Kim Kardashian West is apparently a changed woman after experiencing her harrowing robbery in Paris.

Being robbed of $10 million in jewelry back in October, Kardashian West received a big shock to the system. While the reality star was often open with flaunting her wealth before the robbery, she took a lengthy break from social media in the final months of 2016 and focused on her kids, North, 3, and Saint, 1.

The whole experience has reportedly humbled Kardashian West in a way, says a source.

"Taking time off after the robbery has really changed Kim. And for the better. She initially was just too shocked and traumatized to deal with anything but her kids," a source told People recently.

"As time went on, she realized that she actually loved her slower life," they continued. "She feels very grateful that she has been able to spend the past few months just focusing on her kids. Kim thinks they are growing too fast and she has enjoyed spending more quiet time with them."

Kardashian West has been popping up at public events here and there over the past few months, supporting husband Kanye West at a concert in November for example, but has still been mostly lying low.

"She does seem ready now though to tackle more work. She will still be on a much slower schedule than before the robbery," the source explained. "She is carefully choosing work events and projects that she wants to focus on for the next few months. Her mindset seems very different. She acts more relaxed when it comes to work," says the source. "She will definitely not go back to overloading her schedule again any time soon. She seems to have find a much better life balance. And it seems to make her much happier."
