crave days good steak
I listen to my body. Some days all I want is a good steak and others, I crave veggies and quinoa.
journey people sick
Someone asked me recently, "Do you get sick of people asking you about your hair?" And the reason I don't is because I actually feel like you could chronicle my journey of self-acceptance through my journey with my hair. It's a badge of something bigger.
mom car people
My mom would leave her job, and there would be throngs of people screaming and banging on our car. I come from a very private family, but I was born into a public family.
scary acting exciting
And it [acting] was exciting to me. And scary.
curious thinker
I've always been a curious thinker. And now, as an adult, I can articulate it.
fun
Somehow [Kenya Bariss] has figured out how to explore these very weighty, sticky, sharp topics, and still be funny and not make fun of the topic.
pondering whole-life
Why am I beating my hair up? Because I want it to look like something that it isn't? These are questions that I've been pondering my whole life.
sexy trying photographer
One of the photographers was like, "Can you stop talking and try to look sexy for a minute?"
girlfriend mean friendly
[Black-ish creator] Kenya Bariss wrote on Girlfriends. We've been friendly since then. He sent me [the pilot] and said, "I wrote it for you." But I know what that means in this industry.
husband eye reflection
This woman [Bow] was not simply a reflection of who her husband was. She was her own whole self. And even if we weren't exploring life through her eyes, when we did see her it was clear that she had a full life.
mom moving college
After college, I shot a pilot for a show on Lifetime, which was basically House of Style for a TV lover. I think I got paid $1,500, and I was like, "Mom, I'm moving out! I made it!" I did two seasons of that, but I felt like a talking head and wanted to do more.
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.
