In her cover story with Uptown magazine, Tracee Ellis Ross reveals that she’s ready for kids. On her desire for motherhood, the 39-year-old actress says, “I got it from my mother. She always wanted children. I feel like she created space on the planet for us before we got here.” She added, “Oh, God yeah. I want to be a mom. But, obviously, this stuff happens in God’s time and not mine.”

The star of Reed Between The Lines also reflected on taking risks: “As a younger person, my philosophy was jump off a cliff. I realize now that there are stairs and elevators. I am learning every day to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me. I can even ask for help! Not feeling that I have to know everything, and that’s where the growth comes in, in the not knowing.”
