Kim Kardashian's assistant Stephanie Shepherd basically runs the mum-of-two's life from her smartphone. 

She's the girl slightly in the background of the paparazzi photos, keeping the Kardahian's schedule running smoothly. 

As well as managing Kim's life since 2013, the 29-year-old has become fast friends with the entire family.

The now COO of Kardashian West Brands opened up to Refiney 29 about what it's like to work for the most famous reality TV star in the biz. 

According to Stephanie, it's a constant stream of work and travel, but with a communal, family feel. 

Reflecting on what ahe has learnt from the Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner, Stephanie had this to say:

'If you're a procrastinator, this is not the world for you.'

'If someone tells her no, she has no problem standing her ground and saying, "We're not accepting that, get someone on the phone and make it happen."'

'That woman can literally get on the phone and change the world.'

'And somehow, she juggles all of these kids, all of their careers, and still makes sure that every assistant, every staff member, has a Christmas present, delivered to us by Christmas, with a thoughtful card.'

'And it’s a nice ass Christmas present. That’s the kind of person I aspire to be one day.'

Who run the world? Kris Jenner, apparently.
