Emotionally, I stay healthy by being grounded in the word of God, being open and honest, never being afraid to speak my mind in love, and having good communication with those around me.

I'm always inspired by people who raise the bar, whether in their field of work, parenthood, or giving back.

It wasn't always easy at times, having grown up on television and being in the entertainment industry.

There will never be another woman who owns the look, the personality, and the experience that you do. Those ingredients make up the recipe that defines who you are, and it's your gift from the Lord - own it.

I always try to get at least eight hours of sleep each night. It's the best thing I can do for my body.

I did a lot of my school on set. Some years I went to a private school for a couple of hours, and then I'd always finish up with a tutor. I couldn't do full days, but I tried to maintain my friendships and some normalcy while doing a show.

Once I got my driver's license everybody treated me like I was an adult.
