Kris Jenner speaks up about her retirement plan: Deets inside
Kris Jenner has made it clear that she has no plans of retiring anytime soon. During her appearance on SiriusXM’s This Life of Mine with James Corden podcast on May 9, the star of The Kardashians spoke about her career and her desire to keep going strong.
“My mom [Mary Jo Campbell] retired when she was 82,” Kris said, implying that she would follow a similar path. She then reflected on her job, emphasizing how fulfilling it was for her. “It gives you all sorts of different qualities in your life. It’s finding solutions for things. It’s your organizational skills. It’s your people skills. It’s the love of life”, told E! Online.
“She talks about her job every single day when we’re together and she will say to me, ‘Oh, my job kept me young and with purpose and with joy,’” recalled the momager. Reflecting on her job, Kris stated, “It gives you all sorts of different qualities in your life. It’s finding solutions for things. It’s your organizational skills. It’s your people skills. It’s the love of life.”
Kris mentioned, “Getting up, getting dressed, presenting yourself to the world a certain way, and interacting with the people that you love.” While discussing being a mediator between her daughters Kim Kardashian and Kourtney, Kris revealed, “The last little argument that Kourtney and Kim had, it wasn’t at all about jealousy or not wanting the other to do well.”
“I think one just thought that the other was stepping on the toes of a business relationship that was being established and it was a business thing,” she explained. Kris pointed out, “Sometimes I just have to have days because it does get intense, where I just go, ‘I know Kourtney, can you believe?’ and then you get on with Kim and you go, ‘Kim, I know Kourtney’s crazy.’”
Jenner’s passion for her work and life was evident as she spoke about the drive that keeps her going. She takes pride in her role as a manager and matriarch of the Kardashian-Jenner family, guiding her children through their business ventures and personal lives.
However, Jenner also revealed a personal health scare in the season five trailer for The Kardashians, which was released on May 8. She shared that doctors had discovered “a cyst and like a little tumor,” which has understandably caused her some concern. Despite this, she remains focused and optimistic.
In the trailer, Jenner is seen in a vulnerable moment discussing her health with her family and expressing the fear and anxiety that comes with such news. Her daughters, Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian, provided their support and reassured her that they would be by her side no matter what.
Jenner has always been a central figure in the Kardashian-Jenner empire, managing her children’s careers and building a media and business dynasty. Her leadership and determination have been crucial in shaping their success.
Her commitment to family and work is evident in how she handles challenges. Whether it’s supporting her children through personal issues or navigating the complexities of their business ventures, Jenner remains a steady and unwavering presence.
While her health concerns might prompt others to slow down, Kris Jenner seems more motivated than ever to continue working and enjoying life to the fullest. Her positive outlook and passion for what she does are what keep her energized and unwilling to retire anytime soon.
