I am constantly working out-circuit training, jumping rope, and stair-stepping, and sticking to 1200 calories a day. It can't be something that you're doing to lose weight, and then once you do, you're done. I do it every day of my life.

What people don’t understand is that it wasn’t about Dean or Eddie, it was about whether or not I was in the right place.

Even listening to a lot of other music inspires me, too. Like I'll find something and be like, "I love this group!" And I want to write something that's kind of like this.

Every day of my life is going out in public and seeing people's lives and listening to stories - all that kind of stuff musically inspires me.

I'm living life as best I can - but I'm not exempt from failure and making bad choices.

I am incredibly emotionally aware and connected with other people. You know, when you come see me live, you can see that different kind of connection and that connection with what I'm saying, and the things I'm singing about. So it really is about just keeping my eyes open.

Hopefully people will grow with me, because I'm definitely not going to be stuck in one place all my life.
