1 小时 22 分钟Hey, it's your friend, Mal, and welcome to the Mal Robbins Podcast.
How many times have you tried to escape your life by plopping down on the couch,
turning on the TV,
and just disappearing into your favorite show and the characters that you're watching?
Well, what if I told you,
as Shonda Rhimes was writing and producing some of the most successful shows in the history of television?
Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, Bridgerton, she herself was doing the exact same thing,
escaping her life through the imaginary worlds that she had created.
Shonda was deeply introverted, afraid of everything.
All she did was work and her life was getting smaller and smaller and smaller.
And then her sister said something that changed everything.
Shonda spent the next year saying, yes, to everything that scared her.
And the result?
It changed her entire life, her personality, her happiness,
her body, the way she was able to be creative.
Well, today you're going to hear one of the most personal interviews that Shonda has ever given.
And Shonda will tell you, if you feel small, if you're tired of saying yes to everybody else,
if you're done with letting fear dictate your life, she knows what that feels like.
And she's also going to tell you there's a bigger possibility for your life just waiting for you that you're more capable than you know.
But it's not an escaping it.
