00:00 --Hi! I'm Victoria Justice and you're watching Life Minute TV.
00:06 --We caught up with actress and singer Victoria Justice this week to hear all about what this
00:10 new 30 year old is up to. This is a Life Minute with Victoria Justice.
00:15 --I mean so far like 30 has been great. I'm just trying to be present every day. I'm focused
00:20 on my work and my career and making more music and getting in the studio and writing more.
00:25 So I've been really passionate and really excited about that. And I can't wait to you
00:29 know share more of me through my music with people. I have a song that I just put out
00:34 called Only a Stranger. You can listen to it on all streaming platforms, but it's a
00:39 really personal song to me. I, you know, was at home at the piano and I came up with this
00:44 little melody and I just started started daydreaming about how I'm longing for love and you know
00:51 I want someone to think I'm special, give me flowers for no reason. That's how the song
00:54 starts.
00:55 I want someone to think I'm special, give me flowers for no reason.
01:05 It's an emotional but also very hopeful song about love, so I hope people like it. I'm
01:09 paying homage to one of my favorite artists of all time, Billy Joel. The Stranger album
01:14 is one of the greatest albums of all time. And he's one of my favorite artists. And so
01:19 to be able to pay homage to him was was so much fun. I did it like in my own bedroom
01:24 and he actually posted about it, which was crazy. I had no idea that was going to happen.
01:30 I'm so honored. And honestly, the fact that he even knows that I exist is like the coolest
01:35 thing ever to me. So it was awesome.
01:38 Justice is also doing her part to help the environment. She's partnered with Arm & Hammer
01:42 Power Sheets to reduce plastic bottle waste.
01:45 I am so excited to be partnering with Arm & Hammer. I've been a fan of the brand for
01:49 honestly as long as I can remember. I started off using their toothpaste and now they have
01:54 Arm & Hammer Power Sheets, which have been such a game changer for me, honestly. You
01:59 know, there's no more liquid mess or carrying around a heavy bottle. There's no more plastic
02:04 bottle waste, which is amazing. I try to have a very conscious routine. I do things like
02:10 using a reusable bottle and carpooling when I can and reusable bags in a grocery shop.
02:14 And so this has been an amazing addition to that. They're easy to use. They're convenient.
02:19 They're lightweight, perfect for traveling. Big fan. I love to travel. I, oh gosh, it
02:25 makes me feel alive. I feel like I'm the kind of person that really thrives on like adventure
02:30 and newness. And there's so many places I want to go. I want to go to Tokyo. I want
02:35 to go to Greece, Iceland. Like I just, I can't wait to travel the world.
02:40 My favorite way to relax and de-stress, I love a good hot shower and then I'll put on
02:45 like a nice mask. You know, maybe watch a show with my sister. And, or like sit with
02:54 a good book and just like have some alone time, some me time is my favorite. Oh, and
02:59 also I love working out. I do a lot of yoga and that's a big de-stressor for me for sure.
03:04 I don't know if this is so much a life lesson, but like a motto that I guess I try to live
03:10 by is just treat others the way that you want to be treated. You know, I always try to just
03:16 treat people with kindness and at the end of the day, I feel like that's, that's, that's
03:22 all we can really do and hope for the same in return. And I feel like if we all try to
03:25 make like those little steps and do little acts of kindness along the way, then, you
03:29 know, it'll slowly but surely make the world a better place.
03:31 (upbeat music)
