Reese Witherspoon is supposed to be proof that the “follow your dreams” directive works: She’s an Oscar-winning actress with a hit production company, a $400-million-plus net worth, and a Nashville mansion.
Yet when a young woman recently asked her for career advice, the Legally Blonde star bluntly told her to stop chasing her dreams.
Instead of the usual “Do what you love” speech, the 49-year-old Academy Award winner revealed in a new Instagram reel that she advised her (and other Gen Zers watching) to start getting brutally honest about what you’re actually good at.
