She said there was a period after the tv series, Girlfriend ended in 2008 that she wasn’t sure that she would make it in Hollywood. She said that time period helped make her the person she is today. It allowed me to continue to grow as a person and to realize I was deserving and worthy. I could own my success but I could also own what might look like failure.
