Moreover, the singer and yodeler found that when she looked back on this time, she realized that her mother was not just stealing. She was also lying to her.

And then as I started investigating the truth about what my mom had told me in my life versus what was true, I had realized that pretty much everything that I had formed my reality off was fiction.
