“I cook from the spirit.”

“I wanted to help people find their way back to some joy and some freedom and love and happiness.”

“I always want people to feel free to be who they are, to be good to themselves.”

“I always say, 'Have a good day and if you can't, don't you dare go messing up nobody else's.'”

“I was exhausted with putting this mask on every day and trying to be someone else. And I realized also that I'm not honoring God when I'm trying to be something other than what he created.”

“I'm a storyteller by nature.”

“There's always something in every situation that's meant to teach us something.”

“For the most part yes, I am positive, I think because I've been through so many bad times. I made a decision that if I got through those, I'm going to choose happiness, I'm going to choose joy, and I'm always going to look for the positive.”

“Because I am able, I smile. It is a gift to be able to smile, and I don't take it for granted.”

“Every day I learn something new.”

“I would do these auditions and then beat myself up. I was always on a diet and always trying to look a certain way, be a certain size and trying to fit in. And because of that, I was not free - I was living for other people and not myself.”

“I want to be helpful to people.”

“My hope is that when people read the different stories and different things I've been through, it will make them look at their situation and say, 'OK, I know I must be going through this for a reason' and find the lesson in each journey.”

“When you're not rooted in your authentic self, you believe what someone tells you. You'll fall for it.”

“My dad even followed in my vegan footsteps a year after I did, and then my daughter and husband.”

“A lot of times, we tend to be reactive instead of proactive. I encourage my readers to be proactive with their life and health.”

“When I was growing up, I was very much a tomboy. I didn't want to be in nobody's kitchen, I wanted to be outside.”

“I never expect anything from anyone. The way that people support me, it makes me emotional. Because all I do every day is try to show up as me 100% and spread love to people, and to receive it back the way that I do - it is really mind-blowing.”
