“I want to just be a normal mom.”

“I think most people see me as a glamorous type of person, and at the end of the day, I'm more just a low-key mom.”

“We spend some days just driving around looking for houses that we like that might be for sale.”

“Everyone's had a setback, but it's how you move forward and what you do with your future, that's what matters.”

“I love to fix up a house, but I also love to help people. I feel like that's my calling.”

“I eat five small meals a day that usually consist of overnight oats for breakfast, a green juice for a snack, salad with a protein for lunch, granola bar as a snack and then a healthy dinner of chicken or salmon and veggies, tacos or vegan chili.”

“After working on redesigning so many homes and using whatever furniture I could find, I am so excited to be designing my own collection of home furnishings that are stylish at a great price.”

“I don't know if it's just me getting older, but things that used to bother me, or that I used to take personally, or maybe since going through a public divorce. I just like, really, it takes a lot to bother me nowadays.”

“It's fun to see the house-hunting process, and what gets you a house on the water versus inland.”

“Babies are wonderful.”

“Social media is a weird thing. People have their keyboard and no face... they can say whatever they want.”

“Ant has been so supportive. He's very grounded. As he entered my world, there's so many false stories spinning out there and he's never said one word to me about any of it.”

“All I would do is, like, stick on these lash extensions and not even put mascara on and put on a little powder. That was my go-to - it took about five minutes.”

“I want to show my children the importance of donating our time and energy to help those in need.”

“I don't eat fast food, I don't eat fried food, and I eat tons of fruits and vegetables.”

“I don't eat anything processed.”

“Everyone's lifestyle is different.”

“I love a good book and a glass of wine. It's like heaven.”

“The day Tarek and I officially started dating, which was October 9, 2006, we moved in together.”

“Nutrition is very important to me for both my own health and wellness, but also for my children.”
