I think being really connected to a higher power, of having a spirituality to me, has been really good for me and I pray all the time.

How terrible would it have been if I had come out with some watered-down version of who I am? People fell in love with the real me, and I still feel blessed that that was how the journey began.

I feel like B sides are always better, no matter whose record it is.

I'm very blessed to have a phenomenal husband, son, and beautiful family and friends around me.

The most important thing is to be proud of the work that you put into something, and put the ego aside.

What breaks my heart is suffering of any kind.

Fear is not a part of my vocabulary, actually, and I think that it's really made me a much smarter, braver for sure, person.
