The show starts with Whitney talking being from a small town of 900 people in Tennessee called Scotts Hill. She talks about how her Grandfather was the one who introduced her to music and starting to sing at age 3. At age 12-13 she was offered a record deal that led to her connection today that helped pave the way for her music career.

Performing at Tootsie’s in downtown Nashville and collaborating with Kenny Rogers on his single “My World Over” that is on his 42 Ultimate Hits LP. How she got on Nashville Star that led to a deal with Warner Brothers. We talk about the singles “Skinny Dippin” & “When I Said I Would” off her Right Road Now LP in 2010 that also included “So Sorry Mama” that was a single in the movie Footloose.

Learn how she was casted for Survivor South Pacific, how much down time they have, her weight loss, recovery time, and being on Ponderosa. Whitney and her husband were on the 25th season on Amazing Race as she talks about the experience.

I bring up her EP One Shot that has been forgotten, the story behind the song “Homesick” and the band she was in called Post Monroe Band that toured with Martina McBride. We then talk about her new music “Lightweight” and “All She Wants”.

 The challenges for Whitney in the music business, how to connect with her and what is on her playlist these days.
