I love being vulnerable. It's scary. I feel like the best stuff that I have ever written can come from real vulnerable places.

It's not the circumstances that determine who you're gonna be but how you deal with these problems and pains that come your way.

I think one of the things that I carry, and just my goals in life, is just encourage people and make them feel joy and celebrated and they leave feeling like maybe there was stuff talked about that was difficult, but then there was a voice of redemption and grace in the middle of that.

I love creating. I am addicted to the drug of creation and creating things. I get a little depressed when I am struggling to find what I know is locked inside. If it's a lyric or something that is challenging me, I can be very depressed, but when it's like heaven opens up and it gives you a song, it's amazing. There's nothing else that I enjoy more probably.

As my uncle always says, 'If your vibe outweighs your substance, you're destined to be a novelty.' I think that is true in all art.

I enjoy changing; I think it's more fun to try something different than to just do what you did last time.

Songs really tend to connect.
