That Nashville Girl
“Are you that Nashville girl with the podcast?”
Yep — that’s me.
I’m the girl you see around town with the (patent-pending) bob. The one who can’t stop talking about the artist I just discovered or the songwriter I caught at a writer’s round that somehow changed my life a little. I pick my favorite athletes based on their charities and personalities — not just what they do on the field. And when I go out, I notice everything… the service, the drinks, the lighting, the energy, who’s sitting where and why.
Basically, I’m your unofficial Nashville bestie.
The one who tells you who to listen to before they blow up.
Who you should be paying attention to (and why).
And what actually lives up to the hype in a city that has a lot of it.
And each week, I sit down with someone in this city you might already know — or absolutely should — and we get into the stories, the moments, and the behind-the-scenes stuff that makes you feel like you’re a little more in it than everyone else.
It’s fun, it’s real, it’s a little unfiltered… and it’s the Nashville I love so much!

The bob is bobbing… and yes—this is where I get it done. ✂️✨
This week on The Nashville Insider, I’m sitting down with Eric Marshall Wright, Nashville native and owner of Eric Marshall Salon.
I’ve been going to this salon for years—long before Eric took it over from my friend Mandy (who I’ve known since I moved to Nashville in 2006). It’s always been one of those places… and now it’s his. Same people, same feel, just his eye for it.
If you’ve ever asked me about my hair, this is where it happens.
We get into:
- why Eric always knew he’d end up in hair -- and how fashion played a role early on
- what it takes to build and run a go-to salon in Nashville right now
- why “Southern blonde” is actually a thing -- and why Nashville does it better
- the kind of clients, conversations, and energy that make this industry what it is
- trusting your instincts, taking risks, and building something people keep coming back to
Eric has built something really special here -- and once you see it, you’ll understand why people book their next appointment before they even leave.
