Having a child changes everything. All of a sudden you have so much to lose, so much to live for.

I am proud to be a role model for my viewers. I am finding out that helping victims is as or more rewarding the all the awards I win.

My Dad taught me that good health is all about living in gratitude.

I say to everybody, 'Adoption is not for the faint of heart.'

When my body is strong, I feel stronger inside. I feel more capable of handling emotional situations. Usually I'm more of a inside-out person, but this was a great case of me from the outside in.

By coming forward and sharing your story, you don't know the countless lives you change.

Your body is not who you are. I don't think women should label themselves based on the way they look. What about defining yourself by a different kind of measurement? What about your heart, your soul, your compassion, your generosity, your strength and your power? There are so many other things to focus on besides your waistline.
