And that gave me some relief to know that I could travel anywhere in the world for whatever reason if it was Baywatch or Playboy and I could talk about animal rights. And that's what I've been doing to this point. And this is when my sons kind of stepped in and said, Mom, but... We want to tell your story because we know you're capable of so much more too in your career.

And it's time to focus on you and your career. And you can still do favors for other people, but to focus on what you love. People always ask me, why didn't you do these movie roles? I said, well, these movie roles were not being presented to me. and the relationships really were taking over my life. And I was raising two boys in kind of a chaotic environment where I needed to be with them.

And from my own experience as a child, I wanted to be with them. I didn't want anybody to look after them other than me.

Right. Well, that's part of it. And yeah, I did a lot of favors for friends. I got to work with a lot of incredible photographers and do cameos. If it was either for even my brother's friends, I just felt like, okay, they can get this movie made if I do this little funny thing as myself. But these weren't good for me. These were good for other people. And that's what my kids were saying.

You've got to stop doing that, mom. Like, you get to be you now. You get to challenge yourself. And I've always been carrying this secret. I feel like I've known I was capable of more, but I didn't know what. And doing Broadway really excited me and really felt like, oh, you know, I do have a lot to give. Because if I can do that, I can do anything.

Well, and it was wonderful because they wanted me to do the role full strength, not watered down. They knew I was capable of it. And so it was, I don't know if I could sing or dance or act on stage, but I felt very comfortable, not comfortable on stage, just free. And I felt like I was home on stage. I really loved it, even though it was so scary.

You're vibrating backstage before you get out there. But when you get out there, you just feel safe. You feel like no one can hurt you out there.

It was another feeling just like this where I was a painfully shy girl and I hated that about myself. I hated it. It was debilitating. It was paralyzing. And I needed to do something to break free of that. And that was why I said yes to Playboy, not thinking that I could ever. It was just a cover. It wasn't nudity or anything. This was just the cover.
