I Really Enjoy The Direct Dialogue With

There's More Empathetic Representations Than We're Used To Seeing. I Honestly Feel Like In The Early Days Of Hollywood, Women Did Have Those. Women Had Very Traditional Roles In Society Of Wife And Mother, But When They Went To The Movies, They Got To See Women Be, Like, Really Cool, Amazing Characters And Femme Fatales And All Of This. And Then There Was Just This Systemic Reaction Where It Was All About, "how Do We Make Money?" And Everybody Wants To Sell Things To Boys. And Then Women's Entertainment Became Devalued In A Way That I Think Is Disrespectful And Hurtful.

I Don't Think There's One Right Way To Do Anything. There's No One Best Way To Be A Woman. There's No Best Way To Be A Mentor. I'm Just Trying To Be Me And Be Authentic And Live My Truth And Be As Inclusive And Interested In Other Human Beings As Possible. I'm An Actor By Training, Which Means That I Study Human Beings And Human Behavior. That's What I Try To Do And What I Love To Do.

I Mean Time Management Is A Big Factor In My Life. I'm A Very Organized Person. You Can Only Do One Thing At A Time, So That's The Main Way I Do Everything. When I'm With My Kids, I'm With My Kids. When I'm Directing A Movie, I'm Directing A Movie. When I'm Making Magic Mike, I'm Making Magic Mike. So You Just Really Have To Fragment And Focus.

I Have A Production Company Because This Is The Only Job I Know And This Is The Only Career I Have And The Only Industry I've Ever Worked In And The Only Contacts I Have. It's Like Why Wouldn't I Produce?

Most Men I Know Rely On Women To Do All The Literal Dirty Work.
