This week on Girls In Low Places, we are late night calling one of our absolute faves... Carly Pearce.

From breaking the internet at the Royal Albert Hall with Luke Combs, to writing one of her most emotionally brutal songs (Dream Come True), Carly opens up like never before about the reality behind the dream.

We talk about:

• The loneliness that can come with success

• Missing friends’ weddings and choosing career first

• Filling your house with awards but not with people

• Meeting the love of your life later than you expected

• Why no one’s life is as perfect as it looks on Instagram

• Dolly Parton sleeping in her makeup (yes, really)

Carly also gets brutally honest about hitting a creative and emotional slump, feeling left behind by “normal life”, and how Dream Come True came from a moment of total vulnerability.

This is a conversation about ambition, womanhood, choosing a different path, and learning that there is no deadline on love, happiness, or getting your life “right”.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything you dreamed of and still feeling a bit empty sometimes… this one’s for you.
