Work in Progress: Maren Morris

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Fresh off her performance at the DNC, Maren Morris — singer-songwriter, activist, and mom — is in a new chapter of her life. She’s doing things her way, and is not afraid to use her voice to stand up for what's right.

The Grammy-winning artist talks to Sophia about her emotional journey, from the highs of her recent DNC performance to the lows of coping with postpartum depression, being a different person now than she was five years ago, standing by everything she has said when she’s stood up for people in the past, and why she decided to come out as bisexual when she did.

Plus, Maren opens up about using her art to navigate through the pain of divorce, finding the courage to hit the reset button on her life, and exploring personal change in her new EP, Intermission, which is available now.
