Jeannie Mai

“I always say, men's ankles are kind of like men's version of cleavage. That's what I think, because it's sexy. It shows, like, you dare to go there.”

“I have this bookmark with glued-on macaroni. I made it in the fourth grade while in detention for giving a girl a tattoo using two rocks rubbed together and a stick.”

“Think about the blouse you want to wear for that big meeting with your boss, or the skirt you want to reserve for a client dinner. Once you've pinpointed the item that you'll feel good in, the other pieces will fall into place.”

“I have a childlike spirit.”

“There's a difference between a job and purpose. If I did my job without purpose, I wouldn't have the intention to put things out there that should be heard. But I have a purpose.”

“I think we as women go too far with bags that are super-weighted and I have found that when you give yourself that room to stuff things in you will do it.”

“I was the person who had a 10 lb baby on my arm called my purse, and now that I have a crossover bag it's stupid. I realize I need my wallet, my phone and my lip gloss - that's it.”

“I'm Asian. Anything Boba please.”

“Embracing my origin has made me the confident and grateful person I am.”

“The best part of a white pant is the bump of great booty this color can give.”

“If there were only one place to eat, I would pick anywhere in Northern Vietnam where you get the French and Vietnamese culinary fusion.”

“However, I've learned in my life that life is about living authentically. And for me, the best moments as I look back in my life, that I became the best versions of Jeannie that I'm proud of, was when I was honest with myself.”

“I speak Vietnamese and conversational Spanish.”

“Holey Moley' is the funnest, craziest, most extreme miniature golf series you will ever experience. It was insane. If you've ever played miniature golf, this is unlike everything you've experienced.”

“In L.A. there's diet trends, there's the new nip and tuck people are doing, the new person who is in town you never saw before.”

“There are several different traits that make up a person's identity. For me, being Vietnamese American is the entirety of who I am.”

“I love how it feels to go into the gym, crank all my favorite music and literally sweat out all of the things that stress me out.”

“I realized that I had an eating disorder in which I controlled myself to a point that I would not let myself enjoy what I wanted to eat or eat what I needed to eat, all to stay a certain size.”

“Selling the commodity of humans has to be the biggest business out there, as it is the most lucrative. I cannot go to sleep at night, unless I know that I am using all of my platforms to fight human trafficking.”

“I used to be a not-healthy 130 lb. girl, all in my stomach, all in my arms so I lost the weight and I stayed there then I became a control freak about the way I was eating and it just became the norm.”
