What if the person you became after tragedy is exactly who you were meant to be?

Can you rebuild a friendship after the world watched it fall apart?

Tyler Hubbard built one of the biggest acts in country music history with Florida Georgia Line: breaking records, selling out stadiums, and changing the genre forever. But before the charts and the spotlight, he was a kid from small-town Georgia washing cars to make ends meet, learning work ethic from a father who collected people the way most collect things, and finding solace in music during the hardest moment of his life.

In this raw conversation, Tyler opens up about losing his father, Roy Hubbard, at 20 in a tragic accident, and the real story behind Florida Georgia Line's breakup. A story that is not the political narrative the internet created, but the human one about boundaries, business decisions, and two friends navigating an impossible season during a pandemic. Tyler also shares stories about why he played the inauguration, how he met his wife, Haley, and knew she was the one, and why he's finally ready to let people see the man behind the brand.

This is a conversation about second chances, choosing faith over fear, and why sometimes the hardest thing to do is simply tell the truth.

In this conversation, you'll learn:

• How to Turn Tragedy Into Faith Instead of Bitterness
• How Your Childhood Work Ethic Shapes Your Adult Success
• How to Navigate Partnership Breakups Without Destroying the Relationship
