In this episode, I’m sitting down with the amazing Tara Allmendinger—wife of NASCAR driver AJ Allmendinger, mama to sweet baby Arrow, and just an all-around incredible woman.

Tara shares what it’s really like being married to a race car driver (hint: it’s not as glamorous as it sounds 🙃), and opens up about the real-life moments that have shaped her journey—from her Nebraska roots and love of architecture and pageantry to the day she met AJ and how their life unfolded from there. Their story is incredible, I really enjoyed hearing their love story. 

We talk about: 🏁 Life behind the scenes in the world of NASCAR 👶 Welcoming their son, Arrow, and navigating his craniosynostosis diagnosis and surgeries 🎗️ How the loss of Tara’s mom & grandfather to pancreatic cancer changed her forever—and inspired her to step into advocacy 💛 What keeps her grounded through it all

Tara’s story is filled with heart, strength, and purpose—and I know it’s going to leave you feeling encouraged and inspired to believe in the good, even when life takes unexpected turns.
