I'm thankful I grew up the way I did. It made me a hard worker and insightful to other people's lives.

I always have one foot in the street, so I know not everyone wants to dress like the women they see in music videos.

I'm always trying to think of ways to provide jobs and money through what I'm already doing. Charity can be overwhelming, and some people think you have to be Bill Gates to really make a difference momentarily or you have to be Mother Theresa and give up Western life, but you can just incorporate it into your everyday life.

When I look at pictures when I was younger, I do the quintessential cringe.

My biggest influences are strong, creative women that chart their own path, lead their own lives and drive the course of history.

The beautiful 1940s women were a strong influence for me.

I worry that my daughters are too taken care of.
