Rising country music artist Morgan Wade may seem like an overnight success, but it took a lot of hustle and hard work to get to where she is now.

The singer-songwriter chats with Sophia about being young and hungry to make it, and putting everything she had into kick-starting her career from booking her own shows, creating her own merch, and even building her own website! She reveals why her collaboration with Kesha felt like a full circle moment, and what it’s been like to tour with legends Alanis Morissette and Joan Jett. Plus, she shares that despite her busy schedule, she's already written her next record!

Morgan gets candid about the gauntlet of media exposure — from good to bad — and how she felt reading some of the more sensational headlines about herself. She also courageously shares about her personal road to sobriety, and opens up about her double mastectomy. Conversation topics that she hopes help others too.

From a housewife in the 1960s to the first woman to serve as Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi is an inspiration. She is also one of the most influential women in American politics, whose desire to make a difference led her into public service and into our history books. For decades she has used her voice to champion human rights, full equality, affordable health care, and the environment.

Speaker Emerita Pelosi joins Sophia to talk about her journey into politics, how motherhood played a key role in her career, being proud of her battle wounds — or as she calls them, "badges of honor” — and her hopes for future policy change. She also shares her advice for women who want to run for office.

Together, Speaker Pelosi and Sophia rehash the DNC, and then Nancy reveals her work in progress, and the reason she wrote her new memoir, "The Art of Power: My Story as America's First Woman Speaker of the House" out now.
