Hey y'all, welcome to the Dagelbyte's podcast. I'm your host Lauren Dagel.

I'm a singer that hails from the deep swamps of Louisiana.

I've entered my way up to Nashville to take the risk of jumping in on the pipe dream,

of singing on stages other than the ones I grew up seeing.

Along this journey I wrote a song called You Say, and what came next absolutely changed my life.

I found myself in tour buses, singing on stages all over the world.

And every single night I would get asked the question, what would Lauren Dagel be doing if she hadn't pursued music?

Well, this season of Dagelbyte's is answering just that, and I'm bringing you along with me on this adventure.

I'm inviting new friends that I've just met and old friends that I've known for a long time

to come and explore what it is like to pursue their passions.

I know that they've inspired me and I'm sure that they will probably do the exact same thing for you.

So my absolute hope is that as you're sitting and you're listening, you then too can be inspired.

You then too can ask the question, what is it that I would love to do with my life?

And maybe along the way you'll find steps to making that happen.

So pull up a seat. Join us in the conversation. You have a place here.

This is the Dagelbyte's podcast on Amazon Music.

Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Dagelbyte's podcast.

I'm Lauren Dagel, your host, and I am very excited to tell you a little bit about my next guest.

I met this dear friend of mine in 2015 on the Chris Tomlin Christmas tour.

I was singing the song Noelle each night.

And I remember Chris said, Hey, Lauren, I want you to meet my dear friend Blank Blank, no spoiler alerts allowed.
