When it comes to artistic expression, country singer Lee Ann Womack doesn’t like to hear the word “no.” While speaking with media outlet KXRB in 2015, she talked about her mindset that fuels her career that was slow to start.

“I always thought if one person could do it, there is no reason why I can’t be successful. I approach life that way. I … refuse to believe in the ‘I can’t’ syndrome. I cannot stand to go sit down in a meeting and have someone say ‘Lee Ann, you just can’t do that.’ I found in my life there is very little I just can’t do.”
