I Did Not Like The Way I

I Grew Up In A House Where My Father Encouraged My Brother And Me To Fail. I Specifically Remember Coming Home And Saying, 'dad, Dad, I Tried Out For This Or That And I Was Horrible,' And He Would High-five Me And Say, 'way To Go.'

I Would Say Where I Feel Like I'm Struggling The Most In Learning And Giving Myself Permission To Fail Is In Finding The Balance In Life. There Are Different Aspects To Women: There's The Mother, There's The Working Woman, There's The Wife, The Friend, The Sister, The Daughter And So Just Figuring That All Out. I Continue To Want To Try New Things And Give Myself Permission To Not Be Great At It.

I Feel That Women Have Been Neglected, Unnecessarily Neglected And Mistreated Personally By The Fashion Industry And Shapewear In That Entire Category Was A Definite Place That We Were Neglected.

Don't Let What You Don't Know Scare You, Because It Can Become Your Greatest Asset. And If You Do Things Without Knowing How They Have Always Been Done, You're Guaranteed To Do Them Differently.

There Is A Hidden Blessing In The Most Traumatic Things We Go Through In Our Lives. My Brain Always Goes To, 'where Is The Hidden Blessing? What Is My Gift?'
