Kim Kardashian has recently opened up about her journey towards developing stricter boundaries at home with her children after seeking therapy. In a candid conversation with her sister Khloé Kardashian, Kim revealed that a therapist pointed out that her calm demeanor, which she often refers to as her superpower, may actually stem from being desensitized to trauma.
The pivotal event that seems to have triggered this shift in Kim's attitude was the harrowing robbery she experienced in Paris back in 2016. During the incident, Kim was robbed at gunpoint by masked men who broke into her hotel room, resulting in the theft of millions of dollars worth of jewelry. Kim described the ordeal as a terrifying seven to eight minutes of torture, during which she was tied up, bound, and mentally prepared for the worst.
Khloé noted that Kim's response to the robbery marked a significant change in her approach to managing stress and trauma. Kim acknowledged that her ability to remain calm during the robbery may have ultimately saved her life, but she also expressed concerns that she may have become too desensitized as a result.
This newfound calmness has been a recurring theme in Kim's life, particularly during her turbulent marriage to Kanye West. Despite the challenges she faced during their relationship and subsequent divorce, Kim has often cited her calm demeanor as her superpower, allowing her to navigate difficult situations with composure.
Kim's journey towards understanding the impact of trauma on her emotional state has been a central theme in the latest season of 'The Kardashians.' Through therapy and introspection, Kim is exploring how her past experiences have shaped her current behavior and emotional responses.
Viewers can follow Kim's story and the rest of the Kardashian family on Hulu in the US and Disney+ internationally. The Season 5 finale is set to be released on July 25, offering fans a glimpse into the ongoing evolution of Kim's personal growth and resilience.
As Kim continues to reflect on the lasting effects of the Paris robbery and her subsequent emotional journey, she is shedding light on the complexities of trauma and resilience in the public eye. Her willingness to share her vulnerabilities and insights serves as a reminder of the strength that can emerge from confronting past traumas and embracing personal growth.
