Ten Things I Can’t Do Without
- 2. and 3. Family . . . my husband Thom, my rock, and 2 daughters, Madison and Lucy Blue, my everything
- Morning ritual . . . Earl Grey Tea with Vanilla Chai every morning long before any conversation takes place
- Play/exercise . . . rowing with the Carolina Masters Crew Club
- Music. . . a badass diva soundtrack with Nina Simone, Lana Del Rey, Florence and the Machine, Amy Winehouse, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, and Dinah Washington for my studio days
- Friendship . . . a sisterhood of strong, talented women that I surround myself with in my professional and personal life
- Creativity . . . for obvious reasons as an artist, but it is also my approach to almost everything I do
- Creature comfort . . . my Tempur-Pedic mattress, because sleep becomes more precious and elusive with each passing year
- Vice/ indulgence . . . chocolate, which should probably be on the list multiple times.
