“It's not really a big fight to get that time to run. When you want something, then you go get it.”
“You get to show that, sometimes, it's not too late to do what many might've done decades before.”
“You get to choose to do what's important.”
“That's where I want to be. Do your dream job and stay in Atlanta. Check and check!”
“Everyday I meet folks who show me how to look at challenges differently.”
“I think most people live in a space where they are looking for meaning in life and good in the world and that is not necessarily reflected in straight news coverage right now.”
“Talking doom and gloom all day no longer fit who I was as a person.”

“Times might be tough, your head and thoughts might be spinning, but I find it's physically impossible to do that spiral thing when your mind is focused on giving and creating opportunity.”
“It's CNN's bigger problem that CNN wants to deny reality. I, too, used to drink the Kool-Aid that it was a top journalism operation that reports without bias. Now that I'm outside the walls of traditional media, I know there is no such thing.”

“If I could send my daughter's first mother a card, I would write, 'Thank you for sharing this incredible journey with me. Together we have raised one awesome girl!'”
“For people who don't love running, they don't understand - but I never feel like anyone is putting a gun to my head to go out for a run. I feel like a kid going out to play - that feeling of when you had a bike as a kid and you'd go out and just ride and be free and have fun.”
“If you're really invested in feeling bad about the world, there are a lot of media outlets out there that you can turn to.”
“When my husband tells our daughter, 'You get that trait from Mom,' she lights up with pride. We all know who he's talking about. And it's not me. I'm fine with this.”
“My two must-haves are my cell phone and my MacBook Pro laptop, which allows me to update my Web site from wherever I am, whether I'm in Africa or in Sun Valley skiing.”
