Julia Michaels: Second Self

Video Description

In this week’s episode, Tay is back for another girl-talk conversation with Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Julia Michaels! Julia opens up about how she met her fiancé and why being with someone outside of the music industry has brought a sense of balance to her life. She gets candid about her experience with anxiety and panic attacks—what they feel like, how they’ve evolved over time, and the tools that have helped her cope, including the support of her fiancé. Julia shares when she first started writing about her mental health in her music, what initially drew her to songwriting, and the moment she realized it could become a career. She reflects on her deep love for writing songs for other artists, why “Issues” became the one she kept for herself, and how the process continues to be therapeutic. Julia also talks about setting boundaries, going independent for her new EP Second Self, and what it means to finally own her music! 00:00 Intro & Welcome Julia 01:59 Citrus Got Real 03:58 Julia’s Fiance & How They Met 17:42 Anxiety and Panic Attacks 22:04 Issues & Dealing with Mental Health in a Relationship 38:42 Struggling While Being Successful 42:55 Early Career, Songwriting, and Performing 1:01:50 Starting Her Own Label & Coming Out With Second Self 1:16:00 What advice would you give your younger self & what are you most proud of yourself for?
