Yara Shahidi Named One of Glamour’s Women of the Year
Yara Shahidi has been named one of Glamour’s Women of the Year. In honor of the recognition, Yara is featured on the magazine’s newest issue.
In her interview with the magazine, Yara talked always striving to be better, her career, being inspired by her peers and so much more. Highlights can be found below.
On always striving for better: “That purpose may be as simple as providing joy or it may be helping in the field of equity or amplifying other people’s voices. But my metric for success is having an impact on something greater than myself.”
On being inspired by her peers: I don’t think I’d be doing the work I’m doing if I wasn’t constantly inspired by the other young people doing this work, by the other young people doing work I didn’t even realize had to be done. I feel like we constantly educate one another. Because we inherited a world in crisis, we enter this world inspired to make change.”
