I didn't have the easiest childhood. I was never the popular girl in school growing up. I was always the lone black girl or the lone fat girl or the long tall girl, so that has made me more compassionate to all people. It also gave me the drive and ambition to go after my dreams in a big way.

I think the biggest issue for women in the workplace is men!

There's no worse way to insult a woman than by saying she looks like a man, but once a woman gets over that, there is no stronger woman.

I view myself as a multicultural woman who happens to be black.

I always had a good dexterity. The story in my family goes that at the age of 3 I could thread needles faster than anybody.

My wife has her own career and has been successful as well. The key for our success is mutual support for each other.

Pope Francis is calling for a better way to hold together complicated family lives in the midst of official church teaching without alienating people who have marital issues and family problems.

When I was younger, all of my family's money went into racing. We were never a stylish family. We never went shopping, because all the money went into buying tires and fuel and all of that.
