Let your inner queen’s voice come through loud and clear. Be strong, be authentic, be you, and you’ll do her proud.

I’m as involved as I can be. Whenever I’m asked to do something, I always tend to show up.

If I ran into a 19-year-old version of myself, I’d just tell her to live, full out. I might also tell her to go ahead and have a few babies and not worry about the timing of it.

I didn’t know I had it in me. There’s more to all of us than we realize. Life is so much bigger, grander, higher, and wider than we allow ourselves to think. We’re capable of so much more than we allow ourselves to believe.
