The Uncut Gems star assured her however that her sponsorship was enormously helpful to her back then, recalling, “You told me something that I still think all the time: ‘Tire the body and the mind will follow.’ If I’m feeling depressed or stressed, I’m just like, ‘Let’s get busy.’ I’ll workout and whatever, and I always think about that.” McSweeney said she was particularly moved by that confession as the advice was passed down from her own AA sponsor.
