I did feel that a part of my work was to empty myself out and let it move through me.
My grandmother gave birth to 13 children and I come from a long line of women who gave birth in their 40s.
I would say invisibility would be sort of a fun power to have just to see what it was like to move through the world and not be looked at.
My mother taught me to read in part by reading me Walt Disney comics, and I never stopped.
I knew that I was gay, I knew it. I just couldn't see myself as a gay woman, even though that's where my heart was.
My mother taught me early on not to be afraid to put myself out there - especially as a woman.
I hear a lot of girls say, 'I can be myself around you,' and I'm always thinking, 'Who are you when you're with somebody else?'
Seeing the energy of 'SNL' made me want to be a part of it. If that was a job, I thought, that was the job I wanted. That was my plan. Comedy.
It doesn't matter if a child comes to you or through you. That love is still the same. You are still a mother.
