Charlize Theron's Motherhood Journey

Actress Charlize Theron, who has two daughters Jackson and August, has said being a mother helped her discover who she is as an individual.

After years of therapy, Charlize said she is now at a place where she can "create life" for the nine and three year old and told the July issue of Australia's Marie Claire magazine: "I love being a mum. By the time I had kids, I was really ready. I'm in bed at 7:45 every night now, and I love it because I've lived. If I die tomorrow, I'm at peace with who I am in my life.

"I didn't discover therapy until my mid-30s. My reasons for going had a lot to do with South Africa and uncertainty and living with an alcoholic every day. What I discovered was my life was an all-encompassing thing. It showed me I can see the big picture and understand the reason to get to a place where I could create a life for my own kids."

Charlize previously shared that she is raising "two beautiful proud black African girls", revealing that Jackson, who was born a boy, identifies as female.

She explained: "I have taught them a little Afrikaans, but it's a language filled with very conflicted history. I am raising two beautiful proud black African girls and I want them to find themselves and not necessarily push my ancestry on them, but I have taught them two very sweet Afrikaans songs about politeness."
