While Reese stressed the importance of feeling proud of his financial independence, Reese recalls a moment when the 21-year-old daughter was Ava came home in tears from the second grade. Ava’s classmates told her that her mother was ‘one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood’, which made the young girl feel ‘so embarrassed’.
Reese recounts, ‘I said,’ Never be ashamed of a woman who makes money. There are women around the world who do not have an opportunity or training or the ability to make money. And the more women who earn more money will give away more money, take care of their societies, take care of their communities, do more with that money. So never feel bad when your mom makes money, and never ever feel bad when you make money, and do not be ashamed or ashamed when it is more than your partner. ”
The actress, who has become a prolific Hollywood producer, concluded by saying that she has an ‘interesting relationship with the word’ power ‘, and all I can think about is that I’m just hoping in my lifetime, I can more women help make more money Financial stability is freedom. ‘
This is not the first time Reese has spoken out about the importance of shifting how society talks about pay inequality. In a December 2019 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she said she was confused about why it seemed “troublesome” to some people that she earned a $ 2 million per episode report to play in Apple TV +. The Morning Show.
