This episode is such a fun one! I sat down with my sweet friend Marissa Gilliland, wife to NASCAR driver Todd Gilliland, and we had the best heart-to-heart about life lately—from big moves to little routines and everything in between.
Marissa opened up about their recent move (hello, new house dreams!) and what it's really like supporting Todd through all the twists and turns of racing season. We talked about the highs, the lows, and how they make it all work—especially when life on the road gets hectic.
She also shared her love for Pure Barre (fellow fitness girlies, you'll love this part), what keeps her grounded outside of racing, and how she and Todd stay connected through it all. From favorite travel spots to guilty pleasure TV shows to who really wins at golf (spoiler: it’s complicated 😂), this conversation was full of laughs, honesty, and those sweet reminders that every couple has their own rhythm.
Whether you’re part of the NASCAR world or just love a good behind-the-scenes peek into real life and relationships, this one’s for you. 🫶
Here’s what we cover:
- 🏡 New house, new routines, and making a space feel like home
- 💕 How she and Todd met + their love story
- ✈️ Life on the road, favorite tracks, and travel memories
- 💪 Finding personal passions outside of racing (shoutout Pure Barre!)
- 🐾 Pets, pillow talk, and nighttime quirks
- 🤍 The beauty and challenge of supporting someone through a wild career
