The biggest thing is routine. With athletes, it's sleep, rest, and just being mentally there," she said.Smiling, Dern added: "It's hard with a daughter, running around the house and when you're asleep she's, like, kicking you and wants to see you."Dern then talked-up the 23-time Grand Slam tennis champion Serena Williams, who won the 2017 Australian Open while eight weeks pregnant, then returned to the sport in the following year.She won her first tennis title since maternity leave earlier this year, beating Jessica Pegula in the final of the 2020 ASB Classic, a WTA tour event."I hope this proves to everyone … Serena Williams conquered so much being a mom so it's great to see moms proving ourselves," Dern said.Read more:<a href="https://www.insider.com/gilbert-burns-dominated-tyron-woodley-in-every-department-2020-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">In-form grappler Gilbert Burns beat former UFC champ Tyron Woodley so bad it looked like the American was crying blood</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/world-lethwei-championship-still-planning-2020-debut-in-the-us-2020-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The world's most brutal fight firm is bringing its unique brand of violence to the US, and it involves head-butt knockouts</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/floyd-mayweather-wants-to-make-1-billion-through-property-2020-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Floyd Mayweather's new goal in life is to make $1 billion through property, doubling the money he made as a boxer, his right-hand man says</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/how-matchroom-and-eddie-hearn-will-restart-boxing-during-coronavirus-2020-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Britain's biggest fight promoter has launched an ambitious plan to bring elite boxing to his huge, multi-million dollar mansion — and Anthony Joshua wants to get involved</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/conor-mcgregor-training-video-fight-island-ufc-2020-5" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor posted his first Instagram training video for weeks, suggesting his desire to compete on 'Fight Island' could be real</a>Read the original article on <a href="https://www.insider.com/video-mackenzie-dern-made-ufc-history-with-leglock-submission-2020-5">Insider</a>

Although the performance scored her an Academy Award for best actress, Witherspoon said she felt "frozen" for years. "There was a lot of talk about who we were supposed to be for other people, and, trust me, I listened to it for a long time," she said. "It was like we're supposed to only create fantasy people."<div type="image" title="Reese WItherspoon" height="2002" width="2669" msid="76331166" hostid="261"></div>Frustrated with the lack of on-screen opportunities, Witherspoon said in a previous interview with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4pccU0xW1Y">"CBS Sunday Morning"</a> that her now-husband Jim Toth told the actress that she read "more than anybody" he knew and suggested turning one of her favorite books into a movie.She <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4pccU0xW1Y">called "Wild" author Cheryl Strayed</a> to ask if she could produce and star in a film adaptation of her book. Strayed accepted, and Witherspoon earned an Academy Award nomination for a role in a project she produced. She's since produced a number of programs that bring nuance and complexity to a part she'd once felt was forbidden.Witherspoon starred as Madeline Mackenzie, a controlling mother in the center of the town's gossip, on HBO's "<a href="https://www.insider.com/category/big-little-lies">Big Little Lies</a>," and Elena Richardson, a suburban mother who works part-time as a journalist, on Hulu's "<a href="https://www.insider.com/category/little-fires-everywhere">Little Fires Everywhere</a>."In both roles, Witherspoon uses mothers' stories to address topics such as romance, deceit, sacrifice, and race. She's served as a producer on both projects. Roles like Madeline and Elena are limited, Witherspoon explained to the Los Angeles Times, adding that the lack of women-driven projects inspired her to create Hello Sunshine, a production company focused on bringing women's creative work to life, in 2016.The company has produced projects like "Gone Girl" (2014) and "Hot Pursuit" (2015). Witherspoon said she largely attributed Hello Sunshine's success to the support she's received from fellow female creatives. "I wasn't getting calls and I'm still not," she said. "The phone's not ringing. If Nicole [Kidman] and myself aren't doing this work or Kerry Washington, Charlize Theron and Margot Robbie and Laura Dern... we're working hard to create a surplus. We have to give each other ideas and produce for each other, because no one's out there thinking of us first."<div type="image" title="nicole kidman reese witherspoon" height="739" width="986" msid="76331167" hostid="261"></div><a href="https://hello-sunshine.com/podcasts">Hello Sunshine</a> also shares podcasts and hosts Reese's book club, in which she selects a book focused on a woman protagonist each month. For Witherspoon, spreading these stories is imperative. "Think about the hundreds of years, if not thousands of years of lost women's stories," she said. "How the hell can I not feel that there's a sense of urgency? Every woman I know that is working to tell stories of women or marginalized groups feels the same way. You don't know how long a window will last. You hope it lasts a long, long time, but you never know."The key to overcoming road bumps, Witherspoon said, wasn't avoiding risky roles that might "ruin" her career. Rather, it was recognizing her own potential when others brushed her off. "I will put in the hours, and I bet on myself," she said during a May 2020 interview on "<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4pccU0xW1Y">CBS Sunday Morning</a>."She added, "I'm my own lottery ticket."

<ul class="summary-list"><li>HBO's "<keyword id="2844474" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Big-Little-Lies">Big Little Lies</keyword>" follows five women and their families through a network of lies and murder and Monterey, California.</li><li>The show's set designer, Amy Wells, recently spoke to Business Insider about what went into constructing the look and feel of the characters' homes.</li><li>While the show is set in northern California, two of the homes used as sets were actually located in Los Angeles.</li></ul>Amy Wells is the twice-Emmy-nominated set director behind "Mad Men," the fan favorite AMC show that ran for seven seasons. She was also the creative genius tasked with creating a very different but equally beloved world: that of HBO's "<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/category/big-little-lies">Big Little Lies</a>," which follows five women and their families through a network of lies, drama, and murder in Monterey, California."I was so completely spoiled," Wells recently told Business Insider of her experience on-set. "It was a once-in-a-career experience, working with two different directors I loved passionately." Season one was helmed by French filmmaker Jean-Marc Vallée, while British Oscar-winning director Andrea Arnold oversaw season two. More than a year after season two aired, she still wants to step back into the lives of Celeste Wright, Madeline Martha Mackenzie, and co.<h2>The investment made in Big Little Lies sets was permanent</h2>"All our crew talk about is, 'Let's just go back to the Blissful Drip,'" Wells says of the location introduced in season two. This, of course, is the café on Monterey's Lovers Point where the women gather to talk in privacy and away from prying neighbors (and Meryl Streep's Mary Louise Wright).It was, Wells said, an expensive set, with bentwood furniture made from tree switches that were molded into chairs. Wells and her crew paid so much attention to detail for this location, in fact, that it could function as a coffee shop when the cameras stopped rolling — and so, rather than tearing it down, the production gifted it, in its entirety, to the town.Local authorities hope to reassemble the Blissful Drip for operation soon. Wells hopes the operators will provide rugs when it reopens – the biggest unexpected challenge of filming there, Wells said, was the notorious Monterey fog, which left Nicole Kidman and her costars struggling to hide their shivers on screen.<h2>No one embodies nouveau riche better than Renata</h2>Though Wells says <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/set-design-billionaire-characters-succession-billions-big-little-lies-2020-7">the key to the vibe of the show was its NoCal location</a>, two of the three lushest homes used in the filming process were actually located in and around Los Angeles. Nicole Kidman's Celeste, with her ranch-style home perched on the edge of the cliff in Monterey proper, was the exception.<div type="image" title="Big Little Lies" height="947" width="1262" msid="77071252" hostid="261"></div>"Andrea [Arnold] would say 'Omigod that's a whale' and we'd crowd round the window to watch — that's how amazing the location was. But the family who owned it had staged it for a rental, and it looked very… " Wells trailed off discreetly, before adding, "This extraordinary house was lacking any character — it needed a big infusion of layering, love and all that."Hunting down the ideal home for Laura Dern's socially and professionally ambitious Renata was a challenge, and it proved just as tough once the showrunners had settled on the final choice, a modernist mansion in Malibu. For one thing, it's not the first time this particular house has made a high-profile television appearance — look closer and you'll see it's the same nouveau riche McMansion where tech billionaire Nolan Ross helped the plotting (and plot) move forward in ABC's "Revenge.""We had to work really hard to make it look different, and look special — it was hard because there's almost no wall space, too," Wells said. As part of the plot for season two, it was redecorated, which also allowed her to infuse fresh energy to the space. Wells channeled her inner Kelly Wearstler, the LA-based interior designer and TV staple known for her Old Hollywood-like glamour."[Kelly is] very brave – I appreciate that about her – but sometimes she's a little garish and theatrical. That's who Renata would have hired," Wells said.<div type="image" title="Big Little Lies" height="937" width="1249" msid="77071255" hostid="261"></div><h2>Wells even selected the books on the shelves – though she deliberately left one out </h2>The house selected for Reese Witherspoon's tense perfectionist, Madeline, was also in LA. Making this four-bedroom bungalow look like it was in Monterey was the toughest assignment for Wells, and so she toggled back to a mood board she had created for each character at the outset."She's so prissy, she's the kind of girl who would collect blue and white dishware – so that's what she got. She doesn't want anything too out of the box," Wells explained.To help add warmth to the set, Wells painstakingly filled the home's shelves with dishes and books. Did she include a copy of "Big Little Lies" as a meta-nod to the audience? "Oh no, never. I would have been worried that the minute the viewer saw that, it would take them right out of the story."
