One of the big components of her "next phase" is getting people to stop seeing Katie as Mrs. Tom Cruise. "Things are not handed to anyone. If anything, you work a little bit harder when you're in such visible circumstances."

Katie, who was 26 when she began dating Tom, also says that her perspective on life has changed a lot since becoming a mother and entering her 30s. "I definitely feel much more comfortable in my own skin. I feel sexier," she says. "I'm starting to come into my own. It's like a new phase."

Katie's interview with Elle Magazine hits newsstands on July 17.
