Description

Join us for a conversation with Paige Murray, author of the beloved Rosie children's book series and a woman who's lived many lives—from small-town South Carolina girl to NASCAR's Miss Sprint Cup, broadcast journalist, cooking show host, and now ranch mama and author.

Paige shares how life on the TY Ranch in Stephenville, Texas, where she lives with her husband, legendary rodeo champion Ty Murray, inspired her to start writing. Surrounded by cattle, horses, and her growing collection of rescue animals, Paige found herself watching her daughter Oakley and stepson Kase learn invaluable lessons through daily ranch life—lessons about responsibility, compassion, hard work, and the natural world.

Those everyday moments of exploration and discovery became the heartbeat of the Rosie series. With Oakley as her muse, Paige created stories that capture the magic, challenges, and adventures of growing up on a working ranch. From caring for animals to exploring wide open spaces, Rosie embodies the spirit of childhood on the land—and the timeless values Paige wants to pass down to the next generation.

In this episode, Paige opens up about her unexpected journey to authorship, why being a mother is her greatest calling, and how she's sharing the beauty of ranch life with children everywhere through her stories.
