The face you have at age 25 is the face God gave you, but the face you have after 50 is the face you earned.

I've tried and failed a lot. But I've also tried to be really clear about my brand. It is who I am. I'm a mum, I'm a wife, I'm 44 and from the Midwest.

I just want to be a nice girl from the Midwest - I don't want to have to act like a heavy to be taken seriously, and I resent that I have to be so pushy and political sometimes just to do my job.

In the studio, I do try to have a thought in my head, so that it's not like a blank stare.

I use Meaningful Beauty for my daily skincare regime. The system helps to restore, protect, revitalize and renew my skin. Using it daily along with avoiding the sun, not smoking, drinking a lot of water, and getting enough sleep is key to looking and feeling good at any age!

Goal training is important. If there's a 5K walk in the community, train for that.

Being a nice girl from the Mid-West, my inclination is always to give in and say yes because I want people to like me.
