I always wanted to be someone in the entertainment industry. In my eighth grade slideshow, when everyone was like "show us what you want to be," everyone [said] doctor, lawyer, [but] mine literally said rapper. I wanted to be a musician, I wanted to be a superstar, I wanted to be on stage, I wanted to perform, I wanted to be in movies. But as you grow up, those dreams kind of fade away.

Surround yourself with like-minded, strong people, use your voices and choose courage over fear.

Finding like-minded people is very important. It's hard to be a happy meal in a room full of sad people.

This idea of having back-up plans is ingrained into us to make us believe that that's the smart thing to do.

I've learned from people, being in the weird situations that I get in. Like, dressed as my mom kissing Seth Rogen - that's a thing that happened.

I never was taught how to go into a meeting and talk about a tour and how to plan a show, but seeing that side of things [about] someone who wants to be a Unicorn but has to now be a boss and navigate this is a really powerful and interesting story.

I would never say, "I'm going to do these things in a video to be a role model so people make me a role model." I want to be myself.
