I don't know my armpit from my elbow in Los Angeles.

I tried to hostess... but they fired me after four days because I couldn't figure out how seating plans worked.

I had an unorthodox high-school experience; I shifted around to different schools. When I got to college and met Larry Sacharow, who ran the theatre department [at Fordham University in NYC], he was the first person to say ‘I believe in you.’ At that point, I just needed someone to say ‘I see you, I get you, let’s go.’ It’s an amazing thing to borrow someone else’s confidence in you; it can change your life.

I try to come at fitness and nutrition from a perspective of gentleness and what will make me feel good afterwards. I try to stay out of the mindset of needing to fix myself. I do whatever seems fun to me.

So often, we're expected to maintain some sort of standard - that won't get you where you need to go.

"The Notebook" is one of my favorite love stories.

I'm the girl who will show up in jeans no matter what - but the jeans can get fancier and fancier.
