There are a lot of sacrifices a mother makes when she's raising a child by herself. I saw it when I was growing up, watching all my mother did for me. But it wasn't until recently that I fully understood the price she paid because of how we had to struggle.

I've been vegetarian for so long now that I don't remember anything different, so it's easy for me to put meals together and make sure my family is eating healthy, too.

I used to say... 'Don't sweat the small stuff - not even the big stuff.' At the end of the day, none of it matters but your own joy, your own spiritual journey that you go on, God, your loved ones, your friends, your animals. These are the things you've got to cherish and love and embrace.

Thought is creative. Be mindful of where your attention is, because the universe doesn't know the difference. It only knows where your focus is. Life will surely manifest where you put that attention.

I was just shaking and then also immediately, I had to go into 'take-care-of-business-mode' which included a change to a more healthy diet.

I love Christmas. I really do love Christmas. I love being with my family and I love snow. I love the music and the lights and all of it.

I don't want to raise a child by myself. I could do it. But I definitely don't want to. I want to be a mother who has the original father there.
