CBS: Tell us about partnering with the One A Day Women’s brand and Feeding America. How did you get involved in the Nutrition Mission?
SC: “I’m excited to team up with One A Day Women’s and Feeding America this Hunger Action Month on year two of the One A Day Women’s Nutrition Mission to help the nearly 50 million Americans that live with food insecurity. Since the start of the program, we’ve donated 4 million meals to Feeding America’s network of more than 200 food banks, which helps distribute food in communities across America. One A Day Women’s has also awarded $100,000 in grants to local food banks to help people in local communities to continue the fight against hunger.”
CBS: How do you balance your career and motherhood?
SC: “I try to keep Wyatt and Levi’s lives as consistent as possible. We spend a lot of time at home and that’s my priority with work coming second. I’ve also got a great team and family who pitch in to make it all happen.”

CBS: Do you believe “women having it all” is unrealistic or is it attainable?
SC: “I think having children changes your ideas about what having it all means. I don’t feel the same way about work as I did before I had Wyatt and Levi, but I pride myself on finding balance. I love making music and I love raising my boys — I find time to make both a priority.”
