I hope that you are in the 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,400 Speaker 1: mood to feed your soul today, because my guest came 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: into the studio. She sprinkled her joy and wisdom all 5 00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: over that room, and she left me feeling like I 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,600 Speaker 1: was ready to take on the world. That is the 7 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: magic of the one and only Academy Award winning actress 8 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 1: Davine Joy Randolph. You may have caught one of her 9 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 1: inspiring speeches during the award circuit for her film The Holdovers, 10 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: which is just, oh my god, it's such a gorgeous movie, 11 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: the movie that she won the Oscar for. But to 12 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: sit across from this woman and to look into her 13 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: eyes and to listen to her speak, it's probably one 14 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: of the most soul shaking experiences I have had on 15 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: my show. And now I am just so excited to 16 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: share this conversation with you. I don't want to delay 17 00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 1: this a second more.

But 32 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: you know I go to the Jersey Shore, which isn't 33 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: that far from Philly. 34 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,199 Speaker 2: Yes, so I have respect, I respect. 35 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: I spent some days in Philly in my in my time, 36 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: which we're not going to talk about, but I've had 37 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: some fun. 38 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 2: I already know. 39 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: Oh you do. 40 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: What about you feeling in the blinks. I'm aware you've 41 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: seen me. 42 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: You've seen me, uh huh, I certainly did. 43 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: Well. 44 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: I am so happy you're here. I feel like you 45 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: were one of these artists that I have had my 46 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: eye on for quite some time, and I've been so 47 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: excited to see where you've gone and what you're doing 48 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: and where you continue to go and grow and I 49 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: feel like the world is yours, like what can't you do? 50 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: Thank you? I really appreciate that. 51 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: I truly, I truly mean it. So to begin, this 52 00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: is my burning question for you. You ready for it? 53 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: Do you ever randomly during your day, whether you're grocery 54 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: shopping or doing laundry or at work, just stop and think. 55 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:21,959 Speaker 1: I'm an Academy Award winner. 56 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: Never never, never, No. And I think when people say it, 57 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 2: it thwarts me that I'm like, oh, yeah, that happened. 58 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: Why. 59 00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: I think it's because it was such and is still 60 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: an odd of body of experience that it was a 61 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 2: whirlwind and then it just happens. Right, You're on this 62 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 2: campaign for eight months. I'm still to me very early 63 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: in my career. So of course we all have goals 64 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 2: and wants and needs, but I never was like it 65 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: wasn't until quite honestly, the very end of all of 66 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 2: a war season and I was like, oh, maybe I 67 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 2: hope I might maybe get nominated, do you know what 68 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 2: I mean? So when it happened, still feels very very surreal. No, 69 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: I don't think about it, and I think, if anything, 70 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 2: what I am hyper focused on is using whatever that 71 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 2: will and can garner me to create other opportunities only 72 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 2: for myself, but for other people. That I would say 73 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 2: I've been very focused on less of the title, but 74 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 2: more of how can I use that to gain access 75 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 2: to the right doors and with the right people, to 76 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: not only help myself, but to help others, because I 77 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 2: know that I'll have more longevity in my career by 78 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: helping other people. Right, Like, if it was just me, 79 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: I can only get but so far. If I just 80 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: kept tunnel vision to just me, I can only get 81 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: so far. But if I made it more about other 82 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 2: people and a community and building a community, I think 83 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 2: we can can not only accomplish more, but it would 84 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 2: behoove me as well. 85 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: That's pretty cool that you see this big win in 86 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: your career as a way to pay it forward. 87 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: I think you have to wow right so that it 88 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 2: then doesn't feel like a fleeting moment or oh yeah, 89 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: that thing that happened, Because sometimes the biggest of moments 90 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: can feel like that, right that you spend all this 91 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: time and energy towards trying to make this thing happen, right, 92 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 2: whatever it is for any type of person, and then 93 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 2: it happens and you're like okay, and now what you 94 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 2: know what I mean, especially I've exerted so much energy 95 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 2: on that thing, and so I think it's always people 96 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 2: in my circle joke with me of like, you're such 97 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: a planner, you always have a strategy of something, and 98 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 2: I think it's because of the fact that you know, 99 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 2: I just it's never just right in front of you. 100 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: There always needs to I love a zoom and zoom 101 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: out right short term, long term, and so I just 102 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: think even with that award, I was always keenly focused 103 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 2: then on Okay, now what can we do with this 104 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 2: long term? Because now people are listening, right, And so 105 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: when you have a platform, I think you better have 106 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 2: a very clear intention and it can change and evolve, 107 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: but a clear intention on what you want to do 108 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 2: to pave the road for others and to really make 109 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:39,720 Speaker 2: a difference. 110 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: Do you feel like when something that monumental happens in 111 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: your career, which it did, that you have this pressure 112 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: to keep one upping yourself. 113 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 2: I already have that irregardless you're really honest, which maybe 114 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 2: how and why I got there I don't know, but yeah, 115 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: but I'm like that in general with anything at all things, 116 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 2: and it probably can be intent sometimes to be around me. 117 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: But I think at the same time, I'm always looking 118 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 2: as to how to maximize any experience. I guess that 119 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: could be the nice way of saying it, but truly 120 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: that I'm like, how can we get the most out 121 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 2: of this? How can we, you know, really make an impact? 122 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 2: That no thing is a small thing. And I think, 123 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: especially since my career thus far has been of a 124 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 2: supporting actress, you learn that of like okay number one, 125 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: you quite literally are here to support the other actor, 126 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 2: but to you are contributing and moving this forward, the 127 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 2: story forward. How can you make the most impact with 128 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 2: what you're given? And I think that's something that I've 129 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 2: just been a huge part of my life since the 130 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 2: very beginning, but also even more so as an actor, 131 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 2: I've been able to lean into that even more. I 132 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 2: think now in this day and age, there's so many 133 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: potentials for opportunities. It's not like you know, when our 134 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: parents were younger, where was much more you know, cutthroat 135 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: of you do this, you go to that school and 136 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: bring bang boom. You know one plus one equals too. 137 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 2: It's way good bad, are indifferent. There's way more opportunities. 138 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: You have to keep your eyes open and be ready. 139 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: And so I think it's about diversifying yourself as much 140 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: as possible so that you know you never know what 141 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 2: will stick. But I think it's always good and crucial 142 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 2: to constantly be in tune with yourself and your wants 143 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: and needs. And I always do this like a like 144 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 2: a scan, like a check in with myself of like 145 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: who am I now, what are my wants and needs? 146 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 2: How can I help others? What do I need to improve? 147 00:07:54,720 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: It's a constant thing for me so that hopefully I'm 148 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 2: constantly evolving and as you said, leveling up. Yeah. 149 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: And what I love about you is not only have 150 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: you created such incredible work and you have a new 151 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: movie coming out which we're going to talk about in 152 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 1: a bit, but you also stand for so many things 153 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 1: that make people feel seen and just by being yourself, 154 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: just by giving beautiful speeches like you did at the 155 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: Oscars where you said, for so long you want it 156 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 1: to be different, but in that moment and now you 157 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: realize you just want to be yourself. 158 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. 159 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: I mean to just pour that out is magical for people. 160 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 1: It's medicine for people. 161 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny because the other speeches I wrote them 162 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:44,079 Speaker 2: we wrote them, and my prop says was like, we're 163 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 2: going to do this off the dome. I was terrified. 164 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 2: I cried as we were getting ready. I'll never forget. 165 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: I went into the corner of the hotel and I 166 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: was like, I'm scared. I don't know what to say 167 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 2: if it happens, and she just was like, we just 168 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: like recapped on all of it, and so it's wild 169 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 2: to watch it back. But I really do mean that. 170 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: I think often, at least my generation was taught like 171 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 2: be different, br unique, have that niche have that thing. 172 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 2: And the more and more I do this, and having 173 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: the opportunity to travel the world and interview with people 174 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: and meet all these different people from all different walks 175 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,320 Speaker 2: of life, what I realize is that there's a lot 176 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 2: of people that don't know just how important and special 177 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: they are just as is. And I find that people 178 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: are constantly searching outside of themselves for inspiration and motivation, 179 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 2: which is great, but I think people a lot of 180 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: times people miss that it's within, and so I try 181 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 2: to just like I said that, like psychological scan as 182 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 2: much and it changes right you. And it's not to 183 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 2: say you're not gonna have bad days or not feeling 184 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: one hundred percent. But I find with those check ins, 185 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: it allows you to be truthful to where you really are, 186 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 2: and it allows you to have more empathy for where 187 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: you're at and how you can grow from there, because 188 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: sometimes we can be striving for that thing over there, 189 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: not even acknowledging where we're at here right, and so 190 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: in missing that connection, we're just getting more and more frustrating, 191 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 2: not realizing, well, you're not evaluating where you're at now 192 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 2: and what can be done here and now. I think 193 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 2: there's a mis nomenclature of like you got to like 194 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: dreaming is a privilege, or you have to wait for 195 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 2: that thing, And I just kind of of the philosophy 196 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 2: nowadays of it's always the thing, you can always be 197 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: doing something. I'm always telling my team, but we can 198 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: do something, we can do something right now. What can 199 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 2: we create for ourselves now? What opportunity can we do now? 200 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 2: How can we have an impact now? Yes, we have 201 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 2: that long term goal of whatever that thing is at 202 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 2: the time, but what can you do for yourself in 203 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: the present? 204 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 1: And I'm sure having that mentality just makes you feel 205 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: seen right, and it helps you feel like this is me. 206 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 2: And it grounds yourself into who you are, and you 207 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 2: then grow in this. It takes time, a confidence in 208 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 2: knowing for yourself what you want and what you want 209 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: to do, and you then kind of when your intentions 210 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: are right, when your heart is open and pure, and 211 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: when it comes from a place of giving. Oftentimes I 212 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: just say it to myself, it's not about me being right, 213 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 2: it's not. But then I'm like, not everyone's gonna get 214 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 2: it yet, but it'll catch on. And so it requires 215 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: consistency and persistency to execute it. And sometimes you're doing 216 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: that alone, and that I feel like it is the 217 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: true test. How can you stick with something, bet on yourself, 218 00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 2: root for yourself even if no one else is, And 219 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: then when they do sign on, how can you still 220 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: do that with an open heart and not be like, well, 221 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: you guys weren't here. What it doesn't matter. They're there 222 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: now right, It's aligned now right. And so that takes 223 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 2: humility and patience. And so that's why all these things 224 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 2: can happen. And I don't sit there thinking like I 225 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: don't even think I would be able to accomplish things 226 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 2: if I just sat thinking of like, oh my god, 227 00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 2: I'm gonna asking winter and to be fair, I also 228 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 2: need to work on acknowledging things that I accomplish if 229 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,600 Speaker 2: I'm being completely transparent with you. But at the same time, 230 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 2: I don't allow myself to get caught up into that, 231 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 2: and instead, I don't know. I look at it as 232 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 2: like a joyful reminder of you accomplish that, so great, 233 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: So what are we going to do? Let's continue to 234 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 2: bet on ourselves because I think if you do. I 235 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: think the world honestly would be a better place if 236 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,359 Speaker 2: we bet it on earth. Right, there's so much insecurity 237 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,720 Speaker 2: and fear and understandable. It's hard, it's really hard. But 238 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 2: sometimes the best support system is within and then through 239 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 2: doing so, you radiate and attract the right people to 240 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 2: come into your circle to further. Yeah, but that takes discernment, right, 241 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 2: That's why I'm like, it's the inside work first, because 242 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:31,360 Speaker 2: if it's not, you will always attract things good, better 243 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 2: and different. And there are moments right where we're like 244 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: how when you look at your circle and your like 245 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: or you know, the moves that you're making, like what 246 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: is going on? Why am I? And a lot of 247 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 2: times it's just because you're not taking the time to 248 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,079 Speaker 2: look in or checking in or identifying your wants and 249 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 2: needs and you're just going along with the flow. Sometimes 250 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: comfortability is like one of the most dangerous things, right, 251 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 2: even when it feel good, that things that feel good 252 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: aren't always good for you. And that's a tough lesson 253 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 2: because some people are like, but I just I just 254 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,839 Speaker 2: made it. I just started feeling comfortable, and it's like, okay, cool, 255 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 2: keep some of that, but it's on to the next 256 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: with the other stuff. 257 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: What I'm gonna need you to do before you leave 258 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: today is record three hundred and sixty five inspirational messages 259 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: in my phone so that every single day I can 260 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: wake up and press play and just hear you say something. 261 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: Because you are are giving me all the good fuel 262 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 1: in the world that I need right now. And I 263 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: love that and I appreciate you sharing your insights because 264 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 1: I think we can't grow and learn and be better 265 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: people unless we take these yeah lessons, these little nuggets 266 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,920 Speaker 1: of wisdom as I like to call it, and then 267 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: go make it our own. 268 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: Yes, I think that's the key, right you and I 269 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 2: only can say these things because I've experienced it, right, 270 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 2: It's not that I'm just saying, you know, high falutin 271 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: things that sound good. Anyone knows when you know, you know, 272 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 2: you have to experience it to know it. And I 273 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 2: think it's our job and part of our purpose is 274 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 2: to pass those lessons along. Like you have friends right 275 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: that if you go through something or they ask you 276 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 2: for advice, you can give them the advice. Some of 277 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 2: your nearest and DearS, you're like, Okay, nope, they're not 278 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 2: ready for it yet, heard it, yeah, or they either 279 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 2: don't want to hear it, or they heard it and 280 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: it just washed over them. But I do genuinely believe 281 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: that the consciousness does take it in. Yes, right, and 282 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 2: we'n't even experienced ourselves, almost like deja vu. It comes 283 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 2: back and we're like, like, where did that sounded familiar? 284 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 2: Where did that come from? And it's like, well, you 285 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: had that soul exchange where a gem was a lesson 286 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 2: was told to you. You just weren't ready for it then. 287 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 2: And I think that will help us require more patience 288 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: and empathy with one another of like we all want 289 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 2: the best for ourselves, we all want to be good 290 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 2: people and make the most of it. But sometimes there's 291 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 2: blocks and things in the way, or sometimes you gotta 292 00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 2: deal with something else in order to get to that. 293 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think it's important that we listen to 294 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 2: our feelings and intuitions. I read something the other day 295 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 2: that I thought was really really great. They were saying 296 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 2: that triggers, when one is triggered, it is one of 297 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 2: the greatest gifts you can ever get and one of 298 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: the best indicators that your body is giving you to 299 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: let you know, like we need to look into this. 300 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 2: It may not be bad like whoa, but it's that 301 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 2: voice or that thing that's a gift of like I 302 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: just want to bring this to your attention, like just 303 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 2: look at this, right. And I think sometimes we get 304 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: so caught up and overwhelmed and anxiety over triggers, but 305 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 2: their gifts right when our nervous system, when our body 306 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 2: is like ah, that's something, and it's ultimately trying to 307 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 2: protect you and alert you. And so I say all 308 00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: this as a like give you. We need to give 309 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 2: ourselves more grace, just more grace because life is lifing 310 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 2: all the time. But I really think it's just a 311 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 2: series of tests and it's just seeing how we're navigating 312 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 2: it to just go through, right. You can't force it. 313 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 2: You just got to go through it. 314 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: You gotta go through it. You have to go through 315 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: what's thrown in front of you and what you're meant 316 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: to go through, and it gives you clarity to continue 317 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 1: on and live your life and do your job and 318 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: be the best you you can be and bring your 319 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,679 Speaker 1: best self to whatever it is you're doing, which you, 320 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: my dear, have done with Shadow Force. 321 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 2: Oh thank you. 322 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: You are in the action world now, yeah, you are 323 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: kick ass. 324 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: Thank you. 325 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: Tell me about the movie, why you wanted to do it, 326 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: about your role. 327 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 2: So Joe Carnahan, which I was obsessed with with in 328 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,440 Speaker 2: particular when he did Smoking Aces I think it's a classic, 329 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 2: had reached out and he said he thought of me 330 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: for this role, which I was like, what, I was 331 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 2: blown away that he even would consider as such. And 332 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 2: he was like, I want it to bring in some 333 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 2: comedy and warmth to this movie yet still having all 334 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 2: the beautiful fun elements of, you know, an action movie. 335 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 2: And he felt as though this character and the character 336 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 2: other role who I'm partnering with with method Man perspectively 337 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 2: and Auntie could bring that to life. And I just 338 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 2: think what's so cool about this movie is that while 339 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 2: it is an action movie. What's really unique is that 340 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 2: it is targeting, to me from my perspective, not only 341 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: a female conscious by having the gender roles kind of flipped, 342 00:18:54,720 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: by having this woman being arguably the better assassin, as 343 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: well as like a single dad kind of right raising 344 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,159 Speaker 2: his son, but also seeing a black family at the 345 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 2: center of an action movie. I don't think we've ever 346 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 2: had that. So it has all these great elements of 347 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 2: like you know, femforward, a black family, a loving family, 348 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 2: international aspect to it in this sense of community and 349 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,920 Speaker 2: you know, going by any means necessary for fighting for 350 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 2: what's yours. So the themes of it was just so 351 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 2: great that I was like, yeah, yeah, sign me up. 352 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. So what's been fun about doing an action 353 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 1: based movie versus some of the other work you've. 354 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: Action requires, at least for me, trust because there are 355 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 2: elements when filming an action movie that you don't know 356 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,720 Speaker 2: about yet. Does that make sense? Like you they have 357 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: to add in sound and CGI and special effects, so 358 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 2: not that it feels empty, but there are like missing 359 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 2: parts does that make sense when filming it that later 360 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 2: have to be layered in where like something else, I 361 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 2: know what it is, I know I can see what 362 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 2: it is all these things are here, So that was 363 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 2: a really nice challenge. And it's also it's a lot 364 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 2: of synchronicity, meaning we were lucky enough to have about 365 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:30,640 Speaker 2: a month almost two months of training with a marine 366 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 2: specialist and so like the dutiful student and me was 367 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: like okay, okay, I got it. But then it's like 368 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of this right of the action element 369 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: but then also acting and because it's action, you want 370 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 2: to be super safe, but they make it look supernatural 371 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 2: and flow. So that was a great way to like 372 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: stretch my brain because it wanted to compartmentalize, you know 373 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 2: what I mean almost like can we do all the 374 00:20:57,480 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 2: action stuff and then do the acting stuff. I don't 375 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 2: do the core. That's totally what it felt like, right, 376 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 2: so I really have a lot of respect for people 377 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 2: who do that. And then to make it look so 378 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 2: effortless was really great. Also, uh tonally like delivery wise, 379 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 2: it's a bit more straight in regards to your delivery, 380 00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 2: which at first I was like, oh my gonna sound 381 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: like really monotone. But there's just there's like little things 382 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: stylistically that I honestly just had to like watch everyone 383 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 2: and take it in of like okay, okay, so that's 384 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,399 Speaker 2: how I do that and that. So it was really 385 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:47,719 Speaker 2: really cool to learn these new tools or ways of 386 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 2: acting in that action format. 387 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: So what's your number one tip to successfully kicking some butt? 388 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 2: Uh? Passion? 389 00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: Passion? 390 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 2: No, it really is passion, I think. So I found, 391 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,959 Speaker 2: like from an acting point of view, when it was like, okay, 392 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: you know, like you said, the choreography, you know it, 393 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 2: and when they say action, it's really of like the 394 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 2: connection of what's driving you to do what you're wanting 395 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 2: to do, you know what I mean, and just be 396 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 2: passionate about it, knowing you know what I mean? The 397 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 2: why is it? Because I realize, like you know, when 398 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 2: I started, I was like, oh, I get it, there's 399 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 2: a shooting a gun. It's like, no, why what is 400 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: the relationship? What did they do to you? What did 401 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 2: they do to your friend? Like? What is the reason? 402 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 2: And that is when I saw that it connected much 403 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 2: more profoundly. 404 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: Do you sound like you have the action bug? Like 405 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: you might want to do some more. 406 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 2: I think it's fun. I think it's really fun. I 407 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 2: think it stretches another side of my brain and I 408 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 2: never want to limit myself. So I think it's really 409 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 2: cool to have that option in your back pocket. 410 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: Maybe another action movie with you and someone I know 411 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,199 Speaker 1: at the top of your list Bradley Cooper. 412 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 2: Oh, that would be yeah. Project I'm thinking of in 413 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 2: particular too, that could be fun. He's a cool guy. 414 00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 2: He's a cool guy. He's a very hard worker, very sweet. 415 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 2: Like just watching in recent years like If a Star 416 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 2: is Born and the recent movie he did that man 417 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 2: is just he really is passionate and he's all in 418 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,959 Speaker 2: and there's so much humility, and I just in general, 419 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 2: I would love to be around as many creatives as 420 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 2: possible that have that kind of intention, that really care 421 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,600 Speaker 2: still possessed because there's a lot of smoke of mirrors 422 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 2: and other things in this industry that I feel like 423 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 2: you have to work harder to be focused. Then it 424 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:02,680 Speaker 2: requires more energy, right, So I really admire people at 425 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 2: the top of their game who I know have so 426 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 2: many things coming at them, and yet they choose, in 427 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:13,080 Speaker 2: my opinion, the right path, which is like good work, 428 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 2: hard or you know, hard working, good work, ethic, honest, honorable, 429 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 2: passionate people. 430 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: Not always easy to find, no, and it's. 431 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 2: Not their fault, right, Like it's almost in a weird 432 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 2: way intended that way to be all this other stuff. Yeah, 433 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: so it really means a lot. When I meet that, 434 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, wow, that took a lot of conscious effort. 435 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: So what's the I'm sure you can't say, or you're 436 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 1: keeping it close to your heart, but what's the type 437 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: of projects that you have in mind for you? 438 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: There is a movie, an older movie called to Catch 439 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: a Thief with Carrie Grant and I am blinking on 440 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 2: her name, Grace Kelly, and it is actually a Alfred 441 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 2: Hitchcock movie that is supposed to be adapted, and I 442 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 2: think that could be a really from project. 443 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: We're declaring it right now. Yes, I love that. I 444 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: love that for you. 445 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,120 Speaker 2: That's movie. 446 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: That's a good one. 447 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 2: A little spy, yeah yeah, great fashion set in the 448 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 2: South of France. 449 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, I'm in.

You've had so much success, You're so accomplished, 454 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: And when I meet people like you, I'm always very 455 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: interested because I don't think publicly we see the hardships right, 456 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: and rejections over the years. Was there ever a time 457 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: in your career that you can remember where you maybe 458 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: really wanted a roll and you had your whole heart 459 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: in it and it just didn't work out and you 460 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: had to pick yourself up and keep. 461 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 2: Going constantly, and I would say less of a role 462 00:25:54,920 --> 00:26:01,479 Speaker 2: and more of the This industry is a mare, and 463 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 2: there's constantly things that will come your way that challenges 464 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 2: you your worth. It's hard not to take it personal because 465 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 2: you know, I used to, I guess I still am 466 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 2: a musician, and so I used to always be jealous 467 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: of the instrumentalists because I felt as though, and this 468 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 2: could be wrong, but to me, they could quote unquote 469 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: hide behind their instrument and as a vocalist, I felt 470 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 2: so naked and quite literally like your heart is open. 471 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 2: It felt a lot, right, Yeah, And so similarly in 472 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 2: this industry, of course, you're literally portraying these roles. It's very, 473 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 2: very hard not to take this personally. It's filled with 474 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 2: tons of rejection. You're constant being compared and contrasted. It's 475 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 2: very competitive. There's strategy, there's so many layers to it, 476 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 2: and I think the biggest hardship has been staying in it. 477 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 2: Not because I've lost the passion, far from it, but 478 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 2: there's just constantly things that are coming at you. But 479 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 2: I will say the reason why I can speak to 480 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 2: you in this way is because of right, like when 481 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 2: I say the lessons and almost feels like and I 482 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe because it's in my scope, but the 483 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: entertainment business and at this level it's like life on speed. Right, 484 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 2: So we're an average person may have a really bad day, 485 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 2: like I don't know, once a month, like a really 486 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 2: bad day once a month. In this industry, it might 487 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 2: be once a week, right where you're like whoa, Okay, 488 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 2: this might be it, right, but you have to be 489 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 2: like no, okay, regroup, have your support around you. And 490 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 2: I've grown to take my time, reclaim my time, but 491 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 2: also give myself a beat. And I've been trying to 492 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 2: tell this to other loved ones too, of like, you 493 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 2: don't have to answer everyone immediately right in the moment. 494 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 2: If something's coming up by the thing they're asking, just say, 495 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 2: let me get back to you. They do it all 496 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 2: the time, right, But we as the talent or the 497 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,199 Speaker 2: thing of focus, feel like, oh okay, because sometimes we 498 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 2: don't make the right decisions for ourselves because we're trying 499 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:29,000 Speaker 2: to people. 500 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: Please or not seem difficult or whatever it may. 501 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, And so that's the stuff I think is 502 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: the hardest, continuing to challenge yourself, being open, but also 503 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 2: at the same time advocating for yourself. And so the 504 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 2: only way I know how to stay in this is 505 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,959 Speaker 2: to do those check ins, those scans, having a support 506 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 2: system around me, having a belief in something other than myself, 507 00:28:56,960 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: so it doesn't feel so incl and like it's engving 508 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 2: in on you, cause it's a lot. It's a lot. 509 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: Like I think people should have empathy for more artists, 510 00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,040 Speaker 2: Like there's a reason why. It's slightly off topic, but 511 00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 2: I think there is a reason why some of your 512 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: favorite musical or you know whatever, any kind of creative entity, 513 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,959 Speaker 2: there's reasons why sometimes they spiral or will have Like 514 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 2: it's a lot, and I don't think people will realize that. 515 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 2: And if you don't have the necessary tools and prioritizing 516 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: the care needed, there's a reason why some of the 517 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:39,160 Speaker 2: greatest artists we ever know haven't had long lives. It's 518 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 2: this weird, interesting exchange. And so I think it's a lesson, 519 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 2: but it's it's to say that, you know, I think 520 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 2: you can have it all. You just got to take 521 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 2: care of yourself and know when to be like, this 522 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 2: is going to be here, It's always going to be here. 523 00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 2: Let me take care of myself. 524 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: Especially when you have so much going on. I mean, 525 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: even here, you're doing this press tour for this new 526 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: movie that everybody's gonna go out watch. Right, We're gonna 527 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 1: go see that movie. We want to go see its 528 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,760 Speaker 1: shadow for us. But you're also filming things as you're 529 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: doing it. Aren't you currently filming yea only murders a 530 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: new season, right, So there's a lot you have to 531 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: protect your own well being while you're doing all of that. 532 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I'm very lucky my team has they've gotten 533 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 2: I think they know me very well and know like 534 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 2: before early in my career, I would say yes to everything, 535 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 2: and I find by me saying no to certain things, 536 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 2: I'm open and willing to do more if that makes couch. 537 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 2: When I said yes to everything, I burned out in 538 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: like two months. When I was more particular about what 539 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 2: I wanted, more, not only more things came to me 540 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 2: in abundance, but of the right things, but my longevity 541 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,600 Speaker 2: was able to sustain for far more. 542 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 1: We need you to be here forever. Don't you be 543 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,720 Speaker 1: burning out on us? Okay, yes, we need more work 544 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: from you, We need more art from you. How it 545 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: is only murders going than it. 546 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 2: Is so much fun. It literally honestly gets better and 547 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 2: better every season. I don't know how they do it, 548 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: but it literally gets better and better every season. And 549 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 2: the cast that we get every year, they just top. 550 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 2: It's beyond. 551 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: Do you have more scenes with Meryll's I know that's 552 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: what you wanted. You finally got it. 553 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, so we I've shot half of my episodes, uh, 554 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 2: so far and then I'll do the last half in 555 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 2: like two weeks, three weeks, and so yeah, I get 556 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 2: to real. 557 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you did it. You're doing it. Very blessed you're 558 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 1: doing it. And you know you you are a singer. 559 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: We alluded to that. Of course, you are a very 560 00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: accomplished singer on stage that we know and love. Do 561 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 1: you ever bust out a tune on set? 562 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 2: You? 563 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 3: No, not that never, not even with Selena Gomez. You 564 00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 3: aren't like, let's do what you West's interesting. This is 565 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 3: my theory on like karaoke. People who can actually sing 566 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 3: hate doing karaoke. I don't even like going no. 567 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 2: No, I've tried it, and then it's cringey because inside 568 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: you're like, you're flag at this, Like it's like little 569 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:16,000 Speaker 2: judgments going on in my head. People who actually can 570 00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 2: sing rarely sing. Selena is silent. You I've never heard her. 571 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 2: If she's in the best mood, she may hump and 572 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 2: you're like, right, Martin short constantly. He's actually a very 573 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 2: good singer. Actually, it's like it's giving like Broadway one 574 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 2: on one really, yeah, it's show. 575 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: Tunes and you don't jump in come on. 576 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 2: Unless they pay me to do that. On this episode 577 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 2: they have which they have that, which they definitely have. 578 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 2: No he no, but it's it's it's beautiful to see 579 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 2: I love to see him sing. But you know what, 580 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 2: I actually need to work on that. I I don't know. 581 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 2: I don't sing enough even for my own enjoyment. And 582 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 2: that's interesting, Like since becoming an actor, I haven't engaged 583 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 2: in that as much, and I need to, Okay, I 584 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:12,400 Speaker 2: definitely we. 585 00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: Look forward to more of that from you, for sure, Davine. 586 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 1: I could speak for hours with you. This is so 587 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: much fun. But as we wrap up, Yes, the name 588 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: of the show is called I've never said this before, 589 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: and it was born we were talking earlier from this 590 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: idea that I cover a lot of our carpets and 591 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: press junkets, and as you know, you get three minutes 592 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 1: or six minutes with the reporter and it's just not 593 00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,719 Speaker 1: real conversation. We all try our best, but it's so 594 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,400 Speaker 1: quick and we have to get the bites in. And 595 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 1: it was born from an idea of wanting to connect 596 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: with people on a more human level because we all 597 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: go through the same stuff, and when we talk about 598 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 1: it or share lessons or advice, I think we're better collectively. 599 00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 1: So with all of that being said, is there anything 600 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 1: today you can think of that maybe you've never said 601 00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 1: before in an interview that you want to share. 602 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: I think I probably have said some version of this, 603 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:07,959 Speaker 2: but I think I just want to really reiterate kind 604 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 2: of what you just said. Like I really wish people 605 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 2: would understand and know that the same life I live 606 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 2: in many ways is still the same life you live. 607 00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 2: Does that like you don't need to be a movie 608 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 2: star or a rock star or whatever, Like we all 609 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 2: go through the same things. They're just in different settings. 610 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: And so I just wish that people will give themselves 611 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: more grace, and I wish that people would be honest 612 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 2: and take down the masks so that they can connect, 613 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 2: because I think a lot of times we're scared to 614 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 2: be vulnerable and share with friends and loved ones what's 615 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 2: going on. And I think if we did, not only 616 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:02,320 Speaker 2: would we be healthier, but we will learn the lessons quicker. 617 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 2: I really so like these past two weeks, right, so 618 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 2: many people have called me and been like, girl, is 619 00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 2: mercury and retrograde? Because the hell? And I was like, 620 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 2: I think it is. I really think like everybody, And 621 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 2: I use as an example, right that all people from 622 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 2: all walks of life reached out to me and was like, girl, 623 00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:28,760 Speaker 2: I am going through it now. I could have lied 624 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 2: because of what they assume my life is. Right. I 625 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 2: think a lot of times people assume with success is 626 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: smooth sailing. One of the realest things Jay z Ever 627 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 2: said was more money, more problems, more success, more problems, 628 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 2: more anything. The more you have, the more you have 629 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 2: to deal with, point blank. Period. So I could have 630 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 2: lied and been like, oh really, oh so sorry, I 631 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 2: was going through it, and I say that to say it. 632 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 2: We don't just because people are. And I say this 633 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,080 Speaker 2: because it's such a social media driven world right now, 634 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 2: and there's so many people like all respect in the 635 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 2: world to influencers and how they've been able to, you 636 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 2: know what I mean, really catapult themselves and quite literally 637 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 2: create revenue and exposure for themselves that is amazing. I 638 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 2: think if we all could have a bit of that, 639 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 2: that's great. But in that I think now which is beautiful, 640 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:25,520 Speaker 2: that it inspires like anybody can make it, which I 641 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 2: love that aspect of it, because I do believe anyone can. 642 00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: But I think now there's this desire to reach for 643 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 2: fame or celebrity or whatever, and I think that's to 644 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:42,439 Speaker 2: be less of the goal of what we're going for, 645 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:47,399 Speaker 2: and I think it's more of the community and the collective. 646 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 2: And so I think, like, you know, just because a 647 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 2: lot of people are aspiring for that, but please understand 648 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 2: it comes with its whole new you know, I mean, 649 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: bag of tricks. And so more so than anything, I'm 650 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,040 Speaker 2: just kind of like life is gonna life me the 651 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,720 Speaker 2: same way it's gonna life you, and we just need 652 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:13,439 Speaker 2: to connect with one another and not let these other 653 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 2: things and signs of status and stuff get in the way. 654 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 2: Because I'm also very well aware even being in this 655 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 2: position tomorrow you may never see me, you know what 656 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,399 Speaker 2: I mean, Like all that I've accomplished. You know how 657 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 2: the world is, Like, I'm not gonna do You're not 658 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:33,799 Speaker 2: gonna find me, no scandal. I'm not messy like that, 659 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 2: but do you know what I mean? Like I could 660 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 2: be hot and then it'd be like what was her name? Right? 661 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 2: So I gotta feel good about who I am and 662 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 2: what I've contributed in the legacy that I'm creating, so 663 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 2: that I'm not relying upon that. That's why I don't 664 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 2: wake up every morning being like, oh why I'm an 665 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:55,040 Speaker 2: oscar because okay, cool that happened. Now what else? Right? 666 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 2: Like okay, cool, that's that. What else can you bring 667 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 2: to the table outside of your career? How are you 668 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 2: as a human being? What other things are interesting about you? 669 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: And I like to surround myself around a mix of 670 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 2: people where it isn't all just industry people, or if 671 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 2: it is industry people, like we were saying, grounded people 672 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,959 Speaker 2: because life is so much important, more important, And that's 673 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 2: why I became an actor and I choose the roles 674 00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 2: that I do. I like to play women who have 675 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 2: complexities and stuff of them and making the ordinary extraordinary, 676 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 2: right Like, I intentionally like to go for more blue 677 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 2: collar like women and make them into these superheroes. I 678 00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:43,960 Speaker 2: looked out having this action movie, but you know what 679 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 2: I mean, who's actually kicking butt? But let's also give 680 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 2: voice to the voiceless of these women who are just 681 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 2: getting by in their day to day, right because that's 682 00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 2: really important. The fancy stuff is fine, we have the 683 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 2: fancy moments, but life is really more of that stuff. 684 00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: And so I just hope people are encouraged of like, 685 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 2: you don't have to have what you think this life 686 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 2: is in order to be special and understand whatever you're 687 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 2: dealing with in Wisconsin, I'm dealing with the same thing here. 688 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 2: It's the same thing. It's just on a different scale 689 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:26,480 Speaker 2: or a different amalclamation, but it's the same. And I 690 00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 2: think though allow people to have empathy. 691 00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you, thank you for sharing that. I think 692 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 1: it's really powerful to hear and it's why we all 693 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: kind of yearn and search for connection because we all 694 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 1: do feel the same things. So I couldn't love that more. 695 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 1: I also couldn't love more that. Here's my phone for 696 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:46,520 Speaker 1: those three hundred and sixty five inspirational messages, Avine, what 697 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: a joy.
