While Kim Kardashian West may have once said Kourtney Kardashian is the “least interesting to look at,” we think she deserves a little more praise than she gets!
The 40-year-old is a reality TV star, momma of three, founder of healthy lifestyle site Poosh, and so much more.

We’re here to break down all things Kourt:

She Keeps It Private
Compared to her sisters (we’re looking at you Kim!), the eldest Kardashian sister actually keeps things pretty private in her personal life. Much like sis Kendall Jenner, Kourt tends to fly under the radar when it comes to her romantic relationships for the most part, as well as her kids.
In fact, there’s been such a huge shift with the momma of three over the last several seasons of Keeping Up With The Kardashians that she might be leaving the show all together, or at least pushing the focus away from her life.
As we previously shared, a source spilled (below) while Kris Jenner negotiated new contracts for her kids:
“Although several of her daughters, including Kourtney, Kylie [Jenner] and Kendall, have said that they wanted out, Kris knows that they will stay put for the right amount of money.”
She Looks Out For Her Younger Siblings
Though she hasn’t been married, the KarJenner’s resident advice-giver definitely knows a thing or two about relationships and parenting, so she doesn’t hold back when sharing what’s necessary with her sisters.
She Puts Emphasis On Mental & Physical Health
Opting for a more holistic belief system than most, Kourt is all for keeping her mental and physical health in check with an emphasis on clean eating, meditation, Ayurveda, and therapy. Her level of attention to her body is a lifestyle that seemingly goes way beyond what effort her sisters put in, and it shows!
In an interview with Natural Health Magazine, she explained some of her practices:
“I got really into Ayurveda and did the Panchakarma cleanse [a detox treatment program involving massage and herbal therapy]. Through that, I met my yoga teacher, who taught me her way of preparing food. We would do yoga for an hour and then she’d stay for another hour and cook with me. That’s where I got all of my rules. In our house, we do everything whole: whole milk and full-fat cheeses. And I use ghee and coconut oil for cooking.”
As for keeping her mental health in check, Kourtney has been an open advocate of therapy for healing old wounds. In season 15 of the reality series, Miz Kardashian opened up BIG TIME to her mom, admitting she still harbored anger toward her for cheating on Robert Kardashian during their marriage, and ultimately ending their union. As the eldest sibling, it’s understandable that she likely felt a lot of weight on her shoulders during the separation that carried into adulthood.
She Cares About The Environment
Much like Kimmie is passionate about criminal justice reform, Kourt is passionate about cosmetics reform! In April 2018, she joined Ken Cook, president of the Environmental Working Group in Washington D.C. to brief staffers and reporters on the need for reform of the nation’s cosmetics law.
A November episode of KUWTK documented her journey, where the momma revealed she began more closely looking at the products she used on son Mason after he was born. She said in the episode:
“It’s really crazy that it’s up to us to do the research and figure it out.”
Many of the laws surrounding cosmetics and personal care items have gone unchanged since 1938, allowing companies to put harmful ingredients in products without proper labeling, which is something Kourt hopes to see changed in the future.
She Coparents With Her Ex
While Kourt and Scott Disick may not be together anymore, that doesn’t mean they’re any less dedicated to their three kiddos. The amicable exes have been praised by family members and fans for harmoniously coparenting. Kourt shared during an episode of KUWTK that she feels she was inspired by seeing how her own parents co-parented after their split:
“I know with my parents, as soon as everyone got along, life was so much easier. It felt like everyone was happy. So as long as everyone’s OK with it, I think it’s amazing we all get to travel together.”
Kris, who was at first skeptical of her eldest daughter taking vacations with Scott and his girlfriend Sofia Richie, seems to have now warmed up to the idea of the family getaway:
“It took me a couple of years after Robert and I got divorced, but we became the best of friends. So I know a thing or two about being friendly with your ex and co-parenting. But it’s still incredibly challenging. So I worry that somebody is going to get hurt.”
Even though she is the big sis of the gang, she knows how to let loose when the time is right. We love ya, Kourt!
