From Netflix Fame to Farm Life: Shannon Woolsey’s Wild Ride | Episode 102

In this episode of The Cowgirl Closet, host Addy Ford sits down with one of her best friend, Shannon Woolsey, for an unfiltered conversation that gives listeners a front-row seat into Shannon’s incredible journey. From British-born city girl to a cheerleading star on Netflix’s Cheer, and now a ranch-living, boot-wearing Texas woman.

You’ll hear the two dive into Shannon’s upbringing in London, her unexpected move to Houston, and how she got her start in competitive cheerleading, including the sacrifices her family made to support her dreams. Shannon opens up about life after viral fame, the pressures of social media, and how she stayed grounded through it all.

But the heart of this episode is about transformation: how a girl who once felt totally out of place in the country is now collecting eggs, wearing rain boots unironically, and learning to love the slower, simpler lifestyle on a Texas ranch. From fashion evolutions and funny stories (yes, her first time on a farm was chaos) to moments of reflection on body image, self-identity, and love, Shannon keeps it real with honesty and humor.

This isn’t just a catch-up with a friend, it’s a story of growth, culture shock, and finding confidence in unexpected places.

Whether you’re tuning in for fashion inspo, a laugh, or to feel seen in your own journey, this episode will leave you feeling like you just had the best heart-to-heart with your favorite girls.
