Advice to Younger Self

Looking back, what advice would you give your younger self starting out in the industry?

Darling, if I could sit down with that bright-eyed girl just stepping into the limelight, I'd tell her a few things. First, always remember your worth isn't defined by the spotlight or the applause. You are more than the roles you play and the glitz of Hollywood. Stay true to who you are, and don't lose yourself in the character others want you to be.

Secondly, trust your instincts. In this industry, you'll meet people who want to shape you, mold you into their ideal. But listen to that inner voice of yours; it knows what's right for you.

And lastly, cherish your friendships, the genuine ones. The path to stardom can be lonely, and true friends are like stars in a dark sky – they'll guide you and keep you grounded.

Always approach life with love and a dash of humor. And remember, it's okay to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress simultaneously. Keep shining, darling.
