I grew up understanding the pros and cons of what you’re getting into and knowing what comes with your job. I like to keep my private life private, and then work is work. I feel so far I’ve had a really good balance with that.
I’ve only ever known growing up across different countries – to me it’s just fun.
People are quick to jump to conclusions.
I don’t really have a favorite song. Music is such a big part of who I am, and speaks to so many different emotions inside me, that I don’t have an all-time favorite.
Snow White has always been one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. To be able to say, “I’m going to be Snow White” – it’s crazy. It’s an honor.
I think the big thing is the fairy tale. It’s taking old folk fairy tales and retelling them in modern day. I think it’s just taking you out of everyday life, and everyone loves a good fairy tale.
Wearing a corset, a ball gown, heels and a swan hat with wings to fight in the forest gave me a whole new appreciation for everyday clothes, because you really become that alter ego while wearing those costumes in those environments on the set. They just influenced everything you tried to do.
I like to think of myself as a very passionate person, and as very determined.
The idea that I get to travel and do what I love and call it a job is just a blessing.
I am whole just as I am. I am defined not by my life experiences but by how I let them affect me and how I handle myself in each situation.
No matter what I’ve endured in the past, what I’ve put myself through, or what others have done to me, I have the ability and the will to move forward. I will not give up. I will not undervalue or underestimate my capabilities.
Be you and embrace your differences as things that make you unique and special. “Different” shouldn’t be considered confusing, negative, or something that divides us. It should be a quality we applaud and admire within ourselves and others.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
Love will find you again, And you can never, ever change yourself for anyone or change yourself to fix the relationship. So if it isn’t healthy, say good-bye.
My worth is not defined by their actions because their actions are not a reflection of my worth.
Sometimes we need to experience what we don’t like in order to know what we do like.
My hard work was expected rather than exceptional. It’s not that my dad ever told me or even alluded to the fact that I was a failure, but my actions no longer got his unprompted attention or praise, so I constantly felt that I wasn’t doing enough. That I wasn’t enough.
Can’t look to someone else to be my everything or rely on them to make me feel whole.
No relationship is greater than the one I have with myself. I just need to trust my gut, follow my instincts, and when someone shows me who they are, believe them.
When people point out your differences as negative, it’s only because they’re insecure themselves.
