In a world where authenticity is in short supply, I’ve spent my whole life trying to feel at home in my body; to find my true nature buried beneath the conformity and confusion amidst our materialistic image obsessed culture. The words below are a reflection of my soul; the lightening of life. They describe my authentic self and act as a compass by which I design my life as an artist. It’s me – fully expressed.
The self is our life’s goal for it is the completest expression of that fateful combination we call individuality. – Carl Jung
The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are. – Joseph Campbell
Cling to simplicity, sincerity, serenity, and the power of truth. – I Ching
All art is an attempt to identify yourself. You may try out many characters on the way to finding the one that most fits you and, therefore, is you. - Bono

I believe what I believe.
In honour, in integrity, in unity, and in the removing of all blindfolds.
I’m blown away by the idea that true beauty and perfection are in existence. Our job here is to reveal what is concealed by the physical world of blackberries and trash magazines. As artists we create with our hands, our hearts, our souls, and our voices. We try to bring about growth and change, to evoke an emotional response, and to make people better human beings than they were previously.
I think of what Lennon must have felt when he found the lyrics to “Imagineâ€; what flowed through the hands of Renoir, Picasso and Michelangelo; how Karen Cain seems to float with every step. We all possess the physical ability to sit down and write a hit song. The words and chords are there. We have access to paint and point shoes. What very few of us have is the power to ignite that 6th sense and find those specific combinations of music, colour and movement. But, it’s what we’re here to do. It’s the adult version of hide and seek.
I’m here to sing about it, to write about it and make people think. I’m here to talk about all the shit in our lives, to give it a voice, to spin it around and to inspire change. I’m here to sing about beauty, about womanhood, and about love.
At 24, for the first time in my life, I can honestly say I’m proud of the woman I have become. I don’t believe in chance or mistakes. I believe in the absolute power to manifest the life we’re meant to live.
I will be a voice for the woman who hides behind clothes and cosmetics, masquerading with her Louis Vuitton purse and holding more pride in her SL 500 than her family; the woman who believes that the only way for her to succeed is for all others to fail; and for the woman who wants so much to be loved, she forgets how to love.
I will be the voice of the woman who is ashamed of her choices and who uses them as an excuse not to shine.
We are all given a voice. And with that voice, are given the power and responsibility to be heard.
With every song I write, I ask myself “Have I brought forth an emotional response? Does the listener feel differently after having heard the song than they did previously?†For better or worse, it’s all the same.
I’m here to create.
my hero - my daddy!!
