On this episode of Unlocked, Savannah Chrisley welcomes Alexis Wilkins for a conversation that stretches far beyond the labels people often put on her as the girlfriend of Kash Patel, Director of the FBI. Alexis is a Nashville-based country artist, political commentator, and advocate who’s built a career at the intersection of music, media, and civic engagement. But in this hour, she shows up first and foremost as a woman navigating faith, family, public scrutiny, and the cost of having a voice in spaces that don’t always feel safe to speak in.
Alexis shares her journey from growing up in Arkansas and starting her songwriting career as a teenager to finding her place in Nashville’s music scene and eventually stepping into the political arena. She talks about what it means to stay rooted in your values when your name becomes a headline, how quickly misinformation can take on a life of its own, and why choosing silence or speaking up both come with their own consequences.
The conversation turns deeply personal as Alexis opens up about the emotional toll of online attacks, the importance of protecting her family and her faith, and what it’s been like to build a relationship in the public eye while navigating a constant media spotlight. Savannah and Alexis also reflect on being women in male-dominated spaces, earning your seat at the table, and why integrity matters more than approval.
They end on a hopeful note, talking about using platforms for good, redirecting criticism into purpose-driven work, and what Alexis would tell her younger self about resilience, perspective, and staying true to who you are.
Along the way, Alexis also shares what’s next for her creatively, including upcoming music and the projects she’s currently pouring her energy into, giving listeners a glimpse of the person behind the headlines and the work still ahead.
