Be kind to yourself and to others. Treat others the way you would want to be treated. I was told that every day of my childhood.

No matter what, I find that surrendering is essential.

I'm inspired by it all - the good and the not so good - because every experience is an opportunity for me to learn, grow, and become the best version of myself.

I actually have a lot of guilty pleasures.

Everybody remembers what it's like to be in high school. We really never leave those years behind.

I have a couple of what I call "buttons" - fears or anxieties that when tweaked can cause me to be vulnerable. Fear of failure, not being good enough, and abandonment are my main buttons. However, they have diminished greatly over the years as I have really confronted those fears in order to work through them.

My biggest vulnerability now is my son, Hudson. I am often plagued with fear: Is he ok? Is he safe? I'm in the process of trying to work through this fear. It's a hard one.
