My dad encouraged us to fail. Growing up, he would ask us what we failed at that week. If we didn't have something, he would be disappointed. It changed my mindset at an early age that failure is not the outcome, failure is not trying. Don't be afraid to fail.

We don't have the luxury of time. We spend more because of how we live, but it's important to be with our family and friends.

I think my story says that, when women are given the chance and the opportunity, that we can achieve a lot. We deliver.

When something I can't control happens, I ask myself : where is the hidden gift, where is the positive in this?

I think failure is nothing more than life's way of nudging you that you are off course.

Everything in our society is so purposeful.

I'd never worked in fashion or retail. I just needed an undergarment that didn't exist.
