I began to see during the civil war, in that part of the states of Missouri and Kansas where the doctors were shut out, the children did not die.
Being called 'conscious' is a great thing to be, but it's the connotations and preconceived notions that come with the buying audience about what conscious music can be.
Nothing much has changed after I joined the film industry. I follow the same diet and fitness routine that I used to during my modelling days.
I'm an advocate for being full-blown vegan. That's my ideal way that I would love people to live, but the key to it is eating as little processed foods and a more whole foods-type diet as possible.
