Asher Keddie

“Through my 20s, acting was the be all and end all, and I ended up feeling strung out.”

“It's been fantastic with the baby, I love it. He is going to come with me, so I'm going to have him while at work.”

“There's a lot of levity to 'Offspring' and I just love that the costumes reflect that.”

“And I think 'Offspring' has given me that opportunity to really appreciate the audience and want to entertain them and make it the best drama I can.”

“Kids experience hormonal changes from birth, I'm trying to be as woke as I can with my kids.”

“I think I was very much a late bloomer.”

“We're getting bolder with our drama and we're allowing women to be unapologetic about their ambitions in a professional sense, and also about their vulnerability as mothers and lovers.”

“As an actor you have to be vulnerable or you're just not going to cut it.”

“It's interesting the whole Kardashian thing with 'Offspring' because really my choices - with my costume designer - for every single episode are based on the emotional journey of that episode for the character.”

“There are two sides to every story and I think it has been easy for us culturally to persecute the scorned woman and the actions she takes in response to being betrayed.”

“But 'Love My Way,' it would be incredibly difficult to resist jumping back in all these years later. I think it would be a very interesting thing to do. We have all moved on with different things. It was such a long time ago but, because the drama was so beautifully written and crafted, it would be irresistible probably.”

“And I love non-actors. Just like I love working with children. They have spontaneity and a great energy. You're just not sure what you're going to get.”

“Life when I'm not shooting is always about the kids, there's no doubt.”

“Where I live, I am surrounded by fresh, organic food, so I eat really well.”

“I am physically fit and I have a lot of stamina. It's because on the farm I am up at 6 A. M. doing chores. You will find me out in the paddocks, feeding the animals and picking up poo.”

“I just don't like closing doors. I can't do it psychologically.”

“There are certain vulnerabilities as a mother that you sometimes try to tackle privately and don't find as much strength as you quote 'like.'”

“We're seeing more of the female psyche on screen than we used to.”

“I don't feel like I need or want to apologize for feeling ambitious.”

“Who needs a gym? It doesn't appeal to me to exercise in a room.”
