She's getting really not afraid to face this episode. So
just let it flow.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
No one can do we quiet care lone is sounding
care loud. Okay, I am so excited to be here
with Kelly Hardy, the Dedicated with Girl. It's amazing.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
I thought, I love hearing it out loud because I
just think wogirl is the funniest thing in the whole
world to say.

Speaker 2 (00:44):
So. Well, okay, so that's our first time meeting in
real life. Yes, you're actually you're so setting on Instagram,
but you're really like your presence as a human in
the physical is very like commanding.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
I'm tall. People are always so surprised to see how
tall you're gonna be? So tall?

Speaker 2 (01:00):
And I was watching your questions at Harty and he
was saying, the first thing you thought what he met
you was he didn't know you're so tall.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
I I'm like, really that of all things, not like
your knockout, your dropped egg gorgeous, obviously that was happening.
I can't say, though, that is I get that so
much like people really are always surprised to see how
tall are you?

Speaker 2 (01:16):
How tall are you.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
I'm five ten, which is tall, but you know, we
got some tall girls in my family.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
So well, we're gonna talk about the ladies in your
family in general, because so going through your Instagram, since
we haven't really gotten to know each other in real
life yet, going through your Instagram, I'm like, I think
you were born to have fun? Were you?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
I feel like that, Like not everyone I'd take that
as such a compliment.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
It's it's such a compliment because I feel like so
many people can't enjoy their lives. You know, so many
people and a lot of people have really hard tragedies
that happen to them, are really tough situations, and especially
when you have a tough start as a kid, It's
like it makes life a lot harder. And I want
to get into your childhood, but I just like looking
at your life, looking at your mom, she's a blast.

(02:02):
Your Grandmothernoni noney, Nanny, Noney, I want to talk about Nanny.
I'm just like your dad. The way y'all do these
family vacations, like you're doing donut eating contests. It feels
like you're in the Hampton's Like when you're like it
is a kid, You're just living this really fun life.
And I feel like your family, your how you came

(02:27):
into their world just figured out how to enjoy life.
Is that?

Speaker 1 (02:31):
So it really is like it is not lost on
me how blessed I am to have to be born
into the family that I was born into and to
have the family that I have, and like, growing up,
I realized very quickly that that is not the norm. No,
And I really was just like, wow, I haven't made.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Like my your mom's like hilarious, Like y'all are like
laughing all the time. Are what was your childhood?

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Like it truly incredible? Like I so, I'm from San Diego, Okay,
and I grew up in Carlsback, California. And I'm one
of three girls. So I have two younger sisters. You're
the oldest, I'm the oldest. And I'm like very the oldest.

Speaker 2 (03:14):
What does that mean, I'm like very birth order.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
I'm I'm very like perfectionism. I kind of take on
this unnecessary, unnecessary like mother slash sister role whether I
want to or not, Like I try so hard not
to be that sister, but it just comes out. I
can't help it. My sisters are gonna laugh when they hear.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
This, but so perfectionism. How does that translate to your sisters?
Like how how do you do you just like know
how they need to be doing their life.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
I I'm always one to be like big on advice,
like I loved, Yes I'm listened or solicited. I'm like, yes, I'm.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
Like, oh but if you don't.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Exactly exactly, So I try and I like try to
hold myself back now that I'm more aware, but like, yes,
very like okay, you know, do as I say, not
as I do. Kind of like, well, you could do this,
you could do this, you know so much so that
it's like okay, shut up, I understand, But more so
for myself, like very high expectations for myself, very high

(04:13):
standards I set for myself, Like you know, I'm the
first to do it, Gotta do it right, gotta do
it the best.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
What happens if you don't do it right or the best?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Oh oh my god. I mean that's been a journey
throughout my whole life. I'm old, are you? I'm twenty seven? Okay,
so I've chilled out more now, But it used to
be like crippling, Like I was like, oh my god,
if I if it wasn't perfect, it was like analysis paralysis.
It was something I really had to work through when
I was younger that I've now kind of like overcompensated
God the other way.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
And now you're the dedicated lie girl live in by
to see our pan.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Like all over the place, I'm like so unorganized, I'm
just nuts everywhere. So it kind of like, really, you know,
you know, I've been all over the map with that.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
I interviewed Stormy Warren one time. Oh, your microphone is
trying kiss you, Agains. That's a time I interviewed Stormy
Warren one time and he told me this, and I've
never forgotten it. He was like, life is like a pendulum,
you know, so like if you're like really high over
I could be saying this wrong. All I can remember
is he said life was like a pendulum. So after that,
this quote is now my own.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
I've that story is on very much.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
So if you're over here on this side, super intense,
super strong, eventually you're gonna have to swing all the
way over to the other side and kind of like
go level it out and then you can kind of
come back in the middle.

Speaker 1 (05:22):
Yeah, I'm on the other side right now, So you're
on the other side and now I'm here, actually all
I know here hopefully.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
How does the other side feel. It's probably a lot
worth that.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
It's crazy and you know what it works out for
what life is right now because I kind of have
to just live that way and like fly by the
seat of my pants and just be very last minute,
be very flexible. Otherwise I think my head would explode.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Being married to Hardy because his career is like on fire.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Yeah, I mean it's it's crazy, like there's always something
going on. Our schedule's nuts. There's you know, just being
on tour. I mean, you know, being on tour, being
on the road is.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
But he's not just on tour. He's like on the
He's been on like the Morgan Wallin tour, which is
like yeah, him, Ernest and Morgan Wallan. Are they other
three amigos?

Speaker 1 (06:07):
Yeah? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (06:08):
How did that even come together? How did they become
this bro pack? Like they're like besties, They're so funny,
they're so tight.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah. They it all started and this was pre me,
like before me, they and then I.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
Want to figure out when y'all met all the thing. Okay,
we'll get into year all's love story.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Okay, okay, yeah, pre yeah, pre me, but it was
it all just started with writing. They were all writers
before they were artists. And I think they just you know,
I know, I know for sure. That's how Morgan and
Michael met. They had to write together and they just
hit it off and became, you know, buddies. And I
think they just really related to being how a lot

(06:43):
of people do in this industry, like country guys just
coming from similar background, small town and then they moved
to Nashville, have this big dream and then earn it's
from here. So he's like local celeb, like mayor of Nashville,
you know, and they all just they all just hit
it off. And Big Loud they all work for Big Loud.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
Was that just random they were all there or did
they did? They kind of help each other all get there.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
They I think they met and when they met, they
clicked and knew like this is something special. We write
great together. We enjoy each other's company. We love the hang,
and the hang is so big. Like if Michael doesn't
love the hang, like it's not happening, it's not happening.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Like in any form in his life.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Like if the hang is not there, then it's not
worth it.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
The ViBe's not gonna happen. Yeah, that's all about the.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Vibe, definitely, And it's about like, you know who you're
gonna spend You're spending a lot of time with these people.
So they just hit it off and clicked, and I
think they knew, like we work well together, we have
fun together, like this is gonna be a thing.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
It didn't. Michael write Morgan's first song, up Down Yeah,
uh huh, because I interviewed Morgan for I used to
work for a National Insider. It was a reporting we did,
like all the red cards and stuff, and I was
interviewing Morgan for his first number one and I interviewed
Hardy too, and it was like their first number one
I ever had, and it was there's like a beer
can number one. It was so fun and it was

(08:04):
like okay, And I was remember thinking to myself like
I feel like this is really I you know, I
called it. This is really something great.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Updown is. I love that song so much, like that
will always forever be such a special song and fun fact,
this is so funny. Michael is in the Updown music
video and if you go watch him in that music video.
You literally will not even recognize why. He just the

(08:34):
what he looked like versus now we laugh so hard
about it because he just is so different.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
That was just it.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
He calls he had long hair, he had the hat
less facial hair and just so young, like little baby Michael,
and it's so funny. And then it's like baby Morgan
baby Michael in this music video. It's my favorite thing ever.

Speaker 2 (08:59):
Does Hard only wear shorts?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
Literally, if we were in Antarctica, he would wear shorts
like I I know he would. He does not feel temperature.
It is the most insane thing to me. Really, he
wears shorts all day. He's got good legs, so he
like loves showing off his legs. His yeah, yeah, he's
got his leg hat so that he's very excited about.
So and I knew. So his leg is his travel leg.

(09:23):
Wait what so okay, so he has so he started
like it started with his arm okay, so okay. So
his first tattoo was a chest hat. That's a bold move,
so bold, and he like is probably his oh yeah,
it's like writing across his He.

Speaker 2 (09:39):
Decided to write across his chest for his first tattoo.
What does it saying?

Speaker 1 (09:43):
First tattoo, it's a it's a metal lyric. Oh my god,
I need to know this. I know this. I am
a fallen victim? What is that? He's like emo is like,
it's so emo because he's rock.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
They're coming from raw.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Oh my god, like rock metal, but like he truly
loves like metal. So he was in college and he
went to this like tattoo shop in Murphy'sborough and he
got this big old chest hat and that was his first.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
Time I am a fallen victim. What does that mean?

Speaker 1 (10:09):
Yeah, I am a fallen victim. Like god knows, I
don't think it even means anything to him. At this point,
He's just like, what the hell to day? What is this?
He wants to get it covered up with something, but
he yeah, exactly CALLI but his arm. Then after that
he started getting little ones on his arm. And he
has a county fair from his hometown that's really important

(10:31):
to him, so he has the wristband of that county fair.
And then slowly he started doing all these Mississippi tattoos
on his Armippi. He's from Mississippi, so that became his
like his home Mississippi arm.

Speaker 2 (10:44):
So we're saying travel leg. Okay, So his body he's
divided into parties.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yes, so this arm there's themed the themes limb, limb.

Speaker 2 (10:53):
Steve it. He has themed whims. So his arm is
his home.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
His arm is home.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
Right and left arm, left arm, left arm. That's connected
to your heart.

Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yes, so well it was at first this is this
is cute. He it was his Mississippi arm first, but
then when we got married, he we had a tattoo
artist at our wedding and he tattooed the date of
our wedding on his finger, and then he got on
his home arm. Yes, and my I have a little

(11:23):
part in my vows where I said to him like
something along the lines of like in this our life
is so crazy, and in a life that we are
constantly away and constantly traveling and being away from each other,
I always want to feel like home to you, and
I always want to be home. And so he got
my favorite flower on his hand and then he just

(11:43):
kind of started calling it.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
Like Cali, that is so sweet.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
It's really cute. It's really cute. It means it's very
sentimental and like from him, that is such a new Bold. Yes,
it's such a you know, a gesture, gesture of affection.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
And love and not like a lovey dovey guy he is.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
But I mean I am one like emotion, so emotive.
I'm like loud in everything I feel, and he's very
much not that. So he finds his ways to really, like,
you know, show his love. And that was that was cute.
That was a big one.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
So tell me this. Because I'm married to a musician
also Michael from a Thousand Horses, and he has some tattoos.
I feel personally if I did not connect with his
music or his tattoos, I would have a hard time
being with his body.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Oh my god, because like, do.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
You like all the tattoos, because otherwise it's like if
you're not, like what, there's one that you don't like
to look at.

Speaker 1 (12:43):
I all the time think to myself and tell him
with the music, I'm like, thank god, I like your
music because I like the cringe that it would be
to not like that.

Speaker 2 (12:54):
I don't think you could do it. It would be actually,
he would be a portrait if you were I thank you.
I don't think you can connect with someone who's an
artist if you don't connect with their artistry.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Especially when it's this big of a piece of your life,
like you're like, I'm living a lie out of here,
like crappy Ross music. No, I would die. I would
physically die. And I thank god, I'm so so happy
and blessed that that worked out that way. Yes, But
the tattoos, I always like, put up a fight and

(13:26):
I'm like, oh, don't get another tattoo, like, don't do it,
ew tattoo, and then he gets it and I always
love it.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
Okay, So y'all are like artistically in sync here, like yeah,
you're well.

Speaker 1 (13:37):
We agree, like we disagree on a lot of taste,
like musical taste. We have very different.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Tastes, Like what is your taste?

Speaker 1 (13:44):
I like very like cheesy California country, like hear that
the country songs that people are like, oh my god,
is that even country? Like you know, just like bro country,
like old school FGL like I love all that stuff,
Like I love it here. You're a song, Like I
really don't care what lyrics you're like actually saying, as

(14:04):
long as I'm like whoo yeah this is like yeah yeah,
like honestly, and he needs to I got a woo somewhere,
so one way or another. And Michael is so like
lyrically message driven, like if it well and also I mean,
how can you blame him? But he's so focused in
on the lyric and the hook and like if it

(14:25):
means anything or if he if he's like, oh, I
would have done it. I would have done that. Differently,
like he can't hear a song just as a song,
but every once in a while some band or artists
will come along and he's just like, oh hell.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yes, why is that he's come along lately?

Speaker 1 (14:39):
He do? You know Bill Murray?

Speaker 2 (14:42):
I feel like he's an act the band.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Okay, so yes, okay, So I think that's like what
he named his art. Okay.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
I like Bill Murray's like the guy so.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
He's really funny. He's like he's a metal artist in town.
I think he's local in Nashville.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
Okay, so metal metal and.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
Or like there's this metal band sleep Token that I
never or like you know here the end up. We're
hear it every single day in the car and he's
just like they light a fire inside of him. I'm like,
I Bill Murray is freaking awesome. They're so cool. But
like when you get into the real metal stuff. I'm like,
I like, there is not a world in which I
can understand.

Speaker 2 (15:17):
So are his shows like metal shows?

Speaker 1 (15:19):
I was gonna say, have you been to a show?
I have to take you?

Speaker 2 (15:23):
What is it like to go to a hardy show?

Speaker 1 (15:25):
So okay, So it is at its core like country, patriotic,
all your favorite things about a country concert are there.
And then there's also screaming, screaming like he literally it's
like there's a mosh pit sometimes, like there could be
if you wanted it to be, like he is, there's headbanging,

(15:46):
people are getting into it. You see some people there
with like Metallica shirts on.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
Like people are ready to range.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Oh yeah, like you're going and it's not just oh
a cute, fun country concert, like you're rocking out in
the show. It is the best show. It is the
best live show I've ever seen. And I try am
trying not to be biased, Like it is incredible, Like
he really is a performer and entertainer. You are not
bored a second of the show. It's insane, like it

(16:15):
really is. You go through a whole journey, journey on
this set. It's awesome.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
Okay, to wrap up, the travel leg what's the travel
leg tattoo?

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Okay, Okay. So it started when we went to on
the Morgan tour. We went to New Zealand and Australia
and he wanted to get a tattoo so bad and
it had to be like an Australia tattoo.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Or she loved New Zealand and Australia.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yes, it was so cool, beautiful, it was so cool,
the people, the seafood. It's all about the food for
us ever recover like that food was so great, but
it really is gorgeous. It is incredible. So he got
a boomerang for Australia.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
Ok.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
He got a muscle for no sorry, an oyster an
oyster for New Zealand, like the local like green or
whatever oyster it is. And then we went to Thailand
for a honeymoon and he got a little tuktook those
little carts that you like those pedal bikes kind of
like pedal taxis that you drive around it and they're

(17:13):
all colorful and cute. Yes, he got his tooktook on
his leg and then we just went to Italy and
I think I told him he should get aperol sprits.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
So instead of collecting ornaments, he's collecting tattoos, however where
he travels.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Yes, I collect the ornaments, he collects the tattoo.

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Okay, do you have any tattoos?

Speaker 1 (17:27):
I have? No, you have no. I don't have a
single tattoo.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
Not even one. No a desire.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
It's so weird to me because I feel like I
am the kind of person to have tattoos. But I can't.
It's the perfectionism in me. I can't decide. I cannot
make my mind up on one. I would just die.
If I made my mind up and then it was
on my arm, I'd be like I should have gone
with the other one. I can't. Yes, I can't make
it a life of me.

Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah, okay, okay, so let's go back to the beginning here. CALLI. Okay,
you're born up Nora. No, You're born to San Diego,
San Diego, and you're I feel like you are a
woman driven family. I feel like your dad's awesome. But
the women are strong.

Speaker 1 (18:08):
We are so strong. And that's so funny. You would
say that because my dad. I have to give so
much credit to him, because.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
He is canna handle strong women.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
He is the manliest macho man's man to ever live.
I mean he was a Navy seal. No, yes, no, yes,
he was a Navy seal. Yes, he was a Navy seal.
He's a fireman right now.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
A Navy seal. That is so hard and so few
people are navy seal.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Oh and my uncle so hardy.

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Better watch out.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
Oh that well, that's the thing. He was so scared.
He was like, oh my god, like what the hell?

Speaker 2 (18:43):
Like how did it be taken out? He didn't even
know what hit him. If he does, you're wrong.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
He's like people are scared of meeting their girlfriend's dad,
Like it's your girlfriend's dad and freaking navy seal. Yes,
I don't want to hear it. Yes, but he is.
He is such a teddy bear and like just ray
of sunshine. He's this ball of energy. Like you never
in a million years be intimidated by him, unless he
wanted you to be intimidated by him.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
He's like an on off switch.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Then that's a different story.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
So he turns it off. Oh yeah, but then when
he turns it out, so has he told you any
of his stories? And he's navy steal story he like
has but hasn't but it's like under lockdown or something.
You know.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
I haven't really pushed, but I have heard some crazy stories.
And also, so my uncle was a Navy seal.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
With his brother.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
No, so my my dad's sister married, So my dad's
one of my dad's best friends from Bud's training, which
is like navy seal training. Was my was my uncle,
and he met my dad's sister at my mom and
dad's wedding and that was it and they got married.
So my dad and my uncle were seals together. And

(19:47):
so it's like we literally have two in our family whatever.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
They're probably like best friends.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Whenever they get together, that's when all the stories come out,
Like all they start reminiscing and like, oh the good
old days when we were just doing the most crazy
shit ever.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Didn't navy skills like take down? Oh yeah yeah, Like
those are the ones that go in for the big
oh big big bird job. They're the scariest of the scariest.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
Absolutely, they're the best of the best. They're like you know,
special hops like do it an I mean, just the
training alone is so insane that most people would mentally
and physically break right, I mean, and they don't, And
they do it for a reason because they have to
weed out those people to take on these jobs.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
So your dad is like next.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Level he is, and like my mom always says, they
they're either missing something that all of us have or
they have something extra up because they're not right in
the head and they really are not like they have
a mental switch to where they're like nothing can get
to them, or it's just they are so mentally strong
that they're like, I do not care what is in
front of me. I'm gonna get past it, and I'm

(20:46):
gonna do it the best anyone's ever done it, I mean.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
And they can physically endure anything, like any kind of
like torture.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Literally, and it's it's just as mental. And the whole
point of training, I think is to show or to
prove to the men that like, mentally you have to
be stronger than you are physically, because if you are
mentally there, you can get past, get through anything. Like
my dad, I think when he finished training, he had
a broken back and two broken legs, Like he literally
was physically broken, and he just kept pushing through. You

(21:19):
just can't quit, and that's all they try to get
you to do. The entire time through training is to quit.
And they're in your face yelling the most obscene things
you've ever heard. They're just breaking you down from the
inside out, and all you have to do is just
like tune it out.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
So your dad is like unaffected.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
He is so like he's yeah, he's crazy in the
best way possible. Like he is the most driven, determined,
self disciplined person I've ever met. And so raising all girls.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
And he got three girls.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, so that's why that's where all this comes in,
because it's a lot of humor he really does. And
funny enough, a lot of his steal friends have all girls.

Speaker 2 (22:05):
It's like almost they need that balance. I just thing
to soften them up because I think so ways he
might make him little seals one hundred percent.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
And I think though that it has given him the
best opportunity to be the best girl dad ever. Like
he has given us such an interesting perspective of like
strength and you can just you guys are badass, Like
he just raised us to be like you can do
anything you want to do, like and don't take shit
from anybody, like he's he was so like that, and

(22:33):
so we have like the gentleness and sweetness of our mom,
who is just like the most kind and forgiving and
like just a little ray of sunshine person. And then
he is like strength and you know, determination and just
like tenacity and all these things. And he just has
like a mind of like he's always thinking of the

(22:54):
next thing he wants to do, or you know, like
always leveling up. And so we are we kind of
or like a little mix of the two of those.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
So what was life like with them? Did he go
on missions when you were a kid?

Speaker 1 (23:06):
No, so he retired. He left after my middle sister
was born. But he's kind of always been involved, like
you can't.

Speaker 2 (23:15):
Fully he's a steel here, always a say like.

Speaker 1 (23:17):
You can't leave. And he's always a lot of his
really good buddies are still there, like running.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Running buds, and he's the training.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
The training like in Coronado. If you've ever seen pictures
of them, like covered in sane and like when they're
when they're in the pool with the weights tied to
their feet like drowning, that's that. So yeah, it's it's nuts.
Like we can drive down to Coronado and see it
and we're like this is.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Crazy and your dad like wanted to do this.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
Like he wanted to do that from when he was
a child, a child he was he wanted to he
knew he wanted to do something like in that like realm,
and so he first wanted to be Green Bray and
then he wanted to be an Abcal. So he went
to college and then enlisted as an officer and got
through training and it was yeah, so that was like
always the dream him. That was it? Wow? Yeah yeah, yeah, so.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
I was not seeing that coming. That's like a total yes,
like growing up with a Navy seal dad. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
that truly is. You're you're operating from another stratosphere.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
So it was awesome. I mean it definitely did give
us like a mental strength.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yeah, and especially like if you're feeling like you're gonna
have a breakdown, you know you're gonna make it through
because you know, yea, your dad has made it through
all these things. He can coach you through it. You
have support. It's like, Okay, nothing's too hard, we can
do this.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Do you feel that, Yeah? I do. I do. We definitely,
like we I feel a lot of emotions, Like I
feel things very heavy and very like all in or
like everything I feel is to the extreme, and so
it does help me feel like.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
I'm that same way.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
There's always yeah, it's.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Kind of awful. It is amazing and terrible.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's pretty intense.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
I am so empathetic, so you're probably super empathetic.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
I am, like it is. It's kind of and I Bill,
it's I think of you because I'm like, I can't
even imagine having a child, because like, I feel all
these things so so much. Like yesterday, I'll give you
an example. Oh my god, yesterday we were on the
way to dinner and I looked. It was Mother's Day
and I looked. We live in Green Hills, and there's
this like cute old old people home for old teachers,

(25:20):
retired teachers, and I saw some of them sitting outside
by themselves on the patio, and I like sobbing, Like
I just started sobbing. And I was like, dun, did
people come with them a happy Mother's Day?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Like?

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Did they have a good day? Like? And then I
was like why why am I not doing enough for them?
Like those are the people that need an extra hug
and love. And I was just like a mess in
the car. I mean anything I could literally find it
in anything, I could look at that curtain anything.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
Children who don't have homes or bad homes. Oh my gosh,
it's like.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
No, it's insane. And I'm like, I can't imagine like
having like a like I I think it's bad now,
I'm like imagine having a kid like.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
When mine got terrible. Mine got terrible when I had
a kid because I was so so so so so
like obsessed with her and like I was just like,
oh my god, like I didn't know how to handle
my feelings. I had I swear I had postpartum for
like two straight years afterwards, where I was just like
weepy all the time, so emotional, like I could not
be away from her, Like I just was so so
I'm so worried about anything happening to her, Like I

(26:25):
put I would put a little uh, there's this thing
called an outlet. I would wrap it on her foot
so it would monitor her heartbeat, and then I would
come in and check her like sixteen times during the night,
like I just was so afraid something was gonnabit to
her all times. Once she like came into a little
human and like became her self, it's pretty much gone.
I mean I still have resilient, but I realized I'm

(26:46):
high functioning codependent, and I did not know that because
that I went. I got a life coach a couple
of years ago.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
That's interesting.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
Before I hit forty, I was like, I can't live
with this debilitating like feeling where every time I see
something that makes me sad, I immediately enter that person's
life in my head and I take on their full existence.
I feel their pain all the way to the bottom
of their childhood, and then I'm like feeling how it
felt as them as growing up, and I feel the
whole thing. But I'm creating the story myself, so it's

(27:12):
totally not like totally accurate, but I've created this story
and then I just circle it around my head and
I live it over and over and I can't believe
that that had to happen in that person, and I
stay stuck in the sad part of the story. I
never get to the redemption. And that's what I finally realize,
is like I get stuck on people's traumas and it
breaks my heart and I can't get to the redemption.

(27:35):
And so it's like it's like watching a movie and
like stopping it when they're in the worst part where
they're all dying in the war and everyone's losing each
other and falling apart. You don't get to the end
where it's like redeemed. Yes, And I was like, I
can't live in that space anymore because it's literally driving
me to insanity.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Yeah, I feel that so hard. I feel that on
such like you were speaking to my heart right now.
But you're right, like you've gotta you.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Might be a high functioning codependent.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
My just looking.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
And the thing was, I didn't think I was codependent
because I've always pursued my dreams.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
I've always can just be codependent on just what anything.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
So for me, what codependence is is like if we
walk into a room, and now I've like learned how
to turn this off a lot. If I walk into
a room, I can immediately scan the entire room. I
can see who's not feeling good, Like if someone's not
feeling well, or like if they're not happy, if I
can feel their energy level, if I can feel their
energy level is sad or if they have I can
feel sadness radiating from them, or like trauma radiating from them,

(28:33):
I immediately have to go to them. In my past life.
I don't do this as much anymore because it's I can't.
I will have to go to them. I will try
to like analyze their whole life. I will try to
find what's good about them and build them up and
make sure they know they're great and give them some
encouragement because I'm like, it's my job to bring you
out of your sadness, because I feel your sadness and
I can't stand it. I can't stand when people are
sad and traumatic. And I think that my podcasts is

(28:56):
probably why I started this because I didn't help it
for you when I would just talk about people's traumas
all the time, and I would just talk about how
they healed them and how they got into them, because
everyone has traumas, and I just can't bear the fact
that people have to live with all that. We just
like mess people up so much. Humans just we're so great,
but like we just mess it up so much.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
You know, that's so sweet, You're such a kind heart,
but it's.

Speaker 2 (29:16):
Really But then, okay, so learning I'm a high functioning codependent.
This is what this is what changed the game for me. Okay,
So this woman named Terry Cole. She has a book
called Boundary Boss and it changed my life where and
I heard her speak and she said, why do you
feel like you have to fix the outcome for that person?

(29:36):
How do you not know that their life crumbling apart
and falling apart is not what they need to happen, Like,
you know, people have to hit these rock bottom moments,
people have these traumatic events, but then they get the
opportunity to build from it, and their life can be
absolutely exponentially amazing because of this experience if they do

(29:56):
their own healing. But why do I feel like it's
my job to go in and save everyone and heal everyone?
That's that's me feeling like I don't know how she
said it. It's not like Jesus or arrogant, but like,
why do I think that I'm the one that's supposed
to save everyone?

Speaker 1 (30:11):
You know? Yeah, but of course you don't see it
like that. You're just like, oh, I want to I
just feel it. But then I just feel them totally.
So I feel their energy and I immediately absorb it
one hundred percent. Weirdly enough, I actually kind of don't,
so like I don't go that far. That's good. I
kind of been like I have this threshold where I'm like, okay,
like that's on you at this point.

Speaker 2 (30:31):
That's he that's healthy. You're probably not a high function
could have been it because you're like, okay.

Speaker 1 (30:35):
You got to fixture.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
Once my little and she realized they got to save themselves.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
Yes, I'm just kind of like all right, like good look, yeah,
I'm like you need to figure that out. Is a
therapy like yeah, go on a walk or something like.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
That's good, so you're not taking it on like then
just like if you can't save.

Speaker 1 (30:51):
That, no, no, no, like I'll give and give and give
and give as much as I can, or I'll feel
like i'll you know, try and like give advice where
it's needed or try to do my part. But then
when they get it once, they don't take it. A
couple of times, I'm like, if.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
They drive their own car home, you can't. You can't
sit there and drive their car.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
No, totally, and I can't. Once that's there, like, once
I've reached that shold, I'm kind of like, okay, that's
like I wish you go on your yeah, go on
your way, and like I wish you well.

Speaker 2 (31:20):
And that's actually a very healthy boundary. That's so you're
very empathetic. But you have boundaries. That's good, that's really great.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
It's like I have I think I kind of have
like maybe a low maybe it's patience, like low patience.
I'll be like, Okay, you know what you need to do,
so do it.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
Okay, And this is your perfectionism probably too, because you're like,
this is what needs to happen. Why are you not
doing it?

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Probably, And it's like not that I would do that
for myself, but seeing it from the outside, I'm like,
this is so obvious. Duh.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
Just do these and you're gonna have a great life.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Which sounds like such an asshole thing to say, but
I'm just.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Like, but you can see it. You're like, why are
you self sabotaging if you just go and do these
disease and you're gonna have a great life, So why
are you just like self sabotaging yourself?

Speaker 1 (32:00):
Pretty much?

Speaker 2 (32:01):
I mean, you're not wrong.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
I'm gonna read what's wait boundary? Boundary that's such a
good title thing.

Speaker 2 (32:07):
Well, I didn't really I had no idea, I had
no boundaries. I had no boundaries. But now I actually
think I have a lot of boundaries.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
Now, my boundaries have had to change, Like I mean,
boundaries change though so much, like depending on what you're doing,
different phases of your life. What is fulfilling you, what's not?

Speaker 2 (32:21):
Are you aware of your boundaries? Are you aware when
someone's taking too much from you?

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (32:27):
And like you can.

Speaker 1 (32:28):
I can feel it protect that? Yeah, I think so.
Maybe I'm not so good at protecting it when it's
myself initially, but again, like once you reach once, once
I've I'm made aware of it and I feel like
it's taken enough out.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
Of me and they're not doing their part.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Yes, yes, then I can it always. I can feel
it because I know once I feel hesitant to do
something or I'm kind of like shy or eye roll,
that's when I know, I'm like, that's too much? Like
what am I? Like? What's going on?

Speaker 2 (32:58):
Good for you for doing that? Yeah, I feel like
it's super important to have boundaries when you're married to
someone who is a big rising star, like you're married
to Hardy And I see bras on stage all the time,
Like girls are like always trying to bras. Why do
they throw bras like they just want to take their
broth and throw it on stage.

Speaker 1 (33:12):
I think so. And I have to call myself out
because I have. I am one of.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
Those bras, So I have you actually started the bras
on stage. The reason the bras are on stage because
Cali threw her first first I.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
Am for sure the first boobs at a show huge
were seen.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
You're wearing you show your boobs? Yeah, I was like
you flash people like You're like, you're like but like
you're in the audience and you're flashing.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Well not anymore, but his first show. I did flash
him at his first show because I was like, I'm
going to be the first.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Were y' all dating?

Speaker 1 (33:38):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah?

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Or is this how you started dating?

Speaker 1 (33:40):
No?

Speaker 2 (33:41):
It was fg OL house party Halloween on her See
you always have parties, so you're like a party. Are
you have like party party grass?

Speaker 1 (33:49):
Oh my god. That was the best thing ever. It
was like you were you were here for a great party.
We've always had something to do. I mean I was
still in college when that was the thing. So I
came up for his first show. It was like so exciting,
big deal. Okay, it was just on the rooftop of
FGL party Halloween. Yeah, his very first shows and.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
A Halloween party.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
It was his Yeah, it was like his version. It
was Yeah, just so happened to fall on Halloween around
his EP release, and so they were like, let's do
a hearty Halloween party. So everyone justsed up costumes and yeah.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
Did you get a rush from that? Does it like
make you feel alive? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (34:22):
I mean why not? I was like, no one saw
which how but I maybe he's like mom or dad did?
I don't know, but great, I hope.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
So, I mean I hope his dad's off for sure.
He's like, that's the girl You're gonna marry Michael right there.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
And I was like, I can forever have that. I
forever get the badge of you.

Speaker 2 (34:40):
Were the first. Yeah, okay, but I do feel like
you have to have some strong boundaries when you're dating
someone who's getting brass thrown on stage all the time,
Like are people after him?

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Or But I don't feel like you have that.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
I don't feel like you are jealous of fangirls. I
it's like I'm a very.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
Healthy Yeah, I'm really not well and that I have
to give him all the credit for that.

Speaker 2 (34:58):
Because the way he he conducts himself for sure, and luckily.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
Because you know, oh my gosh, I couldn't imagine what
it would be like for someone like I don't know,
who's trying to date, like a Morgan or someone that
has been established as this like single heart throb, and
then you start dating someone.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
Who also we know loves to make out because we've
seen it, you know, I mean, he's enjoying the exactly.
It would be hard to lock someone like that down
for sure.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
And so luckily Michael and I were dating before he
was an artist. So anyone who's known Michael has like
known us as a relationship, so that I think helps
bad that you started dating pre I am. So we
talk about it all the time, how think, well, thankful
we are for that, not just for like the girls,

(35:47):
like honestly, that's our last thought. It's the relationship in
the foundation that we built before this like whirlwind of
a life, because it is so hard to navigate your
way through this like lifestyle. And if we didn't have
those first like a year, I think, like, if we
didn't have that first year of just like solid just

(36:10):
us living life, just in complete normalcy, it it would
be a completely different situation, different scenario. I don't I
mean we would be a different couple, like a different
really coming.

Speaker 2 (36:21):
In a different spot. You're viewing him as a different person.
He's doing you different. Y'all just came in as normal,
equal people who were fallen in love.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
Yeah, exactly, but none of the it would be really
hard now, I mean, what.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Are some of the hardest things. Hardest things to navigate?
The rise of fame like his has risen, I.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Think, well, and what's funny is it hit us? It
was challenging for us separately at different times. So for
him it was more challenging in the beginning because it
was the initial like my life is changing, so and
the schedule when you first start out, I mean, you know,
is very taxing, Like you're on radio shows like over

(37:00):
one hundred shows a year. You're gone all the time.
So your life as you know it is gone for
like a year, year and a half, maybe two years,
And that was very hard for him. And then it
was the initial like he's a homebody and he's actually,
you know, very introverted. So the initial like realization of oh,
people are watching me when I'm out in public or

(37:22):
people know who I am, and like privacy is not
privacy anymore when you're like, you can't just go about
your day and just well right. So that was very
hard for him to come to terms with at first,
and then you know, it became hard for us balancing
time and figuring out you know, you have such little
free time, like how are you going to spend it?

(37:43):
Because you have to refill your tank? I have to
refill mine and then we together as a couple, have
to refill ours. So it's like, how do you split
that time? Doing what? You know? Recharges all of our batteries?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Did have y'all found your.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
It took a lot time, but I would say like
this year and like this past year.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Hit your but yeah, yeah, okay, So how do you refeel?
How does he refeel? And how do y'all refeel? Together?

Speaker 1 (38:09):
I am such a social being at my core, Like
he's tired.

Speaker 2 (38:13):
And you're a social being. Yeah, you are kind of opposite.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
We are. We are like our core at our core
values and ethics and like how we see life and
see the world are the same, but personality wise and
how we go about things and like handle situation is
very different.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
So he's not a dedicated WU guy.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
He is not a dedicated on me wear that hat
with pride, which is so cu you have supportive wu guy,
I know, but yeah, so very different. So that has
taken a lot of trial and error to just like
figure out who we are, like how we you know,
which is just any couple figuring that out. But this

(38:52):
this past like year, I would say we really figured
out because we've gotten a little bit more breathing time.
He's slowed down, so we're like, okay, this we now
can take a step back, look at what our life is,
look at our schedule, find out what works for us.
Where the you know, threshold is of like this is
the sweet spot, this is too much. We are run down,

(39:12):
You're burnout. I'm burnout, and then kind of like draw back.
But we've figured it out. He he likes to be.
He has to be in the country. He has to
be fishing, golfing, being outside. He is big. He is
really passionate about hunting for arrowheads, like arrowhead.

Speaker 2 (39:31):
People who are I have a name with. My family
has some land in Texas, so we have some friends
who have landed too. And my wife, her name, my wife,
the wife Liz. She hunts for hours, oh hours. He
will literally it's like an obsession for people who love
to hunt for ara. So he's an arrowhead hunter is
and he but think about it, it just totally takes

(39:52):
your mind off of everything.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Completely mindless. You're just looking. It's your outside in nature.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
I mean, you're not distracted by the hamster of all
the things that are constantly running through your head, especially
when you're running this big operation. Here's so much stress,
so much pressure, so many wonderful things. But it's like
that's a little big, totally and width of energy to
constantly have on a loop in his head.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
I'm sure totally.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
So to have something like arrowhead hunting where you're outside
and just literally looking at the dirt, yeah, yeah, like and.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
You have to see it. I'm like, we're looking at
the dirt for.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
You're analyzing every rock. Could this be an arrowhead? Could
this not? And then there's all different types of arrowheads.

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Oh, and he he knows, he knows if it's prehistoric,
he knows what era, what tribe, what, he knows all
of it. He knows the different types. He knows if
it's a raw, if it just looks like a stone,
it could still be an airhead. He's like, that's not
an arrowhead, but that's a working stone because you can
see the thumb print where they used to hold it
and there, and I'm like, Okay, does he have a collection? Oh,

(40:48):
he has a beautiful collection. It is honestly jaw dropping
when you were You're like, these are here. I mean
he finds a very like spiritual connection to like totally
these people lived here, like these are real.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
He's like envisioning their lives and like the magnitude of
like experiencing.

Speaker 1 (41:09):
It's very emotional for him. Really, yeah it is.

Speaker 2 (41:11):
Does he cry?

Speaker 1 (41:12):
He I'm sure he has. I'm sure there's a couple
of eras in there that like it took. Yeah, yeah,
it is. And it connects him with home because he
grew up. Where he grew up in Mississippi is on
like a Choctaw reservation and there's a lot of chalktaw
land around him, so lots of artifacts, lots of arrowheads.
So it really like brings him back to home and

(41:35):
just like what he where he finds peace, where he
finds comfort.

Speaker 2 (41:46):
Does he have an arrowhead tattoo?

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Yeah? He does?

Speaker 2 (41:48):
Oh I think so, I mean that feels like you belong.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
To Actually he has one big one on his arm
and then he has one on his back. Okay, yeah, okay.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
I love that. Do you like to arrowhead hunt as well?

Speaker 1 (41:57):
I have gone with him is a little tedious. He
has a gift for it. I do not. I do not,
and I every time and I get pissed because I'll
go pick up something that literally looks like an arrowhead
and I'll be like, I found an arrowhead and then
he'll just go and just it'll snap at half and
he's like, it's not an airhead, and I'm like, God,
every time I think I found one, I don't find one.
So whatever, that's fine.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
Hey, but you know, do it all? So how do
you recharge?

Speaker 1 (42:22):
I have to be out with friends. I have to
just be like doing something like out and about dinner
and activity?

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Do you by being with people that you love? Yes?

Energy is all colliding sharing all that fun and like
do you want it to be fun? Like you want active?

Speaker 1 (42:42):
Oh yeah, I'm all about an experience, Like I want
to experience something. Let's go do something like an activity
or like all those funny little and Nashville is filled
with so many of those.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Now, So you love that Nashville's bachelor at Capital of
the World. You're like, you're getting involved with all the
thing honestly, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
But you're not mad about that. Yeah, no, I am
so bad. Like you can be const I would be like,
that is me, that is me. I really would like
I really enjoy those things. I would do it all
the time.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
See, I would have to be joining Hardy with the
Aaron and hunting, and I'd be like, okay, have fun.
Being in the midst of all the people sends me
into a little bit of spiral.

Speaker 1 (43:18):
It is a lot like I cannot do it. I mean,
like who I was in college, like up here, like
I come down a little bit. Yeah, Like my partying
is not what it used to be.

Speaker 2 (43:28):
Still looks pretty good.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
It is like when it's time, it's time, Like you're
the best?

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Are you the most fun at the party?

Speaker 1 (43:35):
Let's just try to be my gosh, I try to be.
That's like would be the highest honor to be awarded
that that title. But I don't know. I mean, I
have the best group of friends, Like we're so much fun,
all of us, that we're all just a good time.
Everyone has fun together.

Speaker 2 (43:50):
Okay, So let's bring it back to Nanny yeah, Nanny. Yeah, okay, yes,
So first off, Nanny is a chain smoker, hard, which
I love.

Speaker 1 (44:01):
Virginia slams the long ones that are like this long.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Can we introduce her to Luke Bryan's mom because I
feel like they might hit it off.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
Will you facilitate because yes, that would be my dream.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
I forgot her name. Oh gosh, I love Luke Brian's mom.
She's like my favorite character to watch. Claire Claire okaya
Claire Claire?

Speaker 1 (44:21):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I get Claire, but I was like,
that's a pastry.

Speaker 2 (44:24):
Caroline, Luke's wife, and Leclaire are like best season. Like
their documentation kind of was reminding me of Nooney.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
She is the bad They would seriously, they would hit
it off.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Okay, so she chained smokes. Yeah, she drinks fireball.

Speaker 1 (44:39):
Out of out of a Martini glass like full just googlegle.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
Yeah, tell me about her. Is that your mom's mom?

Speaker 1 (44:44):
It is my mom's mom.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
Is that where your mom gets her fun and spice?
Or but your mom's so sweet?

Speaker 1 (44:48):
No, so my mom. They make fun of each other
all the time because Nunny's always like your mom was.
She would just go to bed in high school and
I would say up in party with her friends, like
like mom is not on the level that nanny is on.
Like I don't know honestly where this came from. But
she is a firecracker. She is funny. She the casino
is her real passion. I feel like that fits as

(45:09):
for most grandma's. You know, she loves the casino.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
She loves for most grandma's in the casino, Yes, because yes,
grandma's are.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
There, Oh my god. And she you know, she'll get
she's there so often that they'll givet her like these.

Speaker 2 (45:20):
Like does she live there one days?

Speaker 1 (45:22):
Like kind of not even not really, she'll track it.
It's a drive and is she driving. No, but she's
gonna make one of us drive and she's like, we're
going to the casino.

Speaker 2 (45:29):
She can't hear very well.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
She can't hear.

Speaker 2 (45:31):
She's deaf, like all the way.

Speaker 1 (45:33):
Like if she takes her hearing aids out, yeah, but
she can hear okay with her hearing aids. And she's
a crazy good lip reader, so you can totally like
communicate with her. She's yeah, she's on it. She's got
to figure it out. But she that's why she likes
the slots because she'll just go and just for days,
literally for days, like days without going to bed, without

(45:54):
going to the She'll pull all nighters. I mean she
doesn't sleep. I can't sleep. I actually this is so bad,
she's any four.

Speaker 2 (46:03):
See, this just goes to show, Okay, not that I'm
promoting smoking or drinking or anything like that.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
That is no rhyme or reason to why people live.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
I think I think it has to do with enjoyment
of life.

Speaker 1 (46:12):
It does.

Speaker 2 (46:13):
I think she's enjoying her life so much. She's not
sitting over there stressing that she's gonna get cancer from
smoking a cigarette, which once again, I'm not promoting drinking
or smoking cigarette what you mean, But like, I think
if you are the type of person like Noney, Yes,
who is like I'm gonna have a damn good time.
I'm gonna enjoy my life. Let's find the best situation
we can do and like live it up. She's in

(46:35):
such a flow of enjoyment that I think people who
are enjoy who actually can.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Enjoy their life, live longer. I mean, you know, you
see those like Chinese women who are one hundred and
ten and they're like, my key to life is drinking
five cokes and smoking five cigarettes to day, and you're like.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Because they're enjoying. I think it's enjoyment of your life.
You're sitting around stressing about it, or you're like in
actual like emotional turmoil or physical turmoil, it's hard to
enjoy your life as much. But like Naney, she's not
worried about it. She doesn't seem I don't know her office, No.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
So she So she's physically she has this, she has
Meneer's disease, which is like very it's very rare, it's
very weird. But your crystal is in your ear, like
your inner ear get thrown off. So you have a
co which is like your balance, and it's completely thrown off.
So she gets these like really bad stages of vertigo.
So when she's bad, she's bedridden. So when she's not,

(47:27):
she's like, we're going, oh yeah, she likes to gambol, smoke, drink.
We when she was in here, when she was in
Nashville for our wedding, she discovered an espresso martini.

Speaker 2 (47:39):
Oh oh, that's like a win because she gets a
boost to the espresso to keep her going pleasurely drink.

Speaker 1 (47:45):
I don't need We were at Hampton Social with those
seashell things. She was like chugging the seashell of espresso
martini with a straw. Yeah, it was. That's all she
asks about every time our Christmas gifts, our espresso martini
get like kids. Yeah yeah, she's oh yeah, okay, she's great.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
That's amazing. And I was watching your stories and you
were asking you were like interviewing her at one time.
You're asking her all that question.

Speaker 1 (48:08):
I need to do more of that. I actually just
bought those cards those Have you seen those ads for
those what are they called? Life story? Life Story?

Speaker 2 (48:16):

Speaker 2 (48:31):
Yeah okay. So she said the secret to life was
true love. Did she have a big romance in her life?
Is that where you get you get all your love?

Speaker 1 (48:41):
This is no listen, she is so dramatic. I her

years and years and years and years and years, and
she like cannot get over it.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
Like sorry, you remarried.

Speaker 1 (48:56):
No, like they will never get back together. They should
never come back together. They can't stand each other, but
she just can't let it go. Like she's just like
did they ever see each other? Oh? Yeah? And it
fight like cats and dogs every time they see each other.
We're like, nunny, Like what is wrong with you? You

It is, and it's like so funny but it's so sad,
but it's so like eye roll. It's like it's all
the things, like we're like, oh my god, here we

Speaker 2 (49:25):
Like so it's still as like the breakup, the divorce,
the separation is still as like vivid as it was
the day it happened. Her.

Speaker 1 (49:34):
I've tried. When I was in college, I set up
a senior whatever like old dating senior.

old fat kiss or something. And she was like, at
breakfast the first time I'm meeting you, Oh my god.
She was horrified.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
Well, you're like, in fairness, Nanny, if you saw the
way I was texting him all.

Speaker 2 (51:34):
That's amazing. Okay, how did you and Michael meet? Speaking
of romance, how did y'all meet? Was it love at
first sight?

Speaker 1 (51:38):
Yeah? It was Speaking of romance, Michael slid in the DMS.

Speaker 1 (51:43):
So? Biggest mystery to this day we.

Speaker 2 (51:46):
Do not know lid in the deep slid.

Speaker 1 (51:48):
In the DMS, and it was pretty it was a
pretty iconic DM.

Speaker 2 (51:53):
Okay, what did it say?

Speaker 1 (51:55):
So he didn't say anything. He sent me a video
of him. He was he was hunting and he was
in you know, his camo.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
You didn't know he existed. This is a random message,
just showing up.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
So random, just showing up in my inbox. And he
just sent me a video of him and he was
wearing all camo. He was deer hunting and he just
was drinking Evan Williams just out of the bottle.

Speaker 2 (52:14):
That's what he sent you. And I was like, could
that could honestly also freak you out?

Speaker 1 (52:18):
For sure? But like if you know me and I
did not freak me out. I like, hell, yeah, You're like,
who is this he know?

Speaker 2 (52:25):
Is he reading my mic? Yeah, because it could have
gone one of two ways.

Speaker 1 (52:28):
Well no, I mean so like from California. But I
was like, I need like I always.

Speaker 2 (52:33):
Did he say anything or did he just take a sip?

Speaker 1 (52:35):
And then he just like just video, just short little video.

Speaker 2 (52:38):
Now he's just gonna see if that hit.

Speaker 1 (52:41):
Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 2 (52:42):
Yeah, So what happened after that?

Speaker 1 (52:43):
So I immediately was like, yeah, like what's up? So
I texted him back and I was just like I said,
some so like cringey and thirsty, embarrassing. I was like, oh,
like save me some so bad. I wish so badly

(53:05):
that I screenshoted those like first few messages that we
had together because maybe it's for the best, but it
probably is. But yeah, I mean I was just like,
who is this, Like, country.

Speaker 2 (53:16):
Boy, were you in Nashville?

Speaker 1 (53:17):
I was, No, I was in college. I was so
I went to Ole, Miss So I was in Mississippi.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
So he oh, okay, we y'all got Oh.

Speaker 1 (53:23):
It was probably like a little bit like Mississippi like
thing that just I don't know, maybe he was somehow
popped up.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
He had his eye on some in Mississippi girls, probably
no one it compared to you, but like he was
looking for maybe Mississippi.

Speaker 1 (53:36):
Maybe yeah, for sure for sure. And I was at
home for winter break and I was just like, so, yeah,
that definitely caught my eye. We just started chit chatting
like nothing crazy, just like he was. I think he
was intrigued. He was like, I see you're from California,
Like why are you down here? And we just started
talking very casual, very casual, like nothing thing, long conversations,

(54:01):
nothing like that. I mean, I didn't he told me
he was a songwriter. I was like, what does that mean?
Like I okay, and actually funny, this is funny. I
went to lurk his instagram, as one does when someone
damn you, and he had a lot of pictures with
Tyler and BK on the road from FGL and he

(54:24):
had these like passes on which like, you know, we're
just credentials.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
But I was like, oh my god, because you were
loving FBL.

Speaker 1 (54:31):
Yeah. But I was like he's a super fan, Like
he is an FGL superfan and that's fucking weird.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
Like I always gotten so tired that now he's like
backstage Like I was like.

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Cringe, like ew, like he's a super fan like following
them around because he had like pictures with them throughout
and I was like I don't know about all this,
like like this is too. I was like, oh god,
he's so. I just didn't really say anything about that,
and we just you know, I was like the conversation, okay, okay,
I needed hold out against him.

Speaker 2 (55:00):
I need to dig into this, but we'll get there.

Speaker 1 (55:03):
Yeah, So basically we just kind of, I don't know,
just like kept chit chatting very casually, like here and there.
And then I was back at school and the Lyric
is the little music venue in town, and he had
his buddy, Jameson Rogers was playing a show with the Lyric,
and then his other buddy, Hunter Phelps, was opening up
for Jamison, and he was supposed to be out on

(55:24):
the road writing but Jamison or Hunter's drummer, got sick
and last minute asked Michael to fill in.

Speaker 2 (55:30):
Can he drum?

Speaker 1 (55:31):
So he can? But even better, this wasn't the real drums.
It was the Cahen like the box drum. So, like,
my man is up there on stage, this is the
first time I met. Yeah, so so he's coming to
play a show at your college, so it's probably like
a big deal. It was, but like, so my friends
and I were already going.

Speaker 2 (55:50):
Did they like pack out?

Speaker 1 (55:51):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah, it's fine, like all the all everyone
goes buy the tickets are like twenty bucks.

Speaker 2 (55:55):
So Ever, this could not be a more perfect time
to see how you're going to feel in person.

Speaker 1 (55:59):
Yes, And I was like so nervous, but I brought
a couple of my friends, and I was like, you
guys have to come, Like you guys, we're going to
the show, right, Like you have to come with me
because like this guy's gonna be there now. And so
we went yeah, oh my god. And I didn't even
know like he's he's like I'm gonna be in the band.
And I just see him up there, like sitting on
this little.

Speaker 2 (56:15):
Box, liked did that feel the vibes up or down?

Speaker 1 (56:20):
Honestly, I was having the time of my life. Like
I was laughing my ass off like at him with him,
just like what is happening right now? And we wiggled
our way to the front and we were like Michael
like trying to get his attention. And he swears to
this day that he never saw us. We were like, hey,
you really, Like, hey, I'm like to be taller than
everyone in this crowd. I'm like never saw me. Yeah.

(56:42):
So and he was like okay, like after the show,
like let's find up with spot to me and we'll
just meet in there. And I was like okay, yeah. Yeah.
So they finish the set and we go meet up
up at the balcony meet up and we're just like hi,
and I saw him coming from a distance, and I
just like chug my drink and I was.

Speaker 2 (57:00):
Like, oh my god, like are you excited? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (57:03):
No, I was really excited.

Speaker 2 (57:04):
So the actual like laying the eyes on each other
was like good because do you know when you talk
to one online though a lot times you never know
I's going to translate into the human form for sure.

Speaker 1 (57:12):
But I was like what, like who cares? Like why
I had to lose? Like okay? And I was with
my friend and my friend ran up to him first
and she was like you're Callie's are you Cally's friend?
And he was like yeah, yeah, and so I was
like hi, and we hugged and it was and his
first thought was She's like damn, this girl's tall, like
my god, and he said my voice was like deeper
than he thought it would be. I was like, great,

(57:34):
off to a good start. I'm Shrek like fabulous, thank
you appreciated. Like that is so him too, if you
know him, like he will be trying to give a
compliment and then it's like it just doesn't. I'm like, oh,
you were all close, like oh my god, like you

(57:56):
should hear it. Like when he tries to compliment my
like award show dresses. Like he just says the most
weird shit, and I'm like, give me an example, like
I wore I wore this one dress with like this
big structured like silver ruffle on it, and he was like,
you look like silver bacon, like a big silver bacon,
and I was like, yeah, like yes, So that just

(58:20):
like sums it all perfectly. Does he love bacon though,
So that's great. I mean, yeah, like you want to
like silver. So that was like that is like week.
The silver bacon dress is the silver bacon dress. You
guys can go find it, Like there's a picture of
it and you will, honestly, looking at it, it does
look like a giant piece of like ruffled little bacon.
But that is a perfect example. So she showed me

(58:41):
exactly who he was from day one.

Speaker 2 (58:43):
Honestly, we got hit it off right away.

Speaker 1 (58:52):
We truly hit it off right away, Like there was
zero awkwardness. We were just so comfortable. We had the
best time. We were just joking with each other, had
a really really fun time, and like he was very
different than anyone I'd ever dated, which really like kind
of intrigued me and he normally I would go for

(59:15):
people who like matched my sorry my allergies, I'm like, oh,
matched my energy and like matched my personality. But he
kind of like counteracted that. And it was very He
was very like calm, cool, collected, very confident, a man
of few words, but like when he spoke, it was
very meaningful and like we just like there was a

(59:39):
little bit of silence, but there was no awkwardness between
the pauses, if that makes sense. So we had really
good conversation. It never felt forced. It never felt like
we had to be overly like laughy and talkative and
like be super like how I would normally be. So
it was just immediate comfort.

Speaker 2 (59:59):
Is it calming for you?

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
Calming?

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
Yeah, because you can be the WU girl all happy
and in your in your energy field, but like you
need to come down probably some time, and he's probably
a great home base.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
That's exactly Yes, that's exactly what it felt like. Like
it felt like, oh, that's maybe not what I thought
I wanted, but that's what I needed. Like that, So
when we met, it was like we were literally like
a little puzzle pieces that were just like and it Yeah,
it worked out, and truly ever since then, we just
stayed in touch. We had such a nice night. We

(01:00:29):
had a long night. You don't make out, okay, so
we didn't make out. We had and I give him
so much shit to this day for this kiss. Like
we had the most like elementary school like kiss, like
peck like it.

Speaker 2 (01:00:44):
Oh my god, it was just so ming hanging out.

Speaker 1 (01:00:48):
The night is coming to an end. I took him
and his friend's to huddle house.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
Are we starting to feel the awkward vibes like the
kiss is coming?

Speaker 1 (01:00:55):
Honestly, it didn't even feel like didn't even feel awkward.
Like I was like, this is just so.

Speaker 2 (01:01:00):
Smooth, you know, like in the night, did you start
feeling the pressure of the kiss?

Speaker 1 (01:01:03):
Well, So I drove his I drove his friends and
Michael in my car and I dropped them off at
the hotel. So like they got out of the car,
but like Michael stayed in the car and I was like,
oh yeah, oh god, oh god, those one would send
me like into you know, like we were like so
so he was just sitting there and then in my mind,
the way I remember it is that I was like

(01:01:24):
leaning over the center concert like you were not. Like
he was like, let's be for real. So he remembers
it very different differently than I do. But I thought
I was like breaking my back leaning over the the
signal like yeah, yeah, yeah available, and so it is on. Yeah.
So we just he gave me the most like gentle,
sweet little like yeah, like little like kiss and we

(01:01:45):
were like, oh my god. So but it was really cute.
But I was just like okay, like all right whatever,
and he was like, I don't know, I don't want
to like freak you out like I tried a mound down.

Speaker 2 (01:01:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:56):
So we so he left his wallet at my house though.

Speaker 2 (01:01:59):
At your house, Yeah, how did you get to your house?

Speaker 1 (01:02:01):
Oh? So we went up to my apartment with my friends,
like we all hung out after and he left his
wallet there, which he's still to this day says was
an accident, but I'm like maybe subconsciously not because so
he came back the next morning and they swung by
my apartment and like he just said an extra little goodbye.
And I was twenty years old at the time, which

(01:02:23):
is so crazy because my youngest sister is twenty and
I'm like, oh my god, that would be like you
meeting How old was he? He was twenty six? Okay,
So he's like six and a half years older than me.
So we met and I was like, Okay, I'm coming
up to Nashville for my twenty first bird day.

Speaker 2 (01:02:41):
I kiss you again. When he came back for his wallet.

Speaker 1 (01:02:43):
No, because like his friends were all in the car
and we were all like okay, okay, so it was
like here's your wallet, Okay. Cool.

Speaker 2 (01:02:47):
Yeah, it was like a great weekend, but it was
just kind of still a lot of good energy left
to pu.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
It was great, like we had so so many butterflies,
like we knew we wanted to see each other again,
like no doubt about it and no questions asked. So
I was like, I'm coming to Nashville for my twenty
first birthday with all my girlfriends. And he was like okay,
like you got to come up, like let me know
when you're here. And I was like okay, but you know, guys,
like I was like, all right, we'll see him once
and he'll come out to the club with us or something,

(01:03:12):
and then we'll never see him. I don't know. So
we he's calling me like leading up to it, he's like,
where are you guys gonna stay? Like he's really worried
about like, where we're gonna stay, what we're gonna do.
He wants us to have so much fun on this trip,
which I thought was so cute. He cared so much
and we came up and he rolled out the red
carpet for us. He was such a little host of
the weekend, which I thought was so cute.

Speaker 2 (01:03:33):
The whole time.

Speaker 1 (01:03:34):
He hung out with us the whole time, and he
so our first night, he was playing around at the
Bluebird fun and I'd never seen him saying, I you know,
like I didn't know. I knew the Bluebird because I
watched Nashville the show, and I was like, oh my god,
that's so cool. I was freaking out. And he had
two extra tickets, but he was like, I'm really sorry,
I only have these two tickets. And I literally grab

(01:03:55):
one of my friends and I was like, guys, like,
thank you for all being here for my birthday, but
I'm ditching you all for two hours. I will see
you all in like like a little bit.

Speaker 2 (01:04:05):
And this is my chosen friends. So if you're wondering
who was my favorite, it's her.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
No so actually funny enough, I was like, who would
appreciate this?

Speaker 2 (01:04:12):
Okay?

Speaker 1 (01:04:12):
I was like this is a cool, intimate like music thing.
And I was like, okay, Nicole, you're coming with me.
So we went and we went to the Bluebird, sat
next to his entire family didn't know, didn't know Big Mike,
Michael's dad pulls out my chair. We literally are sitting
and you know, the Bluebird is like whoop, everyone is
back to back. Mike pulls out my chair for me,

(01:04:34):
and which, by the way, I was so embarrassed because
in the height of my partying and I'm on Broadway
for my twenty first birthday, I look like a hooker.

Speaker 2 (01:04:42):
I do you have anything on?

Speaker 1 (01:04:43):
I was wearing a bandage dress, like a short bandaged
dress with giant heels and a little like leather jacket
like I was thought. I was looking so good. And
then I took one step into the Bluebird and immediately
was like, oh, this is not Broadway.

Speaker 2 (01:04:57):
It's not Broadway.

Speaker 1 (01:04:58):
So I walked in and his parents were probably like
oh okay, and Michael was like, whoa, what's up? So
I walk in looking seriously like a hooker and I
go sit down and we watched his writers around the
most beautiful thing. I cried, My friend cried. He was
so incredible, which goes back to I was like, thank god,
Like what if he sucked and it was awkward? So

(01:05:20):
that worked out really well.

Speaker 2 (01:05:22):
Yeah, thank god.

Speaker 1 (01:05:22):
And he hung out with us the whole rest of
the night. He got brunch with us the next day,
he like sent us off.

Speaker 2 (01:05:27):
He is with him and all the girls. Yeah, so
he was He was not scared to be with the
whole bunch of girls.

Speaker 1 (01:05:32):
He really was not. And that was all the more.
I mean, it just like it reconfirmed for me. I
was like, he's so confident and just comfortable with himself
and he wants to hang out.

Speaker 2 (01:05:44):
And I was like, and it showed how much he
wanted to be with you and it showed so he
was not like trying to be too cool. Yeah, he
was just trying to be there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:50):
Yeah, which I've always like in my dating life. I
always I never like reached for anything. I was like,
if they want to, they will show and they will
show it and you will always know, like just take
good for you, but they show you, Like just take
that at face value?

Speaker 2 (01:06:06):
How did you learn that?

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
I I mean, I can't just my upbringing. Yeah, my
parents we were always we were raised to be very
confident and have a lot of you know, self worth
and value. And so it's like if someone like being
you know, it starts early when you're young, Like if
someone doesn't want to be your friend, why do you
want to be their friend? Like if you don't get
invited somewhere, you don't want to be there, Like it's
just you know, it's all kind of the same umbrella.

(01:06:31):
So I have been like that throughout every aspect of
my life. So when it came to dating, I was
just like, I'm not searching for anything, so if it comes,
then it works out, like that's awesome. So that to
me was like it was very comfortable. It just flowed
and he really put in the work to make it happen.
And so then shortly after that, I invited him to

(01:06:52):
my sorority formal and he asked me to be his
girlfriend on the bus ride there, and that was it,
and then we dated ever since. Yep, ever since.

Speaker 2 (01:07:01):
Okay, we have to drive up, sure already it a
minute and an hour and ten minutes in but really fast.
So was he scared to date you with your dad
being a Navy seal? And did your dad like him?

Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Oh? My god, my dad he loves Michael. He loves
Michael like it's like my pressure and the sun I
never had like.

Speaker 2 (01:07:15):
He right, Oh my god, what I mean, did Michael
full pressure? No, honestly, well maybe maybe still, Dad's a
big deal. Maybe on the way there, but the second
and like if you met my dad, you would understand
the second you meet him, he is just the most
like lovable, like there is nothing scary about him again
unless he wants you to be scared of him. But no,
I mean Michael, they hit it off right away, Yeah,

(01:07:37):
they did, and my dad is just like, finally someone
I can do like manly man things with and be
a boy like.

Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
You know, all the things.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
So that's amazing.

Speaker 1 (01:07:44):
They're so cute together.

Speaker 2 (01:07:45):
And you hit it off with his family? Did you
hit off with his family?

Speaker 1 (01:07:47):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:07:48):
So y'all are like family and from the start.

Speaker 1 (01:07:50):
Yeah, and his family all lives here, so we're very
lucky we're close to them. And yeah, they're awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:07:55):
Kelly, I feel like you have just lived a really beautiful,
happy life. I'm sure there's some stuff in the middle
that was hard, but like I feel like you are
someone who just comes back to the happy, comes back
to the excitement WU Girl Dedicated with Girl is like
so fitting because I'm like, you were finding the joy,
You're finding the fun, you're finding the good time, you're
finding the memories. You're making memories, you're throwing parties, You're

(01:08:18):
in situations that are bringing joy to yourself and others.
I just feel like you have such a good grasp
on how to enjoy this life.

Speaker 1 (01:08:24):
That makes me so happy. I mean, really, that's all
I ever try to do, because what's the point if
you're not having fun and you're not enjoying yourself. Anytime
I ever get really down about or overwhelmed or burnt
out like in life right now, Like I recently just
I was like I had to pause and I was like, I,
this is fun and this is cool, and I don't

(01:08:45):
want to look back and not think that I had
fun in this very unique opportunity in life. So it's
like I always do try to bring it back to that,
but yeah, sometimes it's you know, it's a lot i'ms
and flows, but yeah, I think if you can just
like lead life with that mindset of just enjoying life
to the fullest, like it'll always work out for you.

Speaker 2 (01:09:04):
I love it. Okay, So I always wrap up with
leave your Light, which is kind of what you're talking about,
but basically it's just some inspiration. What kind of inspiration
do you want to.

Speaker 1 (01:09:11):
Drop on people?

Speaker 2 (01:09:12):
What do you want people to know?

Speaker 1 (01:09:13):
Okay? I thought about this on the way here, because,
like I told you, I'm a fan of the podcast,
So I was like, light, and what do I say?
So my mom, I'm gonna share this little saying that
my mom has always always told us, and we used
to make fun of her for it and like roll
our eyes, but she's always told us it's all about
the experiences in life, and it is so true because

(01:09:35):
you need to get out there. You never know. You
will learn so much about yourself. The more things you try,
you will grow the more you put yourself in uncomfortable
situations that you've never experienced before. If you get out there,
try new things, travel, you will have fun, You will
find new ways to enjoy life. You will find new
ways to love people and appreciate people, and it will

(01:09:57):
just give you a very well rounded view of the
wor world and yourself and others. And I think it
will just overall enrich your life. So always try to
put yourself out there. Always experience as many things as
you can. And yeah, I love this.

Speaker 2 (01:10:12):
