"By the time Grown-ish started, I went from working 10 hours to 17 hours a day... I had to learn how to take care of myself and what that looked like." - Yara Shahidi

Starting as a child actress before landing a breakthrough role on Black-ish, Yara Shahidi's journey exemplifies the delicate balance of pursuing excellence while maintaining well-being. Her transition from working limited hours as a minor to grueling 17-hour days on Grown-ish's first season posed unprecedented challenges. With the guidance of her family and production team, she learned to prioritize her humanity over industry demands, leading to crucial conversations about work-life balance and self-care on set.

Beyond acting, Yara's commitment to living a full life led her to explore political engagement and voting advocacy while juggling her demanding schedule. Her experience navigating Harvard's academic rigor alongside a leading role in a top TV show demonstrates her resilience and adaptability. Through strategic scheduling and unwavering family support, she maintained her identity beyond the entertainment industry, proving that success doesn't require sacrificing personal growth or well-being.
