I think any time people behave in a way that's truly them, then they'll never fail. You get in trouble when you try to copy others.

I live a very normal regimented life that focuses on my training and my private life so I squeeze the insane stuff in around that.

People are already p*ssed off at me because I'm athletic and beautiful; to be smart in addition to that... it's like, too much.

I won't say my nutrition is perfect. If I'm at a restaurant and there's fresh pasta on the menu, I'm going to order it. At home, though, I avoid grains and do a lot of the cooking to control what our family eats.

We've figured out our roles: I wanted someone to take care of the male roles - the big stuff - and Laird [Hamilton] does that very well. I'm here to be the mom and make it better for him, and that's my choice.

In some ways, I'm relieved that I didn't have a son.

My motivation has always been health - eating healthy and taking care of myself.
