It's okay to be two things at once and a paradox. Everybody is. As humans for survival we like to label things in a split second. It is how we don't implode from anxiety.

I'm really grateful that my baby daddy is incredibly involved. But there's certain things I wish he could just telepathically know.

Did I think I'd ever be in television shows that people would see or movies? No. But I knew that I was going to be an actor.

I also feel like motherhood, especially, is seen usually in movies with this saintly veil over it. There's something about tipping that and showing what's actually going on. Or the wish fulfillment of probably most moms, which is really exciting. It's an area that's unexplored.

There are generations of women who left the workforce to be moms, and their kids grow up, and they think, "Well, what now?"

I have two young kids. So my VCR, like, you kind of have to sift through a lot of, like, 'Animal Mechanicals,' 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.'

I have impossible standards.
