Inside the magazine, the "Savage" singer opened about everything, including what it has been like parenting her 8-year-old daughter, Blue Ivy, during the pandemic.
When asked how her parenting has changed in the past few months, Yoncé said, "I have become a better listener. Blue is very smart, and she is aware that there is a shift, but it is my job as a parent to do my best to keep her world as positive and safe as can be for an 8-year-old."
She went on to give advice for other parents out there who are just trying to get through the rest of 2020 after months of protests and a global health crisis: "My best advice is to love [your children] harder than ever."
"I let my daughter know that she is never too young to contribute to changing the world. I never underestimate her thoughts and feelings, and I check in with her to understand how this is affecting her," the 39-year-old stated.
She continued, "[Blue] saw some of the reactions to the 'Brown Skin Girl' video, as well as some of the videos from the philanthropic work I’ve done this year. When I tell her I’m proud of her, she tells me that she’s proud of me and that I’m doing a good job. It’s teeeeeew much sweetness."
Elsewhere in the interview, Bey said she was "absolutely changed" by the events of 2020. "It would be difficult to experience life in a pandemic and the current social unrest and not be changed. I have learnt that my voice is clearer when I am still."
The Grammy Award winner also shared that she has been enjoying being at home with her three children — Blue and 3-year-old twins Sir and Rumi. "I truly cherish this time with my family, and my new goal is to slow down and shed stressful things from my life," she declared.
