“Well, my mom was an Olympian, so we have some good genes on that front.”

A scale is only in balance for a brief second. Inevitably the pendulum swings. It’s impossible to maintain.

Modeling was not an endgame for me. I didn’t particularly enjoy the act of it.

New media is an amazing form of direct marketing in that you really get a sense of who your customer is, and you also get to know those people who may not be your customers yet but are aspirational and are hoping to be.

Accessories are crucial. A great bag and a piece of statement jewelry are the fastest way to elevate an otherwise understated look.

There are enough stories about my family. We have all been in the public eye.

Acting is just a way of making a living, the family is life.

The greatest measure of a man is the health and happiness of his family.

My ultimate life dream project is my kids. My family.

All family life is organized around the most damaged person in it.

I think that in any group activity – whether it be business, sports, or family – there has to be leadership or it won’t be successful.

Even in times of isolation, the human family will never be alone!

You never appreciate your parents until you are one.

I’m going to enjoy every little tiny moment with my family cause when crunch time comes it gets really lonely.
