My daughter is super ballsy. I always follow her lead. I actually don't need to encourage her to take risks. She likes to push herself; she wants to see how far she can get. It's really inspiring to see that in a young woman.

I believe in holistic medicine, yoga, Pilates and so on. But I also believe in banana split sundaes once in a while.

I try to do things where I'm going to feel challenged in some way. I only really do one movie a year.

I try to take care of my hair because it sort of has to withstand a lot of blowdrying and ironing.

I wasn't the high-school play queen or anything. And my parents would let not me act until I graduated from college.

Having survived her 10th London winter (she got through January by assigning it "international month," and amusing Moses and his big sister, Apple, 9, with a visiting Italian chef, Japanese anime screenings, and hand-rolled-sushi lessons, no less), Paltrow admits that her dreams of relocating the family to their recently acquired residence in Brentwood, California, are becoming ever more urgent.

I try to do one thing at a time to utilise my time well.
