PEOPLE has an exclusive preview of the model and TV personality's appearance on the latest episode of ABC News Studios' Impact x Nightline, in which she explains what sparked the change in her life to as she journeys to reconcile her birth identity of Angela Renée White with the Blac Chyna persona she adopted more than a decade.

She continues by sharing her distinction between her true self and her public presence.

As part of the transformation, the star said she was ready to change her exterior as well.

"I just wasn't happy [with] the way — how I look," said the former Rob & Chyna star, who previously got breast implants, facial fillers and seven rounds of illegal butt injections. "I did these things to make me happy, which served its purpose because that's why we're here today. You know what I mean?"

She adds, "Now that it's served its purpose, I'm cutting ties with it so I can move on to the next chapter of my life."

This echoed what the star said in several candid videos posted on Instagram last month discussing getting the procedures reversed from inside the doctor's office in a paper gown.

Chyna told her 16.5 million followers, "As y'all know, I'm changing my life and changing my ways. So one of the things that I feel like is gonna take me to the next level is obviously taking some of these ass shots out." She also noted she also was on her way to "get my buttocks reduced and also my breasts."
