My Biggest Challenge Will Be To Play

And What Happens A Lot Of Times When - Let's Just Speak Specifically White And Black - When White Or Black People Feel Misunderstood When It Comes To Talking About Race, They Immediately Get Defensive.

My Husband Didn't Want The Divorce, But I Did. So There Was A Lot Of Bitterness Initially. Once We Got To The Space Where We Understood That We Have The Most Important Thing In The World In Common; No One Else Shared That Commonality. Our Son Is Priceless, And In Order To Give Him The Best, We Have To Be Better To Each Other. Although We Are Still Divorced, We Still Call Each Other "family." It Was A Journey To Get There, But It's A Beautiful Place To Be.

I Know In My Own Marriage I Stayed In It To Provide My Son With What I Thought Was A Stable Background And To Give Him What I Thought Was The Family Life A Child Should Have With Two Parents. But That Isnt Always The Best Way, And It Took Me Taking My Son To Therapy After The Divorce To Really See It.

A Modern Mom To Me Is Not Always Someone That Juggles A Career And Family. A Modern Mom Is A Woman Who Takes Care Of Herself On The Inside And The Outside.

My Biggest Challenge Will Be To Play The Totally Submissive Woman. It Takes A Toll On You When You Play Someone Who's Far Removed From Your Personality.
