Every single morning, I have a person sitting right there next to me in prayer with a tape recorder - and a song comes up every day.
I woke up one morning with this song in my head, and the opening line of the song is, 'My name was Richard Nixon, only now I'm a girl.'
I made that decision back in 1985. I was out here getting certified in SCUBA with Garcia in Kona and I thought to myself, this is a place to wake up in in the morning.
I just remember Stella Tenant and me dancing in Donatella Versace's bathtub until like four in the morning. It was one of those 'pinch me' moments.
I swear by my Clarisonic Mia 2! I use it every morning when I wake up and every night before bed.
People work better when they know what the goal is and why. It is important that people look forward to coming to work in the morning and enjoy working.
I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning.
We also own a little boat and I'm like a kid with it. I take off early in the morning, fishing rod in tow, and just drift about the ocean all day.
You can be in Tokyo or Alberta at four in the morning in your hotel and you can still practice if you feel like it. A trombone cannot do that at four in the morning.
I don't think feminism is about the exclusion of men but their inclusion... we must face and address those issues, especially to include younger men and boys.
A man who gets divorced is not forever going to be talked about for it. There are very different standards that we have for women than we have for men.
I don't know why women want any of the things men have when one the things that women have is men.
My mother said that we're so lucky to be women. It's not that men are weak. Men are men. We're two completely different animals.
For me, it's really like, okay, if you go far with the unexpected materials and unexpected proportions or volumes, then keep the colors quite simple and straightforward for men.
Now I look back and think if I'd spent more time enjoying myself instead of crying into my pillow over men, my 20s would have been fabulous!
Some men have thousands of reasons why they cannot do what they want to, when all they need is one reason why they can.
If you ask, do you like strong men or weak men, I'd say, I like who I like.
When I moved out of my mom's house at 18 I was almost as sad to leave her sewing machine behind as anything else.
People may not know this about me, but I've always loved cooking. My favorite thing to cook is my mom's spicy spaghetti.
My mom had to beg the guys to let me play. I couldn't even play the drums right - Brian had to show me.
My mom was the picture of the blue-collar mom: Two and three and four jobs to make sure that me and my sister never needed, that was her thing.
