Some people believe that they should have two different lives, and one is what they show on TV and one is their personal life. I am not that person.

Be independent and don't try to think someone is going to save you or look to someone else to make you happy or look to someone else to complete you.

If you start giving your kids anxiety about food, it's going to last a lifetime. Moms have to lead by example. Don't say, "Oh, my jeans don't fit," or "Oh, I was bad." No diets. Nothing like that.

It doesn’t matter what anybody else thinks of your life. All that matters is what you think of it, and what you decide to make of it.

If you are wasting time and energy trying to be as much like everyone else as you can, you are throwing away something precious: your individuality. When you embrace your difference, your DNA, your look or heritage or religion or your unusual name, that’s when you start to shine.

In many ways, being pregnant and working were more difficult than motherhood.

Celebration is life's frosting: isn't frosting the very best part of the cake?
