acting world i-realized
Sometime in my second year at Brown [University], I took an acting class. And the lightbulb went off for me. I fell in love with it. I realized that everything I was afraid of about myself, all my fears, could be used in that world.
hair people embrace
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.
needs need-a-change seeing
We as women need to change our gaze from HOW WE ARE 'SEEN' to HOW WE ARE 'SEEING'.
moments okay hardest
In some of the darkest and hardest moments, there is always a part of me that is okay. And I can always access that part of me.
gratitude kindness joy
I want to be awake. I want to choose kindness, live & let live. I want joy, gratitude, and peace today.
hair ponytails braids
When I'm not working, I spend a lot of time on my hair. When it's time for my hair to get some rest, I either wear it in a ponytail, bun or my favorite 'milkmaid' braid.
able way asks
There is a way to be a woman, ask for what we deserve and be able to negotiate.
covered-up legs shows
If I'm going to show cleavage or chest then I don't show leg. I show one thing. If I show leg then everything else is covered up.
indulgence
There are a ton of foods that are great for you, that's like an indulgence.
empowered stories
I'm always touched by people's different stories of who they are and why they made the choices that they made. I feel so empowered by the story behind the person.
I am a connoisseur of products. I check out everything, I try everything.
care fan freckles fresh general natural skin wear
It is important to me to take care of my skin. In general I don't like to wear foundation; I'm not a fan of the look. I like my skin fresh and natural enough so my freckles show through.
ball obsessed ruin
I loved being a redhead! I always wanted to try it. I was obsessed with Lucille Ball growing up. I really wanted to try it but I always thought that doing it would ruin my hair.
I used to think 40 was old. Now I think, 'Hey, 40's hot!'
