Kim Kardashian is opening up about the challenges she faces as a mother of four. In an exclusive clip from the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast, the reality TV star discusses her experiences raising her children with ex-husband Kanye West. Kardashian shares that parenting has been both chaotic and rewarding.

She reflects on the saying that “the days are long and the years are short,” emphasizing the truth behind it. Kardashian describes the madness and chaos of caring for her children, especially when they were babies. The constant demands, from feeding to getting them ready, create a whirlwind of activity. Despite the craziness, she calls it the “best chaos.”

Being a mother has taught Kardashian a lot about herself, but it has also been the most challenging thing she has ever faced. She admits to moments of frustration and even crying herself to sleep, overwhelmed by the tornado of events happening in her household. The different personalities and moods of her children sometimes lead to conflicts, leaving her as the sole mediator.

Kardashian acknowledges the difficulty of parenting and admits that it is “f***ing hard.” She describes it as a job that is simultaneously rewarding and unprepared for, no matter how much you anticipate or wait for it. However, she believes that parents will figure it out and feel proud of themselves for navigating through each day.

Nights in Kardashian’s home with her four kids can be challenging too, as they take it hour by hour, surviving one night at a time. She highlights how tantrums can turn your life upside down but also teach you valuable lessons about yourself. She shares relatable moments of not having time to wash her hair or wearing the same pajamas for days, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Despite the difficulties, Kardashian expresses her love for her role as a mother and wouldn’t trade it for anything. She believes that nothing can prepare you fully for the experience, but it remains the most rewarding and challenging job on the planet.
