Okay, welcome back to the Nikki and Bree Show.

And yes, we are still here in Nashville, Tennessee at the Sirius XM Studios that we want to make our own studios because this has been so much fun.

We've just been in heaven.

I'm just like trying my best out here, you know. But you know what? I feel like you're doing it in such a great way. You really are. Thank you. How is it like living out here and, you know, with the music world and. Yeah, it's so hard, but it's good. It's like the grind because so many people are doing the same

thing or like a hybrid of what you're doing. And so I'm not like a competitive person. I'm like,

I'm very much like we all have the same dream. We all the same goal. Yeah. Yep. Everyone can have

success. Yeah. And everyone's success might look different. But it's just like, I don't know, I just feel like since we all have the same dream, don't tear each other down. That's kind of like how I am. I like that. But it is, not everyone is not way. No. How does like a week look like for you? Every week is different. I mean, I could have, like, I had an interview yesterday and

a photo shoot yesterday and then interviewed today and then I have like a bunch of online stuff today.

Like I have to onboard someone on my team and so that's going to be like on my computer. So

in the next week I'm traveling and I have a photo shoot for my upcoming song. So it's like it always looks different, which is like something I love. Like I love. It's not so predictable. Yeah, like the same thing every single day would drive me insane. Me too. For sure. Like it really would. Yeah. We're not meant for meant for that you know we're all artists in different

ways right and our soul just seeks something yeah yeah you know that's what makes us

creative and fight for the things we want to find for so growing up when did you realize like

singing forever i think my mom was a vocal major in college but she had horrible stage right so
