I do a lot of reading on Buddhist philosophy, and a Buddhist nun named Pema Chödrön talks a lot about acceptance. It's one of the main tenets of Buddhism - accepting that what is, is. The root of our suffering is when we just don't want to accept a truth. We want something to be different than it is.

I have been influenced by many different artists at many different stages of my life. Starting out, it was people like Elton John, Billy Joel, Ben Folds, and Fiona Apple. As I got older I got deeper into the work of bands like the Beatles, artists like Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Etta James, and Joni Mitchell.

Sara Bareilles
I got really into rock - soft, romantic rock was my jam.
Sara Bareilles
It's so easy to just rip someone's work apart.

I feel like my songs are like diary entries for me. So I usually write about things that have happened to me specifically or sometimes it can be someone who's close to me.
Sara Bareilles
I'm starting to believe in the power of a name. Because it can't be a mistake if I just call it 'change.'
Sara Bareilles
I'm happy to be working with all women.

I definitely get a little antsy when I haven't had a good fix!
