Margaret Qualley Says She Uses Car Rides Home from Set to Reflect on Life and Be 'Nice to Myself'

Margaret Qualley takes care of herself!

On Thursday, June 20, the 29-year-old actress attended the premiere of her new film in New York Kinds of kindness and opened up about giving up control – and how she applies it to her own life.

“That’s the whole thing, right? I mean — I mean the whole thing in life, we don’t really have a lot of control,” Qualley told reporters at the Museum of Modern Art.

“We always try to deal with it,” she added. “I’m always just trying to be like, ‘Okay,’ and when I’m driving home after a day of work, I’m just trying to be kind to myself because there’s nothing you can do right now.”
