En colaboración con Eikas. collaboration with ACAST. Hillary Duff, welcome to Serrara Landuda. I can't believe I'm saying this out loud. Like our inner childs are going wild. Bienvenida, Serrara Landuda. Such a pleasure to have you here in this space with us. Thank you. Thanks for having me. Such a dream come true. I've admired you since we were young. And I went to to your concert and I was so excited. I screamed and I had a lovely time. So I would like to know as we start, who is Hillary Duff now at this time in place in your life? Oh my gosh. What a starting question. We go deep here. Yeah, yeah, I can tell. I love it, I'm ready. Gosh, I am a 38 year old mama for and wife. And I'm like more me than I've ever been. I feel like I'm on this really exciting new slash old journey that feels like, you know, this fresh breath, but also like a discovery of past meets present in like a dream sequence. Do you know what I mean? Like it's really cool to be doing something that I know how to do but in the in the stage of my life where I feel the most confident in like my knowing. You know what I mean? Yeah. That's who I feel like I am right now. I absolutely understand you. I think growing up brings you this beautiful confidence on who you are. I agree. Welcome. Hillary, you were projected to millions when we were teenagers, no? How did all of that bringing shape your inner voice? But also, I'm even more curious of how do you arrive to this place that you're describing now? Because you must probably look at that time and be like, wow, how different it's been. No? So how did that shape the Hillary that was a teenager? And then if you could walk us through who Hillary became or is today? I could probably talk about the topic for hours. Eight hours. There's a lot of complexities on that subject matter and I don't even know if I fully understand it yet, like in all the corners of it. But I will say that it gave me great purpose. Like having such an important job, meaning so much to people, being a role model, you know, having a very adult, having adult responsibilities kind of thrust upon you. But I got like a badass work ethic because of it. And I learned a lot about navigating adults. I felt a responsibility to be a good role model and I think it wasn't until later that I rebelled against that and didn't like that responsibility so much as I was trying to form myself. And like looking to see who was like inspiring me, but I had a lot of fun. And it just, it took me getting into my late 20s, early 30s to like unpack some of the the more negative sides of that. But for the most part, I had some opportunities and I got to live out a lot of dreams, which is a big thing that doesn't happen to people necessarily very early on in their life. For sure. And to become more you or find that inner person that was living there, did you have to take off certain things that were put to you or like how, how was that process? Did you have to like go aside from all that noise? Because I, I can never relate to what you were going through now. But I think of myself and of us as teenagers because we've been best friends for eternity and we were so confused. So to have so much responsibility at a niche where you don't even know who you are, I don't know. Was it coming to your 30s? Was it like how do I become more me by taking off all this that was put onto me or what was it like? I think it was partially that. And I, you know, some of my actions were doing that without me maybe being conscious of it. Like after I did my last tour, I was like, cool, I'm shutting everything down. I want to do this anymore. And I think it was just the pressure of like employing so many people and meaning so much people and not really knowing how to like process all of that, like love and attention. like wondering if it was actually for me or just for like the me that everybody thought they knew and loved in this specific way, but if it got outside of that way, would they still love or care or be there? Like it was a lot of like very complex things. And then I decided to have a baby. So I think I was so desperate for something to just be mine and be a responsible person of the world. You get when you're on tour and you have so many people taking care of you, you go from point A to point B to point C and then you start it over again. So you're like venue,, hotel, bus, venue, hotel, bus, venue, hotel. Like,

and you're like, days are scheduled for you and people like

figure out getting food for you and your wardrobe and you're that you're like, I think at a certain point, I was like, what do I like? What how do I do? I know how to take care of myself? Can I cook anything? What am I like a week alone in my house without anybody there doing it.

Yeah, when I'm not told what I should be doing.

Yeah, and so I think, you know, in my house without anybody there doing it. Yeah, when I'm not told what I should be doing, yeah. And so I think, you know, in my mid-twenties, I got married, had a baby really quick, and I was like grateful to like start just having so much to focus on that like the other stuff. I didn't care as much. I didn't care to like uphold reputation or like, you know, fight to get outside of this box that everybody put me in. I think I just was like, oh, I have this thing to focus on and that's really real and tangible. And then the other stuff kind of just continued to grow. What is the biggest expectation that you've had to let go? Is it one that others put on you or one that you put on yourself? Like what has been that one expectation that maybe I hope you've liberated from, but like that you've carried, but is it the expectations of the other people or the ones you've said for yourself? Because as I'm listening to you, I can't imagine as you grow up with so much responsibility, also the expectations people have work wise and schedule wise. So like, what is the hardest expectation to let go of? One, I am hard on myself. So, same. Yes. I think trying to find a way to be nice to myself and kind and like actually generous to myself of like, you did this this and you had to show up and you had to do the work and have the reputation or be a certain way. No one did that for you. You had to do that. It's really hard. I don't know why as females, we have such a time like being confident in like what we bring to the table

Mm-hmm and our worth and then our worth to ourselves like just the private talks that you have with yourself It's I feel like constantly a journey, but as I've gotten older it's gotten easier to be kind to her And realize that she's like a badass, you know Yes.

It's like you did that to what I was doing.

Yeah, but I think, I'm trying to think, I think just being an actor, being a public facing person, like all of those things make it put you in a position where you're constantly criticized and you're, I know I got the reputation of being the good girl forever. And that was like all fine and well until I was like, what did I, like I played a role on TV that was relatable. So I guess that was like, you know, when I was coming up, it was a very like, I was just talking about this in an interview and they were like, you were like, there was like the good girl or the slut. And I was like, it is so crazy. That is the time I came up in. And if like you dressed a certain way, you were a slut, which is a crazy term, you know, or you were good and you better be good. But since you're good, we're going to try to find all the ways that you're not good and put it in us weekly or whatever, you know? And so like put you on a pedestal, but then see how we can bring you down from that.

Yeah, yeah.

So. and we're gonna try to find all the ways that you're not good and put it in us weekly or whatever, you know? And so-

Like, put you on a pedestal,

but then see how we can bring you down from that. Yeah, yeah. So I think that was a reputation that was kind of like thrust upon me. And I was like, I don't know if I'm good or bad. I think I'm just me. Yeah. I'm both. be both. Yeah, and I think, well, I think that's the cool part is like being like, I can be both,

and I will be both. And, and I think, well, I think that's the cool part, is like being like, I can be both. And I will be both. And like there's so many like layers and textures to, you know, being female. Um, that it was, it was harder to kind of like fight the stigmas that were like put on me without like rebelling so much and like, kind of doing things that didn't feel like myself. Mm- didn't feel myself to break a mold. Do you still feel I identify so much with the good girl? It's kind of like a curse and a blessing that if that's where you are placed on, do you still think you fight? Because then the good girl doesn't have opinions. The good girl can't say no. That's not, or or a limit or like this is not how I want to do it or can't experiment like a good girl is always supposed to be like like do you still fight that good girl inner voice? Like it's this weird combination of like my career and also I'm from Texas so like know, Southern people have this southern way of being like very polite and I like that part of my personality, but I also think it like has ties to exactly what you're saying and doesn't feel natural and doesn't feel like something you have to to like constantly uphold. And saying no is something I've gotten really good at.

And I think that... doesn't feel natural and doesn't feel like something you have to like constantly uphold.

And saying no is something I've gotten really good at. And I think that it ties, if I can like bring this around to my new record, like there's things that I say on the record that I haven't said previously before. And some of those things are quite real and exposing and you know it definitely took a few therapy

sessions to be like is this okay and like you know asking almost permission to say things that are really a part of my life and really real to me. So it's just hard and it's confusing to be a female honestly at age, I think, but it's becoming easier and easier. I love that. Now that you're talking about your new record, I would love to dive there because did this few years that you were off give you just like a different way of wanting to express things because it feels like this album as much as it's fun. It runs deep. Like there's nostalgia, there's hard questions there. There's conversations, there's questions about love, about life, about growing up, about versions of ourselves that were left behind. why now and yeah, just about
