Demi Moore, 57, has learnt a lot about life and love.

The “Ghost” actress pondered on the necessity of remembering what you want out of life when married in order to keep your partner happy.

During an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show, she stated, “I think it’s a process of, not to sound cliché, but it’s really a process of learning to love yourself, accepting who you are just as you are.”

“Accepting who you are just as you are,” the mother of three added. “For me, I had changed myself so many times over and over to fit what I thought somebody else wanted. It’s that idea that we’re kind of conditioned to work towards being desired, but we’re not supposed to have desires of our own.”

“Working through a relationship, it really is commendable in our disposable times to go through the journey of really honoring the love that brought you together in the first place and to really give it everything you’ve got. But you can’t do that without that love and acceptance of yourself.”

During the conversation, the actress also discussed her sobriety, which she attributes in great part to Joel Schumacher, who directed her in the 1985 film St. Elmos Fire.

“I will forever be so grateful to him, as they say somebody seeing more of you than you see of yourself,” she said. “And in a way he was doing it for himself. He wasn’t yet sober. So he was doing for me what he couldn’t yet do for himself. What a gift.”

Moore was advised by Schumacher at the time that she needed to go to rehabilitation in order to keep her part in the film.

“Work was the only thing that meant anything to me. I didn’t have any values. I wasn’t enough to have kept myself sober. But doing the film was,” she stated. “And whatever kind of divine intervention that took place of Joel sticking his neck out for me, along with the producers… being able to start the film sober, playing a drug addict, it gave me the room to start to find myself.”

Moore was married to Freddy Moore from 1980 to 1985 before embarking on a series of high-profile relationships, including one with Bruce Willis from 1987 until 2000, which resulted in three kids. She married Ashton Kutcher in 2005, but the couple divorced in 2013.
