Every show, every audience is different, and I just love leaving the venue feeling like we all know each other a little bit better.

I see who I want to be, in my daughter's eyes.

I do yoga, lunges, crunches, things like that for 40 minutes twice a week. For cardio I usually do the elliptical, treadmill or walking.

That's the hardest thing about being a mom. You want to be cool, and you want them to like you all the time, but you can't always have that. You're gonna have times where you have to say no, and you won't be the most popular person in the house.
