"Too often are people’s characters mistaken for their personality. The dumb blonde trope is as healthy as can be in old Hollywood. From Marilyn Monroe to Lisa Kudrow, if your blonde in entertainment, you’ve been casted before you even stepped into the audition. The same could be said for Goldie Hawn. Although many of her most remarkable roles are for complex and emotional characters, such as in the films Saving Private Benjamin and the First Wives Club , her most well-known characters are the type cast. Overboard and Death Becomes Her, two roles that have coincidentally been redone by Hollywood, are the first features that come to mind when thinking of Goldie Hawn.

But they should not be the only things that come to mind. Within her memoir, Hawn showcases how one can be spiritual without being religiously limited. During her times of strife and despair, she found comfort in learning about the potentials for the next life. Whether or not she believes in heaven, reincarnation, or enlightenment isn’t what gives her comfort, it is all of them together that eases her nerves. If she is allowed enlightenment when she passes, angels when she’s scared, or reincarnation for her family, or if she is allowed only one of the above would be more than enough for Hawn. But all of them together creates a buffet of calming dishes when faced with the unknown."
