What was the biggest obstacle you
have had to face and overcome in you
life?
good to the world. But I’m very, very lucky
and grateful for being able to have this
opportunity to do this.
I guess that my biggest obstacle is
overcoming my own fears, and that’s
something that I always am challenged
with, but I really feel grateful for the life
that I have and for not having to deal with
such big problems and issues ...
When you understood the
responsibility that you had to young
women all over the world because of
your celebrity, when did that hit home
for you?
You know, after I’ve done “Wonder
Woman” I felt like I had such a big
reach to people, and I just wanted to do
something good, and I want to use my
reach and my platforms to get to as many
people and shed light on these amazing,
incredible women’s stories. So maybe
ignite something in them and create a
movement of people that just want to do
“The Island at the Top of the
World” (Available now)
It keeps on hitting, but ... I really started
to understand the influence that I have on
people, on younger people, as soon as in
2017, as soon as “Wonder Woman” was
out, by the feedback that I got and the
reaction that I got from so many different
people. And then you start to think about,
OK, so I need to really be responsible and
be truthful to anything that I spread out
there to the world with my social media,
with the interviews that I give because
people really listen. Sometimes, I remember
when I was younger and I used to give
interviews when I just started acting or
modeling, and I remember thinking to
myself, “Who’s going to listen to this? They
don’t care about what I have to say.” And
slowly and gradually I realized that people
actually listen.
I’m a mother of two girls and my belief
system is very close to Wonder Woman’s
belief system. I’m all about love and
compassion and peace and positivity, and
try to make the world a better place as
much as I can, and that was a very, very
natural fit for me.
