"You deserve so much joy!"
Woman's World|May 01, 2023
Country music superstar Miranda Lambert has a lot to smile about, including 10 hit albums, three Grammys and more Academy of Country Music Awards than any other artist. But after a painful and public divorce, life took a hard turn. Here, how faith, family, fur babies and ‘me time’ have helped restore her self-confidence, peace and bliss

"You deserve so much joy!"

For Miranda Lambert, life has always revolved around family, friends, faith and a table full of good food. “Every one of us makes memories around tables,” Miranda tells Woman’s World. “We were pretty poor growing up, but my mom would always set the table and use the good china. She made beautiful meals and was a stickler on sitting together as a family at dinnertime. I appreciate those lessons: how to make a house a home, to celebrate always and often for no reason, and to use all the good stuff.”

For “The House that Built Me” singer, her mother’s wisdom has helped Miranda thrive through the good, bad and the ugly of life, including a painful divorce in 2015 from country singer Blake Shelton. And with her 40th birthday coming up this year, Miranda is prepared to carry all of that with her as she blazes forward. “I’m excited for the future—I feel like some days, I’m just getting started!” she says. And with a house in Tennessee with new husband Brendan, her current hit album, Palomino, galloping up the charts and her Walmart home goods line—named Wanda June, after her grandmother, Wanda Louise, and her mother, Beverly June—flying off the shelves, it’s true the sky is the limit for the hitmaker.

“I see my mom and her girlfriends who are in their 60s acting like they are 30, and I feel like what Dolly Parton says is true: ‘Age is just a number!’ I have so many strong women who are older than me living their best lives at 60, and it helps me see there’s beautiful things about every decade: You’ve just got to lean into it.”

Here, Miranda shares her tips for living life to the fullest and enjoying every year.

"I've earned a lot of credit card rewards over the year. I'd like them to help cover holiday costs, but I'm not sure if I should use them for gifts or travel. What are my best options?"

"I've earned a lot of credit card rewards over the year. I'd like them to help cover holiday costs, but I'm not sure if I should use them for gifts or travel. What are my best options?"

With the holidays fast approaching, it's a smart strategy to use cash back, points and miles to help pay for gifts and travel expenses. But it can be hard knowing how to spend them. One reason is that each type has a different monetary value. For example, cash back is worth the dollar amount you earn with each purchase, while points and miles vary in value depending on how you redeem them. Here, Emily Thompson, a credit card rewards expert for ThePointsGuy.​com, shares simple tips to help you pinpoint your best options.
