Kourtney is joined by MLB wife, former Dallas cowboys cheerleader and mom of 2, Kat Pressly. This episode was recorded in July of last season and right after, baseball life happened. Naturally, I chose not to share the episode as they settled into the new chapter of Ryan's retirement from playing and new beginnings for their family! I spoke with Kat and decided to revisit the episode because it was such a good chat and we both agreed to share it. We talked about Ryan going from the Astros to the Cubs, how she enjoyed Wrigley Field & Chicago. We also chat about her life as a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. Kourtney asks her about her real estate career and they finish the episode with a fun round of rapid fire questions! Find us on social media!
