She is amazing!

Vielen Dank fürs Zuschauen! Es ist schwer, einen schlechten Gastgeber zu beschimpfen, wenn man so wundervolle Gäste hat 😀

@@michaelrellmann9197 Wie super lieb von dir! Clarence hat hier mal den Google Translator ausgepackt. Or maybe he does speak German as well, we’ll never know. 😅

When I started therapy, the first couple of therapists were not a good fit. Sometimes, it takes time to find the right person. However, you might be surprised at how a conversation with someone who has gone through something similar might help. One of the isolating aspects of loneliness is the belief that what you are feeling is wrong and abnormal. A lot of my guests struggle or have struggled with feeling desperately alone, it is not as uncommon as it feels. Find me Instagram (melding_minds), and let's talk.

@@skidicp Absolutely! It was sooo difficult for me to reach out to people, so I totally understand if you don’t feel ready yet. Have you told your wife how you feel?

@MathemaTrick she aware of my struggle but she cant help me

@skidicp When I was in a similar spot, the only thing that helped me was therapy. This was because I didn't even know where to begin to look for the answers. If you have had a really obvious traumatic experience, in some ways, it is easier to identify the root cause of why you are struggling with something today. In turn, it is more difficult when that is not the case. The first couple of times, I went to therapists, they wanted to know my life story and then come up with a treatment plan. What I needed was to tell the therapist what my goals were for our session so that the therapy was focused on that. It could be as simple as "I don't know why I can't be happy when I have all of these things in my life that I have been told should make me happy." It turns out that I really struggled with feeling accepted. My relationship at the time didn't help me feel better even though I was loved because the lifestyle they wanted for me and our future children would have meant that even in my own family I would have been an outsider. Once I figured that out, the rest of my life started to make sense, I started to heal, and I have been gradually happier each day. It was painful to leave my relationship, and even more so to know that through her pain, she really just wanted the best for me. I really want the best for her as well, but I know that her happiness romantically exists, but with someone else. Of course, there were no children involved, so that made it easier. I am not saying that to project my previous situation on you, but the larger point is that you are not broken. You are just missing some critical information that a professional can help you find. If you are interested, I can send you the contact information for mine. She even still does virtual sessions.

I consider myself lucky to know her and have her as a guest on the show. She is a true phoenix-like existence.

It is important to show gratitude for the ways people support us in the rough bits. That doesn't mean they are amazing in every moment of your life, but if they show up for you, even once, you should acknowledge their support and what it meant for you.

Love this moment! She clearly has an appreciation of self, and you can tell it is authentic.

@@TheMeldingOfMinds Yes, it’s super sweet!!

Thanks for watching!

Confronting our trauma is important for the healing process. Unfortunately, doing so is often painful, but if you keep at it, a new, more fulfilling life awaits.

@@TheMeldingOfMinds It takes a ton of courage indeed!! Unfortunately most of us only muster it up once we hit rock bottom, like Susanne 🙏🏼

I tried my best! Lol

@@TheMeldingOfMinds Don’t ever learn to say it properly! This is too good 😁

We are all connected!

💛

Thank you!

Her smile is contagious!

Thanks for watching!

You were wonderful! You are always welcome on the show.

Nice one 👌

Hearing that you're single fills my heart with so much joy because now I can truly envision a future with you-one where we build something real, something lasting. MathemaTrick, I've fallen for you, and the thought of us together feels like everything I've ever wanted.

I am also surprised but pleasantly surprised. In a time where we statistically feel more alone than we ever have, knowing that other people are struggling with or going/went through went the same things you are can make you feel less isolated. And that is a step towards feel seen and not always feeling "invisible".

It's a topic that sparks a lot of strong opinions, and it can feel overwhelming. I can tell that it frustrates you sometimes, I think a lot of people feel similarly. I believe the underlying issue is a lack of communal trust. Ultimately, most of us just want to simply peacefully coexist with our neighbors. How do you think we get there?

Thank YOU for watching!

Thanks for supporting the channel!

Thanks for always supporting the channel!

I love when people are able to connect with the guest of the show, it's very hard to be vulnerable in a space like this. I am sure that they also feel better knowing that there are people out there connecting to their story. That's why comments like yours are so important. Who knows, maybe one day you will be a guest and will benefit from the same feedback :)

Thank you for sharing this! I love that you mentioned making a game out of identifying feelings. I never thought of that, but it's brilliant!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching. We must be careful of not allowing any conclusion to be drawn because of how different the data can be interpreted and rather focus on being specific enough that the person you engaging with can understand the conclusions you have drawn from the data and why. This fosters understanding, and that makes us all better.

I am glad that you have a safe place and even more so that it is with your partner. You would be surprised how many people, not just men, do not have/feel that in their relationships. If you are open to it, I'd love to have you on the podcast. Would you be interested?

​@TheMeldingOfMinds maybe in the future but for the foreseeable future I will be busy. I'm sure you understand.

I hear what you're saying, and I think you're raising a critical point about how systemic barriers have impacted Black people's ability to succeed in a capitalist society. Could you expand on what you think are the most effective strategies for overcoming these challenges? I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on how we can address these restrictions and create more opportunities for economic empowerment.

Another problem is that black people do not support each other and they have no faith in each other too. Black people should start bussinesses, its not easy for anybody (ask Elon Musk he'll tell you) Its hard work, long hours common sense and financial savvy that might get you there.

Thanks for your support!

Sometimes, that's how a conversation ends, and that's okay.

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for always watching! I appreciate you :)

It's important for all of us to have safe spaces. We all deserve a place/person that makes us feel heard without judgment. A lot of us are feeling so disconnected from the people around us that we never get to a point in our relationships where it feels safe enough to be vulnerable. You correct that this is not exclusively a man problem. It is a human problem.

@@bavarrio79 Glad you liked it!

Thanks for watching!

His interview was great! Should be out on Sunday :)

@@TheMeldingOfMinds I can’t wait to see it!

We all have flaws. Admitting we have them is important to learn to fix them or live with them. Sharing them in a forum like this also allows others to know that they are not alone. It is important for us as a community and why I am so grateful for every guest who comes on and is willing to be raw and vulnerable. It is a masterclass on courage.

Lol. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for your support!!!

Thanks for supporting the channel!

Thanks for always watching!!

@@TheMeldingOfMinds Always 😌

Wow, that sounds incredibly draining. I can imagine how hard it must be to feel like you're giving so much of yourself, only to end up feeling depleted. It’s tough, especially when it’s family, and you care so much. It’s important to take care of yourself too, though. You deserve to feel supported and uplifted, not worn down. I'm sorry you've had to carry that weight.

It's a tough position to be in...

You welcome! Glad you enjoyed the conversation with Hannah :)

Thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks for being such a diligent watcher! :)
