Conventional is not for me. I like things that are uniquely Flo. I like being different. ↗

I couldn't wait until I grew up. I used to look at my mom's stockings and put them on with her high heels and mess with my hair. ↗

I don't always have the best eating habits. I like butter and ice cream. There are days when I should work out and I don't. But it's never too late to change old habits. ↗

I don't do drugs. I never have taken any drugs. I don't believe in them. ↗

I love working with kids, talking with them and listening to them. I always encourage kids to reach beyond their dreams. Don't try to be like me. Be better than me. ↗

I used to be teased for the way I wore my hair at school. I used to do things like wear a different-colored sock on each leg. ↗
