“‘You know what? It ain’t that serious.’ My business partner told me that when I was going through a tough time and dramatizing everything in my life. Hearing it zapped me back to reality and wiped my worries away. Now when things get too intense, I remember that I’m alive, I’m healthy and life goes on—it ain’t that serious.” Oprah.com

“‘Fear only exists from between your two ears.’ It’s so true—whether you’re afraid of confronting someone or going after a new job, the only thing really stopping you is you. So forget the excuses, get off your butt and go do it!” Oprah.com

“You are alone in reality. You are alone in life and, it’s a beautiful place to be IF you make peace with yourself. If you have a good relationship with yourself, there’s so much to find. We have so many possibilities. We don’t actually spend enough time with ourselves and, many times, we fall into the trap to do things so that other people have a perception of who we are. But, the… mystery of life to me is, the relationship with ‘you and you. Conviction is the place where, even if you made a mistake, mistakes are sometimes the greatest gifts that you can have.” Oprah Interview, 2018

“It can be really challenging in today’s world for anyone- especially girls and women-to feel good about their bodies. No matter how things look from the outside, we can all be super critical of ourselves… My job at those moments is to tell myself the truth. Am I taking care of myself in a healthy way? Am I respecting myself and being responsible? And over and over, I answer yes to that question. I remind myself to be kind to myself, and as slightly ridiculous as it may sound, to treat myself in the same gentle way I’d want to treat a daughter, it really helps.” Seventeen Magazine

“We are all warriors in our own way, but it’s up to you whether you decide to fight or sit idly, whether you’re a part of the right cause or not. And don’t just follow everything that comes p on your phone or computer screen. Look up to something honest, strong, brave, loving and worthwhile.” Teen Vogue Magazine
