Trevor Noah ON: For People Who FEEL LOST In Life, WATCH THIS To Find Yourself | Jay Shetty
Today, I am talking to Trevor Noah. Trevor is the most successful comedian in Africa and is the host of the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central. Under Trevor, “The Daily Show with Trevor Noah” has broken free from the restraints of a 30-minute linear show, producing engaging social content, award-winning digital series, podcasts and more for its global audience. He has written, produced, and starred in 11 comedy specials, including his most recent, “Trevor Noah: Son of Patricia,” which launched in November 2018 on Netflix. He is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller “Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood” and its young readers adaptation “It’s Trevor Noah: Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood,” which also debuted as a New York Times bestseller.
Trevor opens the conversation by sharing what it was like growing up, how he sees the rest of the world, and why it felt like it was okay growing up the way he did. We then exchange thoughts and perspectives on topics such as finding the true meaning of having a ‘home’, the type of friends we often surround ourselves with and why, finding independence in a completely new and foreign place, and being mindful of yourself and in one with your inner thoughts.
What We Discuss:
00:00:00 Intro
00:02:18 Same story, same book but different meaning
00:05:33 Comparing your hardships to others experiences
00:09:27 “It was not bad because it happened to everyone.”
00:13:27 Are you forced to be grateful for everything?
00:19:13 The true definition of the word home
00:21:39 What is your purpose?
00:25:19 Who are your friends?
00:35:43 Becoming unrelatable to people
00:44:43 How does a monk fire someone?
00:46:48 What is your idea of safety?
00:52:30 When’s the best time to walk away?
00:56:37 Having conversations with yourself
01:03:37 When you leave home
01:09:25 The burden our parents unconsciously give us
01:17:54 The Many Sides to Us
01:24:03 Trevor on Final Five
I like to say “I’m not grateful for my suffering but I found meaning in it. And that meaning is what I’m grateful for “
Baaaaaaaarrrrrssssssss 🔥
This got to me too. It makes more sense.
Beautiful! ❣️
Damn, that is so well put.
Well put
"The only thing scarier than accepting who we are is accepting that we don't know who we will be when we let go of the things that have made us who we are today."
Powerful
This right here
Profound statement, thank you.
This right here is powerful
They talk about dying before dying - that is a total letting go and living life in liberation right here. We cannot control it, we just have to gently let go until the "Berlin" wall crumbles and then, I suspect, it will be a new experience of being.
I'm nearly 70 years old. I just discovered these podcasts. It's work like this that gives me hope for the future. There are so many wonderful younger people, like you, doing amazing work. Thank you.
I am 35 years old and I feel the same way!
I never realized that Trevor was such a cerebral person. This was a great interview!
You too
I know Trevor is smart but boy this conversation gave me a new meaning of life and what's is all about (well almost) thank you both Jay and Trevor.
Trevor Noah is a true Son of Africa. The depth of mindfulness. The spirituality. The empathy. The kindness. The humor. I miss my brothers and sisters of Africa.
I am yet to come across a person in my life where I could have a deep heart to heart conversation like this..people like them are so rare.
Wow, you should look for groups maybe on meet-up app. They're are lots of groups that you could join. There are hiking, spiritual, etc. Also there are addiction groups of all kinds to join. We need others who we feel comfortable with to share with.
I work in retail so I meet a lot of people and I've had a lot of deep conversations with people like this! If you are a people person and want to connect with others working in customer service can be very rewarding.
@@stacielivinthedream8510 me too, am looking for deep people
Exactly. This is the reason that I love Trevor Noah. It's also the reason that I love my best friend 💕. She is one of two people, next to my sister, with whom I can have conversations like this one.
❤ wow! I love Trevor Noah even more now! Not only is he gorgeous and funny he’s also extremely wise! Very inspirational.
Trevor Noah is such a phenomenal human being. Not only is he a comedian but also a teacher and inspiration
only that he became too woke
@@Amish07 Seriously?! You know his background, right? His parents were not even allowed to live together in South Africa. He titled his memoir Born a Crime because of that. If anyone has the right to be "woke", it's Trevor Noah.
@@Amish07 you are too misinformed
@@brendakmorales He's repugnant.
Yesss and he is cute too
Trevor is one smart guy, we need to hear him talk some more. The world needs this kind of content from him
Hopefully in the future...there shall be more. God bless his future family...❤🎉
I agree.
@@clarelouise42 love you
Say that!!🎉
I loved what jay said about, “ The only place higher than heaven/spiritual world is the one where you living your purpose.”
I would rather say it's a place closer to,but not higher than heaven😊
@@ngalahansel6066there is no heaven life to the fullest here
This is the magic that happens when two insightful, enlightened people converse! That there was a free counselling session for us listeners🙏🏼
I was looking for such a comment It is super profound
Yes, exactly my thoughts! So beautiful
Can’t agree more.
👌🥰
Absolutely! Powerful!
This is not an ordinary interview, it's a conversation between two intelligent men that are open to learn from each other.. This is Phenomenal ❣️.... Mad respect for you guys💟
Awesome
So tremendous talks
I absolutely love this!
The deepest and most enriching conversation I have heard in a long time. Thank you gentlemen!
this racist is intelligent obama has brain washed you
I have 4 sons. I'll consider myself a successful mother if they turn out with Trevor Noah's character traits. I want them to have his empathy, compassion, understanding, wisdom, and ability to see humor in life.
We need more nurturing mothers for our sons. That's a great intention for your boys.
wonderful words.
Yes, it's our greatest wish as mothers, along with being able to create something valuable out of adversity. May your wish come true for all your sons. ❤❤❤❤
Smile! I understand! However, what Trevor has accomplished, came with a price. I grew up in the south, but in a different era than my mom and dad and I still will not want to go thru the challenges of growing up to accomplish his success. We as people sometimes want what someone else has, but if we knew their trials and sacrifices made to get it, we’ll say, “Oh no, forget it. I don’t want it!” If U are a believer in Christ Jesus, pray and ask God to give all 4 of your sons those characteristics traits; and to give to U as well, if U don’t have them; but a couple of those requests are taught and learned behaviors. If U haven’t purchased his book, “Born a Crime” please do. Best wishes to U and your sons! ⭕️
@@linawiers4715 Wise. We have to be careful what we ask for. We just might get it and in ways we didn't want. I know something of that. The hand of God is mighty. I will add that we do have to remember as parents to allow our children their own challenges and hurdles to overcome, whatever they may be. We mustn't think loving them means giving them everything we didn't get or sparing them hardships of various kinds. Just be there as a guide or to help them recover, hopefully, better for the lesson. And for those reading along, I'm not talking about standing back and letting extreme things happen to our children, lest anyone go there. We are, of course, to protect our children as best as we can and when necessary, but only when appropriate to the age and developmental ability of each child. Then the question comes, "How do we do this?" Perhaps like you, I learned the discernment needed for this kind of parenting by studying and practicing biblical principles.🙌🏽 I made no important decisions that impacted my son's life without prayer and consulting the Holy Spirit. Thank you for your inspiring comment. 🙏💞 Best!
This is, by far, one of the BEST "brain-picking", thought-provoking & eye-opening interviews I've ever watched! Trevor's way of thinking is utterly mind-blowing & completely OUT OF THIS WORLD!👏🏾❤️
I like "Your friends in life are your horcruxes. We break ourselves into parts. Whenever we meet people, we give them a part of ourselves."
Had to look up the HP word "horcruxes" and was quite surprised what it all includes...
Felt this
My favorite part of the conversation, it literally summarizes this whole conversation and reiterates that he is truly mercurial
My favorite 💝
What I realised is that as we evolve through time, we tend not to resonate with some parts we left in the hands of our friends. They know as differently as we know ourselves now.
This aging Vietnam Vet feels grateful that somehow I found this discussion with Trevor & Jay. It made me look deeper into myself, the good, bad and ugly and how I can become a better human being. A very challenging time over the last several years that has tested all of us. Feel more than ever that kindness, love, truly listening to others can break down the walls between completely diverse people on this small planet of ours.
Maybe our generation had to grow old in order to grow up!!
Well said
Beautiful comment, thanks man.
Beautifully stated
Thank you for your service- you're an inspiration!
21:12 -- "My definition of home has always been where I feel I am living my purpose." 🤔💯
That comfort in chaos phenomenon Trevor talks about hit deeply for me...
I love how clearly he is able to think and explain his thoughts ❤️ Sometimes I really can't find words to explain what I am thinking.
He's a true master of that skill. 🙏
@@em0_tion Exactly....man, same thoughts wllh
its easy i think he is full of shit
Relatable 🤟🧡🇨🇦
This is so powerful 💯
Two lessons I’ve learnt from this episode: 1) I need to reevaluate my safety net and determine whether certain parts of myself that I’m holding onto are actually holding me back. 2) In order to learn and understand others, it is necessary to let go of self. One word for this episode - wow.
Totally agree. Unrelated - I love your name.
you got all that from this racist
I still remember when Trevor was a small time presenter on some South African kids program. His climb has been something out of the heavens.
Absolutely
What’s so special about this is you can tell they’re not trying to impress each other, they’re just sharing thoughts. This kind of interaction is so soothing yet so rare now
This was definitely 2 way interview for two whom I really admire 👌it felt two friends meeting each other
I agree. I thought the same thing. They are a great duo together.
I agree, it was a wonderful conversation and very inspiring. Thank you for sharing this conversation with us Jay
Exactly right? I feel like they must become friends if they're not already.
There's just something about listening to Trevor. I could do it all day. And the way they bounce energies and ideas off of each other is so refreshing. I love this!
I totally agree. I could do it all day, too. (Unfortunately I have a life that interferes... ;-)
It’s amazing, I can listen to Trevor Noah and Jay Shetty speak for hours. It’s the eloquence of their dialogues, the clarity of their answers that allows even for someone with different experience to find logic in their thoughts process. I found a bit of myself that can relate, through this podcast.
Do you know if more conversations between these two? If so please share, I would love to hear them.
When your two mentors seat at the same table, Its Amazing.
I have watched many interviews but this one is on a different level all together...... Trevor and Jay are pure gems, how vulnerable you guys are on this episode is just phenomenal and will definitely help millions of people!!!!
I feel like this is something every other person who is watching the Joe Rogan podcast, and Jordan Peterson should actually watch instead. They're talking about vulnerability and healing in a healthy way, rather than a destructive way.
❤❤
@Enrich Media Kenya, hata mimi loved loved them
He is from South Africa and we are so so proud of him! What a journey! In so many ways we are blessed!
Two brilliant men.lv them to bits🙏🙏🙏
Forgot for a second going into this video that Trevor is also an interviewer, and was reminded about halfway through 😂 I could listen to these two talk for hours
When i first Trevor’s standup I immediately knew that her is one of the wisest and brightest people alive. Now I understand that he is as insightful as he is brilliant❤
The mutual respect and admiration from both Jay and Trevor is amazing
What a feast for the mind, as well as the eyes
I agree
Trevor is self-aware, insightful, mindful, and empathic. To move and grow in life, it's essential that you let go of some things, but it is scary; especially when it is something familiar. Learning how to ask thoughtful questions can result in conversations that go beneath the surface that can promote enlightenment (for the person asking and the person answering the question). Great interview!
Very well put
Their conversation had so many levels. We miss seeing you everyday, Trevor. Jay is more intellectual than I thought. It was an opportunity to see Trevor and Jay differently.
Jay, I have so much more respect for you. It’s good to see how people move in discomfort and get a better idea of who they really are and what they’re really about. I’m glad you posted this interview. 10/10 you shined.
What I appreciate the most about the fruit of this conversation is how at the end of it, you’re fueled with a deep desire to look into yourself and not to necessarily lean onto one’s view or outline of life and that’s super dope… we aren’t being influenced to see life a certain way, we’re being influenced to sit with ourselves and reconcile our experiences and journeys and challenged to grow ❤️
So well said! You summed up exactly how I am feeling.
Love this ❤
❤❤❤ amazing ! I just found Jay ! This combination is amazing ! Out of this world !
Man! I love trevor's mind. The guy is a genius. I love how articulate he is. This is one of the best interviews I've ever seen.
This is by far, one of the greatest prodcasts that you have done Jay. Trevor, just WOW. An inspiration beyond words. I am absolutely blown away, by the depth of this conversation. Love each and every minute, shared between you both. FERTALISER....what a beautiful purpose.
I did not want this conversation to end. Thank you for this.
This is one the Best if not thee best talk show or podcast I've ever Watched, so chilled and profound conversation... Salute Jay Shetty + Trevor Noah 🔥👌💯
Ive only seen Trevor doing comedy but today I resonate at another level. Especially as a someone who suffered from child trauma. Loved the fact that we do not need to be grateful for what happened but for the resilience. Thank you Trevor.
That’s it!
Often comedians understand humanity in a way we dont.
I start typing something but then nothing seems to justify how grateful I feel for Trevor and genuine people like him, so I end up with this 💜Thanks for existing! Beautiful conversation, thanks Jay, was really waiting for Trevor to be on your show. There are fans, and there are admirers but for me, Trevor feels like home/familiar. 💜
Well said!! Such a beautiful sentiment for such an inspiring conversation 🙏🏾.
Yes! He does feel like home.
Mom was a single parent , 5 kids ,now being 67 yrs ,growing up on welfare ,playing street games ,no exams tree ,due each child given a gift ,an a cake on each birthday,an not realized we were undepriveliged ,been grateful for everything. Mom always had music playing even when we had chores.loving home ,spirituality was always on the agender .starting with Sunday school. Pleased to say were all doing ok ,Mom an dad have passed on .I personally I have great memories. xxxx
@@lynoresmith7118 Thank you for sharing your story 🤗💜
Trevor Noah the day walker seems ages ago now ☺️ Very deep and timely conversation here.Keep on
It was truly eye opening to hear what "safe" meant to Trevor and to realize that safety and what it means to be safe is so different for each person. I am a teacher, so this was very necessary for me to hear and understand as it will allow me to further reach and teach my students understanding that their primary need (to be safe) means something different to each and every one of them. Thank you for being fertilizer in my life Trevor!
I would love to hear what you have to say about integrating that into your classroom. If one child finds safety and therefore an ability to learn in chaos while their classmate finds it in solace, can you ever teach a successful lesson or are you doomed to create 2 of everything for the sake of necessary accomodation?

and the hair. 100%
I agree wholeheartedly.
He is a gift especially if u can listen n understand him
I feel the same
Felt the same way
The safer belt keeping you safe but tapping you when it’s no longer needed is a perfect explanation of trauma. Just beautiful. Great conversation.
This conversation has helped me to remember who I am at my core. It also re-inspired me, to forgive myself. Thank you both.
Trevor has such thoughtful perspectives, love that guy.
It was an eye opener when Trevor said” how lonely comedians get after the show has ended”. We hold comedians and other artists in such high regards, that we sometimes don’t think about them as being lonely, ( call me naive if you must). It is so important to have close friends, that understands who you are, and you can totally be yourself with. This was a wonderful interview thank you for sharing ❤❤❤❤.
Stephen Fry spoke to this in an interview. The overwhelming emptiness after experiencing overwhelming adoration from an audience, going back alone, to an empty hotel room.
@@cal2780 yeah I've heard a few comedians talk about it. I've always been a really really really big fan of stand up comedy, like to the point that I would rather watch a stand up that I've seen a hundred times than watch anything else 😂😂😂 so of course I love to watch their interviews. Roy Wood Jr actually talked about being lonely after a live show in 2020 when a lot of the celebrities were doing the "ask me anything" highlight on IG? Roy Wood Jr decided he was going to ask the questions and post people's answers on his highlights and one of them was about being lonely after a show. I remember thinking about Robin Williams when I read Roy's highlight...
I never thought about that after the show let down. I just assumed they partied with a bunch of random people. I know alot of comedians have inner pain or a hard life they use humor to cope
When Jay expressed his purpose in life, I felt it. I receive from his interviews exactly what he described on this interview and I never had an idea that it was his purpose. All of those perspectives help me amplify my view of things and even shape them for better. Jay is phenomenal and this interview is great because both of them have such beautiful and optimistic views of life that I love to soak it all in.❤️❤️
Yes and he’s super intentional about it, it’s inspiring
I love how Trevor Noah is also interviewing Jay on his own show
I love that both Trevor and Jay were interviewing each other. The back and forth should be a lesson on how to seek understanding of others. 🤗
What a blessing it is to be witnessing this conversation!!
The audio book of Born a Crime is amazing because Trevor reads it so it’s like he is talking to you telling his story
Yes I listen to it twice
Now, I'm looking forward to listening to it!
Just wanted to chime in to their conversation about having to be not needing to be grateful for what happened. I think that its not about being grateful for the hard times. It's more about being grateful for the opportunity that it presents. Not saying that sexual abuse and violence are good things because they aren't. Life throws shit at us constantly and most of the times, the shit it throws at us is completely at random. Everyone subjectively goes through their own versions of pain and hardship. But it is important to remember that we aren't defined by the problems and traumas we have experienced in our lives. That is not us, that is not who we are, they are experiences and they are what life has decided to randomly throw at us. Instead I think we are defined by our ability to rise above these circumstances. The harder the circumstance, the greater the opportunity, because to be able to overcome those extremely difficult situations, requires an extreme amount of resilience and faith in ones self to be able to push through and heal from the trauma. So in that sense, it's more about feeling gratitude for the opportunity that each and every circumstance, difficulty or challenge presents to us because we all know that at the end of tunnel there is such a huge amount of potential for us to grow and eventually initiate ourselves into greatness.
I was a psychotherapist for 30 years and I can fully relate to being seen in only one dimension. A few times in those years a client wanted to be friends after their therapy ended. They could not handle or relate to 360° of me and likewise I could not connect with the whole of them. Where people may want/expect Trevor to be funny all the time, my clients thought I would be wise about everything all the time. Perception of people sets the path for the connection or lack of connection. The conversation between the two of you was enlightening and special. Thank you.
Wow , the Level of this intellectual discussion, the ease with which it is delivered and the language and clarity of their minds are beautiful and amazing
Aside from all that, it would be super narcissistic of you to become "friends" with a client, but it happens.
@@dreamingrightnow1174 I disagree. I never suggested a friendship and carefully evaluated the client when they asked to be friends and an appropriate amount of time had elapsed after therapy ended.I have ex clients that became my long term friends.
@@karenknowles1537 How would you handle what Trevor was talking about? Being on stage then nothing - he resorted to chocolate.. do you know what it’s called. I have the same situation.. doing great work in the community-daily-coming home to nothing - overeating. How do we overcome it?
@@wonderfullymade5191 We tend to fill an emotional void with something. For some people it is drugs, sex, food, work and countless other things. Recognizing the void is the first step, talking about it out loud with others is the next step. The third step is to try something other than our chosen fix. It will most likely feel strange and unsatisfying in the beginning. But stay with and try several things until something clicks a bit. It takes about two weeks to form a new habit. Be patient with your self, the emotional void you feel is painful. 🌷
Trevor Noah is so articulate man. Bro is so aware of himself and seems like such a rational person. I loved this video so much
I totally understand Trevor's ability to handle chaos better than calm.
I have platonically loved Trevor for years and I'm so happy I will be able to see him perform in June. This is such an amazing interview, thank you Jay! Namaste
I love that this is one of Jay's only two way conversation with a guest. This interview feels like a true collaboration
Yessss!!!!
What a fantastic interview. I see Trevor as such a gracious, kind, open-hearted man. Jay, I see you as being just as kind and open-hearted. Beautiful to watch two open-hearted men share their souls. What has stuck with me from the podcast is much; however, Trevor shares how he views being grateful, and not being grateful for the traumatic event, but grateful for what was learned and how he grew from the experience. Wow, that is big. The term grateful and gratitude get used out of context often. I so enjoyed this special interview. Thank you.
I agree 💯!! This interview was so powerful that it brought tears to my eyes from such profound, honest, & thought provoking statements & ideas.
👌
Being comfortable in chaos totally relatable to my core...thanks Trevor for bringing this to discussion
As an African, I always relate to his stories, and feel attached. We have the same mindset and view of the world. I've always appreciated this man.
I'm grateful for this conversation for many reasons, partly because I have heard Trevor say " my child"... As an African I can't wait to see Trevor Noah Jr 😍🤠
Lmao me too😂, when I heard that I was like oh he changed his mind now 😅
Sure!
It surprised me to hear that too !
"Friendship is a choice"- we forget that so often. Thank you for sharing Gents. Reflecting right now on so many things. 😍
Trevor Noah is so talented and in so many ways. I love his contributions in this time. He’s positive, so funny, completely lovable and needed in our day! ❤
Trevor has the ability to make others think beyond their perspectives without casting judgment. I love the way he takes complex subjects and simplify them. He has a beautiful mind!! I appreciate his storytelling.
I loved that Trevor said he hopes to be fertilizer to enrich the soil. I must say both Trevor and Jay have provoked many thoughts by asking the questions they have and sharing their perspectives on topics. I am grateful for this. I personally took away alot of understanding from this interview about why I myself interact in the world the way I do and how I want to proceed.
It's so enrishiñg listening to people. Who have something real to talk about.🙏
Took it from this interview Jay and Trevor sound people.
I have never felt more relatable to Trevor then I do now. This was such a good conversation between you two, opened a lot more avenues that I need to reflect on in my own life.
I used to be a fan to Trevor Noah as a comedian, but now I am amazed also by the other side of his personality as a person, this interview is on a very different level, thank you for sharing
I got chills when Jay was talking about the child with no arms and how he wanted to help. Then the buffet not having better menu. You two connected very sweetly
That was great.. I learned that. I don't always have to glorify or be grateful of the pain but acknowledge the resilience that I got from it. 2. Never assume 3. Like a seatbelt it's the most important thing when it comes to your safety on the road or air but when it becomes dysfunctional you can get stuck.(apply it in your life) This conversation was so profound. I love ❤️ Trevor Noah. Learnt alot for sure
Omg I didn't know you were going to have Trevor on.Trevor is always a blessing.No matter what he Talks about, I could listen to him ALL DAY!
Trevor is phenomenal I love the way he process the world & his reflectiveness, wow.
"Definition of home" is adapting to your environment and keeping a piece of your culture to share with people that you are spiritually connected with!
I would love to hear Trevor talk more about how he manages his ADHD. I'm a therapist who made assumptions about people with that diagnosis. Not good ones. Trevor has changed my perspective. He could help so many to feel better about themselves. I would never have guessed he has that diagnosis.
Me too! Because I have ADHD and its been incredibly challenging. Wish I hadn't been misdiagnosed for years and years whenever I attempted to seek help.
One's success in managing ADHD is greatly influenced by one's emotional maturity and mental development.
Man, I can watch these two brilliant minds converse for 10 hours straight. Love the fact you both asking each other questions and honoring the answers. This is fantastic and so therapeutic. Need to do it again very soon. ❤
I feel the same way.I wish they have 2. Part and 3. Part The depth of this conversation was refreshing compered to other people podcast.Thank You Trevor & Jay
Love your phrasing, "...honoring the answers" Many have mastered the question part and have yet to get to the listening. Bravo.
Trevor made me cry. He is a beautiful human. His answer of wanting to be fertilizer - mind expanding!
Shirley from Alberta…me, too! Felt so moved by his response…fertilizer! I try and do this, too! I guess that is why we both teared up.💜💕👩🏼
You cannot buy the messages, opinions, experiences, intellectuality of the both of them in a book, movie or imagination. So genuine! Thank you gentlemen ❤🎉
“I try my best to eliminate GOOD or BAD”, that was powerful
The humility is striking, from both Jay and Trevor. That makes this a profound conversation. Thanks for sharing with us.
Trevor & Jay... What an incredible duo of articulate culture and wisom ❤
Love Trevor Noah!
One of the best episodes yet, so grateful for this podcast. If you haven't read Trevor's book "Born a Crime" highly recommend it, especially the audio version. It's like he's sitting there telling you his life's story over coffee.
Thank you for commenting this, I’ll definitely get it!
It’s on my list, I absolutely adore Trevor Noah. Will miss his nightly show.
So the audio version is Trevor's voice?
@@MomoHien Yes, Trevor narrates
How validating. Two individuals I have great respect for. I’m not grateful for being molested by father during adolescence and then pretend to the entire family that he was a good man, or abused by my narcissistic mother all my life. I am thankful that the gift of finding my voice in poetry has helped me shed most of the pain. “Claiming your Choices Claiming choices Hidden trauma silenced voices. I attack the me still the broken adult child you see. I wouldn’t trash a dear friend as I attack my faults built on shifting sands.

It’s home because of the loving accepting locals that embraced me for the 13 years I lived there. First time the turning to drugs and alcohol as an entertainer, makes sense to me. Such an amazing discussion. Thank you from my heart.
Thanks for sharing truly beautiful ❣️
This is so beautiful! I’ve come to read it more than once. Make sure you share this with the world ❤
I love the verse. So intense. Glad you made it through I'm sorry for your pain. So many of us have been there. We are all in this together.

Trying to find myself at 56 but you help me on this Sunday afternoon in year 2023 ..thanks for the great conversation ❤...in Jamaica cooking my Sunday dinner 😅❤
Thank you so much! I'm from Ukraine. The interviews you've been doing are such a beautiful therapy. This one is healing as well. 🙏
In my opinion the best and most interesting interview of the podcast ever!
Most people can't receive love; so refreshing that Jay understands this. It can be challenging & even lonely being a deep thinker & I believe whenever we deep thinkers all scattered about the globe find another kindred spirit, even if they're on YT, TV, an author of a book, or whatever we'll feel that unspoken connection over the distance & airwaves even if it is in one direction, you know you're not alone. We truly are in a unified field.
Trevor Noah is my celebrity crush and I love listening to him talk about life❤ thank you Jay Shetty for this amazing conversation
‘ I don’t need to live my life according to others standard- well said Trevor. Even so called Guru or philosophers found their truth; we need to find our truths and meaning
As a South African in Pretoria , I am so proud to see my dearest brother Trevor making it possible. I have always been a fan of Jay Shetty, but this interview stands out to be the best, not because I am biased because Trevor is my hommie but mostly because he always asks question and today he answers them without thinking.
Thanks Brian, 🙏🙏🙏♥️
Trevor is one of the smartest of our times: his piece on men and intimacy was so beautiful! Love everything he shares. This is also an incredible masterclass in vulnerability. True vulnerability doesn't mean sharing ALL life info, facts and timelines yet being artfully open enough to connect through the deepest experience we have lived. Trust is sharing of facts, little details and timelines- give that info away when you've built trust but vulnerability can be practiced with anyone and its quite a foundation for best relationships!
Not only is Trevor insightful but he's thought as well...in a world that lacks mindfulness, it was refreshing listening to him speak his mind.
Trevor, you are an amazing Human. Thank you for your thoughtfulness!
What struck me was how Jay defined HOME. "Home is where I'm living my purpose" When he said that I got chills as I feel the same way but was never able to put it to words. Also being grateful for my resilience from the suffering or trauma deeply resonated with me. Thank you
Always been a fan of Trevor and now I am simply so happy to see and understand these views of trevor. Honestly one of the best podcasts totally loved it!
This whole podcast with Trevor and Jay was so wholesome, the part where these guys discussed taking up the role of the "Peacemaker" and how your seatbelt can also become your trapping made me tear up at how much it was resonating with me. I also liked how they discussed the mind and that we really need to understand these concepts surrounding our minds more. But some moments like how thoughtful Trevor's answers were at the end had me feeling giddy at the same time. And the explanation of how society is designed for the 'normal' was also very eye-opening. This was phenomenal to watch.
Trevor Noah is so centered. It’s extremely attractive. May God continue to bless you, Trevor.
There's no way you can't feel moved or uplifted after that. Amazing conversation 🙏🏾
This was one of the most amazing podcasts I've ever watched. I came for jokes and found a sober but open Trevor. Thanks Jay and Trevor.
Me too
Jay is a genuine person who makes you feel at ease.
Love the fact that interviews of Trevor tend to always require the interviewer to be vulnerable as well. And fortunately both of these men are fascinating
