When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.
I really do see that anywhere I am, whether it’s doing interviews a hundred in a row, that every situation I’m in, I’m at choice in the matter.
I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.
I’ll keep evolving and put that into my songs.
I’m about 90 percent vegan. I think veganism is really well suited for training, at least for me anyway.
I’ve been really enjoying writing articles and writing music and music for movies.
In the past, I had workaholic issues.
Making a movie requires 20 to 500 people to make and a lot of money and the stakes are a lot higher.
Music will always be a part of my life. I love music and I don’t care how many units I sell.
My greatest environments in which I can grow, or grow up, is in personal romantic relationships with a man.
The thing I always default to is that I’ll always be here to write songs.
The whole celebrity thing is not something I’m overly interested in. I don’t pop up at parties. It’s just not my thing.
Unless I really loved it and felt really passionate about it, I would just kind of abort the song and start a new one.
I’m clearly most well known for my music. Eventually, ultimately, I’ll be writing books. I’m still writing articles now. I just consider myself a writer.
I’m excited about there being more of a sisterhood these days. Back in the ’90s there was a lot of hate – the women I looked up to as artists were dissing me! It’s not so patriarchal these days – there’s more love and a lot less hate!
I’ve been doing a lot of different cross-training and kickboxing and Capoeira and kite surfing, and I’ve just really been back to what I consider my original athletic self.
I started making music because I could.
Writing a song doesn’t heal things. Even if the song comes up with a solution, it’s still only a theory. Going out and living my lyrics is a whole other deal. That takes courage.
All of my unconscious fears were in my face about letting go of the current identity. A lot of the thoughts that came up were fear-based and false, so I had to work to let them go.
As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic.
