Morning routine: "I make breakfast for my family, exercise (4 days a week), do my meditation practice for an hour and get into my work 'til the end of the day. Then I make dinner for everyone, and we love to sit and eat together."

Expert advice:
1. Wear something that will flatter your body and make you feel confident--confidence and how you carry yourself brings out so much beauty
2. Spend a little quiet time in peace and silence with yourself--inner peace shows in everything you do and how you look
