I started working out with a trainer and I immediately saw results.

I just try to get out of my own way because if anyone is their own worst enemy, it's usually you.

Love is when I smile and breathe deeply down to my toes. I've given myself a gift of caring for myself and learned a new way to look at my issues. And I'm lying in some fresh sheets looking out the window at some visual beauty... a mountain, an ocean, a stream, a forest. A lovely man lying next to me or my babies sleeping.

When I first came out, like a lot of the artists at that time, I had a very polished, very overproduced sound.

I don't always win at this, but I know I do better when I meditate.

But once you strip that down, you realize it's all about a voice, like a Norah Jones - that's inspiring to me.

Singing and being truthful to a song... I've developed that skill, and I know how to do that real instinctively, that's all I've been doing for the last 25 years.
