Nicola wants anyone listening to speak up, too.
“If you’re feeling sad or down or upset or you’re going through a hard time, never hold it in,” the actress said. “My mom has always told me that. She always said, ‘If you’re feeling upset about something, I want you always to call me. I don’t care what time it is.’ And I always tell that to my friends.”
It takes a village, after all.
“Knowing that you have that person or a few people like that in your life, it changes everything—for me, at least, it does,” she continued, later adding, “Even if it’s silly and it’s not that big of a deal but my feelings are hurt about something—I think it’s important to be able to have that communication and not feel like someone’s judging you for that.”
