Laine is a sweetheart. Hearing his story of how he won American Idol was so refreshing. Growing up, he would ride his 4-wheeler into the woods and practice singing, where no one could hear him.

Luke Bryan picked him as the winner the first time he heard him sing. Laine is a country boy and sings abo...

Neither one of our teams ended up winning, but we have a bond and stories for life (we share some great ones this episode). I’ve gotten to ...

I believe that we all are a force field from God and have so much to offer this world, including the ability heal ourselves and others. We just have to uncover the truth. Meg dives in SO...

She said “ I’m OBSESSED w the walk from the garage to the kitchen island, bc a woman does that countless times in a day. By the time she gets to the island I want her to be hands free.” Woah. Mind blown. How does one even know how to think that thought? But that’s Lori. Not only is her style and design classic yet bold, traditional yet wild and modern leaving you brea...
