I'm not done with love, but I refuse to settle.

If you're of multiple races, you have a different challenge, a unique challenge of embracing all of who you are but still finding a way to identify yourself and I think that's often hard for us to do.

Most people I know of that mix have a real ability to be in a room with anyone, black or white.

Career is important, but nothing really supersedes my roles as a mother.

I realize as you age the less makeup you wear the younger you look.

I have to live for me. I have to do what I need to do for me, and I have stopped concerning myself with what people say.

I'm a much better mother at 46... than if I were like, 21 or 25.
