Very few of their balls are plastic, right?

But a lot of mine are, because I've had time to sort of work on my career and put me first and blah, blah, blah.

But yeah, it's very interesting this idea of balance, because I just don't think it exists.

I think it's constantly pivoting, and it's pivot fatigue for the rest of your life.

Hey everyone, welcome back to On Purpose.

I'm so grateful and so excited, because I've been looking forward to this episode for a very, very long time.

And I know that you're all in for a real, real treat.

Now you already know, I guess today is none other than Christen Bowel.

She needs no introduction, but for those of you who want to know all about her incredible life,

she's an amazing actress, philanthropist, New York Times bestselling author, and entrepreneur.

She's well known to television audiences for her critically acclaimed roles on NBC's The Good Place,

as well as Showtime's House of Lies, and her star making role as the title character in Veronica Mars.

Christen is actively involved in many charities, including Alliance of Mums, Baby the Baby, and No Kid Hungry.

She's also a global advocate for the UN's Women's Peace and Humanitarian Fund.

Today I'm excited to talk with Christen about her new book, The World Need More Purple People,

and what it means to be a healthy relationship, a great parent, and why the world needs more of all of this incredible energy.

Christen, thank you for being with me, and I'm so deeply happy to be spending this time with you.

Right back at you, I am so excited that we're finally doing it, and yeah, I almost want to hear you talk more to me than I want to talk to you,

but I'll try to add some things here and there.

It's definitely the other way around for me.

From the little time that we've already spent together, I'm already excited for everyone to hear this conversation,
