I'm One Of The Luckiest People On

My Mother Was And Will Always Remain My Greatest Hero.

I Was Raised To Be An Independent Woman, Not The Victim Of Anything.

I Believe In That Old Adage That 'as Goes California, So Goes The Country.

I Work Out Every Morning. Only Half An Hour. I Get On The Treadmill. That's It. Every Morning, I Don't Care What Time. It Gets Your Blood Flowing. It Gets Your Adrenaline Flowing. I Believe In Eating Well. It's Not Fanatical. Eat Good Food. Make Sure You've Got Good Vegetables.

I've Been A Proud Mentor To Many Women Seeking Public Office, Because I Believe We Need More Women At All Levels Of Government. Women Have An Equal Stake In Our Future And Should Have An Equal Voice In Our Politics. These Are Challenging Times, But I Believe Getting More Women To Run For Office Is A Big Part Of The Solution.
