It is one of the most important parts of my job, showing that you can't do it all.

The main objective - our soul is our people. And our job is to enrich their lives, change the world. And so I think that's the bigger pressure you put on yourself.

I've never gone to the Oscars because I can't afford another week away. It is not more important than my husband. It is not more important than my kids.

Remember - the universal language is not texted, emailed, or spoken. It is felt.

Part of me is very entrepreneurial.

Don't stop. Don't slow down. Keep focused.

The sign of a great leader is knowing what you know and knowing what you don't know.

We cherish right and we cherish left, but more important, we cherish when you are able to use the whole mind that you were born with.

I think if I'm guilty of anything, I'm guilty of always being incredibly focused on the task at hand. So wherever I've worked, I've just always tried to do my best, achieve my best, build a great team around me.

I don't want to be a great chief executive without being a great mum and a great wife.

An influencer, to me, is someone who shares their journey - the ups and downs - and their approach to their craft or the spark that ignites a new interest allowing people to do more and go further.

Everyone talks about building a relationship with your customer. I think you build one with your employees first.
