The end of a relationship.’ Those are the two things. What I’d ask is, ‘Does anything really end? Or is it a cycle?'”“The toughest breakup I had to go through was losing my father,” she continued, referencing her father’sdeath from cancer in 2017. “Everything doesn’t feel as intense as that. Losing my dad prepared me for everything that happens in life, and … life has thrown some really crazy things at me. That’s part of the process.”Woods went on to explain that she’s working on finding her “self-worth” in the aftermath of the scandal.“Everyone is trying to figure out what I’m doing but, to be honest, I don’t know what I’m doing. I’m finding my self-worth,” she told the magazine. “At 21, this is the very beginning, even though I feel so old. This is the time you figure out who you are, and don’t let anyone define you.”
