Adoption was a bumpy ride - very bumpy. But, God, was it worth the fight.

It's a life's journey of finding ourselves, finding our power, and living for yourself, not for everyone else.

As an actress, there were so many months, years even, when I didn't get work, when I wanted to quit.

Life begins at 40, and I'm living proof.

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

I'm a water person; water heals.

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