My purpose is to refuel, refresh and rejuvenate moms.

I'm hosting weekend retreats all over America. It is like a 24-hour slumber party for moms. We laugh, eat, play games, get massages, win prizes, talk about parenting and even cry a bit.

Raise children who do the right things for the right reasons.

There's something about childhood friends that you just can't replace.

One principal reason why men are so often useless is that they neglect their own profession or calling, and divide and shift their attention among a multitude of objects and pursuits.

I shoot a lot of video, first of all, whatever I think is interesting, just my travels; hard to say why. If something looks good, I take a picture or try to shoot it.

I was a punk before it got its name. I had that hairstyle and purple lipstick.

It's a Barnum and Bailey world, Just as phony as it can be...
