Any actor will tell you that you go where the work is, especially when you have children.

I went to an all-girls private school, where we played field hockey and lacrosse.

Exercise is about being grateful for the body you have and sustaining the life you have.

I think 'Soul Food' had the biggest impact on me because that's where I was really able to shine as an actress and because I also met my husband there, and that was a huge turning point in my personal life. So, that show will stick with me forever and ever and ever.

Forty-years-old these days is the beginning of people's lives. I've found myself, I'm confident, I'm mature, I've been through some stuff, I'm ready to write my book.

I'm really into nutrition from the inside out.

My husband and I are loyal to our community and very approachable, even though we're kind of mainstream.
