Kylan Darnell went from a town of 1,500 people in rural Ohio to 200,000 followers in a single day — and nobody was more shocked than her. In this episode, the University of Alabama senior, Rush Talk icon, and former Miss Ohio Teen USA gets real about what overnight fame actually costs, why being a perfectionist nearly broke her, and how she rebuilt her confidence from the inside out.
We get into the hidden pressure of being a public figure on a college campus, what it was like watching her sister and mom join her online, the sorority call that devastated her during 2025 Bama Rush, making $100K in a month as a college student, and why dropping the perfect version of herself was the best thing she ever did.
Plus — Kylan teases what's coming next for the Darnell family, her move to New York, and her future in sports broadcasting.
