One of the photographers was like, "Can you stop talking and try to look sexy for a minute?"

I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me.

I want to be awake. I want to choose kindness, live & let live. I want joy, gratitude, and peace today.

It was when I realized I needed to stop trying to be somebody else and be myself, that I actually started to own, accept and love what I had.

Just embrace your hair! I really feel like I am not an advocate for people doing what I do. I'm an advocate for people discovering and finding what works for them.

No one is alone during tribulations - there's always someone else thinking, rejoicing or suffering in the same way. This thought gives us strength to face the challenge that lies in front of us.

The Eighties proved we don't need liberals.

Now I am obsessed with collecting Platypus paraphernalia.
