Having three children with Scott and recently welcoming a son, Rocky, with Travis, Kourtney emphasized the importance of breaking certain patterns to prevent passing down emotional baggage to the next generation.

However, her sister Khloe expressed skepticism about the efficacy of counseling, suggesting that confronting life's challenges head-on might suffice. Despite this, Kourtney remained resolute about the significance of therapy in breaking detrimental patterns, particularly in relationships, considering it essential to avoid repeating past mistakes.

Discussing the family's relationship history, Kourtney attributed certain patterns, like choosing partners with the intent to change them, to generational traits within their family lineage, notably mentioning their grandmother's history of multiple marriages.

Kris Jenner, their mother, diverted from revisiting the past, focusing instead on her present contentment, while Khloe lightheartedly remarked on the contrast between Kourtney's therapy-oriented approach and their mother's more resistant stance.
