Interview: Cheeky Chica
Hi Cheeky Chica! Thanks for being here!
What has been the biggest "pinch me" moment of your career thus far?
Definitely making the decision to sell my house in Illinois and move to Nashville (in MY CAMPER). Like, WHAT!?!? Never in a million years did I think I'd make a literal move so big, states away from home, to live in my camper to pursue my dreams. But here I am.
What could you give a 40-minute presentation on without any preparation beforehand?
Self Love. Unconditional love. People say they want Unconditional love but I think very few people really understand it. Loving yourself means setting boundaries. Loving yourself means speaking your truth. Loving yourself sometimes means saying goodbye to people you love to protect your space. You can love someone unconditionally from a distance. I have quite a few stories that go along with all of this.
Top 3 things on your bucket list…
1.Take my kids to see the Ocean. My kids are 8 years, 6 years, and almost 1 year old and none of them have seen an ocean (problems of living in the midwest).
2. See some of the places Ive never been. Travel to Hawaii, Italy, Greece, and Dubai.
3.Win a Grammy
Is there a song you would like to cover? If so, what song?
Not a song I want to cover, but a song I reimagined with lyrics. Lindsey Stirling "Roundtable Rival." I've been in contact with her management team and producer to get proper licensing, with no luck. But I'm not giving up hope yet.
Do you have any hidden talents?
I can make a noise that sounds like a train horn (with my voice). Don't put me on the spot to do it tho! I'll sound like a dying train.
What is inspiring you right now?
Angels. I talk to Angels often and I get the best material from them. But also my kids. They might not know it, but everything I'm doing is so we can have a better life.
Name a genre of music that you've never done but would love to dive into? Who would be a dream to collaborate with it on?
This is hard because I have a lot of plans and I'm only just beginning! Lets just say, I plan to enter a lot of genres. And my dream Collaborator would be Elle King. We're definitely doing a duet one day.
