More quotes by Daphne Oz
Having been to culinary school, the single greatest asset I learned there was how to cut and chop properly. It's an investment of money that will save you hours of time down the road, and hopefully some cut fingers.

You can tell your kids they are perfect and don't need to change - which could cause insecurity when they recognize their own shortcomings - or tell them they are terrible, which would undermine their sense of self-worth and confidence. There's a happy middle ground.

The only reason I write at all is because I am going through, and growing through, something in my life I want to share with others through my personal experiences.
Daphne Oz
I do what I do because my favorite thing is to learn.

Don't make a different meal for every person, but make buildable meals. And, I do this with my kids, try to expand their palates gently.

Make sure you eat whole foods that are good for your entire body. This doesn't mean that you can't enjoy your food or make room for plenty of indulgences. But your conscious goal has to be to eat for long term health and what you do most of the time is what really counts.
Daphne Oz
I love to look at my life and look at what I can do better, how I can contribute more and where I can push myself.
Daphne Oz
More than anything, having adventures with my siblings and spending time with my family and my husband make me happy.

Exercise is important, but exercise in a gym is not important. Go and take a walk outside. Skip the umpteenth coffee date and go for a hike instead. Take the stairs. Walk your errands.

I am inspired by working moms. Mothers who somehow balance the demands of their many lives - professional, familial, personal, and interior - and still manage to make time to have fun and invest in themselves! This is a huge challenge that I look forward to taking on.
Daphne Oz
I am proactive and looking to change my own behavior rather than others' - which is generally much more successful!
Daphne Oz
Standards are what you hold for yourself, too. If I don't hold those standards with friends, colleagues, and lovers, I can't hold them to their relationships.

I didn't grow up eating meat - I was a vegetarian until I was 18.

This moment is precious and full of great potential: all we have to do is figure out the little changes that will make a huge impact on how wonderful life can be in this moment.

I get to help people create lives that make them happier and healthier than they were yesterday. I knock on wood that my family is healthy and happy and love each other.

My dad, who is a heart surgeon, works with many adult patients who did not take good care of their bodies in their formative years. He is able to teach them how to break old eating and exercise habits and reshape their bodies, but not without a great deal of resistance.
