Kim Kardashian has revealed she 'cries herself to sleep' at night at the prospect of raising her children on her own.
The 42-year-old reality TV star shares four children with her ex-husband Kanye West, who now legally goes by the name Ye.
The former couple share nine-year-old North, seven-year-old Saint, five-year-old Chicago, and their youngest, four-year-old Psalm.
The Skims founder sat down with life coach Jay Shetty on his podcast series On Purpose to chat about all things parenthood.

The episode is expected to go live on May 22, however People magazine released a teaser of the episode.
In the clip, Kardashian can be heard saying 'the days are long and the years are short' when it comes to raising kids.
"So, like, when you're in it, I mean, especially when they're babies and you're feeding...there's madness going on. It's like full madness," she said.
"It's the best chaos though."
The star of Hulu's The Kardashians then revealed what a typical morning looks like in her home.
She revealed 'you have no idea what's going on' in the mornings, before adding: "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."
She summed it up with: "It's like full crazy madness, cooking, running around. Like, it's wild."
Kardashian told Shetty 'they all need you' before revealing the toughest moment she has faced as a mom.
She admitted: "There are nights I cry myself to sleep. Like, 'what just happened?'
"You know, with all the moods and the personalities and sometimes they're fighting and there's no one there."
The 42-year-old social media star revealed she is finding her feet as a single mother, telling Shetty she often has to play both 'good cop and bad cop' which she finds 'a challenge'.
She also detailed how much of a toll a temper tantrum can have on her day, revealing they can turn her life 'completely upside down'.
But she wouldn't change it for the world.
While she said 'nothing' can prepare someone for the highs and lows of being a parent, she added: "It is the most challenging, rewarding job on this planet."
