Kim Kardashian has just opened up about her journey of choosing happiness while leading up to her divorce from Kanye West a year ago in February of 2021.
“For so long, I did what made other people happy,” Kardashian, 41, said of the important discovery. “And I think in the last two years I decided, I’m going to make myself happy. And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I’ve chosen myself. I think it’s okay to choose you.”
“My 40s are about being Team Me,” she continued. “I’m going to eat well. I’m going to work out. I’m going to have more fun, spend more time with my kids and the people who make me happy. I’m going to put my phone down. Unfollow if I don’t want to see something on Instagram. [My sister] Khloé [Kardashian] came up with the best phrase for that yesterday. She said, ‘Post and ghost.'”
Kim also spoke about how she is rediscovering herself through her sense of fashion–which, before, was often driven by West’s influence.
“I always think, What will be next? Because I always had Kanye, who knew exactly what the next fashion era would be for me,” she said. “And there’s something scary about being out there on your own, but also something so liberating. Who knows? I might just be in Skims and be so comfy and casual and wear no makeup, and that might be what I feel like representing to the world. Maybe it’s just not that serious.”
