Famous actress: I made the difficult decisions when I was 20 years old

Actress Reese Witherspoon has said she's been reflecting on herself these days, as she realized she had to "make decisions" - as a mother and as a businesswoman.

During the second annual Hello Sunshine Shine Away event in Los Angeles on Saturday, the film star participated in a panel with moderator Kellyn Kenny and colleagues Laura Dern and Octavia Spencer - where she was asked if there was a moment in her life where she "found" her voice.

"There's a moment in all of our lives when you realize, don't wait, no one is coming to help, no one is coming to make that decision," she added.

"For myself, I have to make that decision. I've had a lot of them. Being a single mom in my late twenties, I had to make a lot of decisions for my two children and a lot of financial decisions, too," she said, according to People.
