We dive into her shift from classical vocalist to DJ/producer, what it's like performing while pregnant, and how she's juggling creative evolution with real life in the middle of tour season. Don't miss this one! This episode is raw, honest, and seriously fun you can't get anywhere else!

Rebranding as an artist isn't a quick fix; it's a long, uncomfortable process.
