She continued: "Stop worrying about what they’re gonna think of you if you try doing something if you try working towards your dreams.

“Just stop thinking about what other people think of you because you do not – trust me – you do not want to be on your death bed looking back at your life and thinking: 'Wow, I lived my life for someone else'.

"To fulfill other people's happiness and to fulfill other people’s wants and desires, and I never had the courage to do what I actually wanted to do in life."
