I Wanted To Say To Myself As

I Didn't Go To High School, I Didn't Go To College, I Didn't Have Women's Studies. All Of My Feminist Ideals And Education Have Been Built Around Art And My Friends And Community. And So It's Still Growing.

I Realized That Calling Yourself A Feminist Or Not Calling Yourself A Feminist, Just By Being In A Band Of All Girls, It's All You Talk About.

I Feel Like What I'm Best At Is Being A Musician And A Performer. I Want To Use That To Help People Who Are Good At Starting Nonprofits.

I'm Really Annoyed By The Wave Of Country Music That's Just A List Of Stuff. It Almost Sounds Like L.a. People Writing Country Music, Because It's Just A List Of Stuff: 'my Pickup Truck And My Cowboy Boots And My Levi's Jeans And My Girlfriend With The Short Shorts.' It's So Boring!

Not To Rag On Myself, But When People Say, 'what Does It Feel Like To Be An Icon?' I'm Like, 'my Dog Does Not Think I'm An Icon, My Cat Does Not Think I Am An Icon, My Cousin Does Not Think I Am An Icon.' I Have A Really Lovely Group Of Friends, And I Just Don't Think About It.
