12:00pm CT: This week on We Should Write, Lindsay is sitting down with another  of  her dearest friends and favorite firecrackers in the Nashville scene: Tera Lynne Fister—the motorcycle-riding, guitar-slinging redhead you’ve seen lighting up stages across the country. You can find her at @iamfister and TeraLynne.com. Tera is one of those rare artists who lives music—sometimes to the detriment of everything else, and absolutely to the benefit of her art.  One of the most inspiring things about her is her relentless devotion to craft: writing through the loss of a parent, carving out her place as a fiercely independent woman in this business, and showing up for her community with the same passion she brings to every stage. If you want to understand what it really takes—and what it really costs—to build a life in music, this conversation is for you.

12:00pm CT: On this week’s episode of We Should Write, Lindsay sits down with Colin Stough—American Idol Season 21 finalist, Mississippi native, and one of country music’s most compelling young storytellers. With over 80 million global streams, 31+ million YouTube views, and a rapidly growing fanbase of 800k+ across social platforms, Colin has built his career by writing straight from lived experience—faith, pain, resilience, and all. Signed to 19 Recordings / BMG Nashville, his songs don’t shy away from the hard stuff, and neither does he. In this conversation, Lindsay explores how writing became both his creative outlet and emotional release, and how putting truth on the page can be a form of healing—for the writer and the listener alike. It’s a reminder that sometimes the songs that reach the most people start as a way to survive.
