Psychology of a Hero: Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi (Mia) from THE PRINCESS DIARIES

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are taking a look at princess, icon, and hero, Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi, Princess of Genovia… or just Mia. Mia’s journey from wanting to be invisible to becoming a princess is all about self-actualization, and Jonathan shares what it takes to get there. They rave about acting (and Genovian) royalty, Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews, they get PO’d about the cat’s POV, and Jonathan tells a sad (hilarious) story about trying to impress a girl in second grade.
