My biggest regret is putting my body through fad diets: Atkins, cleanses, the hCG diet.

I don't believe in depriving yourself of things you want.

When I turned 30, due to my father's heart history and my family genetics, I vowed to start seeing a cardiologist every year and just really be proactive and take my own heart health into my own hands.

My husband and I are building a 'green' house in Santa Ynez Valley. We bought 15 acres and we're going to build a house that's green from the ground up.

My mom really instilled in me that I'm beautiful and I can do anything, and I echo that now with my own girls.

The craziest thing I did to get a guy to notice me was going out with his best friend. It worked - he did notice me - but I don't recommend it.

It's never too late to take your heart health seriously and make it a priority.
