I believe the future will reflect different body types, ethnicities, cultures and sexual orientations. I've been working with a lot of young artists who really project an androgynous and inclusive approach to the world. I'm very inspired by that.

Any time you turn off and let someone else make any artistic decision for you, you make a mistake.

I'm aware of - and embrace - my masculine energy. Sometimes I have too much yang.

I just think motherhood made me better, I think it rejuvenates you as a person, mind, body and spirit, and I think every woman is different.

I'm not into branding - I'm trying to be organic to who I am on every level. I do really connect to being a part of the working class. Those are my roots. My family [consists of] farmers from Portugal, builders, housekeepers and stonemasons.

When you follow your heart, you always win and it feels so good.

When you're scrambling to fill the void in your life and you feel like you're drowning... we all yearn to hear that one friend's voice, say: "You're going to get through this."
