Sarah Alderson Revealed

Q. What is your motto or maxim? A. The universe gives you all the ideas you need exactly when you need them Q. What’s your best quality? A. Loyalty probably. And I am very much a get it done person. Q. What do you regret most? A. Oh god I have so many regrets but then I remember you can't properly have lived if you don't have regrets. The thing is to shake them off, learn from them and move on. Fast. And try not to make the same mistake again. Q. If you could acquire any talent, what would it be? A. I wouldn't mind Lila's talent. I'd like to be able to move stuff without having to move a muscle. That's because I'm lazy.. Q. Which living person do you most admire? A. Probably my husband. He has such warmth and determination and his belief in outrageous potential is why we're living the life we are. Also he married me and is still married to me. That takes quite a lot of staying power. Learn more about Sarah Alderson
