I don’t really ever live my life in fear. I really live my life in gratitude and feeling positive for the most part.

Feelings Gratitude Life Living
Stuffed deer heads on walls are bad enough, but it’s worse when you see them wearing dark glasses, having streamers around their necks and a hat on their antlers. Because then you know they were enjoying themselves at a party when they were shot.

Funny Party Streamers Wall
The world is full of a lot of fear and a lot of negativity, and a lot of judgment. I just think people need to start shifting into joy and happiness. As corny as it sounds, we need to make a shift.

Fear Inspirational Thinking
You have to have funny faces and words, you can’t just have words. It is a powerful thing, and I think that’s why it’s hard for people to imagine that women can do that, be that powerful.

Funny Humor Powerful
This is my real secret to being a joyful person: I make my life easy. I spend more time being grateful for what I have instead of focusing on what isn’t working. I no longer believe that people have to do things my way and that I have to be perfect.

Believe Grateful Real
It would be horrible to live with someone who didn’t like the same things you like.

We all feel like idiots at one time or another. Even if we feel we’re cool 98 percent of the time, that 2-percent doofus is poised to take over our bodies without any warning.

Ironic Mistake Warning
I hope I make people feel better. I hope I take people out of their situations a little bit and make them happier. That’s really why I do what I do.

I get bored easily, so I need to do a lot. I’ve started a record label, so I get to nurture new talent and talk about music, which is a passion of mine. I’ve written another book. And I get to come to work and do the TV show, which is always really fun.

Book Fun Passion Talk
I think I let go of the need for approval. It certainly feels good when you get it, but I used to be more desperate for it. Once I felt better inside about myself… I could do everything based on how I want to do things.

…we should be grateful for them because without our family-the ancestors we descend from, the cousins we see once a year, the loves our lives we see every day-life is pretty boring.

I learned compassion from being discriminated against. Everything bad that’s ever happened to me has taught me compassion.

I just want to find somebody special, somebody that I click with.

Clicks Somebody Special Want
I had everything I’d hoped for, but I wasn’t being myself. So I decided to be honest about who I was. It was strange: The people who loved me for being funny suddenly didn’t like me for being… me.

What goes up must come down, which is why I don’t wear tube tops.
