I want to be contributing and working with people that I like and love, and this was the perfect combination.

Refuse to let your circumstances make you bitter. Do what you must to make them better.

I love storytelling. I love stories, and I love the way in which we connect through stories.

There's just something about women and shoes, it's the luxury, it's the femininity and it's the attention to detail. You can put a lot of work into your dress but if you have the right shoe and bag then you feel good.

I still feel vibrant and alive that way. I'm in a marriage where we put an enormous amount into our marriage. I always say, there's me, there's my husband, and then there's the "us," the us that we create. That's what we really take care of. We never, ever take it for granted. We do everything we can to be together, not to be separated for periods of time. We're just a very, very tight family unit, and we're really kind to each other. I think it's so underrated; people don't appreciate the necessity of that in society now.

Breathe and don't try to be perfect.

Now, after divorce with Tom Cruise, I can wear heels.
