For me, just being on the cover of a magazine wasn't enough. I began to think, what value is there in doing something in which you have no creative input?
For a while I was on the cover of every Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, which was regarded as the pinnacle of success in America.
A celebrity name is never enough for an intelligent mass market... truly successful businesses are born of passion and heartfelt interest.
Having children is my greatest achievement. It was my saviour. It switched my focus from the outside to the inside. My children are gifts, they remind me of what's important.
But I do know focusing on the exterior doesn't make me happy. If I want peace and serenity, it won't be reached by getting thinner or fatter.
I feel beautiful when I'm at peace with myself. When I'm serene, when I'm a good person, when I've been considerate of others.
