BROOKE SHIELDS

“Growing up under such scrutiny led me to feel insecure about my looks. When I was younger, I never loved being in a swimsuit because I picked apart the way I looked in them. It took me years to separate the opinions of others from my own.” People Magazine

“We’re both human beings. It’s not all peachy and rosy. We don’t work to be in love, but sometimes we don’t get along. I think you’ve got to really like the person you are with, and he has to be the one you want to hang out with more than anybody else.” People Magazine

“A sense of humor is more important than anything you see in the mirror, in fact I would advocate for looking at yourself less, especially given what kids are up against with social media today.” People Magazine

AMY POEHLER

“When the demon starts to slither my way and say bad stuff about me I turn around and say, ‘Hey. Cool it, Amy is my friend. Don’t talk about her like that.’ Sticking up for ourselves in the same way we would one of our friends is a hard but satisfying thing to do. Sometimes it works.” Smooth

SARAH HYLAND

“Don’t be afraid to have your own opinion. Don’t take no for an answer. Fight. Because people try to bring you down, and people try to get in the way of your dreams. But if you set your mind to something, you can accomplish that – and then some.” Betty Magazine

ALEX MOLINA

“I grew up in a very abusive home. My mother could never show affection towards us. When I was young and I first was homeless my escape was always school. For me, from an early age, I knew that what was going to take me out of my homelessness was my education. I got a degree in sociology and with that I wanted to help people. I feel that’s my calling… that’s my purpose in life. I got hired at Covenant House and became a case manager. That’s a full-circle moment right there for me. I often have youth look at me and say, ‘you don’t know what it’s like to live herE.’ I look at them in the eye and tell them I slept in these hallways. I slept in those bunk beds and I made it to college and I made something of myself and now I’m here giving back to you guys. So… I do know.” Soul Sundays with Oprah
