I'm just always making things that are personal but hopefully also inspiring, and share not just my story, but other people's stories.

Abandon anything about your life and habits that might be holding you back

To be an author, and an executive producer, and a host, and I don't even know, I mean I actually have a resume now, which is pretty cool.

I guess it has to be healthy, you have to be honest with yourself and I think that's when ego is okay.

Many people are too lazy to go out, can't afford to, or are too swamped. If you can manage your workload and get out for lunch, more power to you. You're at the wrong employer if you find yourself penalized for something so human.

You're investing in a different part of your life that is really important. It's not as important when you're a kid and you don't require sleep, and you don't get hung over, and you can fire on all cylinders. At 32 I don't consider myself old by any means, but you just find yourself in a place where you can't do everything the way you once did, and you have to take time to reflect and I think that's really important, because you get to appreciate what you have, and to enjoy it.

What do you do when you’re living in a hut for $500 a month and subsisting on Boston Market and Subway? You just keep doing what you’re doing.
