She said: "I think living and pushing outside your comfort zone is the only way to be happy, ultimately. In the middle of it, risk is uncomfortable. But to me, there's something super¬ exciting about that.
"It's probably the way I'm wired. Most people don't like it, but I'm like, 'Yeah! Let's do more, let's take more, let's see more...' Then I'm in it and, like, 'Wow, this is a lot.'"
And Jennifer feels more confident in herself now than she did in her 20s.
She added: "I've gotten comfortable knowing what I am good at, and how to do it ... Men in their 20s are very confident and cocky, and women are superinsecure. And then it flips: Men get superinsecure, and women get comfortable in their own skin, in a way that makes them more beautiful."
"I never appreciated my body or my looks when I was in my 20s. Now I'm like, Look at me! Look at you! Not in a conceited or arrogant way - I just appreciate myself in a way I didn't when I was that age. And it's not about perfection. I like the scars that I have."
