In August, Sweeney talked in an interview about how her family positively influenced her life and career. She was discussing this while they were talking about how the video where she shared her Emmy nomination with her mother. She was extremely grateful to her mother and said that she would not be here, chasing her dreams, if it were not for her mother. She was twelve or thirteen when both her parents gave up almost everything so that she could get what she wanted. They supported her decision every step of the way.
