The fact that you have the ability to stand on stage and sing while you’re crying is so brave.

Instead of looking in the mirror and focusing on your flaws, look in the mirror and appreciate your best features... everyone has them.

We're all human so of course there are days when I'm feeling insecure. When that happens, I take time to reflect on how far I've come and how far I will continue to go - it helps me feel empowered and self-assured.

It's okay to not be superwoman all the time.

Change your thoughts, change your life. —LAO TZU When I was fighting depression, I remember hearing this expression and not understanding it at first. When I decided to implement it in my life, a whole new world opened up for me. Change the negative, self-loathing thoughts to positive, self-affirming ones. When you’re positive about yourself and everything around you, you begin to see the world in a different light. Your life today is what you make of it. Goal: Be mindful of the tone of your thoughts.

I feel most confident when I'm taking care of my body and my skin.

Do what makes you happy, and don't care what others think.
