There's not a second I regret having a child on my own.

I'm raising a child, and it's public. The media creates these dramas, and that's not what's happening in my life.

I'm not sure anyone - and I could be wrong in this - grows up thinking, I want to be a single mom.

I have become that mother I used to dread.

Going through that traumatic time of being heartbroken and then being pregnant turned my whole life upside down and inside out and just knocked the wind out of me. But I got so much out of that.

If you’re healthy all around, you’ll feel better, and if you feel better, you’ll have a more positive outlook. It’s all connected.

I'm not one of those people who thinks they simply deserve success. I have the drive to work.
