“In Los Angeles, I drive a hybrid and live in a very simple home. Anything you do from carrying a canteen of water to starting a recycling program in your office makes a difference. Reusing what you already have has always been green - from clothes to boxes to glass jars from the supermarket.”

“I really enjoy working in television and the evolution of a character over time.”

“Keep looking up! I learn from the past, dream about the future and look up. There's nothing like a beautiful sunset to end a healthy day.”

“Working on script development, casting, editing, and music is incredibly inspiring to me, and it's wonderful to see something you love come to life.”

“My dad is an engineer and works on green energy, so I'm very aware of what it takes to keep a modern home running and how we can simplify.”

“I play guitar, the ukulele and the piano. I grew up on a mountain in Tennessee, and we had 'The Mountain Opry,' where anyone could just get up on stage to perform. It was just about the soul and heart of music. My upbringing was less about being great and more about just doing what you love. It was always for joy.”

“I told my parents I wanted to move to New York City and be an actress when I was around seven or eight.”

“I grew up drinking eggnog and watching 'It's A Wonderful Life' every Christmas with my family.”

“Moving to New York City by myself at 17 was certainly my bravest moment. I bought a one-way ticket and stayed with a friend of a friend and figured it out along the way.”

“I love Christmas movies.”

“I grew up on a mountain in Tennessee, and my brothers and I love to go to The Mountain Opry when we are home. There is alway an abundance of laughter and joy, and anyone can get up on stage and dance and sing. My family also goes to a candlelight service at church on Christmas Eve. It's such a wonderful way to spend the night before Christmas.”

“Growing up on a mountain in Tennessee, I spent most of my childhood outside.”

“I put up my Christmas tree entirely too early. I'm one of those people.”

“I grew up hiking and horseback riding in Tennessee, so I love being outside. I will joyfully run 12 miles, but I'm not very good at boot camps. When they start yelling, I start laughing.”

“When I'm traveling, I always look for a dance studio. It's a great workout and a wonderful way to meet new friends in the community.”

“I grew up in a house my parents built together on a mountain in Tennessee. When we moved in, the walls were still going up, we didn't have hot water, and we turned it into an amazing adventure.”

“I hope to be working and eating dessert at 93 just like my grandma.”

“I go on walks during lunch breaks and travel with a fold-up yoga mat. I also love reading by candlelight at night.”

“I think, now that my brothers and I live so far apart, the greatest gift is when we can be together - when everyone can be in the same room at the same time.”

“My 93-year-old grandma is a beautiful example of healthy living. She laughs a lot and always says, 'Just be yourself!' She also eats dessert every single day.”
