About this episode
Academy Award-winning actress Viola Davis has built a career defined by purpose, strength, and honesty, but her journey began with a childhood shaped by bullying and feeling different. In this conversation from April 2022, Davis sits down with Hoda to talk about overcoming adversity, learning to love herself, and understanding how her past helped shape the woman she is today. Plus, she reflects on resilience, legacy, and why believing in yourself is often the first step toward shaping your own future.
