Living in America and, of course, just being women in general, we've got more strength than we think we do.

My mother was always fascinated with the fact that I could rhyme so much stuff.

I usually eat breakfast twice. I'm usually up at 3 a.m. - do my spiritual work, my affirmations, a little bit of songwriting, get my daily work in order, and by that time I've worked up a bigger appetite.

Everybody has a purpose.

I just love life. I love people. I love to write, that's my gift. I love to sing. I have a good attitude. I like to think I shine from the inside.
