I've learned that it's way harder to be a baby. Everything is a struggle for her. For instance, I haven't thrown up since the '90s and she's thrown up twice since we started this interview. Motherhood is cake compared to what it's like to be a baby.

Once you stay open, it's incredible what starts unfolding.

Maybe something that's acceptable in your teens or 20s is unacceptable in your 30s or 40s

Since I begrudgingly started my Instagram account and my social media exposure/connection. I say begrudgingly because I just didn't want to take the plunge, but when I realized it was just a direct connection to our customer and these women, I did it. I like listening to their stories and their feedback.

I love it, but it's not important to me to always be thought of as sexy. I like it when it doesn't limit my career. It's a part of my life, but on a secondary plane

I love having a man in my life, and being his woman at the end of the day. I know it's a dichotomy.

I listen to [customers] and we make adjustments because we pretty much average a collection every six weeks. We're constantly taking everything in and taking notes.
