You know Nicole Ryan from SiriusXM Hits 1, where she co-hosts The Morning Mash Up with Ryan Sampson and Stanley T Evans. You may have also heard her podcast, Have Kids, They Said, where she and co-host Rich Davis get personal and laugh about the realities of parenting, or seen her hosting a red carpet or appearing on shows like Good Morning America.
Nicole never pictured a career in front of a microphone — she took a job as a receptionist in the early days of Sirius Satellite Radio, made the most of every opportunity, and soon, found herself on the radio. Over the years, between her signature What’s Trending segments and interviews with top artists like Taylor Swift and Katy Perry, huge moments in Nicole’s own life have played out on the air, like getting engaged to husband Matt Ryan and going into labor with her second child.
Most recently, Nicole was bolstered by the support from her “Mash Up family” after she was hit by a car while riding her scooter in New York City. When she returned to the radio earlier this week after 15 days in the hospital, she said messages of encouragement from listeners gave her the strength she needed.
“I really do believe that is what got me out of the hospital so quickly,” she said on The Morning Mash Up.
We're glad to share that Nicole is back at home with her loved ones, and she's expected to make a full recovery.
For this episode of Make Yourself at Home, which was recorded before the accident, we're in Nicole's apartment in NYC, talking about the ups and downs of bringing millions of listeners into your personal life, and what she’s learned from Ed Sheeran about focusing on what’s most important. Make Yourself at Home with Nicole Ryan.
