Khloé Kardashian has never been one to shy away from being vulnerable in the public eye, and now she’s addressing why she chooses to share even her darkest moments.

PEOPLE caught up with the reality star, 40, ahead of the launch of her new Khloud Protein popcorn launch and she opened up about her dedication to staying authentic to herself in the midst of fame.

“I feel like I was given this opportunity, these platforms, for a reason. And it’s really easy to sort of believe the hype and forget really where you came from and just believe the BS because so much of it is filler,” she says. “We have to have some sort of core and heart and moral compass.”

Kardashian, who starred on Keeping Up with the Kardashians for 20 seasons and just wrapped the finale of season 6 of The Kardashians on Hulu alongside her mother, Kris Jenner, 69, and sisters Kourtney, 46, Kim, 44, Kendall Jenner, 29, and Kylie Jenner, 27, has given viewers an inside look at some of the most personal and difficult periods of her life.

But the reality star is glad to do so, she says, so that viewers and fans might feel less alone in what they might be going through in their own personal lives.

“I do want to be a voice for people that sometimes feel like they don’t have one, or that feel like they fell through the wayside. And if I can do that in any regard, then I want to. That even goes for some of the things that I show on our TV show. Not everything is pretty and perfect, but I do that to hopefully let people not feel so isolated and alone,” Kardashian explains. “What if they’ve had similar journey that I’ve been on?”

The Good American co-founder continued, “It’s not because I necessarily think those are great moments of mine. It’s because I feel like, you know, this happened to me. I can’t be the only person that something this terrible happened to. Maybe if I share my story, someone will feel less alone and feel like they have a community. So in that regard, that’s why I do that.”

Throughout the years, fans and viewers have watched the reality star through pivotal life moments, including her divorce from ex-husband Lamar Odom and her journey to motherhood with her daughter True, 7, and son Tatum, 2, both of whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Tristian Thompson.

On the season 6 finale of The Kardashians, which aired on Thursday, April 10, Kardashian opened up about her decision to reunite with Odom after nine years.

“Anyone that knows my situation or has been in my situation would be a different version of themselves this many years later. It would be foolish not to be. You have to protect yourself and grow,” she said.
