I’ve learned to trust myself, to listen to truth, to not be afraid of it and to not try and hide it.
Time is a beautiful thing. It’s like when you meet an old lover on the street six years later and they don’t look so ugly anymore.
I was trying to uphold what I thought feminism was as best I could by supporting women, by trying to create an opportunity to get women to get together, play music together and celebrate the fact that we are having great success making music on our own and together.
It’s a very romantic sentiment, but to think that you would die if you didn’t write, well, I would definitely choose to not write and live.
I have a full life: I have two amazing kids, I have great friends, great family. And right now, that’s plenty for me to manage. A new relationship just seems like way too much work.
I’m not one to sit and wallow – I would rather figure out a way around so I can move past it and be at peace with things. I don’t like bad feelings gnawing away at me.
I think often sadness is a great place to get songs from.
Coming to terms with the fact that my marriage was a failure was devastating and very difficult.
It’s all kind of a big illusion: the white picket fence and the perfect marriage and the kids. Check that box off, check that box off, and move forward.
I think sometimes all you need is to hear someone else say the same thing that you’re going through to realize that you’re not alone. I try to put some sense of hope into the songs, into whatever the situation is so that it’s not just dirt, drudgery and a life of misery.
