The Lie About “Making It” | Hannah Dasher

Country singer Hannah Dasher opens up about losing her record deal and learning that her worth isn’t defined by her music career. In this episode of The Stephan Hogan Podcast, she shares how Christian faith helped her rethink ambition, rejection, and success. The creator of Stand By Your Pan explains why she believes God had to humble her—and how that experience changed her priorities. We discuss finding your identity beyond your work, forgiving people who hurt you, and changing negative self-talk. Hannah also shares the stories behind her Stand By Your Pan cookbook, appearing on Good Morning America, and building an independent country music career. If a career setback has left you questioning your worth, this conversation explores how to keep pursuing your dream without letting it define you.
