You better get as much work as you can now because, once you get over 40, it’s over.

The biggest challenge is the chaos of parenthood, which has honestly been such a welcome challenge - bring it on, I say!

When I started in the business, years ago, people would always say, "You better get as much work as you can now because, once you get over 40, it's over." I don't see that with TV. Maybe it's because I am getting older, but the kinds of roles I'm drawn to are more mature roles.

I think when you're a mom and an actor, it forces you to leave any actor neuroses behind and just concentrate on the work.

I love female-driven drama, and those kinds of characters. I really love complex women.
