In this episode of The Breakdown with Bethany, Sarah Michelle Gellar gets real about the rhythms of parenting, the importance of family dinners, and the surprisingly emotional journey of getting her daughter to like artichokes. The millennial icon and mother of two shares how carving out unhurried momentsâlike sitting around the dinner tableâcreates space for meaningful conversations and lifelong habits. âYou donât get to try something once and then decide you donât like it,â she says, recounting how her daughter kept giving artichokes another shot untilâyears laterâthey finally stuck. Itâs a fitting metaphor from a woman whoâs known for fighting demons on screen but now offers wisdom about patience, presence, and parenting off-screen. And yes, she graciously answers one question about Buffy.
