description: Navigating through youth and young adulthood isn't easy and in Sorry Not Sorry Naya Rivera shows us that we're not alone in the highs lows and in-betweens. Whether it's with love and dating career and ambition friends or gossip Naya inspires us to follow our own destiny and step over--or plod through--all the crap along the way. After her rise and fall from early childhood stardom barely eking her way through high school a brief stint as a Hooters waitress going through thick and thin with her mom/manager and resurrecting her acting career as Santana Lopez on Glee Naya emerged from these experiences with some key life lessons:Sorry:- All those times I scrawled I HATE MY MOM in my journal. So many moms and teenage daughters don't get along--we just have to realize it's nothing personal on either side.- At-home highlights and DIY hair extensions. Some things are best left to the experts and hair dye is one of them.- Falling in love with the idea of a person instead of the actual person.Not Sorry:- That I don't always get along with everyone. Having people not like you is a risk you have to take to be real and I'll take that over being fake any day.- Laughing at the gossip instead of getting upset by it.- Getting my financial disasters out of the way early--before I was married or had a family--so that the only credit score that I wrecked was my own.Even with a successful career and a family that she loves more than anything else Naya says There's still a thirteen-year-old girl inside of me making detailed lists of how I can improve who's never sure of my own self-worth. Sorry Not Sorry is for that thirteen-year-old in all of us.
