What happens when you mix home videos, a 12-second TikTok, and a New Year’s resolution? For Kay and Tay Dudley, it sparked a whirlwind transformation from dental assistant and engineering student to full-time content creators with over 20 million followers. In this surprising and heartfelt conversation, Ginny Yurich sits down with the couple behind the viral sensation to unpack how a simple idea—filming their everyday moments—evolved into a life-changing career, all while navigating health struggles, parenting, and staying grounded in the process.
This episode is an honest look at the power of consistency, creative freedom, and how quickly everything can shift when you lean into your passion. Kay and Tay share the highs and lows of public life, the behind-the-scenes reality of influencer culture, and how their unexpected journey is deeply rooted in love, humor, and intentional family life.
