Transcript

Bad mentioned there was a time in your life where you didn't think you wanted to have kids. And now you think you do. Talk to me about that shift. There's, like, two sides to it. One was the societal pressure of being a woman. You are here to bear children. I'm like, go fuck yourself. No, I'm not. Also, being a woman in Hollywood, and it's like, you only have so many years before your prime is over. And if you use them on it's like, it's no much pressure that I was like, I'm just taking this off of the table for now. The other side was much more deep rooted in, I refuse to raise a child in a dysfunctional home. I refuse to raise a child where they believe that they are not loved. I never felt like that was possible because of what I saw as a child. And then as an adult, something clicked eight months ago. This is, like, really recent. I was talking to my therapist, and I was like, I mean, if I could just have consistency, like, if I could have a kid with my best friend, I would love that. And she goes, hey, you can. That's literally you rank pick your partner. You can have a kid with your best friend. And I it, like, mic drop. All the other youth that I feel now, like, to to see that through a child's eyes, like, it just feels so beautiful. And so it was, at one point, the thing I wanted the best. I was, like, I I don't wanna carry on this bloodline. Let it end here. Rank now I'm like, no. I can I can change my narrative? I can rewrite history, and I tier rank I can decide what this looks like, rank I have the power to do that. Oh my god. Now it's so annoying. Everyone's like, are you sure you want them? You've been saying for years. You don't. And that's like, hey. What if what if you were in my situation? Would you want them? My ovaries? I can do whatever the fuck I want. I want them now.
