For our Winter 2025 Cover Star, navigating life in the public eye has not always been easy. If anything, it has made her stronger.

“The media was very cruel when I was in my 20s,” she recalls. “To me, but not just to me. They got a lot wrong for a lot of young women who were in the public eye at that time, in a way that I think is absolutely shameful. To say [those experiences] made me stronger is a very thinly veiled way of describing the impact that that time in my life had on me. What it really did was it taught me how to focus and prioritize the things that matter.”
