I embrace my body, and I embrace everything about myself. Coming full circle is a celebration of freedom and happiness because that's what [my new album] 'Lotus' is representing. I'm embracing everything that I've grown to be and learned to be.

Some people are afraid of change and [feel] that getting older is a bad thing, but I really love maturing and gaining wisdom, and the experience of being pregnant and having a child and seeing what a woman's body can do is amazing.

I just kick off my shoes, walk around barefoot, I don't care if my feet get dirty.

I am a woman who has my extreme vulnerable side and my baggage - and at times I feel extremely weak.

I didn't want to do something that was easy for me.

It's amazing how a truly great songwriter can touch anyone in the world with their words.

I was brought up in a household of chaos and I never felt stable at home.
