Angelina Jolie's advice for Generation Z to overcome challenges

In an interview with 'The Wall Street Journal', Angelina Jolie shared on how she handled difficulties with life, "Go right through it. Feel it, be in it, don’t avoid it. Go completely in it. Feel everything and then go right through it and get out the other end. Many of these things you don’t have a choice and you know it. What’s that expression? It's how well you walk through the fire—but you walk through it".

"By fully engaging with challenging experiences, people learn to navigate adversity, building resilience that is crucial for long-term mental health. This process fosters a sense of accomplishment and self-efficacy, empowering individuals to handle future stressors more effectively".

"In an era where curated online personas are the norm, there is immense value in embracing genuine emotional experiences. By being in it, individuals are encouraged to acknowledge their true feelings, facilitating deeper self-understanding and acceptance. This authenticity is essential for meaningful interpersonal connections and overall psychological well-being".

"It's been 20 years since Angelina stole Brad from Jen, but she still hasn't forgiven her," the insider went on. "And there are plenty of powerful people in the industry who are on her side.

"Angie has told friends that he blanketed Hollywood with disturbing stories about how she willingly destroyed his marriage to Jen and then treated him like crap.

"This, she said, was supported by Jen and her showbiz allies who have bad-mouthed Angle all over town, ruining her reputation and possibly even her career."

But also, there’s something about being an actor where often, you’re expected to become a blank slate in between characters. You almost have to keep yourself an undefined being so you can morph into different things."

"It was one of many things I did in my life that was separate from film and being on camera—that was me and not a character. So I wasn’t just staying a blank slate, even literally". 

"To have a self is very important when a lot of your job is to transform into other selves".
