This record is about me learning to trust myself again. It’s about being broken down and having to figure out how to rebuild. How to love and how to forgive. Over the last several years, I’ve been writing daily with different people for lots of different reasons. Learning to trust people with my music has helped me learn to trust myself more and to realize that there isn’t a right or wrong answer in being an artist. The challenge, I think, is finding out who we want to be and being that. No matter what.”
