SAVANNAH CHRISLEY WILL ‘STAND BY’ HER PARENTS AFTER THEIR FINANCIAL CRIME CONVICTIONS
"I've never seen two people, my parents, be so steadfast in their faith and in prayer … just literally on their knees every morning praying. It's just so admirable, and that's kinda just my focus. Just watching them and still learning … growing from them in times like this, and just kinda staying strong through it all … knowing that, in the end, the truth will prevail. And it may get harder before it gets easier, but we have faith."

Meanwhile, the reality star said she uses her new podcast, "Unlocked," as a coping mechanism while attempting to remain positive through the challenging family situation.
"I think that's what happens, when you've been on TV for 10 years, is you just learn to be good all the time, and I think that's where my podcast comes into play. It's OK to not be OK, and it's OK to be vulnerable … to work through your emotions as you're talking about them," she continued.
