Freida Pinto on Managing Self-Doubt, Postpartum, and Life After Slumdog

On this week's episode of "It Sure is a Beautiful Day" Catt is joined by critically acclaimed actress Freida Pinto. It's easy to be a mega fan of this extremely smart, talented, and gorgeous female from movies like Slumdog Millionaire, Hillbilly Elegy, and Rise of the Planet of the Apes, but it's her spirit and kindness we get to know today.

In this deeply personal in-person conversation, Freida opens up, possibly for the first time, about her miscarriage that left her devastated emotionally and wrecked physically. Now a mother of her almost two-year-old son, Rumi, she is an avid advocate of post-partum awareness and now educates and informs as Chief Impact Officer at Anya.

We hear about Freida's motherhood journey but also learn intimate details about her relationship with her husband Cory. How she literally manifested the partner of her dreams and how they work on their marriage as new parents and try to stay connected during demanding times. Relatable!

Then, after hearing about Freida's upbringing in Mumbai, we talk about her rocket fast catapult to fame after Slumdog Millionaire, the challenges of working in Hollywood as a person of color, and how she's found purpose and meaning in her work with her production company, Freebird Films.
