“Because of my unique experience as my mom's child, the beginning of my journey was more about me trying to figure out who I was on my own. My mom is one of the greatest moms and so supportive of all my siblings and of all of us being who we are, and not who she wanted us to be.” TryingChildrenWantedMy OwnJourneyFiguresMomUniqueMy MomWho We AreSupportiveSiblingMy JourneyMy SiblingsUnique ExperiencesGreatest Mom Author:Tracee Ellis Ross
“Love yourself. Nobody's perfect. I mean, come on, nobody is perfect. Not you, not your mom, even the people on TV - nobody is perfect, and there's always something that nobody likes, but you know, you just accept that. Your imperfections make you beautiful. It's those things you find you don't like that someone else finds very special and very unique about you.” PeopleKnowsMeanBeautifulPerfectAcceptingSpecialLove YouTvsMomUniqueLikesImperfectionLove YourselfYour MomNobody's Perfect Author:Keke Palmer
“My mom always has this amazing ability to always see the best in a situation. In that moment [when finished 2nd in the 200 meter race in the 2008 Olympic games] I was just completely devastated. I mean, I had worked so hard; that was my opportunity. And she was just able to turn it around for me. She helped me to be able to see the other side of things and that this is not the end for me. She's just an amazing supporter and an encouraging person and she has a unique ability to do that. And so those are the kind of things she said to me in that moment and over the next four years. When things get tough, she's always been my strength.” YearsKindPersonsSaidMomentsNextAbilityFourMomUniqueToughMy MomThat MomentFour YearsSupporterWhen Things Get Tough Author:Allyson Felix
