Kim Kardashian admits she cries herself 'to sleep' while talking about ... trends now

Kim Kardashian revealed that she cries herself 'to sleep' while opening up about the challenges of raising her four children in an upcoming podcast episode of On Purpose With Jay Shetty. 

The SKIMS founder, 42, who showed off her edgy side while attending her son's basketball game on Friday, shares North, nine, Saint, seven, Chicago, five and Psalm, four, with her ex-husband, Kanye West. 

In an exclusive snippet obtained by People, the TV personality was asked by the host what her 'vision' of parenting was like in the past before kids versus 'what is actually is.'

The reality star expressed, 'Everyone says the days are long and the years are short, and that couldn't be like a more true statement.' 

She continued, 'So, like, when you're in it, I mean, especially when they're babies and you're feeding and there's madness going on. It's like full madness. It's the best chaos though.' 

'Like, my mornings, you have no idea what is going on,' Kim explained. 'It's like I always have to do one of my daughter's hair, and it has to be perfect and it has to be a certain way.' 

'And then this one needs me to put his shoes on and they all need you. It's like full crazy madness, cooking, running around. Like, it's wild. That's why I need my workout in the morning, just to like, prepare for the two hours of craziness.' 

The media personality then reflected on parenthood and told Jay, 'I'd say parenting is the thing that has taught me the most about myself. It has been the most challenging thing. There are nights I cry myself to sleep, like, "What just happened?" You know, with all the moods, all the personalities, and sometimes they're fighting.' 

She explained that, 'There's no one there. Like, it's me to play good cop and bad cop. So, like, that is definitely a challenge,' and admitted that she was 'working on being a little bit firmer.' 

Kim continued to open up candidly and admitted to Jay that, 'There's nothing that can prepare you. Anyone, any person that says, "Oh, we're waiting to have 'x' amount of money in the bank" or "Oh, we're waiting to have a home before we have kids"...you are never prepared.' 

However, despite the challenges when it comes to parenting, the star positively stated, 'You will figure it out. And it will make you so proud of yourself-that you figured it out and that you got through the day.' 

While the mother of four admitted to the hardships that raising a family could bring, she also revealed how rewarding it can be. 

'It teaches you so much more about yourself than I think anyone, any parent, could have ever anticipated.' 

'I mean, there is nights where you don't wash your hair for days as a mom, and you have spit up all over you, and you're wearing the same pajamas...and there's just nothing that can prepare you for this experience.'
