They recall moments when they were both considered for the same roles, leading to discussions about who should pursue the opportunity. AJ mentions that their distinct acting styles often meant they weren't directly competing, saying, "Our acting is so different" 1. This understanding helped them support each other without resentment, even when one sister was more successful at times.
