Caitlyn Jenner might be trying to balance too much.

The I Am Cait star, who also occasionally appears on her family's Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality show, has canceled a five-city speaking tour.
"Unfortunately those dates conflicted with another work commitment," Jenner's representative told People on Thursday.
Jenner, 66, was reportedly set to make appearances in Vancouver, Denver, San Francisco and Seattle as part of her "Up Close and Personal" tour beginning February 22 in Toronto, Canada.
Jenner publicly came out as transgender last summer and quickly transitioned into a woman. Since then, she's shared her personal story and stands up for acceptance and better understanding of the transgender community.

Her efforts have received an incredible amount of support, but naturally there's backlash as well. Some transgender people accuse Jenner of "overemphasizing" clothing and makeup, while others can't relate to her since she's "wealthy, white and privileged."
The reality TV star recently told The Advocate magazine, however, she's not trying to represent the group as a whole.
"The media has kind of labeled me as the spokesperson for the trans community. That is not the case. I am only a spokesperson for my own journey. After that, I know nothing. Am I learning a lot? Absolutely. I'm just trying to do my best, that's all," Jenner explained.
"I can handle anything. I can take criticism. I honestly don't have a problem with it... I never expected as positive a response as I've gotten."
E! announced it had renewed I Am Cait for a second season back in October 2015. It's slated to premiere later this year.
