Khloé Kardashian is getting vulnerable about being a mom. On the Wednesday, January 22, episode of her podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, Khloé spoke to British podcaster and life coach Jay Shetty about trauma. Admittedly, Khloé would like to think that when her kids get older, they won’t have any childhood trauma to talk about. But she’s also confident that that will not be the case.

Khloé shares two children with her ex Tristan Thompson.
Though Khloé and Tristan are no longer together, they co-parent True, 6, and Tatum, 2. On the podcast, Khloé made a rare comment about her co-parenting relationship with Tristan. “We co-parent really, really well,” she told Jay.
While her kids have had a great childhood so far, she knows they’ll have trauma to cope with in the future.
From Khloé’s perspective, everyone has negative experiences to work through, and her kids are not immune from that even though their lives are currently great. “We all have trauma. Whether it be big, or small. I always joke, I’m like, ‘Well my kids better not talk about childhood trauma because they have the best freaking lives,'” she said. “And they do! But it’s going to happen. It’s the inevitable.”

Jay Shetty agreed that even amazing parents still don’t get everything right.
Jay told Khloé that it’s “great” that she’s able to accept that. He explained that “no matter how amazing a mom you are and how great the kids’ childhoods are,” you’re “not gonna get it perfect.”
Even “thoughtful” parents with great intentions have kids who “disagree with what [their parents] did” in some way, he explained.
Khloé said she’s not dating because she’s focusing on her kids right now.
Raising her kids is her priority. “I’m not dating because my relationship with my kids is everything to me,” she said on the podcast. She added that she doesn’t “want any distractions,” either.
“Where I am in my life right now, I just really want to nurture this love and I just want to be as present as I can,” she explained.
In spite of what Khloé ‘went through romantically,’ she believes in ‘happily ever after.’
Khloé admitted that she’s still a “hopeless romantic.” If she were to meet someone and fall in love, she wouldn’t mind — but she’s not actively looking. “I’m so happy,” Khloé said of being single at this point in life. “I feel so fulfilled. I also love that I’ve taken about three years off of dating and i feel like I’ve really gotten to know myself on a deeper level.”
Additionally, she added that she’s “not ashamed” of what she went through in the past.
“I also think it’s one of my superpowers that I went through those things and I still have such a softness for love and for life,” she said.
