She added during the interview that taking breaks from her career in the past has helped her feel "empowered" and allowed her to then come in "from a different doorway".
Later discussing a break from acting, she admitted that she "felt guilty" at the time for not taking advantage of the opportunity that she was being given with her career.
Rachel however said that such wasn't "quite jiving" with her and added that it has taken some time to understand what she was "intuitively" doing by taking a break.
