They're all personal and self-created challenges that I think I've overcome within myself. Being confident enough to get on stage and play, things like that.

Sometimes when you're in a more fast-paced place, with more to see and do, you miss out on things like nature and beautiful, God-made things. They call it "God's country"!

I've always kind of been in the middle of every room, trying to get people together, no matter what color they were.
