Q: Hometown?
A: Bensalem, PA (But I always say Philly)
Q: Song that gets you DO-ing?
A: I’m old school Rock & Roll for life! Gimme some Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, and Queen and all is right in the world.
Q: Best thing you #JaneDID?
A: This may sound crazy, but my divorce. It is terribly difficult to admit when you’ve made a mistake, and it is even more difficult to put one foot in front of the other, and do your best to start again. It was the most terrifying, freeing, and self loving thing I have ever done. I am a stronger, more capable, more fearless person because of it.
Q: Top of your to-DO list?
A: TRAVEL
Q: Guilty pleasure?
A: Wine… no tequila…no gin, definitely gin…. Ok you get it
Q: Who’s your best friend?
A: One day in 1989 I walked over to a little blonde girl who was swinging on the swingset and asked if I could swing next to her….we’ve been side by side ever since. Morgan is my rock. She challenges me to be more honest and show up. She pushes me to find more love and light in the world. She makes me hysterically belly laugh on a regular basis. She is the definition of strength (even though she’s totally crazy). This woman is the kind of person you go to bat for, and the kind of person you hide a dead body for. I am the luckiest human on earth to have her by my side.
Q: Your greatest strength?
A: My desire to be a good human. I don’t always get it right, but that desire leads me.
Q: Where do you find your strength?
A: Whenever I feel like I can’t push any further I think about the strongest people I know (who happen to be women). I remember that it is a profound gift to have a brain and a body that works and that it is my duty to honor that gift. That helps motivate me to keep going and keep trying to be a better version of myself.
Q: Hidden talent?
A: …well it wouldn’t be hidden then would it?..
Q: Worth it splurge?
A: I am really not a big shopper, but I have no problem spending money on food and drinks. Dinners, cocktails, even take out for 1…Food and the ritual of eating with loved ones is one of my favorite things to do.
Q: Vacation Destination?
A: Spain and Portugal
Q: What is the last thing you Googled?
A: 90’s Makeup
