On if she’d return to Broadway:

“I would. I love theater so much, and I actually did a Broadway show when I was 13 years old. I was a chorus girl. Yeah, 13. I had a few little lines, and it was the most incredible training. And to sing songs written by Jason Robert Brown—it’s so beautiful and so challenging. I feel like that’s where I developed stamina. But I would love to be onstage again…it’s funny, because I thought that’s what I would be doing with my life when I was a young girl.”

On her relationship with social media:

“I used to actually do that quite a bit and it became so exhausting. I felt like, ‘This is my ego doing this.’ Again, I just feel like should that dance have to be a part of being an artist, or should that just be put in a box far away from me, and I’ll just do my art and not let that ruin my relationship to it? Yeah, the spiritually enlightened route. But I actually would rather go the cool young person route and just say what’s on my mind sometimes. I really would, but then I just do a meditation and move on. [Laughs]”

On her relationship to music and touring:

“I spent a lot of time redoing my system when it comes to making music. With Eternal Sunshine, that felt like a very different experience for me. I think the time away from it helped me reclaim certain pieces of it and put certain feelings that maybe belonged to my relationship to fame, or the things that come with being an artist, in a box somewhere else, and say, ‘Okay. I don’t have to let go of this thing that I love. I can just put those things over here, and not lose sight of my gifts.’ So I’ve just been taking baby steps towards healing my relationship to music and touring, and I think my time with Glinda and with acting really helped me build the strength to be able to do that. But I can’t express how grateful I am. I think it just held some traumas for me before, and I feel those dissipating, and that is such an extraordinarily beautiful thing.”
