Singer Sharon Van Etten wrote a song in homage to Tig called "Words" that is shown in the credits.

In regard to why she wanted to make the film, Goolsby said, "I was beyond inspired by Tig and how she was navigating her life in the midst of total loss and devastation. Here was a person on the precipice of great change, and the possibility of capturing her journey as she put her life together after an unfathomable series of events, in real time, was a chance to tell a powerful story that could illuminate the courage, compassion, and extraordinary strength of Tig."
