Episode 014

Meghan Rossie | From Broadcast Anchor to Entrepreneur

Fine. Let’s get it out of the way. Meghan’s husband is famous. He is an incredible actor with iconic roles on his resume. Anyone who has seen Sons of Anarchy (Juice) or Luke Cage (Shades) knows who Theo Rossi is and they love him! But I know Meghan as the girl next door who grew up to be a fantastic Broadcast anchor with a heart of gold. Meghan has always been a “go-getter”. When I knew her as a teenager, she was the girl who seemed to have it all figured out, and for the most part she did. She knew who she was and she knew what she wanted to do with her life. It always included being a broadcast journalist. What she didn’t realize was how she would use those skills in a completely different way, “off the air”.

However, the story for this Texas darling is in her relationship with her husband Theo. It is not only inspiring to hear how they met, but their love story is one I haven’t heard happening in this century. I am sure it has many times, but it was such an old tale it felt new again. For me though it was the intentional choices she made BEFORE meeting Theo that really moved my heart.

The real elephant in the room during this recording is how Meghan addresses the News. As in the media that produces and broadcasts the news. This is not an episode that goes into today’s controversies with the News. This episode also will not try to sway or blame or curse at anyone or anything. Rather, it is a refreshing conversation from a perspective of someone who dedicated her life to being trained in journalism. Meghan beautifully explains how she always wanted to tell stories and how she now uses those skills in ways she never would have imagined. She does this all while being the mom of two little boys with her cutie of a famous husband that she shares her life with in Texas.
