I got to meet them when we dedicated the stage and just feel so humbled around them. I want to only honor. You can’t match him, so there’s no need to try, but do it continuously, and have their blessing and feel what they are doing is supporting that legacy.

We're a show about 'the other people.' And I think everyone has a little bit of 'not belonging' in them.

I definitely became more aware of how much I was becoming more and more clingy as they pulled away, which is a natural thing for boys to do. It’s been a real exercise in patience and also trusting that they’re not going to go away forever and that this is part of a normal pulling away. after thinking about it more, and realizing obviously I ’m trained as a scientist of both the male and the female body and as a mom of two boys, it was something that obviously I had some experience.

I think being a girl has its own set of pressures, which are very different from those of boys, a lot of the mixed messages girls get are more about appearance. ‘ You’re perfect just the way you are, ’ except that every image in the media indicates that you’re not.
