I'm the only nerd with a piece of paper.

It concerns me when people frame the conversation about equal pay about the entertainment business. I don't want the wage gap issue to be viewed as this myopic problem, because it's not. It's in 98 percent of all businesses, and it's easy for people to dismiss this conversation when they think it's around white women entertainers. But this is about all women in America.

Every day that a woman is making less money, that's less money she has in retirement.

It's always beautiful to see people striving to grow.

I definitely isolate, but I also always have people in front of me, and I have to be OK with that. I'm in a business where, on the set, you're around two hundred people every day, and if you're high on the call sheet, you sort of set the tone for the set. And you want people to feel appreciated, and you want to ask them how their kids are. You want to talk to people and invest in them and let them know that they're appreciated and heard. But then I do like to just kind of withdraw.

Mothering is one of the most beautiful experiences of my life.

I'm kind of the long-hauler type of person. I also have a strong work ethic and gratitude for people that I work with.
