<p>British actress Millie Bobby Brown, best known for her role in <em>Stranger Things</em>,&nbsp;recently shared that her journey to feminism was sparked by an unconventional source: a psychic.</p>

<p>Speaking about her feminist awakening in an interview with Glamour, the actress shed light on her evolution from a young actress to a passionate advocate for women's rights.</p>

<p>She shared that her journey as a feminist began with a visit to a psychic who, during their session, informed her that she was, indeed, a feminist. Following her encounter with the psychic, the curious actress didn't waste any time. She returned home and, in her own words, "immediately searched on Google: 'How do I know if I'm a feminist?'" This simple online search set her on a path of self-discovery and activism.</p>

<p>During her internet deep dive, Brown revealed that she began to truly grasp the concept of feminism and what it meant to her. She realised that, at its core, feminism is about opportunity and equality for all genders. This awakening has since become a driving force in her life.</p>

<p>Brown has channelled her passion for feminism into her work through her production company, PCMA, whose name is derived from the initials of Millie and her siblings (Paige, Charlie, Millie, Ava). PCMA, a family-run venture, has a specific focus on spotlighting the stories of girls and women, whose narratives are often underrepresented in cinema to this day.</p>

<p>One of PCMA's notable successes includes acquiring the rights to the Enola Holmes books and creating a thriving franchise in collaboration with Netflix. Brown's upcoming Netflix project, <em>Damsel</em>, also exemplifies her commitment to female-focused narratives. In the film, where she shares the screen with Angela Bassett and Robin Wright, Brown plays a dragon-fighting princess, and the underlying theme is feminism, as she acknowledged in the interview.</p>

<p>However, Brown's advocacy for women extends beyond her work in the entertainment industry. At just 14 years old, she took on the role of a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador, making her the youngest person ever appointed to this position by the organization. In this role, Brown has championed efforts to raise awareness about menstrual care and provide education to girls around the world.</p>

Millie Bobby Brown reveals a psychic told her that she's a feminist

<p>Millie Bobby Brown, the British actor who rose to prominence for her role as Eleven in the widely acclaimed series <em>Stranger Things</em>, is on the verge of bidding adieu to a character she has portrayed for a span of seven years. Cast into the spotlight at the tender age of 11, Brown's portrayal of Eleven has been an integral part of the show's captivating narrative. From her enigmatic introduction as a girl with psychokinetic abilities to becoming a central and beloved figure within the Hawkins, Indiana universe, Brown's journey as Eleven has been a defining aspect of the series. Her adeptness at portraying Eleven's emotional depth and complexity has garnered widespread acclaim and solidified her as a rising talent in the entertainment industry.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Brown told Women's Wear Daily, “I think I’m ready. It’s been such a huge factor in part of my life, but it’s like graduating high school, it’s like senior year. You’re ready to go and blossom and flourish and you’re grateful for the time you’ve had, but it’s time to create your own message and live your own life.”</p>

Millie Bobby Brown prepares to bid farewell to Eleven, Stranger Things: It’s like graduating high school

<p>Millie Bobby Brown, who rose to fame for her role as Eleven in the Netflix science fiction series 'Stranger Things', dons many hats! She isn't just an actor, but also a beauty brand owner, screenplay writer, Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF and most importantly, a bright student who is keen on studying interesting and fun topics.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 'Stranger Things'&nbsp;actor recently revealed in an interview with Allure magazine that&nbsp;she is studying human services online at Indiana’s Purdue University. In the course, she learns "about the system and how to help young people."</p>

<p>Purdue university has been referenced in the show several times in the last few seasons. A special-edition Purdue shirt appeared during Season 3 of the show. It is a&nbsp;world-renowned, public research university that advances discoveries in technology, engineering, science&nbsp;and math.</p>

<p>At the young age of 15, Millie launched a Gen-Z-focused beauty brand called Florence by Mills. While talking about the brand in the same interview, the actress said, "I don’t know anything about beauty and skincare. That’s why I created this."</p>

<p>Millie&nbsp;further added, "I’m going to take you on this journey with me, so we can learn more about botanicals, serums, fruit and vegetable extracts, enzymes. Things that are so important for your skin, but we don’t know about because we’re young."</p>

Millie Bobby Brown, who rose to fame for her role as Eleven in the Netflix science fiction series 'Stranger Things', dons many hats! She isn't just an actor, but also a beauty brand owner, screenplay writer, Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF and most importantly, a bright student who is keen on studying interesting and fun topics. The 'Stranger Things' actor recently revealed in an interview with Allure magazine that she is studying human services online at Indiana’s Purdue University. In the course, she learns "about the system and how to help young people." Purdue university has been referenced in the show several times in the last few seasons. A special-edition Purdue shirt appeared during Season 3 of the show. It is a world-renowned, public research university that advances discoveries in technology, engineering, science and math. At the young age of 15, Millie launched a Gen-Z-focused beauty brand called Florence by Mills. While talking about the brand in the same interview, the actress said, "I don’t know anything about beauty and skincare. That’s why I created this." Millie further added, "I’m going to take you on this journey with me, so we can learn more about botanicals, serums, fruit and vegetable extracts, enzymes. Things that are so important for your skin, but we don’t know about because we’re young."
