I'm just the instrument for the song to do whatever it's supposed to do-heal, inspire or encourage. It's not all about me, it's about the song. I'm just the lucky girl who gets to sing these songs.

I can't be the big star in the family. We have a family, and we are all equal.

Honestly, I just have to do what's right for me, and what I would tell people is what I believe, which is that tolerance is very important.

You have to stick to your guns and still know when to be flexible. That's something I've had to learn-which battles to fight.

I love to sing with great singers.

Not only do I know how to milk a cow, but I know how to herd a bunch of cows, too, which is a life skill that I think may come in handy someday.

Everything is moderation, really. I don't really deprive myself of anything. But I try to balance it with healthy food choices. I am not real fond of exercise, so I try to get away with as little as possible which is about thirty minutes three times a week and I do a little weight training and cardio.
