Tia Mowryisn’t sure she wants to revisit herSister, Sisterdays.

While speaking exclusively with PEOPLE at a recentOverjoyedlaunch event in Los Angeles, the actress, 46, addressed the idea of a reboot of the popular ’90s family sitcom.

“Yeah, I mean, never say never,” she replies. “I’m just a huge believer in that, meaning I don’t have a crystal ball, but never say never.”

“But it was so wonderful and so amazing. So I feel like, to be honest with you, I also have that feeling as well,” Tia continues. “So I’m like, okay, never say never, but it was such a great show and I wouldn’t want to mess it up in any kind of way. It’s a classic.”

“Today is the 30th anniversary ofSister, Sisterand I’m so grateful for this show and the experiences it has given me. It was the first time I really believed in myself and my dreams. I remember being on a press tour in New York when the show premiered, feeling like all my hard work and prayers had paid off,” theFamily Reunionstar wrote.

Tia went on to reflect on how the show initially did not get picked up — and how that moment of “rejection” still remains a reminder for her of the importance of perseverance and faith.

“My sister and I faced rejection when our show wasn’t initially picked up, but we didn’t give up. We prayed and were later told the show would be a mid-season replacement,” she wrote. “We were back up. Whenever I feel like I get to a place where I want to quit, I go back to that moment and remember that dreams do come true and to keep going and keep believing.”

Harry, meanwhile, celebrated the anniversary with a post onX, writing: “30 years since our little show premiered!”

Like Tia, she touched on the fact that the show’s cast never could have imagined just how popular the series would become — and still remain decades later. “We didn’t predict this longevity or success, but it should come as no surprise,” Harry continued. “When you put love, friendship, identity & heritage at the core of your work, it turns into something everyone can relate to.”

Tia told PEOPLE at the Overjoyed launch that being vulnerable in allowing cameras into her life at such a raw and emotional time was “all about empowerment.”

“Everything that I do, I’m intentional when it comes to my why, so I’m all about empowerment, all about inspiring, all about just helping, educating in any way that I can,” she explains.
