The best way to battle fear is with courage. You have to look at the opposite of fear: Fear is scared of courage.

As a digital creator, there's been so much pressure to write a book because so many of my peers have done it. I've been very adamant about saying, No! I don't want to release a book just for the sake of writing a book. I'm going to write a book when I feel like I have something to say in a book.

If I could give advice to anyone, it would be that sometimes the best way you can fight a problem - and this is going to be a little bit controversial - is to not address it.

I found my voice when I started doing YouTube videos, and that's when I was pretty old, to be honest. I think it's about exploration. I think it's about trying new things, meeting new people, and also, it's about borrowing inspiration from other people. Because I still have those moments where I'm like, Oh my God, I'm a loser, what am I doing?

I never want to position myself where I seem like an ambassador of anti-racism. I am fortunate enough to say that I've never experienced extreme amounts of racism, but a lot of my friends do.

There is no shame in falling down but there is pride in getting back up.

I'm a super spiritual person, so every now and then I'll say, Everyone, get out of my room because I need 15 minutes by myself to just sit alone. I have a chapter in my book [How to Be a Bawse] called Pause, and basically, the idea is one of the ways to be successful is to reflect back on your successes and everything you've achieved.

I think the best way I could ever fight racism is just being as successful as possible.

I was super doubting myself and if I was even cut out to live this life, but then the fans came to my rescue. And I think we all have those moments, but every failure is necessary, especially in the entertainment industry.

This idea of having back-up plans is ingrained into us to make us believe that that's the smart thing to do.

I got into psychology simply because that's what my sister did, and I grew up in a family that was very like, follow your sister's footsteps. I went to the same school she went to, did the same degree she did ... really had no interest in it, to be honest.

I reflect back on my mom's journey, someone who was an immigrant to Canada and came not knowing anything and figured it out tremendously. I reflect back on that a lot.

Everyone finds their voice at different times in their life.

I would never say, I'm going to do these things in a video to be a role model so people make me a role model. I want to be myself.

I feel like you have to use your energy, you have to use your resources to help those who don't have a voice. Whereas back in the day, you could say, I didn't know about this. What was I supposed to do? One person can't make a difference. No, like, none of that's valid. You can make a difference, and you do have a voice.

Fighting for happiness is the hardest thing you'll ever fight for, but it's the only thing worth fighting for.

I never was taught how to go into a meeting and talk about a tour and how to plan a show, but seeing that side of things [about] someone who wants to be a Unicorn but has to now be a boss and navigate this is a really powerful and interesting story.

I think, especially in this time in the world, there is very much a choice between fear and courage, and we all have to pick the courageous route.
