mentor looks speak
Seek women mentors. If you're a businesswoman, look at the TEDx conferences. There's a lot of businesswomen that speak on there. I find them extremely inspiring.
children growing-up school
Our youth deserve the opportunity to complete their high school and college education, free of early parenthood. Their future children deserve the opportunity to grow up in financially and emotionally stable homes. Our communities benefit from healthy, productive, well-prepared young people.
father character wrath
My childhood was influenced by the roles my father played in his movies. Whether Abraham Lincoln or Tom Joad in the 'Grapes of Wrath,' his characters communicated certain values which I try to carry with me to this day.
hurt yoga people
I've done four videos for older people under my new brand, Prime Time, and the missing link was yoga. I'm aiming it for older people - people who have never worked out or who are recovering from a surgery and have to start slow. It's easy, you can't get hurt, it's very doable, and I've done it in ten-minute segments.
flesh arms vain
I'm vain. My arms are thin, but I'm vain about loose flesh. And so I'm careful that what I wear will show off my best parts, which are my waist and my butt.
addiction able damage
I was in my mid-40s. I was a bulimic, and I realized if I continue with this addiction of mine, I will not be able to continue doing my life. The older you get the more damage it does; it takes longer to recover from a binge. And it was very hard.
perfect childhood trying
I spent a good deal of time going back over my childhood, my midlife, to try to understand who I was. We're supposed to be complete and whole, and you can't be whole if you're trying to be perfect. Doing a life review helped me get over the disease to please.
soldier able harness
The bravest soldiers aren't unafraid, but they're the ones who are able to harness their fear on behalf of courage.
dog coffee doors
Rituals are important. I get up. I take the dogs on a walk around to the front and then I pick up the papers. Then I walk around to the front door, then me and the two dogs come in the house and I give them treats. I make coffee. It's the regularity of these kinds of rituals that I find deeply satisfying.
age ageing forgiven
Women are not forgiven for ageing
thinking two work-out
When you think you can't do any more repetitions, do two more.
women memorable wrinkles
Women are not forgiven for aging. Robert Redford's lines of distinction are my old-age wrinkles.
writing thinking use
Through therapy and a lot of thinking and writing my memoirs, I've been able to use my life as a lesson.
mistake lying kids
Telling lies and showing off to get attention are mistakes I made that I don't want my kids to make.
