I couldn't figure out what to wear under my clothes. The body shapers were too thick at the time.

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

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

Failures are life's way of nudging you and letting you know you are off course. Trying new things and not being afraid to fail along the way are more important than what you learn in school.

I feel that women have been neglected, unnecessarily neglected and mistreated personally by the fashion industry and shapewear in that entire category was a definite place that we were neglected.

The thing about fashion - it's like ducks going quack, quack quack. It's being dictated from above, and it just makes me want to rebel against it.

With every obstacle that has happened to me in my life, my brain immediately says, ‘Where is the hidden blessing?’ In starting a business and growing a business, every day is learning how to manage obstacles.
