When you're going to do whatever you're going to do, you have to get your, put your mind into it.

Growing up, I was the preferred hairstylist for all of my friends.

Life is full of trials and tribulations. It's dramatic when you don't treat people right when you're in the tribulations, but I know now how to get out of it. You have to make a decision to say 'No more', and then you know what to do when the trials happen.

There's not enough time to be disrespecting... Life is too short.

It hurts when you have to smile and you don't want to smile, but the best thing to do is to smile.

I can tell you I didn't feel good when I could not articulate properly. Getting my GED was important and I want other women to feel that.

I had to learn how to trust my gut. Trust what I know to be right... not right, but not waver on who I am. Know who I am, know what I want, and know it. Not waver on it and be secure in that. And I still struggle with it. But I really... I can't be moved. You can't move me, and that all comes with loving myself, and I'm like my best buddy.
