Don't apologize for asking for what you deserve.
We have to stop judging people who are struggling with their weight.
On 'Morning Joe' I can say what I think, be my sometimes unorthodox self, have fun, yet be serious as well.
Women play into each other's weaknesses.
There's always more money to be made.
A bad boyfriend is someone you give everything to - you live with him, cook for him, sleep with him - thinking he is going to marry you and then he doesn't. When you are giving your all to a job and not getting credit, your job is a bad boyfriend.
Often I feel like I can run forever. If someone told me I had to run for 10 hours, I probably could.
I try my best to be extremely disciplined about my diet.
I am not afraid to say my relationship with my man is important, even vital, to who I am as a person.
My family was always active, and our thing was family walks. Not walks around the block, but more like eight-mile hikes up mountains.
I'd been fired by CBS News in a semipublic way, and as the months went by, there was a perception that I was damaged goods.
A fundamental lesson on being fired: Never lie about it. People will know what you're saying is a cover-up for how you really feel - embarrassed, discouraged, and afraid.
If we can't quantify and communicate our value with confidence, the achievements of the tremendous women before us will have all been for nothing.
My salary situation at 'Morning Joe' wasn't right. I made five attempts to fix it, then realized I'd made the same mistake every time: I apologised for asking.
