She added that she hopes she can keep podcasting for a long time, and we do too!

That’s not all, either, as working onUnqualifiedhad an unintended impact on Faris.

“It feels therapeutic and liberating to be in control of my story,” she added.

“It was a side effect that I didn’t really expect.”

“It’s understandable that people seemed so invested in our happiness together,” Faris toldPeople.

“Chris and I have a great friendship and Jack is so happy and so loved.”

Later on in 2017, Faris started dating cinematographer Michael Barrett.

And then November 2019,TMZreported she was spotted wearing a giant ring on a particular finger.

Additionally,Pratt moved on with Katherine Schwarzenegger.

But that wasn’t lost on Faris, who made the decision to publish it regardless of personal events.

He even wrote the foreword!

“I’ve never done anything like this,” she continued.

“I get to hide behind characters.”

For that alone, she should be proud.

“They wouldn’t want their kids to see a weaker version of themselves.”

Alongside powerhouse actress Allison Janney, Faris kept America laughing for years, even when times got tough.

And while the pressures of aging in Hollywood are real, Faris isn’t sweating about things too much.

“But the larger picture is that I feel happier as I get older.”

And while it used to fill her with dread, with maturity came a more nuanced perspective on life.

“There’s a wonderful liberation.”

There’s hope for us all, then!
