- In this episode of Unlocked, Savannah sits down with Shelby Houston Brown for a conversation that is heartbreaking, powerful, and ultimately filled with hope. Shelby lost her dad, Officer Richard Houston, in the line of duty when she was just 18 years old. At his funeral, she made the decision to publicly forgive the man who killed him, a moment that would go on to impact millions of people.
Shelby opens up about the night she found out her dad was gone, the faith he passed down to her, and what it actually looked like to choose forgiveness in the middle of unimaginable grief. She talks honestly about the days when she questioned whether that forgiveness was worth it, the daily decision it has become, and why forgiveness isn't about pretending something didn't happen or waiting for an apology.
Savannah and Shelby also talk about the prison ministry that grew out of her story, her experiences meeting incarcerated men and women, and the incredible moments that have reminded her why she feels called to this work. Shelby shares one especially unforgettable story from a women's prison involving a woman who spoke a powerful word over her future daughter.
She also opens up about motherhood, marriage, writing her upcoming book, and the journey of finding joy again after losing her dad. This is a conversation about grief, faith, forgiveness, and finding purpose in the middle of pain.

From realizing that women’s empowerment doesn’t mean getting a free pass, to choosing her peace over constantly defending herself, Savannah opens up about the ways she’s had to grow, reflect, and rethink some of the things she once believed.
Savannah talks about loving people from a distance, forgiving people who never asked for forgiveness, and the difference between healthy distance and holding onto resentment. She also takes a hard look at the way we use the word “boundaries,” why she thinks they’ve been weaponized, and how learning to see them as limits has changed her perspective on relationships.
She gets especially honest about friendships that don’t survive every season of life, perfectionism, and the pressure she’s put on herself to always be better. Looking back at some of the hardest years of her life, Savannah reflects on the anger she carried, the grace she didn’t feel like she was receiving, and how learning to give grace has helped her become a happier and more fulfilled version of herself.
This is a vulnerable conversation about growth, forgiveness, relationships, faith, and finding out that there really is life on the other side of hurt and trauma. Savannah also shares a little more about the self-reflection that has come with writing her memoir and the lessons she wishes she had learned sooner.

See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info. - This week on Unlocked, Savannah is joined by her mom, Julie Chrisley, for a conversation that has nothing to do with prison, pardons, headlines, or the past. Instead, it's just a mother and daughter sitting down to talk honestly about the relationship they've built through every season of life.
Julie opens up about what it's been like stepping back into motherhood after coming home, the challenges of raising adult children, and why learning to let go can be harder than holding on. Together, they reflect on healing, the transition from parent and child to genuine friendship, and the moments that changed the way they see each other.
The conversation also dives into navigating public criticism, finding contentment instead of constantly chasing what's next, blended family dynamics, dating someone with children, and the parenting advice Julie wishes Savannah would finally take. Along the way, there are plenty of laughs, heartfelt moments, and the kind of honest conversations that happen when the cameras stop chasing the headlines.

See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info. - This week on Unlocked, Savannah Chrisley sits down with Caleigh Hardy — wife of country music's HARDY, mom to 15-month-old Rosie, and the internet's next favorite follow. Savannah and Caleigh get into it all: what it's really like building a marriage and an identity around someone else's massive career, the "red zone" reality of dating in Nashville when your husband is HARDY, and how Caleigh went from a California girl who'd never met an SEC fan to falling hard for Ole Miss and the South.
They dive deep into The Hardy Fund and The Rosie Fund — the couple's charitable foundation named after their daughter — including the emotional story of why Caleigh turned to donor milk from the Mother's Milk Bank Southeast and how that experience turned into a mission to help other moms. Caleigh also opens up about the pressure (and shame) around breastfeeding, deciding what's worth sharing online now that she's a mom, and the one post she deleted so fast you'd never find it (though she confirms — it's out there somewhere).
Plus: life on the road with a toddler, what she and Michael actually fight about, going full "crunchy mom" with bone broth and fragrance-free everything, using her voice publicly even when it's uncomfortable, and a first-ever tease of a brand new project she's been dreaming about for years.

See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info. - Savannah is joined by someone you've watched grow up right before your eyes, but this conversation proves Grayson Chrisley isn't a kid anymore. Just days away from turning 20, Grayson opens up about college life at the University of Alabama, finding his independence, chasing a career in sports management, and what it's really been like growing into adulthood after everything their family has faced.
The siblings also look back on one of the hardest chapters of their lives as Grayson shares, for the first time, what it was like having Savannah step into the role of guardian while their parents were away. He reflects on where they struggled, what she got right, and the lessons they've both learned about family, grace, and growing through impossible circumstances.
Of course, it wouldn't be a Chrisley conversation without plenty of laughs. From Grayson admitting he's still using Savannah's credit card for DoorDash, to golf course stories, future birthday plans in Vegas, and Savannah putting him through a rapid fire phone check, their brother sister chemistry is on full display.
They also dive into college football, NIL, faith on campus, protecting the people you love, and why Grayson believes life may have something completely unexpected waiting for him after graduation. It's honest, funny, and a reminder that even after years in the spotlight, there's still so much of this family we haven't seen.
