Never be ashamed of what you feel. You have the right to feel any emotion that you want, and to do what makes you happy. That's my life motto.

Focusing on food and exercise changed my life.

Bipolar depression really got my life off track, but today I'm proud to say I am living proof that someone can live, love, and be well with bipolar disorder when they get the education, support and treatment they need.

The more active I am, the better I feel and the longer I can stay onstage without losing my breath.

I don't have many deal breakers. I've done so much in my life, it doesn't feel right to judge other people.

I'm also very passionate about charity because it helps people who don't have as loud of a voice as I do.

I try to keep it real. I don't have time to worry about what I'm projecting to the world. I'm just busy being myself.
