I have a spiritual practice which helps to keep me grounded and centered.

Yoga is vital because it keeps me in full awareness and connection with my breath.

I love to paint. It's more of a hobby, but people love the paintings so much that I end up selling whatever I paint.

If necessary, I cry. I pray. I rest. I'm fortunate to have quite a few strong, independent, loving, and unbiased women in my life that I can talk things through with.

My involvement is an extension of who I am as a person. I have found a sense of renewal and peace when I allow myself to be open to create, give, and fully participate in things that call me to respond from my core.

I don't think I've entirely had that moment yet! There's still so much more to be done. Professionally I am so grateful to step out into the television world with the remarkable opportunity of being on Empire.

I keep a gratitude log, which helps to remind me of all the blessings I experience daily.
