Being able to engage my creativity in a way that makes a difference inspires me more than anything.

More times than not, my pain stems from an area in which I've been least authentic. The second I identify the source - the area of my inauthenticity - I begin to feel better. This allows me to take complete responsibility for my emotional discomfort, and the awareness enables me to move beyond the blockage. I become energetically unstuck, allowing the pain to pass through me.

My goal in life is to bring to the screen really believable depictions that make you think, "Damn, I have to look within myself."

I'd like to change the depictions of life, love, and adventure under what's known as the typical, overused backdrop of Hollywood.

I learned early in life that laughter is a great way to diffuse and uncomfortable situation, so I began to use that as a tool, throughout my life.

If you are courageous enough to be still, you are a step closer to becoming empowered.

An unresolved past erodes beauty in the present.
