Being a plus-size actress, it is slim pickings, so anytime any role comes up for a plus-size actress, my agents are all over it, and they were like, 'You have to book this job. It's 'American Horror Story.' It's a big deal.' No pressure, right?

Even highly credentialed professionals get caught up in this.

The mind and the body are inextricably entwined, and rarely are their inseparability clearer than when we're under some kind of mental pressure.

At the high school level, the coaches get these kids in revenue-driven sports and take them away from baseball. There's so much pressure on these kids to even play spring football.
