Her MS Diagnosis Was a RELIEF + Why Returning to Acting Means EVERYTHING w/ Selma Blair #selmablair

Okay guys, just FYI, this interview was recorded before the recent events involving Selma Blair, but I have to tell you, I have such a soft spot for Selma Blair. She's funny, she's incredibly open, and she's been through more than most of us can imagine. What I loved about sitting down with her was how willing she was to talk about EVERYTHING. The hard stuff, the personal stuff, and of course, the ridiculous stuff. And trust me, we found plenty to laugh about! Selma opens up about where things stand with her MS today, why finally getting her diagnosis was actually a relief, and what it feels like to be back doing what she loves: acting! We also get into dating, insecurities, and some pretty unbelievable experiences we BOTH had trying to make it in Hollywood. And of course, we bond over being boy moms, including the fact that our teenage sons apparently need to GPS-track us. I mean, who's parenting WHO here?! Selma also shares some really personal stories about her mother, who loved her fiercely but wasn't exactly handing out compliments, and how those experiences have shaped the way she parents today. Oh, and then there's Scout, Selma's adorable service dog, who decided to cozy up with ME during our interview. What a sweet pup! But here’s what makes this conversation so special to me is getting to know Selma beyond the roles and the headlines. She's a mom who loves her son fiercely, a woman who's faced some incredibly difficult moments, and someone who's still figuring things out, just like the rest of us. I'm grateful she shared so much of herself with me, and I hope you'll listen with the same love and compassion I felt sitting across from her. 🩷CONNECT WITH JENNY IG: https://www.instagram.com/jennymccart...
