“Nothing in life is free. If you want something, you have to work for it. That’s the way it is. Life isn’t always easy. We all have good times and bad times, and sometimes it feels like a real struggle. But there’s always light at the end of the tunnel. No matter what happens, you just keep going.” - Nancy

“This was her answer when I asked, “If you had to give me one piece of advice, what would it be?” If you know Fancy Nancy, you’ll know that this advice speaks volumes. Her outlook on life is grounded and practical—she’s never afraid of the challenges life brings because she’s had her share. Perseverance, hard work, and the belief that things will always get better in the end are the cornerstones of how she lives. I know this to be true because I’ve watched her live it over and over again.”
