I use nothing but the best ingredients. My cookies are always baked fresh. I price cookies so that you cannot make them at home for any less. And I still give cookies away.

If you think you can, then you’re half way there. If you say, ‘I can’t,’ then you’re defeated.

All I need as payment is a smile. That just really pushes me forward so that I'm always capturing the next opportunity to develop myself.

My role is to coach, encourage, inspire, motivate, and help people.

We knew we loved making cookies and every time we did, we made people happy. That was our business plan.

I get very excited when I wake up in the morning and I am just full of oxygen. I say that purposefully. I try not to take for granted how lucky we are to have life and breath and opportunity. Once we've got that, we can conquer anything. Truly, I get high on oxygen, and once I graduate from that, what really fulfills me is doing what I love. That, to me, is absolutely priceless.

The important thing is not being afraid to take a chance.
