Summary

In Sadie’s first live-audience episode, she sits down with country star Thomas Rhett Akins and his wife, Lauren Akins, to talk about it all: how they met, how they’ve handled fame, when their faith became the main thing, and how they’ve learned to say “yes” and “no” with intention and peace. Lauren admits she was dragged —kicking and screaming — into the public side of their life, but now calls it a beautiful adventure, saying she’s living every dream she had as a little girl. Thomas Rhett opens up about work-life balance, the tough calls he’s had to make, and why it’s all been worth it. He also gets real about learning to love his wife and kids well — and why he can’t be the source of their happiness. Only God can.

And I have been gatekeeping this for a long time. So I don't know if you know how reality TV works, but you film it a little bit in advance. And so when we filmed this episode, I was pregnant with Kit and on this day, it was actually, we were back in the green room when Lauren told me that she was pregnant. They didn't know what they were having at the time, but now we know he's a little boy named Brave,
