Our mission began with finding solutions for families, especially busy moms.

I believe there are three keys to success. For me it is keeping my priorities in order: It's my faith and my family, and then the business.

It's important to find one that complements your body and not try to fit into something that doesn't work.

I've learned so many things and a lot of things I've learned the hard way. I look at failure as education in that respect I'm very well educated.

I work with wonderful people who support me. And, my beliefs are that the business needs to serve the family rather than the family serve the business.

The mission statement of my company, Kathy Ireland Worldwide, is to find solutions for families, especially busy moms. I'm reaching out to busy moms because that's what I am. That's what I know, and I know this woman has been underserved.

Modeling was another job like some of the other ones I had. Working as a cashier, I delivered newspapers, I worked in a retirement home feeding elderly people. . . so I never stopped and thought about, boy, I'm a successful model.
