Survivor 49 finalist Sage Ahrens-Nichols joins The Exclusive to reflect on her third-place finish and her path to Final Tribal Council, opening up about feeling misunderstood by the jury, the “flip-flopping” label that followed her game, and why she believes adaptation — not indecision — kept her alive in a volatile endgame. Sage also discusses the Steven vote, her complex dynamic with Savannah, her reaction to Kristina’s debated jury question, and whether she would ever consider playing Survivor again.
