[edit] Music Video

The music video for "Ready to Fly" was shot in Shanghai, China. The video starts off with Pearson sitting down writing the lyrics on a notepad. Outside of the room there is a couple fighting, they then walk away from each other. Pearson then goes outside and starts walking as well. She comes to a bridge and passes over it. Finally she is next to the ocean, where the female who was fighting previously is also there. The female takes off her engagement ring, wraps it in a red handkerchief from her pocket, and throws the ring into the water. Pearson finishes the music video with the wind blowing towards her.
