It's been an absolutely amazing month! My book sold out in paperback on Amazon (twice!) and Barnes & Noble (yeah!!!- links where to get it now are included below) and now the absolute BEST radio show on earth (I LOVE Virginia!!!) has taken the time to talk about my book and specifically one of the things I reveal in the book that holds us back and can get in the way of us going after our dreams...
Thank you so much Virginia, Kevin & Jason!!! Listen here to the segment and check out The KVJ Show on WRMF (97.9 in S Florida) and iHeart Radio!

Juliette Lewis Knows How to Go All the Way
Time for another excerpt from my new book (out in just a few days...May 24th in case I hadn't mentioned it;) This time I want to share a bit about the incredible Juliette Lewis from my Diva's Detail #2: Go All The Way...
"The actress and singer Juliette Lewis is one of the most passionate people I have ever met. Her performances are so visceral. I first met her when she was in town with her band, "The Licks." An Oscar nominee for her performance in Cape Fear, Juliette has worked with some of Hollywood’s most elite directors, Martin Scorsese, Woody Allen, Robert Rodriguez…she’s a powerhouse and one of the best in her field.
Juliette couldn’t have been more gracious, more genuine, more interested. She was full of questions and happy to give answers to any and all of my queries. In addition to acting success, music is a huge part of who she is too. Just because she had achieved success in acting didn’t mean she was ready to stop growing, learning and discovering who all she really is. She continues to tap into her strengths, wherever that leads her. Juliette is a true professional, and a true original. She is all of the things that most of us aspire to be, genuinely warm, confident and happy. When we were introduced, she smiled her infectious smile and gave me a big hug. She made a point to put her arm around me when we took photographs and made sure we got everything we needed from the interview before wrapping up. She gives her all, all the time. It is obvious that she loves what she does. Juliette is one of the most dynamic and engaging performers I have ever seen, be it acting or singing. She is a great example of someone who has become more of herself (Detail #1) and goes all the way (Detail #2)."

Eat Your Fears For Breakfast
The name Taylor Swift is synonymous with "fearless"! Here is a quick excerpt from my book The Diva's in the Details (out May 24th!!!) where I talk about meeting her at the beginning of her crazy successful career!
Taylor Swift at M*E Television (still image from acoustic set played on our soundstage in Austin)
"I have met countless celebrities and people of note who understood the all-important details and had that “je ne sais quoi.” These individuals had belief in themselves and control over their fears. Our fears will never really go away, but we can eat them for breakfast and then get on with our day.
Taylor Swift was a living example of eating fear even before she recorded her second album, titled "Fearless." I met Taylor at the beginning of her career, and even then I saw she naturally possessed “it.” Right before her career blew up, we interviewed her and filmed her performing a couple of acoustic tracks from her debut album. She was so young, bright, beautiful, talented, but that wasn’t all. She was brave. She believed in herself. When we were first introduced, we shook hands. Taylor had a strong grip like me. She smiled with enthusiasm and a quiet confidence. She was so young, nervous to perform in front of the cameras, but she put her fears aside. You got a sense she was meant for great things. She put it all out there and worked her butt off. Now she is a very influential and successful woman who has sold millions of albums, won countless awards and is living her dream. Taylor will tell you it takes more than talent and hard work. If you don’t believe in you, no one else will."
