Garner on Mom Guilt: 'No Such Thing as Balance'

Jennifer Garner recently spoke about the difficulties of balancing a demanding acting career with raising her three children, especially in the years after her divorce from Ben Affleck. She shared in an interview that parenting requires constant self-adjustment and embracing imperfection, stating, "There's no such thing as balance." Garner added that she doesn't apologize to her children for working, viewing it as a natural part of life.

Following her divorce, Garner significantly reduced her work commitments to focus on her children. She now expresses gratitude for a period where she could fully immerse herself in acting. Garner described her current approach to her career as coming from a place of joy rather than necessity, highlighting her love for the craft and the collaborative environment.

Garner is set to star as Hollis Shaw, a food influencer, in Peacock's adaptation of Elin Hildebrand's novel, 'The Five Star Weekend.' The series, filmed in Nantucket, explores evolving relationships and revealed truths among friends during a shared weekend.
