I love producing! It's so much fun to start with a blank canvas and create the picture you want to create and see it all come together.

I just love where I am right now in my career. I love country music. I don't ever feel restricted by the genre. I've been able to have a solid career that we've built one step at a time and a family. I know that I'm in a good place.

I think that being thrown into instant fame must be, at times, difficult.

What drives me now is the desire to be able to keep doing this. I love making records and performing, and success means I will continue to have the privilege to do that. I know it's not going to last forever, but I'd like to keep having success as long as I can so that I can still be a part of this industry.

Having three daughters, it is important for me to set a good example and teach them to make decisions that are healthy for your heart no matter what age you are.

I wanted to make a record that people could put on year after year after year, and it would never feel dated.

Every show, every audience is different, and I just love leaving the venue feeling like we all know each other a little bit better.
