I remember once when I was working on a magazine, and one of the male editors was going on a field trip with one of his sons. The office was full of, 'He's such a good dad,' whereas I came in late from a doctor's appointment for one of my children and was asked, 'Where were you? You'll need to make up the time.'

I'm English. All we do is blush.

Having diverse leadership means there are more voices in the room, and there are more different points of entry for people who are being bullied or abused at work. There are more points of entry for them to complain to.

You need a nutritional love diet. Don't put the junk stuff in your body - it's not going to do you any good.

'Marie Claire' is one of those magazines that doesn't feel as well known as it should be.
Joanna Coles -
I can't spend any time cultivating celebrity.
Joanna Coles -
I like being a boss.
Joanna Coles -
With experience, you suddenly realise you know how to do things or that you've done something like this before. And I think as you get more confident, you can sit back and try and weigh up the options of doing something or not doing something.

Make a list of all the people in your life, and rate them in terms of energy in, energy out. Is there anyone in your life right now who is blocking your love quest?

I probably don't conform to most people's idea of a fashion editor.
Joanna Coles -
I like to use exercise classes as a way of understanding what people are doing. I'm promiscuous in terms of exercise. You see what people are wearing. You see what people are responding to. You see what the music is they're listening to. An exercise class is social anthropology: what clothes people are wearing, what are the new sneakers.
Joanna Coles -
I think that women's lives are multilayered.
Joanna Coles -
I was a dogged reporter.
Joanna Coles -
Nothing's more important than who you love and who loves you back.

We can't pretend that a Facebook friend is the same as a real friend you've shared times with together, both good times and difficult times.
Joanna Coles -
As long as you're interested in people and things, that curiosity propels you forward.

As the editor of 'Cosmopolitan,' I talk to hundreds of young women about the sometimes bewilderingly rapid changes taking place in our romantic lives and the role new technology plays in our search for intimacy and commitment.
Joanna Coles -
What, for me, was exciting about America was just this extraordinary, complex, difficult, fascinating country, and Britain can feel very small. London, in particular, feels small because everything happens there, so you have publishing, politics, you have finance; everything in Britain happens in London.
Joanna Coles -
Every time I've been offered a new job, I've automatically said, 'Oh, I don't think you want me for that job.' It's sort of a weird female - or, at least, it is in me - a weird female defense, when, in fact, what you want to do is scream, 'Hooray, I want to do this!'
Joanna Coles -
Price is nothing when it comes to fashion. It's all about the style.

I was 36 when I had my first son, Thomas, and 39 when I had Hugo, my second.
Joanna Coles -
One of the things 'Cosmo' feels really strongly about is we need more women candidates running, and we need more women across the parties in D.C.
Joanna Coles -
I have no problem understanding that women are interested in mascara and the Middle East.

Love and food are very similar in many ways. We can't survive without them, and they bring us great joy, and just as there is junk food, and you can become obese, there's also junk love.
