Dana Buchman, Sheryl Crow and Ellen Burstyn
 

Oprah: What advice would you give to your younger self?

Dana: I would tell myself that you can have it all, but the "it" might not be what you think it is.

Sheryl: Loving yourself—I think that's so key and that's really what love is. It begins inside. Also to be gentle on yourself. I think we have so many expectations put on us and so many projections. It's important to be really gentle and forgiving.

Ellen: Well, Edna Rae Gillooly is still alive in me. I talk to her all the time and I tell her that I won't abandon her now. When she needs attention, I'm going to give it to her. The past was the past, but I don't want her to suffer now what she suffered in the past.
