Want A Cowboy has been out 3 days & y’all have shown it so much love!! I always get a little nervous putting out new music. Will people like it? Will it get put on playlists? Do I have enough content to promote it? If I promote it too much, will people get annoyed by it?

At the end of the day, I’m a songwriter through and through. When I remember that, it’s so easy to be proud of what the little one line idea that popped into my head one night before a co-write has turned into. (Bonus point that y’all love it so much though!! ❤️)

Found this gem from the day we tracked it. (late 2023 according to the blonde hair). @jetjurgensmeyer & I get so hype over each other’s songs you’d think they’re all going platinum. 🤪

I’m a week in to being 29. I thought walking into the last year of my twenties would sound like a funeral march, but all I can hear is a trumpet call & the starting gate breaking wide open. I’ve launched into 29 neck and neck with at least a dozen versions of myself that I’ve spent the past year learning to love. This is the homestretch of my twenties, but it’s really no race when most days feel like I’m already in the winners circle.

thanks to everyone who has shown me so much love, I love y’all right back ❤️

Am I about to overshare on the internet again? Yep. But if it makes one person feel less alone, it’s worth it.

Let me set the scene: March 2022. My grandfather had just passed away. I was marching laps around my apartment complex parking lot listening to Mel Robbins, trying to ignore the fact that my entire world was falling apart. That became my life for months—working insane hours, saying yes to every gig because sitting still was my worst enemy.

I bought a house almost an hour away from my friends, thinking, “Feeling like a grown-up will make me happy!” (Spoiler: it didn’t.) I stood on stages every week singing songs about family when the family I wrote those songs about was long gone. People said I looked the best I ever had, but the truth? I was starving. Days would pass where I couldn’t get out of bed. I kept up the “I’m the best I’ve ever been!!” facade until I couldn’t anymore.

I hid away. Lonely. Isolated. Gained 70 lbs. Blamed my thyroid. Went to doctor after doctor and learned that mental health goes hand in hand with physical health. Then last summer, I found myself in a therapist’s waiting room. I was so tired of fighting myself every day that I finally said yes.

This month marks one full year of therapy—and antidepressants, literal miracle drugs. I’ve learned to hold space for grief instead of suffocating under it. To accept that I’m the villain in some stories for choosing happiness. It’s a journey, and every day is different. Some days I can’t handle responding to a simple text, and others I’m painting my kitchen a happy color. There are good days and crippling days. The difference now? I’ve accepted that.

Figuring all of this out while maintaining a very public career has been a challenge, but lately I’ve been asking myself, “Why hide it?” So here I am—messy, honest, and healing. (And probably writing a song about it right now lol). Thank you to the ones who stayed. And in a strange way, thank you to those who didn’t.

If you’re on this road too, you’re not alone. Follow along and we’ll do it together. ❤️
