America's a very traumatized society.
Europe seems a little softer, but in America it's harsh. In L.A., where I live, it's all about perfectionism.
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 get angry at myself for staying in relationships way too long.
I live with some of my best friends from high school, very commune-like, in my house. It's my hippie way of life.
The people that were invested in me staying the same way after a decade will most likely by default have to be disappointed.
My greatest environments in which I can grow, or grow up, is in personal romantic relationships with a man.
I thought the more famous I became, the more friendships I would have, but the opposite was true.
My three addictions of choice are food, love and work.
Infidelity is a deal breaker for me. I've broken up with people over it. You can't do monogamy 90 percent of the time.
When I was younger, I was terrified to express anger because it would often kick-start a horrible reaction in the men in my life. So I bit my tongue. I was left to painstakingly deal with the aftermath of my avoidance later in life, in therapy or through the lyrics of my songs.

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 think there is no better way to invite a human being to view their body differently than by inviting them to be an athlete, by revering one's body as an instrument rather than just an ornament.
I'm about 90 percent vegan. I think veganism is really well suited for training, at least for me anyway.
There's cleanliness to how I eat now. I'm much more in tune with my body, so now that I'm so in tune based on having become a semivegan, I can tell what foods affect energy levels. I can tell when I've been eating particularly high nutrient foods or I can tell when my glycemic levels are all over the place.
Getting married and starting a family has been a lifelong goal and one that I have persevered through different paths up to it!
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
I'll be writing records until I'm dead, whether people like it or not!
My parents offered me the idea of ceilinglessness. There was no limit in terms of what was possible; no messages sent to me to say that I couldn't do anything.
