You know, you're only as happy as your least happy child. So if your kids aren't okay, you're not good.

I wasn't pretty enough to be the pretty girl and I wasn't unattract­ive enough to be the dorky girl.

I don't like the word 'calculated' because it sounds pejorative. Intentional. Intentional is better, I think. Wild in passion and intentional in expression.

One part of wisdom is knowing what you don't need anymore and letting it go.

An exercise outfit helps because it sets this time apart from the rest of your day and makes it matter more.

We grow up being told, "Be a good girl." When you're told to be good, you have to get rid of whatever is bad.

You don't have to have a man! Masturbation is especially useful for older women, because men die sooner than we do. And so: Use it or lose it. It's not critical that every woman wants to stay juiced up. But if they do, it's perfectly fine. It's a lot easier to feel sexy and perform safely when you're flexible and have a certain amount of strength left. If you keep moving - walking, staying strong, doing squats - then having sex is both safer and more pleasurable, and you feel more empowered and better about yourself.
