This Is Us (2016)] I've had women - average women, older women, teenagers - who say to me, "Your role and this show has changed my life." That makes all the struggle, all the ramen noodles, all the times when I couldn't pay my bills, all the times where I was like, "I can't do this," worth it. Sometimes I cry on the way to the set still. There is something that happens when you are grateful: You continue to keep receiving blessings. So I will always be grateful.
