00:05what what changes do you hope come about of the next few years the next decade or so
00:10that grow on on like what your success has been in becoming a leader of the female movement of
00:19rock and roll um well is that even fair for me to say that no no i think that's very
00:25fair because
00:26it's something that um you know i've had conversations with my counterparts with amy lee
00:30and my friends about this and you know the women that came before me and we're talking my parents
00:37generation what i grew up on you know which is you know heart and pat benatar and joan jed and
00:42lita ford and and all of those women who i've actually met and gotten the opportunity to say
00:48hey thank you for not giving up you know because i feel like if they had said oh well it's
00:54too hard
00:55you know that might have been my rhetoric as well so it's um they had it a lot harder than
01:03i had it
01:03and you know so they took some of the burden off of me by just existing and by passing the
01:11torch
01:11and keeping on keeping on you know and so for me my only responsibility is to try to make it
01:19a little
01:19easier for whoever comes after me you know and and that and and that really is it's the simplest and
01:27the hardest thing to just exist as your truest self be as honest as you possibly can and um and
01:35keep
01:36doing the work you know and don't you know as no matter how weird things get or hard things get
01:42don't
01:42roll over and die because of it because that gives a signal to the next generation of female rockers
01:51saying oh well lizzie did it so therefore i can too and then hopefully as we pass the torch it
01:57just
01:57gets a little easier and easier as we go along it's like it's like you know no one generation
02:04can win the whole war but but we can win a lot of really tough battles
