Khloe Kardashian's "confidence was shot" before she turned 40.

The reality star reached the milestone birthday in June last year and admitted that prior to that, she had been "too scared" to try new things but is actually "proud" that she has managed to start up her 'Khloe in Wonderland' podcast.

She told UsWeekly: "With me being 40, I really wanted to do things that I had been thinking about doing, but was sort of too -- either just my confidence was shot, or I just was too scared to try them.

"[With my podcast], I was like, 'You know what? Screw this.' I'm gonna push myself, and I'm proud that I've done it. I'm doing it and I feel good about it. I found my rhythm."

The 'Kardashians' star explained that the "only negative thing" she has found since 40 is the physical impact that she has noticed but otherwise feels as if everything is "perfect" in her life at present.

She said: "The only negative thing I would say is that you definitely feel like your body gives out a little bit more. I am like 'Oh, my back hurts,' like things I've never said before that I'm like, 'Wow, OK'.

"Other than that, everything is so perfect. I feel I'm just in a really great place in my life right now and I'm thrilled about it"

The Good American founder - who was initially married to Lamar Odom from 2009 until 2013 and then went on to have daughter True, six, and two-year-old Tatum with NBA player Tristan Thompson but ultimately split from him in 2021 after it was revealed he had fathered a baby with Maralee Nichols - added that her new venture gives her the chance to speak to those who are of "genuine interest" to her.

She said: "I feel like with my podcast, I'm interviewing people that genuinely interest me and excite me, right? And I'm all over the place, like I go from Mel Robbins to Dr. Steven Greer, who's a ufologist. I'm all over the place, but that's how my brain operates and I am having a lot of fun with it. I have so many curiosities and fascinations, and I get to really dive into those by hosting this podcast."
