“Not everyone is going to be kind, and not everyone is going to be respectful on social media. Sometimes those comments can get into the psyche, but I am not going to go crazy because of some keyboard warrior somewhere. That doesn’t stop me wanting to be who I am or say what I think or do the things I do. I workout and I aim for health- I don’t aim to be skinny. I’m over that sort of pressure. I just want to feel good. Yoga helps me de-stress, and meditation has helped me identify things that I need to heal from. That has made me a much happier and more confident person. I’m very proud of my journey, I’m just being myself, and that’s all I can try to do.” People Magazine

“I grew up really poor. There was a point when we lived in a tent for a year. Then we lived in motels. I went to school from motels. I spent the most time in a small trailer with my six brothers and sisters. I always looked at acting as therapy, but I was also driven by wanting more for myself and my family. I just bought my parents a beautiful home.” Cosmopolitan Magazine

“It’s crazy how hard we girls are on ourselves about the way we look. I feel responsibility to my followers to be a role model. I want so badly for them to know their worth as human beings.” GL

“I don’t like to talk about negative things unless I can bring light to it in some way,” Summer says, “Life is too short to get caught up in negativity.” GL
Angelina Jolie
“I often tell my daughters that the most important thing they can do is to develop their minds. You can always put on a pretty dress, but it doesn’t matter what you wear on the outside if your mind isn’t strong.”
Gwyneth Paltrow
“I’ve always felt so funny about my looks. I think that it’s very rare to think that you’re a beautiful person, and so I feel like every other woman- like, I don’t see that when I look in the mirror.”
Tyra Banks
“People didn’t know I was going home at night crying my eyes out because a woman I was looking up to seemed like she was just didn’t want me to be there.”
Willow Smith
Cutting, she says now, provided “a physical release of all this intangible pain that’s happening in your heart and in your mind.” But as she read about both science and spirituality, she says, “I was like, ‘This is pointless- my body is my temple,’ and I completely stopped. It seemed literally psychotic after a certain point because I learned to see myself as worthy.” People Magazine
Celine Dion
“Having problems with my teeth, [being] very, very skinny, being bullied at school, I can go on and on.”
Guy Fieri
“I’ve always lived in the realm of ‘You can do anything you want if you put your mind to it.'” People Magazine
