The reason why you don't see people looking like me is because I don't encourage that. I encourage you to be you.

Breathing becomes really easy when you're laughing. It kick starts that feeling of joy.

The wise healer endures the pain. Cry. Tears bring joy.

I'm just being who I am and expressing myself as everyone else does.

I was the bohemian in my family, the "this is my favorite shoe and I don't care if it has tape around it" kind of person. The tape could become a fashion statement. Or a political statement.

I think [ fashion philosophy] it's about your smile and your smell.

My fourth mother, my godmother, she passed away a couple years ago - her name was Gwen. She was the theater director over at the gym where I grew up and learned about all those awesome things I told you about already. She was the one who taught me terms like "upstage" and "downstage," all those technical things about the art of what I do - how to breathe what I see, how to move. They were all her tactics, not anything learned or given to me through a theory, but rather by her natural abilities.
