I knew who I was as a girl but I had to find who I was as a woman. ”

I don't think I've ever been moulded but I think I am always learning. ”

I used to get stressed out, but my cancer has put everything into perspective. ”

Anybody who has gone through a life-changing experience will tell you there is a different understanding of what is real and what is important, and when you are going through different moments, you can reflect and go, 'I have been through worse.' ”

I'm enjoying writing songs that are more stripped back. ”

I have weathered many different storms and I know who I am and my friends know who I really am. ”

I've done a lot of collaboration over the years, but right now I'm enjoying writing by myself and just being me again for a while. ”

I was at number one in Australia with both my album and my single. And then I was told I had cancer. I thought, 'What a strange turn of events.' ”

Pop was great fun. ”

I need to keep traveling, being a gypsy, having experiences and writing about them. ”
