Quote

There was that moment of, Oh, my parents are watching Columbo and I hate it to No, I love this show, too. And I feel like, for me, that was around 11 or 12, where I could actually join my parents in their viewing and wasn't so irritated that they were always watching Columbo.

The only thing I really get snobby about is - not food or wine or certainly not television - I would say I get snobby about skin-care regimens and people taking care of their skin in the right way.

I never sleep in. By the way, when we're like, We alternate waking up for the kids, the other person's waking up at 7 a.m. It's not like you're waking up at 10. It's like, I'm really going to give you a treat and you're gonna get your ass up at 7 instead of 5:59. Which is when our son wakes up.

I had several moms who knew and didn't bring gifts for the baby and instead brought me food, candles, journals - the women who were like, Actually, I know this is a tough time for you, and it's much more important that I show up here instead of to the baby shower.

Anyone who knows my professional history has known I've gone through a gazillion managers and agents or whatever. I'm like, This doesn't feel right - moving on. I don't really suffer fools, which makes it easier for me.

It's very hard, I think especially for women, to not take it in and to not be super conscious of the way that you're being seen, which is of course completely antithetical to the work you want to do, which is completely free and bold and truthful and honest and brave.

I've referred to [Marcus Lemonis] as my celebrity crush. I'm totally describing my celebrity crush, and that was not the question. But I am a fan of his. I really am.

I'm not referring to an up-and-coming comedian. I am referring to the host of The Profit. He invests his own money into small businesses that need to be turned around. He becomes partners in them. And I love the way he does business, and I love his integrity, and I love where his head's at, and I love what he has to say, and I learn from him.

For me, I was the most vulnerable and needed the most in my postpartum experience and got the least. It was just kind of a drop-off. That would be my focus - on the woman, afterwards.

[The Women's Room] was the first thing I read that explained a lot of the feelings I was having and a lot of the rage and the feeling uncomfortable in my body and knowing that I was feeling a certain way in the world, but I didn't have the language for it.

I'll keep this as nonpartisan and diplomatic as possible - but for those of us whose heads are kind of spinning off and are really engaged in what's happening right now and trying to effect change where we can, when we can, I think we also need to express ourselves and express our anger and also find joy in things like The Golden Girls right now.
