Cynthia James is a risk taker at heart. When she was younger she was preoccupied with surviving.

But little by little, she moved from welfare to possibilities in part, because of her grandma's wisdom. She kept planting seeds, encouraging Cynthia to think bigger. And she went from being a flight attendant to Miss Minnesota, then becoming an actor and a singer!

There are a lot of good nuggets in our conversation.

Mainly, Cynthia thinks it's important to know: what lights you up? 

And to ask yourself: what would you do for free?

My favorite thing she said was: fear is nothing but energy and info.

We're always evolving and growing.  There will be fear, but it's normal and it's just energy. Use it to your advantage.

And stay away from the people telling you that you can't.

Keep your mind on the CAN.
