Additionally, on the eve of the publication of the book, Underwood launched her new fitness app, fit52, on March 2nd, which is now available for download on iOS, a holistic wellness platform designed to encourage and support users on their personal wellness journey. March also marks her 5th Anniversary as founder and lead designer of her fitness and lifestyle brand, CALIA by Carrie Underwood, which launched in 2015 and is exclusively available at DICK’S Sporting Goods nationwide and online at calia.com.
Since winning American Idol in 2005, fans around the world have come to admire Carrie Underwood for her tremendous talent, down-to-earth style, and dedication to health and fitness. As a multi-Platinum award-winning singer, songwriter, and lifestyle entrepreneur, it’s easy to see why fans not only eagerly anticipate each new album, but also closely follow what she does to stay fit – tracking her workouts and healthy eating tips on social media. And with her debut book, and the fit52 app, Carrie shares with readers and users a sustainable, common-sense approach to staying active, eating well, and looking as beautiful as you feel.
Throughout FIND YOUR PATH, Carrie opens up about her personal journey towards optimal health. “Health and fitness are something I am truly, deeply passionate about,” says Underwood, and urges readers of FIND YOUR PATH to “do their best most of the time.” Her mantra is that fitness is a lifelong journey—not about perfection—and this book will set her fans on a path to health, and taking care of their bodies and souls, for life.
Carrie is currently making her way up the country charts with her latest single, “Drinking Alone.”
Audio / Part of the title of Carrie Underwood's new book is "Fuel Your Soul," so we asked her what fuels her soul. She says it's a combination of things.
Carrie Underwood (what fuels her soul) OC: …soul is happy. :46
“I think what fuels my soul is a balance of music, family, health, fitness, friends, work, all of it. Balance is — I feel it’s a word that people use all of the time, but it’s because people are searching for it. People are juggling trying to figure out how to make it all happen, and when you have your life and a sense of you feel balanced, your world is just so much better and you’re happier and you’re not stressed out. I feel like that’s what fuels my soul is when I do feel like I’m doing good things for myself and I’m being a good mother and I’m being a good wife. I’m giving all I’ve got to give in my job, which is making music. When I feel good about all of those things, my soul is happy.”
Maddie & Tae have officially made their own Tik Tok account, and they posted to their other socials that they’re going “to try to make some funny videos…keyword try.”
The ladies are climbing the country charts with their song “Die From a Broken Heart.” They’re also getting ready to release their album, The Way It Feels, available April 10th.

The Hot Country Knights made their Grand Ole Opry debut last night (3/10) where they revived a long standing comedic element that’s been integral to Opry history, harkening back to the days of Little Jimmy Dickens and String Ben Akeman. With tongue firmly in cheek, the Knights “mixed humor and honky-tonk hooks” (Rolling Stone) during performances of their debut single “Pick Her Up” (feat. Travis Tritt) and “the power ballad” (Billboard) “Asphalt” from their forthcoming album THE K IS SILENT, out May 1st. Additionally, with the help of Lil Doug, the Knights showed off the tightest line dance of all time during the “Moose Knuckle Shuffle.” All tracks are instantly available through the pre-order purchase of THE K IS SILENT at all digital retailers here.
Get a firsthand look as the Hot Country Knights bum rush the Grand Ole Opry and receive false hope from Del McCoury during their “Opry Abduction” here:

Produced by Dierks Bentley, the multi-Platinum entertainer also serves as a co-writer on over half of the 10 brawny tracks.
