EP08: TRISTAN PRETTYMAN

This week I’m speaking with Tristan Prettyman. As a songwriter, she has had plenty to say about love over the course of her career. From the pain of an engagement ended, to young love lost, Tristan has suffered her fair share of heartache, and at times very publicly. Her ability to channel those experiences into song, set Tristan on an unconventional career path that led to a major record label debut shortly after finishing high school.

Her personal mantra of just saying ‘yes’ and choosing the road less traveled, created opportunities that only re-enforced the strength of her own internal intuition, and combined with a work ethic inherited from her father, set the stage for much of her success, including what she calls her most important to date, motherhood.

A proponent of self work and therapy, Tristan offers her experience navigating the end of a marriage, learning to co-parent, and her ever evolving definition of love. Whether you’re single, married, or someplace in-between, Tristan’s story is proof in the power of vulnerability to lead us to places we may never have imagined for ourselves, but are often times, exactly where we belong. As she shares, life may play out different than we expect, but by remaining open to possibility and allowing our egos to take a back seat, different can actually mean, better.
