Kourtney Kardashian urged her sister Kim to postpone her law exams following a brain aneurysm scare.
The 46-year-old reality star expressed concern for her 45-year-old sibling after doctors warned that the stress of balancing her studies, filming for new legal drama All's Fair, and family life could cause her brain aneurysm to "rupture".
In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim revealed: "I called Keith Black, the brain surgeon, and I sent him a picture of it. He was like, 'I want you to come in for all this imaging'."
She continued: "I asked, 'Can I wait? What makes it rupture?' They're like, 'Just stress.'".
Kim confessed that her stress levels had escalated to "the point of hives", as she strived to be there for her children North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and six-year-old Psalm, whom she shares with ex-husband Kanye West.
She added: "I have four kids that depend on me. I have to be sane. It's stressful out there, but this aneurysm can't be stressed."
In a heartfelt confession, Kourtney admitted she was "definitely worried about Kim" during the time of filming. She said: "She has so much going on between work and her four kids that I don't want her to have an aneurysm."
Kourtney suggested that Kim should consider delaying her pursuit of a career in law. She advised her sister: "I'm not shaming or judging, but isn't there a time to do it later once your kids are more grown and they don't need you as much?"
However, Kim - who has since disclosed that she didn't pass her bar exam - contended that her children were the motivation for pursuing her dreams at this time. In a heartfelt confession, the American star said: "I love that my kids see me go to school.
"When I drop them off at school, they see me go to school. I enjoy that."
Kim did admit to being "addicted to studying", and relishes the opportunity to delve into new experiences. She further stated: "I love educating myself.
"I just wouldn't feel like myself if I wasn't always learning and trying new things."
