Of course it was Mamma who both stopped my career and crystallized my determination to resume it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My mother gave up a good part of her career to look after me.
Both of my parents had a change of career. My mum was a nurse, and now she's a college lecturer.
My career choice was to be a mother.
My wife came into my life, and my mother still wanted to be the boss.
And my mother caught wind of this. She never had really tried to guide my career or really had any say in my life as an adult, but this was the one time she said she would never speak to me again if I quit acting.
I took a long period off to be a mom.
My mother turned into a professional widow. She couldn't understand why I wanted to be an engineer; she thought I should be a chicken farmer.
Motherhood has brought me many joys and insights, but the new perspective it granted me on the role I had inadvertently played in young women's lives for the 2 decades I spent in the modeling industry was downright sobering.
I quit my job, and went ashore to become a writer.
Motherhood was my career. I'm totally satisfied with that.
