When you gain 50 pounds during pregnancy like I did, you fear that you'll never get back in shape

I am a single mom and I'm the breadwinner and I have to work and I have to do these things and that's just the way it is. I don't think my son even knows any different.

Sometimes decisions get made and it ends up being God doing for you what you couldn't do for yourself.

There are so many heroes just walking around in everyday life. It blows me away.

Always trust your gut and your intuition will steer you right, every time.

It's been a difficult thing because some great opportunities have come and I've just been holding my breath and praying... I'm basically gambling hoping something will come along this season and if not, I don't know what the future holds.

When I was eight years old, or I may have been younger, my aunt picked me up and threw me in the pool and I didn't know how to swim. It was like, "Conquer your fear and just get on with it." It must have made an impact on me.
