There's a book called The Women's Room by Marilyn French that was a really big part of my personal feminist awakening growing up that I read.

That's my big fear, and not enjoying things as much as I could and realizing actually how awesome life is right now.

One thing that I would like to do that I've seen them not do that well is take women all through the process of the postpartum period in a more meaningful way. That would be my agenda.

I like the way [Marcus Lemonis] thinks. He's made me think about things in a different way. He's made me want to support small businesses in a very real way, seeing what these small-business owners go through and the struggle it is and the courage it takes to put your heart and money behind things at a 24-hour job. I think I relate to that as an actress and a writer and someone who works freelance, in many ways. It never ends, you never clock out. You've always got to keep things moving.

I don't know where it's come from, but after many years of many different products, I feel like I can speak as an authority on a lot of them.

Your best friendships are with people who share your world view.

I love being a mom. Being a mother is my favorite thing ever.
