta resident was most recently seen in Coming 2 America as well as Genius: Aretha. Expressing herself through dance is something that has always come natural to her; and now, it’s her words that are moving the masses in her first book The Game of Life: Releasing the Weight When God Says Wait. Dacía opens up about her experience with infertility as she takes us through her wait journey. Dacía hopes that by sharing her story, it will normalize speaking about an issue that affects about nine percent of men and 11 percent of women of reproductive age in the United States.
While this book covers her very personal experience with the topic, The Game of Life offers so much more and is relatable to everyone feeling stuck whether it has to do with dreams not coming true or pressures they may face from family and society about relationships or career. The reasons may be different, but the waiting game still feels the same.

Derek Drye was 30 years old when he remembers hearing his mother's voice for the very first time. “I found these videotapes of my mom that I didn't know existed," the North Carolina native quietly tells PEOPLE about the memories he discovered back in 2018 of his late mother, who died by suicide when he was just a baby. "I had seen pictures and stuff, but I had never heard that Carolina drawl that she had, until I pressed play." Their song “War” was born from that heartache and the music video features the only footage Derek has ever seen of his mom. Powerful. Derek told me that writing “War” was very healing for him and his family, bc where words often fail, music can heal. That’s what the Dryes do... they use the pain and experiences and dreams of their life and write music that gets in your soul and moves it. Their new song “Whites Creek” is about finding God in their dream home. The crazy thing is, they hadn’t even bought this house when they wrote the song, they just knew they were going to plant their roots and build their family in whites creek in this future house. The Dryes are vessels for God and use their music and life to spread His glory, even in their darkest moments. This episode will leave you inspired and will remind you how God truly makes His message out of every mess and heartache we experience if you let Him in.

This guy I declare has a direct line to God and is using his gifts of lyrics and music to make one of the most impactful, important EPs in Country Music right now, “My Way.” And that’s exactly it, he’s making a new lane for himself and it’s already making waves. Tyler Hubbard, RaeLynn, Lauren Alaina, Russell Dickerson, Matt Stell and Dustin Lynch all have collaborations on Lathan’s project. He’s not a “country artist,” he’s a”positive artist” and his motto is God, Love and Music. His life all changed the moment he was held at gunpoint... after living through that he committed his entire being to serving God and shining light in the dark places of the world. I felt MOVED by the Spirit throughout this entire interview. I talk to tons of spiritually charged humans, but there is something so powerful about Lathan, you can’t help but know you are in God’s presence when you talk to him. Dig into the episode and get his EP, our now “MY WAY.”

Every day, Jessica shows up for the world as authentically “her” as possible. But it wasn’t always that way. Through most of her 20s, she struggled with body dysmorphia, romantic codependency, massively low self-esteem and thousands of dollars of credit card debt. It took a lot of therapy, deep spiritual journeys, self-work and most of all, self-responsibility to finally realize that she was out of alignment with her true self and that she didn’t have to be everything to everyone. And in fact, doing that was robbing her of living her best life.
So instead, she decided to zero in on who she was at her core and let that woman shine—a world-traveling big-thinking visionary with goddess energy and a superpower for helping others discover their unique essence. She created her own personal brand and realized that when she started showing up as her every day, my whole world changed. Life became infinitely better, and she became infinitely more … “her.” In 2014, her personal branding company, SimplyBe. Agency, was born. Her mission? When you set yourself free to Simply Be, you set the world free. She just released her first best selling book, as well as hosting a top podcast, speaking around the world and empowering women in everything she does!

Lori McKenna has written some of the most important songs in country music like “Girl Crush” by Little Big Town, and “Humble and Kind” by Tim McGraw. She has won Song of the Year 2 times and Grammys. The thing that is most remarkable about Lori is her ability to see the story and song in everyday living. She sees the beauty in it all and writes it in such a way that makes us feel to our bones and know we are alive. She kept mentioning how lucky she was during this interview... but I think her success in her career and marriage and life is so much more than luck. It’s her perspective and willingness to go all in. Lori is a poet and a truth teller. She’s a mother of 5 kids and a wife to Gene, her sweetheart since they were just kids themselves. Lori has a new album out “Balladeer” and it is a masterpiece, just like all of her other albums. Anyone who knows of Lori and listens to her music and her sing knows she’s got a gift straight from heaven. She’s one of those people who you just know you are in the presence of greatness when you’re around her, yet she doesn’t even realize it. That’s what makes her magic.

Mickey and I grew up in the same hometown of Waco Texas. We actually played basketball against each other in grade school. It’s very nerve racking for me to have real conversations about race as a white woman with two of my black friends. To be honest, I have avoided topics of race my whole life bc I’m scared I will say something wrong. But the point is to start talking and to be a part of the change. Amara and Mickey talk about being black females in the country music industry, how much love they have for this community, and their dreams for genre. Mickey explains the story behind her powerful new single “Black Like Me.”

When you see Katelyn Brown, you can’t help but stare. She’s drop dead gorgeous. Then you get to know her, and realize she has the sweetest, most playful spirit. It was so fascinating to learn about her musical past. When she was 18, she linked up with Justin Timberlake’s manager and moved to his musical compound in Orlando FL that he created for all of his artists and boy bands to live and develop their talents. At the compound there were recording studios, rehearsal rooms and basically anything you need as an artist at your beck and call. Katelyn lived here for years. During this time she started working with a producer out of Atlanta that was also working with a new young artist, Kane Brown. Katelyn met Kane serendipitously when she was shooting a music video and did not feel chemistry with the actor cast for her love interest. Her manger quickly thought of Kane to take the role, and from that moment on, sparks were flying between the two. In this episode we talk all about their enchanting wedding, how she’s overcoming her fear of flying, instagram dance battles with Kane, and life at home and on the road. Tune in now to hear Katelyn’s incredible journey and exciting love story.

Stevie is everybody’s best friend. Or at least everybody wants to be her best friend. Her smile and laugh are infectious. Then she drops her sense of humor and good time on you, and you can’t be anything short of glamoured by her spirit. Stevie talks to me openly about how life has been amazing and awful at the same time. While in the middle of battling breast cancer, her husband won songwriter of the year. While feeling her worst, she and her husband’s publishing company, Rhythm House (under Jay-Z’s Entertainment Company), started thriving and bringing in multiple #1 hits. Stevie also goes into vivid detail about the time she met Beyoncé at the company Christmas party and talked to her after multiple tequilas... they basically are best friends now lol! What I love about Stevie is her honesty and humor about life. She knows how to take things in stride. She’s not scared of dealing with the truth. She also knows how to really have fun and enjoy life no matter what season or struggle she may be facing, she finds the laughter and light!

Julie is an inspiration. She is incredibly beautiful and driven. She tells me about her journey to anchoring KWTX, the news source for Waco, Texas. What really stood out to me in this interview was that Julie is never afraid of being told “no.” She tells me all sorts of amazing stories of how her hustle, determination and belief in herself are what really made opportunities come to life for her, including how she landed an in person interview with George W. Bush in the White House during his final weeks in office. She walks me through how she handles her nerves and trusts her instincts and why she isn’t afraid to let herself feel the stories she covers, but also how she uses her platform to help the community she serves. We also talk about how motherhood has redefined what success really looks like and how she finds balance with so many plates in the air.

This beauty just had a birthday and turned 25, so everybody send her a happy birthday message! Lex is young and wise. She follows her gut instinct and intuition. She isn’t scared to take big, scary leaps for life and love. Lex and Jimmie were set up to meet at his show from mutual friends. Lex is a nurse and came straight from work in her scrubs, naturally beautiful and confident without even trying. It was pretty immediate sparks for them. The first car trip they took, Jimmie leaned over and kissed her at a stoplight. Their instant chemistry gives Simon and Daphne from Bridgerton a run for their money. The next show he invited Lex to, he changed the words to his song to say “kissing at a stoplight,” then he walked through the crowd and laid one on Lex. I love their love story. It’s full of passion and willingness to dive all in. Lex shares with me what she’s learned from being a mama, how life has changed in so many ways the past year, the lessons learned from being a Nurse and handling life and death plus the rocket ship ride of Jimmie’s fame. Lex is so down to earth and relatable while being a total smoke-show sweet heart.

This is a spectacular conversation with Lauren. She starts by BREAKING BIG NEWS WITH ME (yes, she told me first, and it’s so exciting :), then we run through her life and journey... How she got to American Idol, which led her to her incredible Country Music Career with multiple number 1 songs, Dancing with the Stars, and tons of accolades.. Then we deep dive. She shares with me the struggles of fame, especially as a teen and the cruel attacks people made on her and her body. Those painful comments led her to intense body image struggles and bulimia. We connect over this bc I also struggled with bulimia and body image in my younger years. Lauren explains why she finally got honest about it, and how she decided to stop playing perfect and be true to herself and the freedom that has come with that. Lauren’s beauty and talent are breathtaking. But the way she shares her full heart and soul and story, the struggles and the glory, is the kind of role model that young girls all around the world are so desperately needing to see. Lauren is a light that I wish I had known when I was finding my way as a young girl. I have so much respect, admiration and love for Lauren. I can’t wait for you to hear this candid conversation with a true angel and blessing to this earth.

Sara is the total package. Stunning, Unbelievably talented, Incredible mother and devoted wife, God fearing woman. Sara knows who she is and what matters to her. She doesn’t try to hide what’s important, where she stands, and she knows her priorities and is unapologetic about them. When we started talking, she was so down to earth and relatable that it felt like I was just talking to an old friend, not a top selling female country artist. We talked about how her game-changing debut album “Born to Fly” is celebrating 20 years. Her latest album “Copy That” is out now and it features her favorite classic songs, remade Sara Evans style. I think my favorite part of the interview was her talking about life on the road w babies and kids. She never asked permission to include her family in everything she has done. She just brought them along and made it work. I love that. So many times, especially as women, we feel like we can’t do it all at the same time, but Sara is a perfect example that you can have a happy marriage, beautiful children, and a thriving career all at once. This episode is packed with wisdom and truth bombs.

Marissa is a little earth angel. She is so beautiful to look at, but it’s her tender heart that just melts you. We talk about how being a hair stylist is next in line to be a therapist bc people sit in her chair and spill their guts. As one of the top stylists in her profession, she tells me how she manifested her dream career and started hustling for it in high school. She talks about navigating the pressure of working with celebrities and how she deals when a client leaves... it’s actually a pretty magical perspective. Marissa also talks about the art of conversation, and being a safe place for people to unload and share what’s on their minds and lives, bc after all, when people are going through a big life shift, the first thing anyone does is change their hair. “Don’t get bangs after a breakup,” she laughed! She tells me how dogs have changed her life and why she’s not stressing about dating, especially in the time of COVID.

Laine is a sweetheart. Hearing his story of how he won American Idol was so refreshing. Growing up, he would ride his 4-wheeler into the woods and practice singing, where no one could hear him. When he finally sang for his mama, she encouraged him to try out for American Idol. So basically one of the first times he ever sang publicly was his try out. And the judges went wild over his voice. Luke Bryan picked him as the winner the first time he heard him sing. Laine is a country boy and sings about what he knows and from his heart. He is so unassuming about his success and fame. He shares with me how he overcomes fear, his secret weapon for winning American Idol, advice for anyone wanting to win American Idol and his new music that just dropped.

These guys are worldwide sensations. They have travelled to over 70 countries and shook hands with President Obama and the Pope. As a matter of fact, Flight Time wrote a best seller book called “Projects, Popes and Presidents,” where he chronicles his life growing up in the Projects, witnessing domestic violence, to chasing his dream of basketball which led him literally around the world. Big Easy also grew up witnessing violence and destruction (he lived through Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and lost everything). I met these 2 guys when we raced on “The Amazing Race: All Stars.” They are the most positive, inspiring dudes you will ever meet. They met every challenge on “The Race” with the most optimistic attitude and the belief of success, as well as lending a helping hand to other teams along the way. They share so much insight for how they achieved their dreams, broke cycles, and are creating a new way of life for their families. They both shared how change starts in the family unit. They are shining examples of how anyone can live the life and future of their dreams, and as Flight Time says “Kindness is Free,” so spread it around like crazy!

They say “don’t meet your hero’s” bc it could be a major letdown. Well, thank God that wasn’t true w Ken Block, the lead singer for Sister Hazel. Sister Hazel is the SOUNDTRACK to my high school and college days. I must have played “Your Winter” on repeat several thousand times. It’s my favorite song in the universe. So when I got the chance to interview Ken, I geeked out. It was such an awesome interview and cool moment for me personally. Ken is so down to earth and very open and honest about all things, including family life, the realness of being in a band, addiction and relapse and the fear of losing his voice, how he found balance, what brings him most joy, and music of course. Ken is such a badass human. This episode was everything my super fan 20ish year old self dreamed it would be.

I met Kristen the day she moved to Nashville. She was working for my hubby’s record label and we met on Michael’s bus before a show... It was friendship love at first sight. Kristen is a force. She loves BIG and HARD. She wears her soul on her sleeve and she isn’t scared to be raw and real and really share and bare it. Connecting with others and realizing we are not alone in this life is her mission statement. On this episode we talk a longggg time about the power of manifesting and her tips for getting your mind right. We talk about marriage.

We talk about loss. She miscarried in between her 2 kids and the ache and love for that child is so strong. I also relate to that ache. We talk about her podcast “In Kristen We Brust,” and why she started it, and what it’s all about.

Neither one of our teams ended up winning, but we have a bond and stories for life (we share some great ones this episode). I’ve gotten to know his beautiful, precious wife Sara over these past 5 years and and have been so inspired by the way she shares her heart.

It’s called “Amen Sister Friend!” Make sure you go and give it a follow! She has me on as a guest and I LOVED our convo so much, to the point I am airing it on my podcast GET REAL today. We talk about inclusive spirituality, how to keep a positive mindset, growing through suffering and how I am trying to pave the way and cultivate space for my daughter Sunny. Sarah and I always have super deep, open minded convos and we really connect on a soul level. This episode covers some harder questions and may challenge you to examine your beliefs.

April is someone I greatly admire. Not only does she do incredible work and turn homes into masterpieces that create a feeling of comfort, peace and beauty, but she is WOKE as the young kids say. I have known April for quite some time now, she even helped me update/design my home when we first moved in 6 years ago. April has given me incredible advice as a new mother as well. We talk about that on this podcast. We talk about how balance, boundaries and self care are the cornerstones to her success. April has an all female staff. She is a trailblazer for women in the workplace by offering “personal hours” on top of vacation and sick days so the women and moms who work for her don’t have to feel guilty, explain, or lie about why they are leaving work early to go to their child’s game, function, etc... or why they need to have some self care hours to get their hair done. She’s all about keeping the full person of her employees and herself cared for and fueled. That’s what makes for her great and motivated staff. She’s also all about playing into and embracing your strengths while being grateful and supportive of others who thrive in your weak zones. April has built her business around healthy boundaries and respect and she does not budge when it comes to her daughters. Her time with them is sacred and she is so intentional to have worked turned off and blocked off so she can be the present mom that she desires to be. She also shares the DIY tips that everyone wants to know who can’t afford a top designer for their home.

Shauna laughs when she tells me how surreal it was to be holding Robert Downing JR’s hand, while on set to one of the biggest Marvel movies. Shauna is a top stunt woman to movies like The Avengers and Thor. What’s so intriguing about Shauna beyond her success and talent is her belief and understanding of God and understanding her own manifesting and healing power. And she has the life story to prove it.

Laney is someone I love and look up to tremendously. She is an incredible wife to hit songwriter and producer Corey Crowder, an inspiring mother, daughter, sister and friend. She works hard to find and bring God and love to all that she does. She recently launched “Life in the Wheat Field,” a weekly virtual Bible study on Instagram. This all started from a vision she had of herself in a wheat field (it’s an amazing story, tune into hear). After her vision, she said God truly chased her down with signs and nudges on her heart plus experiences that made it beyond clear she had to take action. A lot of Bible studies can turn people off for various reasons. What I love about Laney and “Life in the Wheat Field” is she’s not trying to preach or be perfect. Her only goal is to help as many people as she can live a life of true abundance and see the abundance they have in their life right in front of them.

Linda and I had a fast connection. As many of you know, I struggled to get pregnant with Sunny, experiencing loss and about a year of waiting, wondering if a baby was in our future. That was one of the most depressing years of my life. I have so many friends who are on a very similar, emotional journey to motherhood. Some of my friends have had a lot of success with IVF, others have not. I have been wanting to have this conversation for some time now with a trained professional about the ins and out of fertility from an exert’s point of view. What I love about Linda is she is a judgment free zone. She knows motherhood looks different for every woman and it is her mission to walk along side each of her clients and find the best road for them. Often times when you are in a doctors office, it is hard to ask your burning, vulnerable questions... and with fertility, many times women have to make huge decisions about with to do w embryos with no time to think or process. Linda is that comfort every women needs in this situation. She is the safe place to get answers to the hard, emotional questions. This interview offers up SO MUCH wisdom to any woman who is looking for wisdom and guidance during one of the most challenging times.

Cannon and I have grown up and shared our whole life together. We reminisce about how our parents even let us move to Europe together for a summer to study abroad at Cambridge!

Meg really does rock. We met on Instagram and really connected just recently when I was posting about having a sty on my eye. So many people wrote in and told me remedies to try, but Meg told me how to look inward and heal from within myself. I know, a lot of people think that kind of talk is crazy, but I don’t. I believe that we all are a force field from God and have so much to offer this world, including the ability heal ourselves and others. We just have to uncover the truth. Meg dives in SO DEEP to questions that have been wrecking me like “why are we here, why do we suffer, understanding what our physical ailments mean, how she parents using this inner knowledge and soooo much more. This episode is AMAZING! Meg is a manifesting coach and has so much amazing wisdom to offer.

Lori said something to me that I never would have known to think of when it comes to designing a house, and I’ll never forget it. She said “ I’m OBSESSED w the walk from the garage to the kitchen island, bc a woman does that countless times in a day. By the time she gets to the island I want her to be hands free.” Woah. Mind blown. How does one even know how to think that thought? But that’s Lori. Not only is her style and design classic yet bold, traditional yet wild and modern leaving you breathless, she is all about function and comfort first. Throughout the interview she said multiple times “if it’s not comfortable and functional then I’m not doing it.” I LOVE THAT. Lori tells me all about the responsibility of designing top of the line houses and how trust is the most important factor. She also breaks down her life principals and values. Lori is so advanced when it comes to how she thinks and acts in the world. She is level headed and a thought leader for sure. She also is insanely hilarious. I had more fun on this interview getting to know Lori. I know you will love this one.

Emily is a go-getter. She puts herself out there and isn’t afraid to jump for the stars. That’s exactly what she did when she applied to be a host in NYC while still living in her small town... but she put on the application that she already lived in NYC. When she got the job a couple weeks later, she made it happen and moved to New York in a whirlwind. We both share the beliefs that hustling, hard work, plus talent and a great attitude are essentials to success. I love Emily’s drive and journey. She also tells me why the tiktok generation may just save us all.

For this comedian and content creator, comedy is life. She has spent years of routinely embarrassing herself, improv classes, some stints as an amateur standup comic with unrelenting dedication. She just wrote a book Funny How it Works Out, sharing her life lessons and story, which recounts her wackiest moments, questionable decisions, lessons learned over the years, romantic tales, and the screenplay that is the story of her whirlwind marriage and divorce in hopes that she can help others find the lessons in their journeys so that they too can grow from their pasts and manifest their best lives. This interview is vulnerable, raw and so heartfelt. I left this interview feeling like had known Manon my whole life. We also talk about how she and Jen Aniston have become BFFs over Instagram.

It was a thrill to interview Rebecca. I have been a big fan of her massive brand for years. It was awesome to have the chance to get inside her brain and understand what inspired her to go big for her dream when the odds were against her. Plus learning how she has pivoted her brand to focusing sales online during COVID and ended up having one of the brands most successful years was so inspiring. Instead of feeling defeated with the global shutdown due to corona virus and the impact that had on her business, she charted a new course where she could thrive in this new normal. That’s what really stands out to me about Rebecca. She is a trailblazer. She doesn’t wait or want everything to be perfect, she makes good with all the resources she has and then works her ass off and hires an exceptional team to execute her vision. I love that she believes so much in the team mentality. She knows she can’t do it all; she shared with me about what she looks for when she hires an employee and then how she trusts them to do their job. We also talked about how motherhood has changed her outlook on work and what inspired her to launch her SUPERWOMAN podcast featuring some of the most inspiring women from Katie Couric to Maria Sharapova.

Becca Stevens is one of the women I look up to the most in this world. She is an Episcopalian Priest, she has written a dozen books, she is a mother of 3 grown outstanding young talented men, a wife to Marcus Hummon who is one of the most profound hit songwriters in town, she is a survivor of abuse and a safe haven for women who need healing and refuge. In this episode I broke down in tears several times bc I am so overwhelmed with all of the suffering in the world right now, especially children suffering. I think I broke down bc Becca is that holy, safe place that I knew would hold my sadness and fear, yet also guide me back to God. After the interview I couldn’t stop thinking about how much she serves those in need and suffering. I kept wondering “how does she hold all of this suffering for everyone and stay so light?” I am so burdened by sad news and it often time all-consumes me. Becca blesses all those she comes in contact with, speaks healing into their life, and turns something that feels destroyed into God’s glory. She has seen so much pain, yet she never loses faith and her love for God. Instead, she sees the beauty in life and freely expresses her sacred feelings. Lately she has been sharing her rants about life. They have deeply moved me and given me the confidence to share my own rants. This episode is a gift. Becca is a gift.

Canaan broke onto the country music scene w a #1 hit “Love you Like That.” He has weathered the ups and downs of the music industry and now has a new label home and music out under Flodia Georgia Line’s label Round Here Records. A lot of our conversation was centered around trusting God’s plan and guidance and being grateful for the blessings we have and what we have learned from highs and lows and what faith means to us. We talked about Christy and Canaan’s love story. They met at a concert and felt sparks immediately. The timing was off in the beginning but eventually the stars aligned after a blind date weekend (their story is pretty epic). Christy is a nurse practitioner and she talks about being on the front lines of the heath service during the pandemic and how she deals with her fear and practices safety, especially since they have a 9 month old baby girl at home. This couple is a shining light of faith, love, talent, perseverance, commitment and rising to whatever occasion God calls them.

When Kady was only 22 years old she decided to bet on herself and open up a Purbarre franchise in Nashville (purebarre is a type of workout designed to give women their perfect body). She had just graduated college and didn’t have the money to do it so she borrowed it from her parents and her newly signed NFL friend. Kady and I laughed about how naivety is bliss sometimes bc at 22 she was fearless of failure, whereas the older and more jaded we get, it is sometimes hard to take big risks. But Kady went all in and it paid off big time. Her first studio had over 100 people emailing to sign up even before the doors were open. Over 10 years and 7 studios later, Kady tells me what she has learned about being a boss, what’s most important in hiring exceptional employees, how her gut insight is the voice she ALWAYS listens to, plus we talk about her new marriage, baby on the way, and balance.

Plus navigating racism with 4 boys and a bi-racial marriage.I met Curry when I was hosting a panel of women, for women, at Collective 615 (all women’s workspace. Curry came in and owned the place. She was funny, bright, so real and honest immediately, talented, and she spoke her vision, journey and faith to the all women audience with her whole heart. This conversation is straight up real talk. Besides talking about her passion for flowers, arrangements, decorating and design (which she is the bomb at all!!), Curry shares with me about her thoughts on divorce and moving into the next chapter of life as a single mother of 4 boys. We talk about how she’s learning to heal her soul and love herself inside and out. She walks me through real fears she faces for herself and her boys by being black. We talk about how she handles heartbreak, sadness, pain, injustice and why she is prioritizing her health and “me” time. We talk about how we have to keep coming back to love, and how God always makes a message from the mess. She shares with me her love of Disney, how she parents each boy differently due to each personality, black joy, and how she is finally realizing her true worth and talents.

Last year Drake was in the middle of a set, when he had a stroke and collapsed on stage. He was rushed to the nearest hospital where doctors frantically worked to stop his brain from bleeding. He has a condition called AVM.

In this interview, Drake and Alex relive the night of his accident and all the miracles along the way that truly saved his life. They talk about his healing process and how God has been so present every step of the way. Drake and Alex are a couple that is changing the world with their faith.

If you were ever doubting if there is a God, listen to this episode and know for sure God is real. That is the message Drake and Alex want to share with the world through their story.

Lori McKenna has written some of the most important songs in country music like “Girl Crush” by Little Big Town, and “Humble and Kind” by Tim McGraw. She has won Song of the Year 2 times and Grammys. The thing that is most remarkable about Lori is her ability to see the story and song in everyday living. She sees the beauty in it all and writes it in such a way that makes us feel to our bones and know we are alive. She kept mentioning how lucky she was during this interview... but I think her success in her career and marriage and life is so much more than luck. It’s her perspective and willingness to go all in. Lori is a poet and a truth teller. She’s a mother of 5 kids and a wife to Gene, her sweetheart since they were just kids themselves. Lori has a new album out “Balladeer” and it is a masterpiece, just like all of her other albums. Anyone who knows of Lori and listens to her music and her sing knows she’s got a gift straight from heaven. She’s one of those people who you just know you are in the presence of greatness when you’re around her, yet she doesn’t even realize it. That’s what makes her magic.

Kim is one of the kindest, most empathetic people I have had the pleasure of being friends with now for almost a decade. She has deep faith. She is fiercely loved by her family and friends and she fiercely loves them back, HARD. Her mother and father taught her good values and had her and her 2 older brothers in church at least 3 times a week and shared family meals daily. And her mother is a prayer warrior who believes in glory. Kim is smart. She is a veterinarian. We met at Barry’s Boot camp almost a decade ago and bonded over our love of intense working out (a past life to me now haha). This convo is so inspiring. Kim shares how her childhood was truly the dream and goal for us all as humanity. All walks of life, every race and color, loving together with respect and harmony on a military base. What a world to live in! Kim tells me how she has recently felt fear just for being black. She is a traveling vet and is in Utah for an extended time working at a clinic. But bc of COVID, she has to walk to patients cars that don’t recognize her or know she’s their vet. She said it has been the most difficult thing she has ever experienced seeing people respond with fear to her just bc she is a black woman they don’t know approaching them. This episode offers so much love and insight and we share some fun laughs about our love of tequila and wine.

Ashley has always loved fashion since she was a little girl, learning how to sew from her grandma who is one of her biggest inspirations. Growing up plus size, Ashley often felt very frustrated that there were no clothes out there to reflect her self expression of how she felt on the inside... she longed for clothes to wear that were fun, in fashion, and told the story she wanted to tell about her personality. So since they didn’t exist, she started making her own. That journey led her to Project Runway where she became the first person to win for designing plus size. After winning, she got her own line at JCPenny and was flooded with opportunities... at the same time she decided she wanted to get weight loss surgery to feel better and healthier. She said it was very difficult being criticized for this decision and losing deals on top of it bc people thought she was “selling out.” This led Ashley to a period of feeling lost and having to reevaluate. We talk about why she started teaching “self love” courses and how she has found her way in fashion making custom masks and offering sewing classes and flower crown courses to teach others how to design and create. Ashley’s story is one of determination, strength, beauty, inclusivity, creativity and paving her own way.

Lokelani, “Loke” for short, is a chef who has travelled the world learning about how food ties feelings and history together while triggering emotions. Over the past 4 years, she has created over 300 ice cream flavors and has her own brand, Saturated Ice Cream. She recently posted this: “I have a deep fondness for nostalgia, it’s been the most potent ingredient that I use. Nostalgia and ice cream are a stunning combination. Food connects all of us. Don’t ever underestimate its power. Through ice cream, I started a journey into its history. Stepping into a world that I didn’t even know existed.” Loke tells me how influential her grandmother was in teaching her how to cook. She talks about how she is obsessed with finding vintage cookbooks and recreating old recipes into her ice cream. She has a flavor called “Juneteenth” that is “for our past, present and future.” It’s raspberry, hibiscus and lime. The color is red to pay homage to lives lost and blood shed. Loke talks about how we all can positively impact the Black Lives Matter movement by taking inventory of our lives and seeing where we have an outlet to be the change.

Gay Gaddis is a very close family friend. She has literally watched me grow up. Her son Ben introduced my sister to her husband. Now that I am a grown woman, I have had the chance to really understand what a badass Gay is. She started T3, the largest owned female owned digital marketing agency in the country, based out of Austin Texas. She is self made and overcame many obstacles in a man’s world, but always learned how to work smarter, more thoughtful and outside of the box. As an employer of many women, and a mother herself, she quickly realized being a parent should not stop you from being a successful working professional. So she created UNDER, a program that allowed parents to bring their kids to work. That’s the thing with Gay. She doesn’t view family and work as 2 separate entities. She wants her employees to be fulfilled and she takes the time to find their strengths. If she hires someone for one reason but realizes they work better on another team, she pays attention and moves them to where they thrive. She is also an artist, painting many Texas landscapes, an author of COWGIRL POWER, a book written to help women develop personal power and lead like fearless cowgirls, and a rancher. Gay offers so much wisdom to women especially about how to preserve, find your way and thrive in big industry.

“If we don’t solve this, we are going to implode. This is the last chance for the change... The mess is everything. This is physical disease, moral disease, spiritual disease.... social disease... environmental disease.. its all come to a full head at the same time, and guess what? We don’t have a choice.” These wise words came from my friend Toni. She is a black woman who grew up w a civil right activist mother who actually attended school with Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King. Toni is smart. She is wise. She is successful. She is beautiful inside and out. She told me a story about how she thought she was getting pulled over recently while driving and the fear she had for “driving while black...” She ran me through the check list a black person must think about while being pulled over, even if they are completely innocent. She gives a detailed breakdown of where the systemic racism lives in America and why she has hope that the young people may actually be the change we need in this world.

This interview was emotional, inspiring, gut wrenching, raw and full of faith. No parent should ever have to bury their own child. The pain is too much to bare. Last week marked 1 year since River Kelly tragically died in Amber and Granger Smith’s pool. They had a fence and lock and all the precautions. It just happened so fast and silently. Amber tells me how adventurous River was, how sweet and kind he was; always picking her wild flowers and drying her eyes if she would pretend to be sad. Amber walks through the day the accident happened. She talks about her faith, and how she and Granger and their other 2 kids are still finding joy in life, even though Amber said “she may never be truly happy again.” The amount of strength and courage Amber has to talk about River’s death, to still find beauty in life, to be able to go on and want to help spread awareness to other parents about water safety with children, so no other parent has to experience this heartbreak, is just plain amazing. Amber is a shining light to this world of finding hope in the darkest places and never losing faith in God.

I am so lucky to be best friends with Amara. She is wise, calm, beautiful, thoughtful, talented, grounded in faith and purpose, open and giving, just like her mother. She teaches me so much on a daily basis. But especially during this time where the world is crying out “Black Lives Matter,” it has meant the world to me that she would come on my podcast, now for the 3rd time, and this time join me with her mother Norma, participating in these uncomfortable, heavy conversations about racism. I am NO EXPERT and am very naive in my ways on what the black culture has lived through and what they are currently going through. But I am learning and I can’t just sit on the sidelines. We talked about the movies “Just Mercy,” and “Thirteenth” and their powerful and painful messages. I encourage all my followers to watch those movies. I hope this episode moves you to do better, be better and learn.

Mickey and I grew up in the same hometown of Waco Texas. We actually played basketball against each other in grade school. It’s very nerve racking for me to have real conversations about race as a white woman with two of my black friends. To be honest, I have avoided topics of race my whole life bc I’m scared I will say something wrong. But the point is to start talking and to be a part of the change. Amara and Mickey talk about being black females in the country music industry, how much love they have for this community, and their dreams for genre. Mickey explains the story behind her powerful new single “Black Like Me.”

I want my platform and podcast to be a place to get inspired, to learn, to better ourselves so we do better in the world. It has always been important to me that every story I share on my podcast is one of hope, overcoming, inspiration and leaves a messages that encourages us all to love more, hope more, believe that better days are ahead, and that we all have the ability to live a life of accomplishing our dreams. Right now in America, the conversation can no longer be ignored that black men and women are not given the same treatment as white men and women. I have always been non-racist, but that is not enough anymore. We have to lock hands and walk arm and arm in this conversation with our black brothers and sisters. We have to not stand for anything less than absolute equality. Black artists and voices need to be heard and seen more than ever right now. I hope this Thursday series I’m doing w one of my best friends Amara Hall (spoken word artist and poet) who is a black woman, will shed some light on how we all can be better and do better. It is our job to educate ourselves, so I pray this podcast can be a helpful tool in this very heartbreaking time. I have to admit, I have been uncomfortable talking about race bc I don’t want to say something wrong. But as Amara mentions in this episode “it’s time to get over it and start talking.”

Caitlyn is a musical, mystical being. Talking to her feels like a river; she flows; she moves with the current and waves of her life with ease and grace. She’s written for artists from Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers (“You Can’t Make Old Friends”) and Garth Brooks to Meghan Trainor & John Legend (“Like I’m Gonna Lose You”) and James Bay. She just released her sophomore album “Supernova.” The title track was inspired by life moving by so quickly and watching her two young sons grow up before her eyes, and it’s a reminder to all of us to fully live in each moment. She talks to me a lot about how she uses visualization to create a creative life she loves. Caitlyn is a such special soul.

Kathy grew up the baby of 6 kids to an abusive father who controlled her mother’s very move. It shaped her into knowing she would never let herself rely on a man and would always be able to stand on “her own two feet.” That led her to climbing the ladder in the corporate world where she became very successful. But when her father passed she realized she wanted more for her life than just career and financial success. She wanted love and a family and a career that fueled her passion. So she quit corporate and started her photography business. She met Rob soon after and they had precious Stella. When they moved to Nashville for Rob’s job, Kathy quickly realized there was no co-workspace for women. She leveraged everything they had and opened Collective 615. Kathy shares with me how she walks through fear, choosing to stay and love your marriage, the important lessons she’s learned from parenthood, and why she has been blessed by quarantine.

Sara is the total package. Stunning, Unbelievably talented, Incredible mother and devoted wife, God fearing woman. Sara knows who she is and what matters to her. She doesn’t try to hide what’s important, where she stands, and she knows her priorities and is unapologetic about them. When we started talking, she was so down to earth and relatable that it felt like I was just talking to an old friend, not a top selling female country artist. We talked about how her game-changing debut album “Born to Fly” is celebrating 20 years. Her latest album “Copy That” is out now and it features her favorite classic songs, remade Sara Evans style. I think my favorite part of the interview was her talking about life on the road w babies and kids. She never asked permission to include her family in everything she has done. She just brought them along and made it work. I love that. So many times, especially as women, we feel like we can’t do it all at the same time, but Sara is a perfect example that you can have a happy marriage, beautiful children, and a thriving career all at once. This episode is packed with wisdom and truth bombs.

Jackie is one of my besties. We met at a Hot Yoga class and hit it off immediately a few years ago. We are both Texas girls, so there’s also that 🙌🏻👏🏼. I love Jackie for so many reasons. A big one being she trusts her intuition and isn’t scared to take huge leaps with her life. Like moving to NYC right after college to live w a family and be their personal assistant after only meeting them once. That takes major guts! We talk about her journey and how life so often takes you places you never can dream of if you just let it happen and don’t resist. Jackie now works at iHeart Artist Relations and told me how important it was to be passionate about the music and the artists, not just see it as a job. Then we reminisced about how the first time she went to the BlueBird cafe Garth Brooks made a surprise appearance.

Dennis Quaid does it all. First off he’s a Hollywood superstar. He’s a badass singer and musician. Also on his resume: he’s a jet pilot, has golfed with Presidents, and is a doting father. Dennis has so much wisdom from all of the incredible life that he has lived. He just launched a new podcast “The Dennissance” where he interviews all of his famous friends and has honest, real conversations talking about everything outside of what they are known for professionally. Dennis and I chatted about what he’s learned from being in “Hollywood jail,” who’s on his bucket list to interview, and why he thinks the world is in the middle of a spiritual awakening.

I have one of my best childhood/lifelong friends joining me on this episode. Wynne was the reason I started my podcast 4 years ago! I was having a breakdown about what to do in life, and Wynne was the most famous blogger that I knew (wynneelder.com), so I called her and asked her for advice. She told me to start a podcast before podcasts were all the rage! So thank you Wynne! We talk about her journey to motherhood, infertility, miscarriage, how God put a burning fire in her heart to adopt. We talk about how she and her hubs adopted 2 kids, Asher and Camp, at the same time from Africa when they were 8 months old. We then talk about in vitro and her finally getting pregnant and having her daughter Rivers. She is now pregnant w their last embryo and due in October. Rivers and this new baby girl were conceived together at the same time, frozen together for years, and now will be living together 3 years apart in age this fall. What an incredible journey she has been on! She is completely led by God and it is amazing to hear how her life has unfolded.

Sarah is a wild spirit. She feels like an Indian Paintbrush blowing in the wind. Beautiful. Colorful. Wild. Passionate. She moves from the soul. She can’t be tamed yet she’s super grounded. She’s one of the best vocalists and artists the town of Nashville has ever seen. She’s also written hits like “Stupid Boy” for Keith Urban and “Dayum Baby” for Florida Georgia Line. Sarah and I get so intimate on this episode. We talk about the bidding war that multiple labels had over her to sign her a decade ago, and how frustrating it was to never have one of her artist singles take off at radio when she knew that music was her destiny. But we also talk about the peace she feels in her life right now. She understands the magic and mystery of life and completely embraces it. She’s on the ride of life at full speed and she is in it to win it while enjoying the view. Tune in now to have your soul rocked.

I have always been in awe of Betsy. First off she’s a knockout. Then you learn she runs a nationwide glass company, United Glass Services. Then you learn she’s the mother of 5 kids. Then you find out she has lived with type 1 diabetes since she was 17. Then you realize that she is 1 of 13 kids and was raised to grow and hunt her own food and be totally self sufficient, living off their land and animals for a large part of their food as a child. Then she tells you she was a single mom of 2 boys under 3 when she was in her early 20’s. Finally you show up at her house, where she lives with her husband Landon (my hubby’s brother) and it’s paradise. 5 acres, a pool, 4 wheelers, bikes, a pond, chickens, rabbits, dogs, and so much life and love happening around you that can’t help but feel so good and alive and just “in it.” She’s built an incredible life. Betsy is not a victim ever. She takes every experience and turns it into a launching pad. I love this conversation so much and I am so inspired by my sis-in law.

Lauren is one of the most fun, energetic, beautiful people I know. She never holds onto grudges. She always finds the light and the good time, no matter how dark a situation can be. If there’s a gathering of friends (pre-corona), Lauren will be the one to crank up the jams and start a dance party. I consider that one of her most spectacular gifts. Some people hold onto what’s wrong with the world and their lives, others hold onto what’s right with the world and their lives. Lauren holds onto what’s right. We talk about her amazing relationship with her stepson Jake and Jeremy’s ex-wife Michelle; they all love each other and respect each other so much, they share every holiday together. We talk about how she coped with losing her father, what she’s learned from growing her thriving business with MONET (amazing natural hair products), how Jeremy pulled off a surprise wedding for her and what road life is like with him, plus why fear doesn’t run her show.

The hubs and I get downnnnn and intimate on this podcast. We talk about the difference between sex and making love, each other’s hall passes, why you have to persevere and not take things personal, the importance of not burning bridges, what we both are learning from quarantine, why he knows crying is important to me and supports it, and how it is absolutely 100% necessary to be honest and communicate with your partner and not expect them to read your mind. This absolutely may be one of my favorite, most personal convos we have ever had.

At 27 years old, Cassie has already established herself as a top entertainment host in the industry. It is no fluke that she is working for ET Online and interviewing all the A List stars from Garth Brooks to Billie Eilish. She went to college and studied journalism and immediately hit the pavement hustling and honing her craft as an entertainment reporter at several news outlets until landing her dream job at Entertainment Tonight Online recently. But it has not been an easy road. Cassie got choked up when she talked about the sacrifices she has made pursuing this dream, including rarely seeing her family and putting her love life on hold. But she has no complaints and is super grateful for all she has accomplished and the life she lives. She loves her mama more than anything, lets God guide her life, and wants to use her platform to change the world for the better.

This week I zoom interview w my bestie Bri Lundeen. We are very close friends and have shared tons of memories together from her dressing as Dolly Parton on Halloween and getting kicked out of ACME downtown (it’s not what you think but it’s epic!) and now raising baby girls together. Bri and I both struggle w anxiety so we talk about tricks to help ease that. We talk about our experience as first time moms, why we need our friends, everything you must know but they don’t tell you about labor.... it’s so good. I love how Bri takes the time to figure out what she wants and connects with, then she commits full heartedly! Very inspiring!

At seventeen years old, Ruthie was hit by an ambulance outside of a gas station in rural Louisiana. She broke her neck, punctured her lungs, and ruptured her spleen. Doctors performed a spinal cord fusion using wire and miraculously, she walked out of the hospital within a month. I sat down and talked with Ruthie (before #quarantine) all about how her life unfolded after the accident. We talk about marriage and divorce, the passing of her father and living with unbearable chronic pain that left her depressed, addicted to painkillers, and bedridden. Ruthie just released her memoir “There I Am, from Hopeless to Healing,” empowering others to find purpose in their pain, to look for beauty in the midst of their brokenness.

This week I curl up on the bed with my beautiful, smart, wise and steadfast sister. We have been quarantining in Texas together on our family farm, and it has truly been an amazing opportunity to share life together w our husbands and daughters these past couple weeks. Seeing Sunny look up to and love her older cousin Genevieve has been Precious. And G is a lil mama. Cat has always been my safe place. She is the person who always knows what is the right next thing to do. She is morally so good and pure. She wants her people to be happy. She wants to be happy. She is incredible at problem solving and making stuff happen, like super fast. She has done a lot of work on herself to become her best self so she can live her best life and bless all those around her. One of my favorite mottos that she lives by is “if it’s not a hell yes, it’s a no.” Cat is super intentional about putting family first and making life fun. She always is deeply rooted in her faith and that is her guiding light. She talks about why telling the truth to your children about everything is so important as well as how she keeps a happy home.

RaeLynn is a sparkling unicorn of rainbow confetti that brightens every room she’s in. She is the life of every party. And she’s incredibly talented.

So she launched her podcast “FANCY FREE.” We laughed so hard during this episode. Joanne also gave great advice on navigating COVID19 with children and why faith is so important.

She talks about the ups and downs and the struggles of being present in a fast moving world and how she tackles being a present parent. Laney is taking 2020 by storm with her passion project “The Wheatfield”. We talk about how she is spreading the word of God and that all seasons of our lives lead to abundance, even though that feels hard to believe. To get to the harvest we have to plow, wait, plant, wait, overcome nature’s obstacles, only to have to work harder once our harvest is here. I love her perspective so much. Especially in this time of confusion and tragedy in the world, Laney is shining a light on how to live abundantly.

I had the extreme honor to go lecture a Belmont class on Tuesday. The class is called “Women in Entertainment.” How cool is that there there is a class talking about this?! I basically told my story. How I have had extreme highs and lows in my career. I’ve had multiple record deals, been on lots of reality TV, been a TV host, Record label promoter, song plugger, music teacher to kids and now podcaster. It’s so easy to look at someone when they seem to be crushing it and compare yourself to their journey and think you’re not enough, a loser, never going to be successful, not talented enough, etc... NEWS FLASH: everyone feels super insecure at times and like they are a fraud. The secret is you have to keep moving forward and riding the wave. You have to trust the flow. When you feel resistance, pivot. Follow the easy feelings. That’s doesn’t mean it won’t be hard work, but if you are in true pursuit of your passion it will feel so good when you are “working.” A lot of times you have to have a side hustle to support yourself until that can become your main hustle. But follow the flow. It’s so important to jump at opportunities and be brave. Put yourself out there even when it’s uncomfortable. I just basically recap what I told these amazing students at the beginning of their journey. I really felt honored that I had the chance to instill hope in them and let them know they are not crazy to believe in their dreams. I made everyone go around the class and say what they felt called to do and why they would be great at that job. It was powerful. So here’s my recap.

Stevie is everybody’s best friend. Or at least everybody wants to be her best friend. Her smile and laugh are infectious. Then she drops her sense of humor and good time on you, and you can’t be anything short of glamoured by her spirit. Stevie talks to me openly about how life has been amazing and awful at the same time. While in the middle of battling breast cancer, her husband won songwriter of the year. While feeling her worst, she and her husband’s publishing company, Rhythm House (under Jay-Z’s Entertainment Company), started thriving and bringing in multiple #1 hits. Stevie also goes into vivid detail about the time she met Beyoncé at the company Christmas party and talked to her after multiple tequilas... they basically are best friends now lol! What I love about Stevie is her honesty and humor about life. She knows how to take things in stride. She’s not scared of dealing with the truth. She also knows how to really have fun and enjoy life no matter what season or struggle she may be facing, she finds the laughter and light!

Laura has a laundry list of accomplishments. She is a top female power player in the Entertainment Industry. She launched FlyteVu (They Connect Brands To Consumers Through the Power Of Music, Pop Culture and Entertainment) in 2015 after 15+ years in the music industry brokering Artist & Brand partnerships at CAA, Ticketmaster, and WME where she grew sponsorship revenues to over $50M. But Laura is not one of those “bosses” who just orders people around . She is all about the creative experience and hiring people who think outside the box and can bring ideas to life that others would be too scared to even dream about. I love how she told me “no is just a suggestion.” She won’t stop until her vision is executed no matter how much red tape she has to get through and how daunting the task may be. Giving back is where her heart lives. She wants people to be seen, ideas to come alive, people to feel fulfilled, and brands and entertainers to combine forces with a message that impacts the world for the better. I have been lucky enough to work with her on several campaigns and it has been nothing short of inspiring to see the creativity, connectivity and fluidness of her team. You can tell everyone is full of passion at FlyteVu. Laura talks about why healing is so important to her. When she was young she almost died from anorexia. Last year she lost her boyfriend. He was a survivor of Columbine. Laura has made it her life’s work to help heal those who have survived a mass shooting. Please check out http://www.theonsitefoundation.org if you or someone you know needs help. Laura is a light to this world and is using her own pain to help others find healing. This interview will motivate you to believe in hope, even in the darkest hours.

My friend Laney Crowder started a Women’s Group and she talked about how to get to “the harvest” in life, we have to go through the rain, plowing, more rain, and finally the harvest... but sometimes the harvest is bad and we have to start over.... but ultimately it all leads to our abundance so don’t be discouraged.” I talk about that, and the different seasons I’ve gone though lately, and how I feel I’m stepping into my Harvest season.... I talk about bringing God into every aspect of my life and why serving others is important to happiness and where I can improve on that in my life.... Then I answer a lot of your questions!

This year I’m saying NO to making resolutions. In my mind, resolutions set you up for failure bc you havvvvvvveeeeee to keep it or reach it, or else you’ve “failed.” I’m not putting that kind of pressure on myself this year. Instead I’m choosing to have digestible goals that help move me towards my dream body, home, career, purpose, home life, lifestyle, spiritual well-being, outreach, etc. What I don’t want to do is put so much pressure on myself to “achieve,” that I miss the joy, blessings and wins that are already happening in my life. I don’t want to have anxiety. That’s a bold claim, but I’m claiming it and I’m going to do the work to live a life of PEACE and TRUST this year and throw in some JOY and FUN while you’re at it. Ohhh, and I’m claiming God’s blessing over my life this year in all that I do. I’m also claiming that for Michael and Sunny and my family and friends and I claim it for all of you too. No more agenda forcing. Handing the wheel to God this year. I can’t wait to see where He goes with our lives.

Tayla is my sister. We were in a band together, Stealing Angels, for about 7 years. We lived together, toured together, loved together, fought together, grew up together. Tayla has been such a great teacher in my life. She is the one who really showed me how to unapologetically be and love myself, because that’s what she does. She has recovered from drug addiction, abuse, trauma, divorce and so much more. We talk about it all openly here. We could feel the Holy Spirit in the room. Tayla also is the most ALIVE human I know. She feels and expresses life in every aspect of her being, she doesn’t hold back from singing, performing, speaking God’s word and being a ball of firecracker energy at all times. She’s one of a kind and I’m blessed to call her family.

When it comes to feeding your baby, there is no one way to skin a cat. It’s crazy how stressful and emotional it can be... “can I breast feed, do I make enough milk, my baby isn’t latching, breast feeding just isn’t working for me, how do I supplement formula, am I a failure if i can’t/don’t want to breast feed,” man.... the inner struggle we go through as moms can be rough! So in this episode I address what’s working for me, how it changes allllllll the time and why we have to give ourselves grace as mamas. I also answer some questions y’all have asked me.

Allison Moorer has a depth to her that feels like the ocean, and you feel it immediately when you’re in her presence. She’s feels classic like Nicole Kidman meets Kate Winslet and throw in a touch of Joni Mitchell. There’s a confident quietness to her until she is engaged in conversation... then she speaks and all you want to do is listen. I met her at an eclectic dinner party hosted by a fabulous interior Photographer, Alyssa Rosenheck. I was moved by everything Allison spoke about; from how she just published a book and album called “Blood” on the murder-suicide of her parents, and how she and her sister, Grammy winner Shelby Lynne, became each other’s rock and “nightlights,” as one of the tracks on her new album sings about. She also talked about the trials and triumphs of raising a non-verbal ten year old with autism. Allison says God gives us the child we need. She is so tuned into her spiritual being. We talk about what it felt like to be nominated for an Oscar and a Grammy and playing the Oscars. This interview hits every nerve. Allison is so transparent and honest. I love this conversation, and I feel honored to know Allison.

My mom is wise. She is beautiful. She is never quick to anger or assumptions. She gives people the benefit of the doubt and she ALWAYS assumes the best in people. She CHOOSES to see the good in the world. She CHOOSES to be open minded and non-judgmental. She loves to learn and expand her mind through art, travel, people, books, philosophy, nature, and the life experience in general. I look up to her so much. As a child she never yelled at us, she always would sit us down and have a conversation about right and wrong and she would let us use our own minds to figure out why we should or shouldn’t do something. The older I get the more I adore the woman my mom has chosen to be. I say “chosen” bc I realize that we get to choose how we respond to life’s circumstances that are put on our path. My mom has always chosen to embrace her journey, learn from the heartaches, and never play a victim. This conversation is full of wisdom and grace from my mother.

I’m learning how to say no first instead of yes first (which is VERY hard for a recovering people pleaser and adventure lover). I’m learning how to let my old self die in order to become the best version of my new self and I’m identifying how I’m doing that as well as giving y’all tons of examples of how I have been a total exhausted mess lately and what I’m doing to change that so I can be the best version of myself for Sunny, me and Michael.

This episode is pure therapy. I went into this interview wanting to talk to Ashley all about how she is one of the most respected entertainment hosts in Nashville. She has worked with Rolling Stone, Country Weekly, GAC, CMT, covered every major county award show and host her own successful Nashville entertainment based podcast “All Our Favorite People.” But instead we had soul talk. Went went real deep. Like all the way back to the moment in Ashley’s childhood where she remembered being completely free before the world made her believe that she wasn’t enough. Then we have a BREAKTHROUGH moment where we realize she has found that girl again, after committing the last year to intensive therapy, and she is truly living free and worthy like how she remembered herself as a child. This episode is truly healing and inspiring to walk through the emotional journey of Ashley’s life.

Being around GiGi truly feels as sweet, magical and light hearted as walking into her world famous cupcake store, GiGi’s. She is fearless. She does what it takes to move herself forward and she is not afraid of risking it all for a dream. Failure is not even something she worries about, because she always knows God is guiding her and something else will be around the corner if a door closes in her face. GiGi’s first business was a cleaning company that she took Nashville when she moved to pursue her dream of singing country music. She tells an amazing story of how she found herself in the house of young Taylor Swift, cleaning her toilet while she was singing “teardrops on my guitar,” before Taylor had become a star. At that moment GiGi decided her dream of being a country music star was over. I love that GiGi preaches a message we don’t hear too often “that there are times in life where you have to let your dreams die in order to realize what you’re really meant to create.” GiGi is an author, she has been on “Undercover Boss,” she has given a TED Talk, and speaks her story and inspires others all over the country.

After struggling with body image and trying every different diet known to man from no carbs, juice cleanses, diet pills plus not eating, excessively exercising, bulimia...

After getting pregnant and having Sunny I have never been more comfortable in my skin even though my body has changed more than ever. I break down why I think I’m happier than ever in my body and why diets and eating disorders don’t work for me.

Carissa is the girl that everyone wants for their best friend and I’m sure every guy tried to date before she got married. She’s beautiful but doesn’t lead with her beauty, she leads with her open heart, bright eyes, good humor, and honest conversation. She’s super chill and has a way of making anyone who’s talking to her feel at ease and safe. I guess that’s why she is one of the star hosts for E!. Everyday she goes live with “The Daily Pop,” where she has round table talk with some of the biggest celebrities. I love how Carissa told me that her being vulnerable and willing to share her life and struggles was crucial for a good interview... “why would they want to share something back with me if I’m just sitting there on my high horse not sharing anything about myself.” She tells me how she juggles work and motherhood, how there is no balance, and what kept her in tears in the beginning of being a new mom. She also walks me through some of her most memorable interviews with the world’s favorite superstars.

Mama Karen is mom to 3 beautiful kids, one of them being my good friend Jessie James Decker who makes an appearance on this podcast w her daughter Vivi... Jessie shares one of her favorite childhood stories about her mama. Karen is so wise and so kind. That’s something I really took away from this interview was her sincere heart. She loves so purely and believes that anything is possible if you can see it, you can achieve it. She became a QVC host after working her way up from the front desk bc she knew she could do it. That’s how she is with her kids too, I remember Jessie saying in my interview with her that Mama Karen never thought any of Jessie’s dreams to become a singer were out of reach and she would take her all over the place so she could perform at a young age. Karen also believes in romance and gives some excellent tips to keeping the spark alive in your marriage plus she talks about her cookbooks and novel that is in the works!

I usually interview women for my podcast, but I had to make an exception when I got the opportunity to talk to Cody Alan. I have loved Cody for so long. He has always had the kindest heart, and most inviting spirit to be around. Watching him own his true identity as a gay man in country music, and taking that risk of wondering if he would be exiled from the community, where so few people have ever come out as LGBTQ was a huge moment of bravery for Cody, and powerful to observe. Cody is one of the trailblazers for equality and acceptance in country music. He shares with me how incredible it felt to receive the overwhelming support from artists and the community, and how he uses his platform to help others embrace their individuality by living by the motto “make your mess your message.”

Jessie James Decker has never been one to quit because someone told her no, or didn’t believe in her. Instead she comes back stronger and better. After being rejected countless times from country music record labels then being signed and released from several major pop labels, Jessie has become a force all on her own, completely independent and doing it her way. That’s Jessie. Fearless, talented, driven, and full of heart. She now has a booming clothing empire with her brand Kittenish, a best selling book with another on the way, she is selling out music venues with thousands of fans all by herself, and she still makes being a mama a wife her top priority. Jessie is the example of what a modern day woman can be: a mogul, mother, wife and friend while looking like a million bucks.

For so long, Deanna hid the full truth of who she was, and felt unworthy. But she is done living in the shadows. Recently, Deanna has stepped out publicly as a bisexual woman, with the full support of Chris. We talk about why she decided to go public, and how she is taking brave ownership of every part of herself, despite how scary it feels. She co-wrote Chris’ newest song AS YOU ARE which is a declaration of being loved fully for who you are...
“You're feeling isolateAnd all kinds of frustrateBut I love you as you areLove you as you are, yeahAnd don't worry about the hateIt don't fit in those boxes they createAnd it's tearing you apartIt's tearing you apart, yeah”
Deanna and Chris met 19 years ago when he was just 20 years old and selling vacuums. Deanna at the time was a single mother of 2 and 7 years older. Sparks flew between them immediately and they were married within months of meeting. We talk about how they have navigated life as Chris became an overnight success and star from American Idol, dealing with infidelity from an empathic standpoint, the ups and down of fame, and raising 5 kids. Plus we talk about how Deanna and Chris agreed upon ethical non-monogamy at certain points in their relationship, and how important it is to love yourself and live authentically. It is not easy to share your whole soul with the world and open yourself up to others opinions. I admire and praise her for her strength, vulnerability and commitment to living honestly and open.

After moving to LA, she was cast in another Country Music Star’s Video, Frankie Ballard’s “A Buncha Girls.” But this video was different. From the second Frankie and Chrissy met, sparks flew. 2 weeks later he flew her out for their first date to meet him on the road and watch him play shows. After that they were inseparable. Chrissy realized that acting was no longer her dream, and she wanted to leave LA to be with Frankie in Nashville. But she didn’t want to lose her creative outlet, so she prayed to God for a new dream. And woah, did God answer. Chrissy went back to her family roots of loving shoes and retail and created a Boot Empire named OLD SMOKEYS BOOTS where she has celebrity clients from Lucy Hale to Miranda Lambert. She gets old vintage boots and leather and makes super-funky-cool-one-of-a-kind cowboy boots, belts and purses. Chrissy also talks the secrets to her fruitful/spiritual marriage with Frankie, dealing with the grief of suddenly losing her father, and what a successful life looks like to her.

This is a powerful episode. Laney and Walker Hayes are high school sweethearts. They fell in love at age 17 after breaking into a construction site and talking all night, then reciting lines from their school play to each other and Walker finally going in for the kiss. They are incredible parents to 6 kids, and make it a point to have open communication about everything. They also have a family tradition of eating pounds of bacon when Walker comes in off the road. Laney gets real with me about the grief and tragedy of losing their 7th child, Oakleigh, in labor while Laney almost died delivering her. She and Walker feel very passionately about using their journey of loss to help others. There are tears and very raw emotions in this episode. I thank Laney for her bravery and willingness to share about this incredibly sensitive, painful topic and use it for healing.

Nicolle is the unicorn of the music business, she has it all. She’s beautiful, oozing with passion and talent, fiercely committed to her family and friends, and oh yeah, happens to be one of the most successful songwriters in Country Music. She’s won ACM Song of the Year twice w Miranda Lambert’s “Automatic” and Dan and Shay’s “Tequila,” plus written multiple other #1 hits. She’s been on “The Voice,” and has an exhibit in The Country Music Hall of Fame. But what I love most about Nicolle is her raw, honest heart. Yes her life appears perfect, but she’s not scared to fail, or talk about her insecurities, struggles and the ups and downs of daily life. I love how she views fear and failure, and why she’s not afraid to own her worth.

Rebecca tells me about how fun it is being married to Phillip, a constant dreamer and optimist, and part of the Little Big Town Family.

She also shares about the early struggle days of Little Big Town, and how they never lost hope or gave up even after 4 record deals, and why she loves that their daughter is a daddy’s girl.

Taylor met Brett Young when she was in college. Her roommate was friends with him and he was coming to town to play a show. Brett heard about Taylor and sent her a Facebook message asking her on a date before they even met. They ended up dating 6 years then broke up due to timing and schedules. Fast forward a few years, Brett had moved to Nashville and was one of country music’s newest, hottest stars, when he randomly reached out to Taylor after they hadn’t spoken in years. They reconnected and realized they were each other’s one true love and got married and pregnant with a baby girl all within about a year and a half. Taylor tells me why she loves going on the road with Brett and learning his world of touring, how she and Brett plan to bring a baby on the road, plus how they learned to fight fair with a purpose and why they love pillow talk.

I pulled up to interview Nicole Hocking, and see her fiancé Luke Combs outside changing their cats litter box. My heart exploded. Here is Luke, on fire, selling out arenas, yet he’s still as normal as the next person. That’s why I loved this interview with Nicole. She is so down to earth. She loves to hunt and be active, loves her friends and family, loves to make tacos with Luke at home and binge Netflix. It was so sweet hearing about how Nicole and Luke started off as close friends, then watched that friendship quickly turn to love. Listening to Nicole talk about how teary she gets seeing Luke on stage and watching his music impact people was so inspiring. I love how she takes time to count her blessings everyday and never forgets to be thankful for the life she lives.

I loved getting real with Tatiana Houser. We started the conversation off with her life in Australia where she played golf and rode horses competitively. She still rides horses and says that riding allows a part of her to come alive and be herself that nothing else does. We then get really personal and talk about a time when Tatiana felt out of control with her diet, body, self esteem, and past relationship. She opens up about how she moved through that painful period to become a holistic health coach where she really learned to love taking care of herself, physically and emotionally and spreading this knowledge to others. One of my favorite parts of the interview is where Tatiana tells her love story with Randy Houser. They met and fell in love instantly. Randy is best friends with Tatiana’s sisters husband, hit songwriter Dallas Davidson, so they met through them. Within weeks Tatiana was moving over to the United States from Australia and planning her life with Randy. They are now married with a baby boy on the way. Her story is nothing short of beautiful and inspiring!

I have loved this little firecracker for over a decade. I met Kelly when I was in college at Belmont, and we became fast friends. At that time she was a single mom of 2 amazing kids, an A&R consultant, hosting a TV show, making furniture, and basically a powerhouse machine doing it all with THE MOST optimistic attitude. That's Kelly. Life never gets her down, and you won't find her whining that it's not fair. She always sees the glass half full, and is not afraid to work hard and get her hands dirty. She also is never afraid of being told NO. She will always find a way, and I admire that so much about her. She tells me her amazing love story with Chris Janson... How he knew he loved her instantly; how he was thrilled and honored to get to be a step dad to her kids, and even asked them for permission to marry Kelly. Kelly now goes on the road pretty much full time with Chris, manages him, is a Publisher (has a co-venture with Warner-Chapel), is a songwriter and also has 2 more precious kids with Chris. We talk about the moment Chris was inducted into The Grand Old Opry as the youngest living member and what a day in the life of the Janson household looks like.... Hint hint, it's NEVER boring!

Kailey is such a ray of light. She has faith that can move mountains. I love our conversations, and hearing how she talks to God and trusts in Him so completely. That goes for her husband too, Russell Dickerson. We talk about the long journey it has been for Russell to finally find the success in Country Music that they both knew he was destined for. What I love is they never doubted that God would open the doors. We talk about Russell's 100% optimistic attitude and constant amazement for life, like Buddy the Elf. Kailey shares how incredible it feels to be one of the few female video directors in Nashville (she has gotten two #1 videos on CMT for "Yours" and "Blue Tacoma"). And we talk about secrets to a happy marriage and happy life, including sex everyday, walks in the morning, and truly taking the time to SEE people and KNOW people!

Cassie Kelley. What a woman. I have known and admired this lady for over 10 years. I was an intern for her husband Charles (of Lady Antebellum) co-producer, Victoria Shaw, when Cassie and Charles first met and fell in love; so I got a front row ticket to their blooming love story. I remember thinking Cassie was the most stunning, fabulous human I had ever seen. So graceful, so stylish and so kind. I still feel that way about Cassie today. I have loved getting to know Cassie more over the years and seeing how soulful, giving, real and honest she is as a wife, mother, friend and business woman. Sitting down and talking with Cassie for this podcast was nothing short of inspiring. We talk about how she and Charles fell in love at first sight, Cassie and Charles infertility struggles and journey to parenthood, life on the road pre and post babies, and her travel blog WOMANISTA that she grew, partnered, and eventually sold to CBS (can we say badass)!!! We also get real about body image and how she found relief from the pressure to be perfect. Cassie is such a woman of faith and uplifts anyone who is lucky enough to be in her presence.

I discovered Caroline Bryan’s Instagram page last year and my life was changed forever. Not only is Caroline a total bombshell, she is the funniest prankster I have ever witnessed. Over Christmas, Caroline did “the 12 days of pranks” where she hid in a life size teddy bear and scared every family member and friend walking by, put fingernail polish on a bar of soap only to hear Luke wonder why it’s not lathering up lol, plus many more pranks involving snakes, fog horns and fart machines. She also has a sidekick, LeClaire, Luke’s mother-in-law. Luke definitely got his dance moves from his mother, bc she can cut a rug! The Bryan Family is so much fun and so inspiring. They know how to enjoy life and find joy in everyday. Caroline and I chat about her love story with Luke and how they met in college. We also talk about how she and Luke have survived tragedy. Luke lost both his siblings and brother-in-law, and took in their 3 children: a son who was in high school and 2 college age daughters to live with them and their 2 sons Bo and Tate. Caroline and Luke also started a charity, Brett’s Barn, with Caroline’s brother and sister-in-law, in honor of her brother’s daughter Brett who died at a very young age. Brett’s Barn opens its doors to sick and disabled children to come pet and love on the animals. It’s a true sanctuary. Caroline has a heart of gold and uses her life to spread love and healing and laughs. She is such an example of faith. It was amazing to hear her story with Luke and see how they have such an incredible marriage and life in the midst of the wild world of the music industry and personal heartbreak.

When you see Katelyn Brown, you can’t help but stare. She’s drop dead gorgeous. Then you get to know her, and realize she has the sweetest, most playful spirit. It was so fascinating to learn about her musical past. When she was 18, she linked up with Justin Timberlake’s manager and moved to his musical compound in Orlando FL that he created for all of his artists and boy bands to live and develop their talents. At the compound there were recording studios, rehearsal rooms and basically anything you need as an artist at your beck and call. Katelyn lived here for years. During this time she started working with a producer out of Atlanta that was also working with a new young artist, Kane Brown. Katelyn met Kane serendipitously when she was shooting a music video and did not feel chemistry with the actor cast for her love interest. Her manger quickly thought of Kane to take the role, and from that moment on, sparks were flying between the two. In this episode we talk all about their enchanting wedding, how she’s overcoming her fear of flying, instagram dance battles with Kane, and life at home and on the road. Tune in now to hear Katelyn’s incredible journey and exciting love story.

At 17 years old, Brittney suffered great loss with the murder of her grandmother who raised her. She was forced to grow up and learn how to be resilient and self motived at a very young age. She surrounded herself with people who lifted and pushed her to never settle for less than she was worth.

Brittney has always had the confidence to follow where her heart guides her, even if it's scary. That led to her opening an Etsy's jewelry store from her one bedroom apartment where she would take old, broken jewelry and twist it around into something new and spectacular. Brittney met and married Brian from Florida Georgia Line when she was finishing up at the University of Georgia and went straight from college to the tour bus. On the road, she and Brian combined their creative juices and launched a clothing/lifestyle brand, Tribe Kelley. They now have two beautiful storefronts: one in Nashville and one in 30A FL.

I could not be more thrilled to kick of 2019 continuing my Music City Wives Series with this angel, Hayley Hubbard. Hayley has the most gentle, giving spirit. She is so inclusive and kind, and radiates so much love for humanity. It was inspiring getting soulful with Hayley, to hear her talk so openly about how she is finding the courage to speak up and use her voice and platform, even though it had formerly terrified her. She talks a lot about God and several moments in her life where God smacked her in the face with a message loud and clear. One of those being when she was about to move to LA. She had a roommate and life lined up, ready to sign a lease, when this cute boy she was just friends with, Tyler Hubbard, told her "No, I don't think you should go... Have you prayed about it yet?" The next day, God gave her an answer loud and clear. She is now married to Tyler (of Florida Georgia Line) and has the sweetest baby girl Liv. Hayley and Tyler's love is more than inspirational. FGL includes their wives in all that they do publicly, and have shown that marriage is a sexy and a beautiful thing in the Entertainment Industry, where so many people before have not wanted to promote marriage. Hayley and Tyler are definitely couple goals and more than that, they are incredible people.

This beauty radiates positivity. She should be a supermodel, for real. I met Jenna when Michael was on tour w Jason Aldean in 2015, and Jenna's hubby, DeeJay Silver, was the rockstar DJ that played between all the sets. During that time she had a perfect pregnancy with her now precious 2 year old son, Wake. After Wake was born, Jenna went through a miscarriage. It devastated her. This episode is so personal because when we recorded it, I was going through a miscarriage and was heartbroken. We have a very real, emotional conversation about how she handled her heartbreak of loss, and found her way back from fear and sadness to hope and redemption. She is now 25 weeks pregnant and thriving. I'm in awe of her openness to share her journey and bring awareness to painful topic.

This little beauty is an angel. She grew up on a farm raising cow-calf pairs to earn money for college. She entered Miss Arkansas for the scholarship money, and ended up winning the whole thing! She is married to Shay, from Dan and Shay and they have the most precious little boy, Asher. I love Hannah because she is so connected to her faith. Many times throughout this interview she talks about how she surrendered her life over to God when she felt lost or stuck, and let Him lead her... And he always did! She also tells her love story with Shay, and I have to say, it will make you swoon!

How could we make it in life without our girlfriends? I know I could not. This is another episode of my GET REAL series Girlfriend Confidential. Laney, Kristen and I talk all about marriage in the music industry (it's not all glamour, and can have some really trying seasons). We chat babies, balance, learning to have patience and trust ourselves while giving ourselves grace for the mess and uncertainty. We 3 are already best friends, so this interview is raw and real. Kristen shares about her miscarriage and Laney talks about learning how to embrace her creativity and instincts even when it feels overwhelming. "Nobody is nailing it;" that may be my favorite line of the whole podcast. But we are all sure giving it are all, and that is more than enough!

She boldly went to a Model "Open Call" and introduced herself to the head booker, but not as a model, a makeup artist. Her confidence and natural skill led him to let her shadow Pam Anderson's makeup artist, and then the rest is history. Jess does all the top celebrities hair/makeup/style. She makes everyone look so naturally beautiful and sexy. She is fearless, and she never lets one rejection or hard time set her back. She gives great advice to young influencers about why being authentic and never doing anything just for a paycheck is crucial. LOVE HER!

This is a Power Couple. Both Vanessa and Miles are huge forces in their own right. Vanessa is an actress (she was "Brittany Hodges" on "The Young and the Restless," plus so many movies, and TV shows). She is is also an incredible jewelry designer. Vanessa comes from a large entertainment family: her dad starred in "My Two Dads," her mother was a Broadway Dancer and her Brother is a hit Songwriter and Producer. Vanessa has talent oozing through her veins. And she is even more beautiful on the inside than outside. Miles is a staple in Nashville for his Emotional Wellness Retreat Center "Onsite." At "Onsite," he leads people to personal healing. Miles says "Onsite to me more than a therapeutic retreat center, a personal growth center, therapy center, all these things that people can label us, but the truth is, we're a safe place where people can land, relax, take whatever armor they've had on for so long to make themselves feel safe from the world, and just lay it down. We're a place that helps people connect to WHO THEY ARE, so they can go back into the world and connect to other people." WOW. Miles also just launched "Unspoken Podcast" with the incredible Ruthie Lindsey, covering all of these real issues. Vanessa and Miles are also the parents to a precious child, Maverick, and they are so honest about parenting, marriage, and all the ups and downs that happened in their relationship. They share with me how they keep their marriage strong, and why they don't ever claim to be perfect. This interview is ESSENTIAL if you interested healing yourself, and having healthy relationships.

Mallory Ervin Part 2! This girl is the QUEEN. Queen of positivity, queen of manifesting her life, and the queen of hard work and hustle. I am literally in awe of how she makes it all happen for herself! Mallory and I met several years ago when we both competed on “The Amazing Race.” We have both grown a lot and experienced some really cool moments together. What Mallory has accomplished as a YouTube, Instagram and Fashion/Lifestyle Influencer in only about 2 years truly blows me away. Once this lady sets her mind to something, there is NO stopping her (and her precious husband Kyle is the mastermind behind all of her editing of content and the co-star of most of her content ).

Chuck Wicks! This guy is multi-talented. You probably know him from Ty, Chuck and Kelly, a nationally syndicated Radio Show that keeps you in-the-know of all things Country Music, and they're hilarious. He is an incredible artist, his hit, Stealing Cinderella, is one of my absolute favorite songs (and my dads too!). He's been on Dancing with The Stars, he does Iron Mans (yes, that's right, IRON MANS) and he recently survived a horrible car crash with his co-hosts that has only deepened his incredible wisdom on life. This interview is such a blast, bc Chuck has to be one of the funniest guys I know. He definitely does not take himself too seriously. And he plays us his new single "Whole Damn Thing," and it's badass. #nashville #carolinehobby #hypercarolinehobby #podcast #countrymusic #chuckwicks #tychuckandkelly

Autumn House! This chick is a major powerhouse. She is one of the most influential Women in A&R at UMG Records. So for those of you who don't know what A&R is, basically, Autumn discovers new talent for her label, listens to songs for artists on her label, and helps guide and develop artists as they grow and make music... to name a few things she does. She works closely w stars such as Lady Antebellum, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley to name a feeeeew. And she is just so talented. Autumn has an amazing ear for hit songs. That's why she's one of the best in the biz, and it was my privilege to interview her. Especially since i was so impacted by her when I first moved to town, and was in college at Belmont, and she spoke to us. She said "if you have a backup plan, do that, bc the music business is tough and you can't have a backup plan." Love this woman! Tune in tomorrow to hear us talk about all parts of her job and life, and artist stories that are so interesting! #nashville #carolinehobby #hypercarolinehobby #podcast #musicbusiness #ladyantebellum #keithurban #dierksbentley #lukebryan #belmontuniversity

Jillian Jacqueline! This babe is one of the hottest new females on the Country Music Scene! She got her start, at age 9, touring w Kenny Roger's Broadway Show (how amazing is that!?). Jillian then formed a band with her sisters called "The Little Women Band," that they pursued much of her childhood. Jillian has recorded with Vince Gill, Billy Dean and Suzy Bogguss (she was featured on their charting single "Please Keep Mom and Dad in Love" ironically while her parents were divorcing) ...

With brand new music including her single "Hate Me" and songs "Reasons" and "Bleachers" gaining much attention, get excited for this new force and face in Country Music! #podcast #nashville #carolinehobby #jillianjacqueline #kennyrogers #vincegill

Noah Guthrie! This guy is so inspiring. He got his start on YouTube when he posted his own version of LMFAO's "I'm Sexy and I Know It." Well, it went viral, getting over 25 million views. A Producer from the hit TV show GLEE found him and thought he would be perfect to play the role of Roderick Meeks, starring opposite Lea Michele (he tells us what's she's like behind the scenes). He just recorded a new album, "The Valley," and it comes out June 23rd and it's just so good. Noah truly believes in the music he's making and does it all for the song, never worrying about the outcome. But it sure looks like the songs have places to go bc he's one of the most exciting new voices emerging. #nashville #podcast #carolinehobby #noahguthrie #lmfao #glee

Luke Pell! You guys may recognize him from being a FrontRunner on JoJo Fletcher's season of "The Bachelorette." We talk alllll about what goes on behind the scenes, how it feels knowing other guys are kissing the girl you are pursuing, that hot tub scene (🔥), and how he really felt about falling in love on National TV.... Then we talk about his life prior to The Bachelorette, in the military... he served 9 years, 4 years in college at Westpoint, and 5 years as an officer, 1 year in Afghanistan. He said that experience "opened his eyes to the rest of the world." Luke is super wise about how he views life... he feels you should try and do something everyday to make someone else's life better.... He also had a life-threatening health scare that really put everything in perspective for him... This guy has lived a lot of life to be so young and his stories and journey are nothing short of inspiring.

Emily West! This girl is a STAR! She has had an amazing journey. Moved to Nashville, got a record deal on Capitol Records (I interned at Capitol when she was signed there, and have been a huge fan of her for years!), sang a DUET w Keith Urban ("Blue Sky"- talk about powerful song and performance!), then moved to NYC on a whim- she went for a weekend trip then didn't come back for a year or so, entered "America's Got Talent," and got 2nd Place (what!), basically 1st place as far as singing, bc a magician beat her... So in my mind, she won for sure. Emily's voice is other worldly. She is in a league of her own. One of the best voices of our generation.... She belongs in the company of Barbara Streisand, Cher, Bette Midler and Judy Garland. #podcast #nashville #hypercarolinehobby #emilywest #carolinehobby

The Sisterhood! I'm obsessed. I'm not sure how you get cooler, more talented or more beautiful than Alyssa Bonagura and Ruby Stewart. These 2 belong from another era, like the 70's with Stevie Nicks and Cher... But they bring a modern twist to their music and vibe. What they have is magic, and can't quite be defined. Both ladies grew up on the road with traveling musician parents. Ruby is from Rock N Roll Royalty; her dad is Rod Stewart. When they are together it feels like electricity is in the room, you just want to be around it. Hearing about their upbringing both living on the road, finding their own way musically and then joining together by a random stroke of luck in LA, confirms these 2 gals were always destined to be together, make music, and change the world. They even have opposite matching missing front teeth. #carolinehobby #thesisterhood #nashville #podcast #rodstewart #rubystewart #alyssabonagura

Skip Bishop! This guy is magical. Like a magical musical wizard. He has been the VP of Sony Promotions as well as VP of Arista Promotions- working in the music business for over 40 years. We talk about everything. How he got into radio as a kid with a cardboard box where he would entertain the whole neighborhood, pretending to be on air. He talks about artist he has worked with such as Carrie Underwood, Alan Jackson, Kellie Pickler to name a few. We cover how important radio is to an artist's career and all the ins and outs of the music biz. Skip is one of a kind. Once you meet him, you will NEVER forget. He's such an original in every way.

Jimmy is a rockstar- I'm not kidding- he had a huge pop hit "Where Are You Now," before becoming EVP of the entire Big Machine Label Group as well as being President of BMLG Records (which is one of the 5 labels in the Big Machine Label Group). His story is amazing. He started as an artist, and over time switched to the business side of the music industry where he has broken acts like Luke Bryan, Eric Church, Darius Rucker and most recently A Thousand Horses and Brett Young. We talk all about what goes into picking a single, signing an artist, and the power of radio. Jimmy also is just a great guy and family man to the core. #carolinehobby #bigmachine #lukebryan #ericchurch #dariusrucker #athousandhorses #brettyoung #podcast #nashville

Marcus Hummon! This man is one of the most interesting guys I know. He's truly is a citizen of the world, growing up in Italy, Africa, and the Philippines to name a few. He got a record deal in 1986 and then shortly after started getting cuts with some of the biggest artists in Country Music at the time including Wynonna "Only Love," Alabama "Cheap Seats," and has only continued to have smash hits with Tim McGraw's "One of These Days," and Sara Evan's huge breakout hit "Born To Fly." He then linked up with the Dixie Chicks and cowrote my FAV song ever "Cowboy Take Me Away," and "Ready To Run." In 2005, Marcus won a Grammy for Best Country Song with his Rascal Flatts hit "God Bless The Broken Road." This man has TALENT FOR DAYS. He is also married to Becca Stevens, an Episcopal Priest, who launched the incredible Thistle Farms which is "a sanctuary for healing for women survivors of abuse, addiction, trafficking, and prostitution." Marcus and his wife truly are helping to heal the world. #nashville #podcast #carolinehobby #marcushummon #songwriter #hitsongwriter #thistlefarms

Brittany Williams! I love this girl. And yes, she is even more gorgeous on the inside than she is on the outside which is almost impossible to believe! I got to know Britt last year when A Thousand Horses toured with her hubby Jason Aldean, and it was instant love for me. She is a makeup guru, she has pop-up classes all over the country helping teach women beauty secrets to make them feel beautiful and empowered. Brittany loves helping women feel good about themselves. Her YouTube page is full of all sorts of makeup tutorials from everyday looks to super intense awesome Halloween looks. She also may as well be St. Francis because this gorgeous creature is going to save all the animals. #nashville #podcast #carolinehobby #jasonaldean #youtube

She literally has her hands in everyone's hair! She also co-owns The Dry House with Dierks Bentley's wife Cassidy. Star power for days. Ali and her stylists don't just do celebrities though, they are the premier blow dry bar for anyone in Nashville who wants their hair to look fab. And this place is not just going to give you great hair, it's going to give you a great time while you're there.

I am lucky enough to go every week with my #NashvilleInsider babe Lindsey Caldwell to get us camera ready, and it's always a high spot of my week.

MAGGIE ROSE! This chick is fire! Back when she was in High School the label executive legend Tommy Mottola realized her talent and helped her score a record deal. She has been making music and making waves ever since. She released a new EP "The Variety Show" last year and it showed us even more what she is capable of as an artist and how talented she is- "Same Sky" is my JAM off that EP. She also has been named one of CMT's Next Women of Country and just got a song cut by Lady Gaga! And to top it off, her heart is just as big as her talent. #podcast #nashville #CMT #maggierose #carolinehobby #ladygaga

Lucie Silvas! This interview was a pure delight! And in the spirit of love (since it is Valentine's Day), how fitting that Lucie's husband John kicked off this interview, interviewing Lucie! He asked her a lot of personal questions, like how much she loved his big, sexy.... beard! Lucie and John then talked all about Lucie's incredible album they co-produced together, "Letters To Ghosts," and what the experience was like working together in the studio. Lucie is from Europe and has been writing songs, playing and singing since she was a wee little thing at the age of 10. At the age of 17 she hit the road touring as a background singer and then went on to score a record deal and sell A MILLION ALBUMS! I repeat, Lucie Silvas has sold A MILLION ALBUMS. Woah. She now is a Nashville Native and has toured with everyone from Little Big Town to Chris Stapleton. She is the tiniest, most stunning creature with the most enormous voice and soul. She has been named one of CMT's Next Women of Country, and Rolling Stone just debuted her trilogy of music videos she made for her album "Letters To Ghosts." Lucie is one of the purest spirits I know; her passion for sharing her gift of music is inspiring and the way she loves her husband, family and friends so fiercely is something nothing short of extraordinary. Oh, and John and his brother TJ, Brothers Osborne, just won CMA Duo Of the year! John tells us how that moment felt in detail! #Nashville #podcast #luciesilvas #carolinehobby #brothersosborne #cmt #womenofcountry

The Jockeys, aka the wives of A Thousand Horses! We had the most amazing band family trip to Aspen earlier this month and while there, I sat my girls down and we talked all about what it's like to be married to a touring artist, and how to keep the balance of home life and road life. My sisters, Amanda, Andrea and Rhain, are all badasses in their own right and it was too much fun to get to hear about their love stories with their hubbys and how we all make this life work together. We also talk about how Graham proposed to Andrea on this trip- it was soooooo good! Annnnnd some pretty cute Horses stop in for a second. #HyperCarolineHobby #podcast #AThousandHorses #Family

Jamie O'Neal! I LOVE this lady. I have to admit it, I was kinda nervous when I first met Jamie because I am such a super fan of her music. When she came out in 2000 with her back to back #1 songs, "There is no Arizona," and "When I think about Angels," I was hooked. Not to forget, she sang "All By Myself" in the dramatic scene in Bridget Jones Diary (I'm still freaking out about this)! She is so interesting; grew up in a traveling family band, she and her father can both yodel, she's been nominated for 4 Grammys and won ACM best New Artist, and has her own record label called Momentum. #nashville #acm #grammys #carolinehobby #jamieoneal #podcast #itunes

He talks all about the freedom he has had since then; Ty is beyond inspiring. He also just released a new album, HOUSE ON FIRE, that he co-produced and wrote many of the songs.

Marie Osmond! I died! I love her so much, and she is absolutely the most down to earth, light hearted, fun, energized, humble person. It was a thrill of a lifetime to interview her. We talk about how she got her start at age 13 with her hit song, "Paper Roses," the Donny and Marie show, and now their Vegas show, the books she's written, how she remarried her first husband almost 30 years later and wore the SAME WEDDING DRESS! How badass is that?! And I'm so pumped to have co-written her current single on the radio, "Baby You're Crazy." #nashville #podcast #marieosmond #hyper #carolinehobby

Oh my gosh, we laughed so hard we cried. Then we cried because of all the beautiful life we have lived together in our band Stealing Angels... we talked about the heartbreak we felt when our band broke up, and now how we both have truly found our happiness doing what we love. Tayla is in a duo with a Grammy award winning guitar player, and they play shows all up and down the North West, selling them out! She is married to a man who is her rock and has 2 beautiful little boys. We talk about what it was like growing up as Loretta Lynn's Granddaughter, her love of singing and performing, alcohol-drugs-relapse-addiction and recovery, and how she has finally learned to live in the moment and enjoy the beautiful life she has created. I LOVED interviewing Tayla so much. She is my sister and truly the person who makes me laugh the hardest. #taylalynn #carolinehobby #hypercarolinehobby #nashville #lorettalynn #stealingangels #podcast
