Good mothers make all kinds of choices. Making a decision that might sound selfish does not make a woman a bad mother.

That to me is happiness when I feel like I am loved and I have a place to love deeply. That to me is happiness.

Women need to attack those negative voices they have in their head.

I never stop being a mother and I never stop being an artist. You understand? Which is probably why my kids are so creative, because it’s not separated.

I think that old school style of 'I'm your parent and I'm greater than you' doesn't work. What I establish with my children is a partnership.

I've always told Will, 'You can do whatever you want as long as you can look at yourself in the mirror and be okay.' Because at the end of the day, Will is his own man. I'm here as his partner, but he is his own man. He has to decide who he wants to be, and that's not for me to do for him. Or vice versa.

Worry about being respected, never worry about being liked because that's the trap.
