## Resource

In this episode of the You’d Be Surprised podcast, hosts Becca and Chelsie sit down with the vibrant and magnetic Emily Brodock , a makeup artist whose path from a small Utah town to working on major productions like Yellowstone and High School Musical: The Musical: The Series is anything but ordinary. Emily opens up about growing up with four brothers, navigating heartbreak and loss, and the surprising moment that pushed her away from nursing and into a career she never planned. With equal parts humor, vulnerability, and high-energy storytelling, Emily shares the twists, risks, and bold decisions that shaped her career—and why connecting with people has become the true heart of her work. Just when you think you know where her story is going, another unexpected turn proves why her journey is one you’ll want to hear all the way through.
