Love is when I smile and breathe deeply down to my toes. I've given myself a gift of caring for myself and learned a new way to look at my issues. And I'm lying in some fresh sheets looking out the window at some visual beauty... a mountain, an ocean, a stream, a forest. A lovely man lying next to me or my babies sleeping.

By the second tour I had rice cakes and hummus with me, and I was jumping rope in my room.

The men were all scumbags, but the whole point of the film is to show the development of that. Each guy is going in there to have a good time. By and large, these men are career men, family men, and you just see the deterioration of them.

Be kind. It's very needed to be respectful to all.

My son always makes me feel vulnerable.

To me, it was about finding new opportunities. I know my voice touches people. It has for years. I can't give that up.

And I'm also looking for a comeback record and it has to touch a lot of people.
