Emma Nissen

This was my anthem that I think carried me through a lot of life.

Anything that came my way, I was like, well, we got to have faith.

And that just kind of became my thing.

And it's applicable to just about anything.

I look around and begin to count my... It's not the right lyrics.

What is it?

First one, I should know it.

No, it is.

Oh, it's Reaching Out.

Reaching Out.

Counting my blessings.

Yeah.

I don't, honestly, so on my mission, I just had Facebook and it was like my mom and probably some other fan accounts that she had created that like I didn't have anybody following me.

And I kind of, I had to get over this fear that people were going to judge me for being a girl that was singing because I never wanted to be the type of person that was like, hey guys, here's a song that I wrote and I really like it and I hope you like it too.

You know what I'm saying?

So I just didn't want to be that person that like was self-centered and thought that I was a great singer and that everyone would benefit from listening to me.

But then I realized like once I started writing about my spiritual journey and like my imperfections in that journey, I realized, oh, it's not about me.

It's about the collective, you know, bringing people together and the experiences that we share.

I could tell you probably a lot of stories of me embarrassing myself with the few celebrities that I've met and you will see how flawed I truly show up as.

I met John Legend last December.
