Yara Shahidi, the cool cat from 'Grown-ish,' is flying solo these days, and she's totally digging the playful banter her siblings throw her way about her love life.
In a chat with PEOPLE for this week's scoop, the 24-year-old spills the beans on her tight-knit crew—her mom, dad, and bros, Ehsan and Sayeed. "We're like peas in a pod," she gushes. "Just the other day, my brother had me rolling with laughter, riffing on his sociology class."
While Yara's been riding solo since calling it quits on a three-year romance last year, she admits her brothers' take on her dating escapades keeps her entertained.
"Their hot takes on my love life are just... something else," she chuckles. "Honestly, it's their curiosity that keeps me going out there, just to come back with some good stories for them."
For Yara, it's all about kicking it with her crew. "Spending quality time with my ride-or-die peeps is where it's at," she says. "In this crazy fast-paced world, having that solid connection to fall back on means the world."
And speaking of connections, Yara's got her sights set on the future. "Approaching my mid-twenties, I'm already daydreaming about what 50 will look like," she muses. "I hope I'm soaking up the great outdoors like my folks do."
"By then, I hope to look back and say, 'Yeah, I poured my heart into projects that really mattered,'" she adds. "Fifty's just the beginning, you know? There's still a whole lotta living left to do."
With her infectious optimism and unwavering determination, there's no doubt that Yara Shahidi is destined for greatness, both on and off the screen. So here's to the next chapter, filled with love, laughter, and endless possibilities.
