**ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON 03/18/20** Meghan Trainor is a Grammy-winning pop singer known for  hits like "Lips Are Moving" and "All About That Bass." Today, she opens up like never before talking, VMA’s and why she’s never been, being a boss & learning how to fire people, how the award shows can be rigged and how her husband, Daryl Sabara supports her through it all. She spent her childhood surrounding herself with music, learning to play various instruments and writing her own songs. As her career began to blossom she began writing music for other artists like Fifth Harmony, Jennifer Lopez, Rascal Flats and Jason Derulo. There are so many special things about Meghan, but I have a deep respect for the way she has built such a massive platform and stayed healthy while spreading so much love and positivity even in such a demanding industry, and the relationship she has with her family is so amazing.

Making a decision for yourself, even when everyone is telling you not to, is not an easy task...especially when from the outside it looks like you’re at the height of your career. Today’s guest chose to be bold and listen to her instincts and that’s something we can all learn from. Cathy Kelly is a Mensa International–certified journalist, podcaster and red carpet interviewer. Cathy gained notice among the WWE Universe as a host of AfterBuzz’s weekly recap programs for Monday Night Raw and WWE NXT. She officially joined the WWE as a host in 2016, but just this month has made the decision to make some changes.
