And when I perform on my own tour, I have to talk myself into going out on that stage every single night.

I pay attention to how I look but I don't let it go too far.

I'm always shy and timid when I write in front of people.

I think the older you get, the more you know about life, and the more you learn about yourself and you become comfortable in your own skin. So the older I'm getting, the more fun I'm having.

Songwriting is like a therapy, it's a connection that you have with another person, and I'm not scared of it at all for some reason.

Talking with my friends and family every day helps keep me grounded and connected to home. They are the most important things to me.

I was always shy and had a huge fear of being onstage.
