THE ONE THING I TRY TO DO DAILY IS…
Exercise. Lifting weights, cardio, and running.
THE BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN IS…
“Life Is Beautiful.” It reminds me of my aunt, who passed away from cancer. That was her favorite movie. Before she passed away, I remember watching it with her.
MY MORNING ROUTINE IS…
I’m not a morning person. I roll out of bed, brush my hair, brush my teeth, grab a protein drink, and I’m off to work.
I AVOID DISTRACTIONS BY…
Purposely leaving my phone out of reach. Or I’ll put it on silent. I just don’t want to be connected with my phone so much.
I OVERCOME ADVERSITY BY…
Praying.
THE MOST IMPORTANT LIFE LESSON I HAVE LEARNED IS…
Always try to have a positive attitude.
MY NUMBER ONE SMARTPHONE APP IS…
Instagram. I used to post years ago, but I’m not a poster anymore. It’s my Facebook. I just flip through and look at what people are up to.
WHEN I RELAX, I LIKE TO…
Be with my boyfriend Josh.
I AM MOST AT PEACE WHEN…
I’m relaxing.
MY SOURCE OF INSPIRATION IS…
My father (Dee Taylor). He always has the right answers. He’s always got good advice. Calm, patient, loving. Whenever I need something, he’s always very helpful.
I NEVER LEAVE THE HOUSE WITHOUT…
My phone.
A PODCAST I RECOMMEND IS…
Anything crime and “Sword and Scale.” Every episode is about a true crime story. I just love crime.
SOMETHING EVERYONE SHOULD TRY AT LEAST ONCE IS…
Running With the Bulls.
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I WANTED TO BE A…
Veterinarian. I love animals. I want a dog so bad, but I don’t live in a place where I can have a dog. When I have my own place with a yard, I’ll be getting a Golden Retriever.
A GO-TO BAND OR MUSICAL ARTIST ON MY PLAYLIST IS…
Chris Stapleton. I love Chris Stapleton, and I love country! He’s one of the best concerts I’ve ever been to. He sounds amazing, live. He’s good; very talented.
MY “SUPERPOWER” IS…
Sleeping. I get six or seven hours a night. If I’m really tired, I could sleep for like twelve hours.
