“When I was about to turn sixty,” she said, `I realized I was approaching my third semester—my last show—and it wasn’t a rehearsal. One of the things I knew for sure was that I didn’t want to get to the end with so much regret, so the way I lived to the end was what would have determined whether or not I had regrets.

Then it also dawned on me that in order to figure out where I was supposed to go, I had to know where I was, and so I thought, Well, now is the time I’m going to look for myself…a search called a life review.

The icon told how she “completely changed” the way I thought about herself, noting that she wanted to “live the last third of my life.”

After changing her mindset, she added, she realized the importance of “being intentional” as one went through one’s life.

During her interview, Jane also reflected on her relationship with Catherine, who was her mentor, telling how the legendary actress wasn’t fond of her when they worked together.

She explained, ‘My only mentor who was older than me was Katharine Hepburn. I was in my forties while we were making [1981 drama] On the golden pond, and you did not love me. You let me know that. She said she learned to like me but didn’t really like me. She took me under her wing in a certain way and that was important.

Meanwhile, amid her cover shoot 63 years after her first cover, Jen reflects on how things have “changed” since those days, telling how she “wasn’t popular” at the time.

She told how in those days, the magazine was putting supermodels on the cover, and if someone told her she was still working and feeling good at around 85, she wouldn’t believe them.

She added, “At that time in my life, I doubted I’d live past 30. Just thinking about it filled me with hope. I didn’t give up. I kept going. I tried to get better. I did.”
