My first job in TV was hosting this young teen magazine show, and all these high school teenagers showed up from all over Sacramento, California, and they chose four of us to host the show, two boys and two girls.

I think that's something people need to convey because you see all these celebrity moms out there, and the perception is they can do it all, but they have sooo much help.
