‘RHOBH’: Kim Richards Pens a Letter to Her ‘Inner Child’
Kim Richards, formerly from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills shared that she’s getting to know her true self and exploring what “nourishes” but also what “triggers” her.
Richards, who was an original cast member, is spending more time out of the spotlight and with family off of the show. She was a main cast member for five seasons, returning as a guest on and off. Richards appeared on the series last season during her sister’s Halloween party.
One main reason why Richards retreated from the series was to address substance abuse issues but also focus on her family. Viewers watched her painful struggle as her sister, Kyle Richards was often trying to lend her support, but the two would often fight to the point where they stopped speaking on a number of occasions. Richards opened up on Instagram, sharing that she’s getting to know her inner child.
‘A letter to my inner child
Richards penned an ode to her inner child, as someone who is getting to know herself better and understand her complexities.
“I guess I’m getting to know you a little better now,” she wrote along with a photo. “I’m glad I’m becoming friends with you and learning what triggers you & what nourishes you. I’m sorry I’ve been away from you for so long, I guess I was conditioned to.”
Like many women, Richards acknowledged that she was putting the needs of others ahead of her own. “I was conditioned to place my needs after other’s and seek validation from them. But today, I feel empowered more than ever before. ( not where I wanna be yet but very close).”
Richards also addresses her struggles
She also shares how she used other means to deal with stress and anxiety in her life.
“I am sorry for feeding you carelessly and succumbing to external stimuli as a means to escape and finally, when it took a toll on my body I realized that it was a wake up call for me to love you more,” she continued. “You’re my long lost friend and I’m glad we are talking ( better late than never) so since I know what I know now, I promise to always nourish you at all levels -body, mind and soul.”
Richards pledged to be present in her life and listen to her inner voice. “I will consciously make efforts to be there for you even if the world leaves us alone, because we are ALL we need. 💜I promise to ‘rely ‘ on your voice a little more and be your biggest cheerleader. I LOVE YOU❤️, big HUG💜💜we got this! Love, Me🌱🌻🦋🌸🌕💫.”
