Most Men I Know Rely On Women

I Think It's Important To Present Role Models For Young Women Coming Up. I Really Do Believe You Can't Be What You Can't See, And Representation Matters. So, For Me, It's The Idea Of Putting Women In Media In Ways That Present Them As Having Power, Being Heard, Being True To Themselves, And Done From The Perspective Of Women.

Being A Creative Person Is A Really Personal Process So There Is No One-size-fits-all Advice, That's Kind Of The First Thing I'd Say. Because Everybody's Goals Are Different. Everybody's Talents Are Different. Some Women That I'm Talking To Want To Create A Television Show. Some Women Want To Be A Director. They Want To Use Comedy In Different Ways, And I Find That Really Fascinating. The Main Thing I Would Say Is, Start! Just Do It. Keep Going. When People Come At You With The Negativity And The Nos, You've Got To Ignore It. Push Through.

As A Producer, I Really Get To Tell Stories That I Care About In A Way That I Want To. I Get To Shape Them. I Get To Choose The Collaborators. That's Really Gratifying As A Storyteller. And Also, Frankly, It's Really Fun To Create Jobs For Other People.

I'm Very Grateful To Be In A Position Now Where I Have A Lot More Control To Tell The Stories I Want To Tell. I Feel No Obligation To Tell Any One Story. I Will Tell You My Interest Mostly Lies In Telling Stories About Empowered Women, But I Don't Feel It's An Obligation. But I Do Feel Like I Am Servicing A Voice.

It's Really Fun To Watch Yourself Disappear In The Movie Every Day.
