The unstoppable Eva Longoria, who voices the lead role on the animated series Mother Up! and just wrapped up production for the Michael Berry drama Frontera, is "very happy," according to Prestige Hong Kong -- and just in time for the International Day of Happiness.

According to Fox News Latino, the sex symbol and business woman spoke with the foreign press about politics, being a sex symbol and a serious businessperson, and about enjoying life.

Longoria, 39, voiced her comfort with running a production company while posing on the cover of Maxim; imparting wisdom about the complexity of women. Longoria stated in her interview with Prestige, "Women are beautiful and intellectual and spiritual and social and entrepreneurial. They're everything. And I think I'm a great example of that."

Her philosophy about the complex, ambidextrous everyday woman powers her own productive, 24-hour lifestyle.

Beyond producing and acting, the Tejano star also sinks a great deal of time into her foundation (ELF). With it, she advocates and supports two charitable causes: children and the Latino community. She also offers her time and contributions to numerous other organizations, working to resolve immigration issues and inform the public about the status of Latinos in America.

"You really can't create sustainable, effective change when you're spread out so far as a philanthropist. So I wanted the foundation to focus on something specific in a very specific community. Education has played such a big part in my life and I feel that it's the one thing that can break the cycle of poverty in a very long-term way. I knew I wanted it to be in the Latino community. And within our Latino community it's really the women who need help and that's why it focuses on that," Longoria shared with the mag.

Her philanthropic efforts off-screen fuel her performances on screen.

"I love the medium of television. I love going to the same place every day to work," she stated. "I love diving into a character. I mean I really miss Gabi (from 'Desperate Housewives'). I really miss the family that we created for eight years. So I'll definitely be back. I love the idea of giving opportunities to women in the business, so most of the things I'm developing have female leads."

Last week, Longoria was photographed in a trendy blazer and a LA Dodgers cap at the Sydney Cricket Ground while watching the LA Dodgers take on an Australian team. The fun activity only stands a mere example of the social on-goings in the star's life.

"You can ask, but I won't answer," she said when asked about her relationship with Mexican businessman Jose "Pepe" Antonio Baston. "My social life is amazing. Lots of friends and things going on all the time. I'm at a very happy place in my life right now, both personally and professionally."

An admitted lover of cooking -- particularly with friends and family, Longoria formally flipped burgers at a fast-food spot during her high school years, and went on to study kinesiology at a Texas state college before beauty pageants gave way to opportunities in television. Longoria, who quietly gained a Master's Degree last spring, also spoke to Prestige about being an academic person, joking about being unable to find a job like many college graduates, and she spoke about gaining knowledge regarding immigration history. Her education helped to fortify a strong interest in politics, despite not liking politicians, and helped her to arm La Raza in supporting itself.

"I'm not a fan of politicians, I'm a fan of the political process. I'm a big believer in our system of government. I think the most powerful place in the process is the citizen. Every major civil-rights thing we've had in the last century has been by civil disobedience, by a group of people who said this isn't just and who experienced social injustice," the producer of Dangerous Housemaids said. "Whether it's women's suffrage or the African American civil-rights movement or the Chicano civil-rights movement, all of that came from injustice and people rising up and saying we want change. There's never been one politician who said, 'I'm going to head this up,' and this isn't right. You have to have a movement behind it. Policymaking disproportionally affects minorities and that's why I got involved in the last two campaigns, to make sure minority voices were heard and were counted."

She continued, "I'm really focused on helping our current president accomplish things. Before the inauguration people were talking about the next election, but I think we need to focus on the president we have now and help him get those policies passed. We're still trying to get immigration reformed passed. We're still trying to get people signed up for the ACA [Affordable Care Act]. It's unbelievable that we can change the Voting Rights Act. I'm definitely watching that and if I feel the need to get involved, I will."
