I'm definitely the person for most of my friends that everyone calls, goes to and wants advice from.

Sometimes it takes you longer for you to realize when a person doesn't have the best of intentions or when it is time to let a person go from your life.

While success has hardly come overnight for me, it always comes.

Honestly, I am pretty passionate about avoiding failure!

I had always been an overachiever, so I felt I could just "wing it," reasoning that if I don't set clear, written goals I wouldn't have to account for anything if I failed. Now I'm the opposite! I am always setting goals, and I get very specific about where I'm going and take the time to learn the steps needed to take to get there.

There's a point where you have to take charge of yourself and what you allow in your space.

I grew up as an only child, and my mother was a single mom. It's always been "us." If it weren't for her nurturing and guiding my artistic talents at a young age, I don't think I'd be a professional actress and performer today.
