‘Alongside various odd acting jobs the truth is I have spent most of my time working in a health food cafe. It felt like defeat. It felt like failure.
‘To be grateful for just simply waking up and being healthy. Breaking the Habit I had of thinking I will be happy when I get that acting job or that audition.
‘To know that the depression and anxiety I continue to fight is only temporary.
‘It’s so hard to even get an audition or email answered never mind an actual job.’
She concluded, ‘But I have had the pleasure of working for @Ursel barnes who is the most inspiring woman and meet the most amazing people.
‘I’m not going to lie I have definitely had a little cry when washing dishes, mopping a floor or been spoken to like crap by a customer or asked why I don’t just get an acting job? (As if I don’t think about that every day!)
‘But most of the time I have been laughing and I am so very grateful. 
.’
And Sophie is now going to have so much fun being a mum! Congratulations!
