People who truly love to sing have to do it all the time.

I finished high school, moved to Nashville for college, and set out to break into the music business. Every night when I called home with news of my experiences, my mom and dad would encourage me to keep taking those small steps.

When you're sick, nobody takes care of you like your mom.

I've never been the girl that's had the five-year plan, the 10-year plan and I'm still not.

I don't need to be 19 years old or starve myself for some weight or turn men's heads down that road. And thank God I finally know that.

'm the inspiration for picking it up off the floor after it fell off the stool and figuring out a way to make it still work.
