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.

Laney Crowder is the wife to Corey Crowder, who is one of Country Music’s top Songwriters and producers (Chris Young, Florida Georgia Line), and super mom to two wonderful kids. While tackling all the things life has to offer, she shares her family’s journey in the music industry from being broker then broke, returning groceries for gas money, to #1 songs on the charts. 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. Learn mo

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 sup

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 find

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.

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.

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 ha
