"Confident women don't compete." Miley Cyrus joined Ryan Seacrest in-studio and enlightened us all. Listen back to the full 20-minute interview with the "Something Beautiful" artist here to learn what it's like working with Beyoncé, the mantras Miley lives by and why she's happy her fans sing along loudly to her new visual album & movie:

Cyrus' new visual album "Something Beautiful" premieres on Hulu and Disney+ today, July 16, and the Disney alum shared with Seacrest the project is a testament to how she's "always growing."

The raw, cinematic journey through love, loss, and self-discovery is rooted in healing.

"When I really actually started to minimize the idea and the concept it became more pure," Cyrus reflected on the "challenging" new project.

"I knew I wanted to open the movie with a prayer because no matter what you believe in ... any time the world, we, come together and we say a piece or a prayer together that's the most powerful."

Miley added she recently "did some meditation at a monastery" and learned that she prefers connection over silence.

"I would make it not silent ... I thought you know if I ever had the Miley monastery the house rules would be a little different," she joked. "I've learned sometimes things don't have to be so drastic."

"My mantra is 'don't run away,'" Miley shared, adding that while yes she still gets nervous to perform, she tells herself to "do it anyway."

"Do it anyway -- the things that you do that you're afraid of -- the challenges really do change you."

Miley said she was actually inspired by viewers being annoyed during "Wicked" screenings of others singing along.

"I want that," Miley shared of her film. "I want the annoyance of the person sitting next to you singing louder ... because I love the communal part of music."

The movies release comes on the heels of Miley's now-viral guest performance during Beyoncé's Paris "Cowboy Carter" tour stop.

"I invited myself," Miley joked. "I was in Paris already and me and everybody else wanted to go to the Beyoncé show in Paris but because I am Dolly's goddaughter I can't do anything for fun I've got to turn it into work. ... She's everything that you would want her to be," Miley gushed of Queen Bey. "Meet your heroes when it comes to Beyoncé."

"Confident women don't compete and that's why both of us get to stand there in our own lane and just celebrate each other," Miley added. "Together we can be really powerful so I thought it was metaphorical that she gave me her riser [for my entrance]. ... That wasn't something I was always given in the past. ... It just shows -- I thought it was a true testament to the kind of woman that she is."
