My mom and I had the same vision, and we want the same things. We would always make a goal list every year.

Remember, people only rain on your parade because they're jealous of your sun and tired of their shade.

If I don't like something that's going on in my life, I change it. And I don't sit and complain about it for a year.

I've made mistakes in my life for sure.

Embrace your curves and who you are. I feel proud if young girls look up to me and say, "I'm curvy, and I'm proud of it now".

Sometimes you've got to #‎ believe in someone else's belief in you until your #‎ belief kicks in.

This is my chance to get out there and appease the fans of my music as well as show people that I do do standup comedy because a lot of people don't know that's where I started.

In the first movement alone, I took note of six pregnancies and at least four miscarriages.
