Singer Tori Kelly on Ditching Perfectionism and Playing Stadiums While Pregnant

Tori Kelly wrote the bulk of her sixth album, God Must Really Love Me, after her son was 10 days old. This week on The Motherly Podcast, the three-time Grammy winner opens up about playing stadiums with Ed Sheeran throughout her entire pregnancy, hiding her bump under oversized jerseys, and the wave of inspiration that hit her almost immediately after giving birth. She talks with Motherly Co-founder Liz Tenety about learning to trade perfectionism for surrender, the spiritual meaning behind her album title, and what it's really like raising an eight-month-old on a tour bus.
