running focus training
Luckily I had just finished a Marvel film so I was already in a training mentality and then this movie happened and I was really just trying to focus on like as much cardio as possible because in this film I do a lot of running and a lot of running in 100 degree heat in Austinit was like a sprintit was very much like all one shot running around, sprinting. So I had to build up my cardio to be able to get to that place and also not to like, die.
mother actresses mets
Before I did 'How I Met Your Mother,' I was not considered a comedic actress.
mean able earth
I never want to lose my Canadian-ness...and when I say Canadian-ness, I mean down-to-earth. I like being able to not take myself seriously and to not feel entitled.
kindness self people
Kindness is something that I feel is leaving us a little bit - people are getting more self-involved.
men walking-dead fables
I'm a big fan of a lot of graphic novels - 'Fables,' 'Y: The Last Man' and 'The Walking Dead,' which I like a lot more.
young about-yourself camaraderie
There's something cool about traveling when you're young. There's a sense of camaraderie. You learn more about yourself.
needs models
Models need to be unionized.
mom thinking patient
I think that being a mom has made me a better person. I'm much more patient and much more chill than I was before.
mom home jealous
I feel very jealous towards women who can say, "I'm going to stay home and be a mom." I wish that's what fulfilled me but I like to work and I have to have something for myself.
school marine would-be
I wanted to be a marine biologist my whole life until I graduated high school. And even now, I'm still like, 'Maybe I'll just quit the biz and go to Santa Cruz and study marine biology and have my own research center in the Bahamas.' Yeah, I'm sure it would be just that smooth.
play luck able
I’ve read a lot of scripts and I’m really luck to be able to play a woman who’s funny and can be charming and has a mischievous side to her as well. I’m really lucky.
children responsibility people
You become responsible for a human being, and a lot of people talk about how they've never felt love like this before. You hear all these things before you have a child, and they're all kind of true. It's just dealing with the overwhelming responsibility of like I'm the protector of this child that affected me the most.
pain healthy important
I do Pilates because it's important for me to have a healthy back when I'm 70 so I'm not hunched over and in pain. That's more important to me than being thin.
crazy long style
I love macaroni and cheese. I could eat it every meal of the day. It used to be sushi, but these days I cannot stop eating mac and cheese. I haven't had it from a box in a long time, but I'll make it homemade style with four types of cheeses, lots of milk, maybe a little ketchup. I don't know, I'm crazy like that.
