Superstar singer and actress shares how self-acceptance and commitment brought both success and lasting joy
Superstar singer and actress shares how self-acceptance and commitment brought both success and lasting joy

Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) March 07, 2017 -- “Whatever your inspiration, you have to look for a reason to fight the good fight every day,” says Queen Latifah, whose fighting spirit and confidence helped her rise above tough times to win acclaim and a score of awards in music, film and TV, where she appears in her latest project, Lee Daniels’ FOX series, Star.

“Around 18 or so, I was making bad choices based on not loving myself so I decided to make a decision to either love [myself] or hate [myself],” she says. “I decided I needed to love myself. But I also needed to truly believe that, own that, and make decisions based on that. I had to accept myself as I am.”

Who better than the Queen herself to reign over the International Day of Happiness movement that kicks off in March? Live Happy’s May issue, available on March 7, offers expert advice about how to show and spread your joy this spring, including ways to mold a joyful mindset at work, with your family and with yourself.

“Queen Latifah perfectly captures the spirit and energy of the happiness movement that we celebrate each year at this time,” says Deborah K. Heisz, Live Happy’s co-founder, CEO and editorial director. “I’m especially inspired by her multifaceted career and success she’s gained across multiple industries. A clear, positive mindset is a key starting point to spreading happiness to all you meet.”

Among the features in the May issue, readers will find the following highlights:

Happiness Reigns Supreme—In this month’s cover story, superstar singer and actress Queen Latifah goes straight to the heart of what’s truly important in life: family, confidence and health.
