Jordyn Woods Gets Real About Finding Her “Self Worth”

Many people only know Jordyn Woods as Kylie Jenner's ex-best friend, but the model and designer appears to be coming into her own. The 21-year-old, who made headlines for being embroiled in a cheating scandal with Khloé Kardashian's ex, Tristan Thompson, sat down for an in-depth interview with Teen Vogue about how she coped with the fallout, and how she's growing into her own person.

“Everyone is trying to figure out what I'm doing but, to be honest, I don't know what I'm doing. I'm finding my self worth,” Jordyn told the mag. “At 21, this is the very beginning, even though I feel so old. This is the time you figure out who you are, and don't let anyone define you.”

Jordyn also spoke about creating a dialogue around mental health. “I wish there was a course that everyone had to take,” she said. “We should open the conversation of mental health and start discussing it in classrooms, and among each other. Especially in the black community — that's not something we talk about.”

As to how she faced the aftermath from the Tristan and Khloé drama, Jordyn says she found new ways to occupy her time, like puzzles, piano, and movies. “When all this stuff happened, I stayed in and I started a lot of hobbies,” she explained.

When asked if she believes she went through a “friend breakup” with her former BFF Kylie Jenner, Jordyn questioned what the definition of a “breakup” was and searched online for term's actual meaning. “'The separation or breaking up of something into several pieces or sections. The end of a relationship,'” she found.

She went on to respond with a question of her own: “Those are the two things. What I'd ask is, 'Does anything really end? Or is it a cycle?'”
