I've had a great career already, but I feel like I obviously have so much more I want to say.

I have so much music I want to write still.

So I think at this point, learning what I have learned, I think I just know –

Even on paper, I can usually tell, like, okay, we'd be probably a good fit, even if I haven't worked with them before.

Or maybe I have, like, mutual friends with them just because I've been doing this for so long.

So there's that aspect of it.

I think, yeah, I don't love the speed dating kind of thing.

songwriter thing.

I've done it and, um, yeah, it can be really awkward.

It really does feel like you're dating very quickly cause you have to like get to the deep stuff.

Um, I totally get it, but I, yeah, I think at this point I'm, I'm pretty,

I think I'm just pickier because I kind of know myself more now.

I know what I want.

So on one hand, yeah, I'm not saying I'll never write with people that I've never worked with before.

Because even on this album, there's people that... It's like the first time we've met and then we wrote some of my favorite music ever.

But I just think my team at this point knows me too well enough where they're like, okay, they would click.

So I think...

I feel like I've put in the hours, I've put in the work now where it just feels like I can navigate some of the awkwardness, the initial awkwardness now.

Oh, my gosh.

I mean, the biggest thing is becoming a mom, which I heard you've also just become a mom.
