The first 12 years of my career were spent writing songs about loss and longing. Historically, I have felt most at home in heartbreak, both in art and in life. It's largely what I knew growing up, so everything else felt foreign and wrong as an adult.

I may have experienced what others for centuries have been referring to as "love at first sight" that day in the patisserie. I'm pretty sure I don't believe in that, but it was like the minute I laid eyes on this man, I just knew he was going to change my life forever -- and he has.

I reached out to some famous friends to see what their thoughts were on love, family, and relationships. Matt Alber, Bruce LaBruce, Daniela Sea, Danny Roberts, Jackie Beat, Holcombe Waller, and Matthew Zink all weighed in on the same five questions.
