Lupita Nyong’o has dominated 2014 and she’s not done yet. The “12 Years A Slave” beauty landed the December cover of Glamour magazine also known as the “Women of the Year” issue.

Lupita Nyong’o is all smiles, as she should be after the year she had. On the cover she’s wearing Celine earrings and a white The Row top, and inside the issue the 31-year old discusses how her life has changed, winning her Oscar, having a big family and more!

Check out some excerpts below:

Lupita Nyong’o on How Her Life Has Changed: 

“This is actually a conversation I look forward to having in 10 years, when all of this is behind me and I have some real perspective on what happened—because right now I’m still adjusting. I guess I feel catapulted into a different place; I have a little whiplash…. I did have a dream to be an actress, but I didn’t think about being famous. And I haven’t yet figured out how to be a celebrity; that’s something I’m learning, and I wish there were a course on how to handle it. I have to be aware that my kinesphere may be larger than I want it to be.”

Lupita Nyong’o on What Success Represents To Her:

“For me it’s not just one thing. Every time I overcome an obstacle, it feels like success. Sometimes the biggest ones are in our head—the saboteurs that tell us we can’t. I’ve always had that going on: “I can’t,” and then I do, so the voice says, “Well, that was an exception!” It’s a tug-of-war between two voices: the one who knows she can and the one who’s scared she can’t.”

Lupita Nyong’o on the “Lupita Nyong’o” effect:

“I giggle. I just heard it for the first time. I’ve heard people talk about images in popular culture changing, and that makes me feel great, because it means that the little girl I was, once upon a time, has an image to instill in her that she is beautiful, that she is worthy—that she can… Until I saw people who looked like me, doing the things I wanted to, I wasn’t so sure it was a possibility. Seeing Whoopi Goldberg and Oprah in The Color Purple, it dawned on me: “Oh—I could be an actress!” We plant the seed of possibility.”
