In an in-depth interview with Sway Calloway on Sway In The Morning, Halle Berry opened up about her career, staying power, and personal growth.
Known for her legendary roles in film and an enduring presence in Hollywood, Berry shared candid advice on longevity and personal resilience.
The actress credits her fans, or as she calls them, her people, for continually supporting her through decades of success and challenges in the industry.
“That love is there, and I know that love is gonna always be there for me,” she said, reflecting on how the community’s support has fueled her longevity.
A highlight of the discussion was Berry’s perspective on health and wellness, especially since her early diabetes diagnosis.
She noted that managing her health from a young age pushed her to cut out sugar and focus on a disciplined lifestyle. Berry sees this as a crucial factor in her sustained energy and success, saying:
“I got sugar out of my life. Sugar is poisonous.”
This health-conscious attitude, combined with a dedication to fitness, has helped her stay “strong and ready to keep going.”
Berry also spoke about the importance of taking risks and the lessons that come from failure, playfully sharing that she’s learned to “put on her big girl panties” and keep going, even when things don’t work out.
“We learn the most when we fail,” she explained, explaining that growth often comes from embracing challenges.
In addition to the conversation last month around her personal philosophy, Berry teased her upcoming role in the survival horror film Never Let Go, showing her range and excitement for tackling complex roles, whether in drama, action, or horror.
The two also delved into the significance of rap lyrics referencing her, which Berry takes as a form of love and respect from the hip-hop community.
With humor, reflection, and insights, Berry’s conversation with Calloway highlighted not only her passion for the craft but her dedication to personal and communal growth—qualities that keep her connected to audiences worldwide.
