Don't try to be perfect. Life isn't; no one is. Use mistakes and mishaps as opportunities to grow tolerance and to teach. There is such a thing as happy accidents. And love, love, love and listen, listen, listen.

I was consumed with being a mom. I didn't think beyond that.

I'm a woman who carries around all these layers of fear and vulnerability.
