A Dream Come True
This Is Us turned her dreams into reality. She’s grateful for her newfound success and is slowly repaying her debts and sorting out her finances. However, she still feels guilty when she buys something for herself. But she is learning, and she takes each day as it comes. As Kate’s character arc evolves and loses weight, Metz is motivated to do the same. She says that it’s good to have a little extra push. Also, Chrissy says that her co-stars are like real family to her, and she’s never been happier at work than she is now.
A Platform for Change
Metz is using her newfound fame to raise awareness, educate people, and make people with similar problems feel that they are not alone. She wants to challenge preconceptions about weight, emphasizing that it’s the underlying issues that matter, not just the symptoms.
