My Advice to Young Women: Oh, so much…but most importantly, go to college, live on your own, travel all the time, move to a new city all by yourself, always have confidence in yourself, surround yourself with great people and never, ever settle!

How I Balance it All: Ha. That changes every day but I really think the key to life is balance and moderation in everything you do. Always make time for yourself and don’t ever feel guilty doing so. Ask for help if you feel overwhelmed and keep it all in perspective!
