I want to continue to encourage as many people as I can to open their hearts to life, because if I know anything for sure, it's that opening my own heart is what has brought me my greatest success and joy.

I love hearing stories, telling stories, sharing stories. I've shared 37,000 on the Oprah show! Every day I was like the town crier.

If I lost control of the business I'd lose myself - or at least the ability to be myself. Owning myself is a way to be myself.

One of the truths I most deeply believe is that everything in life - everything - is energy. Within every one of us is the energy that makes the sun rise every day and keeps the planets aligned. It's there, already inside of you, waiting for you to know it. And when you tap in with that connection, that source, that miraculous energy, what I know for sure is that the universe rises up to meet you in unimaginable ways and help you create the life that you want.

When you're passionate about your work, it feels like you would do it even if no one were paying you.

I have a lot of things to prove to myself. One is that I can live my life fearlessly.

I believe that you tend to create your own blessings. You have to prepare yourself so that when opportunity comes, you're ready.
