I loved performing every week, but all of the activities and amazing people we met when we were not filming stick out to me the most.

As long as children are still getting kicked out of their homes by parents, getting bullied, commuting suicide, et cetera. it's definitely still worth talking about.

Even in the sad songs, I want people to know that it won't always be like that.

Ordering pizza and jamming out with the contestants in our hotels and traveling the country together brought me so much joy.

If I can help encourage or inspire someone out there who is struggling with some of the same or similar issues as myself, then I think it's worth talking about.

I think my entire songwriting catalog reflects where I was in my life at the time. I capture whatever moment I am experiencing in life.

I was so fortunate to sing and work with so many amazing performers and artists.
