What was it about real estate that drew you to it?
I’ve always been really into the real estate game.
I just never had the time because TV ended up being a 14-year career.
I’m really excited to be back with the new show on discovery+.
What would you say that you’ve learned throughout the show?
I’m really truly learning real estate with the best real estate company out there,Douglas Elliman.
They are training me.
This is a real career move for me, and it could be a big win for everyone.
So, do you think you’re going to continue in real estate going forward now?
I signed up for real estate to provide for my children.
No, no, no.
No, not at all.
I had no idea what was coming my way.
It’s a really exciting time.
Oh man, just keep having fun, just enjoy life, and I did!
I mean, nothing’s perfect.
No stage is perfect.
I would like to know who’s perfect out there.
Tell me your ingredients of a perfect stage of life, just.
No, I’m enjoying every stage of my life.
The biggest challenge was getting to know myself for three years alone.
So I got to know who I am, and that’s the biggest challenge of my life.
Like you said, with the world telling you who you are.
Obviously, you’re in the public eye.
What do you feel is the biggest misconception about the way the media and people see you?
People have gotten to know me.
That’s the thing; people have gotten to know me through the years.
So, my fan base who have followed me, they know.
I’m a tomboy dork mom.
I’m such a dork mom.
That’s pretty much it.
You’re on your own path.
it’s crucial that you take your own small steps, whatever they are.
You’re the only one that knows what those small steps are to achieve the bigger picture.
No one else can tell you that but yourself.
It’s so easy to like, “Oh my God, how can I …
There’s no competition; the only competition is with yourself.
Focus on yourself, focus on your own, and you might create your own way.
You might create your own little thing and believe in yourself.
That’s how I’m doing it.
The worst parts are exposing my weaknesses and my blond moments.
At least that’s real, though.
Yeah, I’m having fun.
Again, I’m not ashamed.
I’m having fun.
What can viewers look forward to in Season 2?
Is there going to be a Season 2?
Oh, we don’t know that yet.
We don’t know.
It’s on discovery+.
A lot more goes into it than the one person.
What pieces that you learned from your time on reality TV are you taking with you going forward?
I’ve been preparing, I think, for this real estate business for longer than I thought.
I started working at 16.
I never stopped working.
It doesn’t look like I’m working, but I’m working.
You make it look fun.
What would you say was the biggest challenge learning real estate and starting out at a run like that?
The biggest challenge starting real estate is just really admitting that I need to really earn this.
I need to work hard and put the time and effort into this job.
Celebrity is only going to get you so far.
You have to earn it, you have to earn it.
Earning it takes time.
It takes patience, a lot of patience.
So yeah, that’s the hardest part.
I guess that comes with any new job you’re starting out.
Yeah, I mean, it’s a challenge.
It’s really important to commit to this business, and they are rooting for me as well.
Yeah, you don’t want to forget yourself while you’re looking out for them.
No, putting your kids first is putting yourself first.
What’s your go-to way to relax after a long day?
You said a cigar too?
I love cigars now.
Yeah, I love cigars, whiskey, and some golf.
I’m like a guy, I’m like an old guy.
That is my happiness; that’s my ultimate.
You want me in heaven, then you give me a cigar, some whiskey, and some golf.
I have a few amazing friends that have really stuck by my side through challenging times.
They’re always asking me how I am, but no one’s there holding my hand through anything.
That’s up to me.
What aspect of your personality do you think maybe new viewers will be most surprised by?
Well, I’m still me, so they’re going to discover Kendra selling Hollywood.
I’m just kidding.
It’s still you, just a new environment, right?
Yeah, but I’m really taking it serious.
It’s very important.
The test is the test, but the business is the business two completely, very different things.
I learned that really fast.
Yeah, that’s why I took a step back these last few years.
These last few years, I chose to not fight to be famous anymore.
I just chose to accept it and accept myself and learn who I really am.
Yeah, I mean, I didn’t even know if I could film TV again.
The cameras turned on that first day, I’m like, “What do I do again?”
It came right back to me.
The thing about me is I guess [we’re] more powerful than we think.
It’s almost like I was chosen to do this or something.
I don’t go chasing it or anything; it’s almost like it’s choosing me or something.
It’s almost like I, I don’t know.
I feel like I have messages [that are sent] from God or something.
I’m just kidding.
I’m just kidding.
I think that it’s really cool.
I’ve been into black and white movies lately because I’m trying to get my love thing back.
So I’ve been watching “The Masked Singer.”
That’s been really fun to watch lately.
So it’s between “The Masked Singer” and black and white movies.
Black and white movies, like very romantic.
I’m trying to get that side of me back [and] pumping.
This is my heart.
And being a single mom, you don’t really have a lot of time.
I don’t even have any help cleaning or anything.
I don’t really have a lot of time.
There’s not that much time to be watching TV.
Do you have any favorites of those older, romantic movies you’ve been watching?
You know who I’ve really fallen in love with isAudrey Hepburn.
And she’s just … what a light, what a light.
And she was just a beautiful person.
And that’s who inspires me.
Are those the kind of messages you feel like you want to put into the world as well?
I see myself a lot in her.
Do you have any ideas of kind of the area you’d want to work in with that?
Yeah, there are so many ideas.
I want to change the world [in] every way.
Just really heartbreaking for me, and how can we change that?
How can we change that?

What is your favorite celeb look of the year?
My favorite celebrity look of the year.
Who do we have?
Oh, you know who?
I really love Kate, the princess.
What’s her name?
Kate, the princess …
Kate Middleton?
Kate Middleton’s style is my favorite.
So if I were to have a real estate agent look, it would be hers.
I really love [her look].
Yeah, she’s it.
I love her style.
She has that classic Audrey Hepburn feel too.
She’s so just down to earth, real.
I just love her.
I love, I love her.
