“Growing up in any sort of spotlight is difficult. Everything is magnified.” — Holly Marie Combs

Life as an only child can be a bit lonely, and when I had Finley, I decided that if I could give him a big family, I wanted to as much as possible.

Personally, I have nothing to fall back on, and that creates a weird ambition that you have to be good at acting because you can't be good at anything else. I wish I had gone for my degree - that acting wasn't this be-all-and-end-all.

My husband is very supportive - he wants me to work but understands I also want to be with the kids.

You never feel like you're 100 percent at either one. I don't ever feel like I'm the best actress I can be or the best mother I can be.
