Amy Poehler Shares How the Inside Out Movies 'Fundamentally Changed My Life': 'I Feel Really Lucky'

Amy Poehler reveals how the 'Inside Out' movies and playing the character Joy 'fundamentally changed' her life in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE.

Tonight is filled with young people, and I think we have a lot to learn from them," she added, referring to the org's mission to end the stigma surrounding mental illness. Back in June, Poehler told PEOPLE how she personally related to Riley, the 13-year-old girl at the center of Inside Out 2, who finds herself facing the confusing mix of emotions that comes with puberty. The Saturday Night Live alum also opened up to PEOPLE in April about how stepping into the voiceover booth to record Joy's lines sometimes led to intense personal epiphanies as she tackled the emotional material.
