Thank you, both of you, for this precious episode. If I may ask... would you consider making an exception about how the comments are dealed with on this one, with maybe pre-moderation? Many transphobic comments, it can be quite problematic for our fellow trans folks and TH-cam does not act quick enough when signaled, sadly enough.
Please interview John Gray. He is a former Monk who wrote "Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus" and many other relationship books. . He often appears on Michelle Marchant Johnson, You Tube channel. I think you two would have alot to talk about seeing that you were both monks.
This guy makes every guest feel like the most important and understood person in the world. There are very few personalities/empaths like him. What a guy.
You mean girl. There is no operation which can change your chromosomes and make you actually change your sex, regardless of what the woke people are telling you
Absolutely. Transitioning, in public Especially for a celebrity known by many people. Being a minority, you can really get alot of pain and targeted hate being trans. I been shielded alot of my life that I can’t personally say I’m trans to anyone I can’t trust. Elliott doesn’t have that being a celebrity :c
It's a rough time to transition in the US. A lot of discrimination still runs rampant even though it's 2024. Unfortunately. I hope that over time, people educate themselves and learn to be a little more kind towards people who are different from them. Life's too short to be a dick to marginalized folk. Cheers 🩵✌️
There is nothing more damaging to a persons psychological wellbeing than being prevented from, or being unable to, live their authentic self. I think this is tremendously brave and send everyone love ❤
Hi Jay and Elliot, I am 66 years of age and still learning about myself I am not sure if it ever stops. Just me living in the world for 66 years. A person's mind switches and changes over the years I have notice I am more open and able to accept people for whom they think they are and try not but my judgement on them. I love the one rule STOP BULLING People that be great one. Thank you both enjoy your openness and sharing
Its depressing when everyone is constantly harassing you and discriminating against you mate. Transitioning completely cured my dysphoria but I cant escape transphobia now
@@valenz1234yes, but there’s also what people don’t tell for various reasons, pride but also the weight of the trans community, expressing regret or feelings of depression because of the transition are not welcomed with open arms by the trans community
Regardless of what you believe or don’t believe, this is a person. Respect for another human shouldn’t be based on what you think is right and wrong. We are all trying to navigate through life the best we can so who is anyone to judge. Keep that in mind before you mindlessly leave a nasty comment.

He still comes of as depressed to me tbh. I'm getting the feeling that he thought transitioning would be the answer to his mental problems, but it didn't help in the end. I'm genuinly worried he'll do something bad to himself in the future...
While a part of me is selfishly missing Ellen I am happy for Elliot to find his peace and joy in life. Such a lovely human being. Thank you Jay for sharing him with us all. 🙏❤️
Who cares he didn't smile. not smiling is not indicative or happiness, you are trying to read into something because you already have a biased thought, and that sounds like projection@@MarthaMyDear6
All of the "nice and postiive and agreeing" comments are on top, and the critical ones and disagreeing are at the bottom. Whats up with that TH-cam? Also: Elliot deff didn't do a good service to talk more in depth about this topic.
The guest looks miserable, and the guest looks like there has been no sleep for weeks. I feel so bad for the guest, i wish the guest the best, the guest was once a great performer whos movies i enjoyed seing.
It's really nice that Elliot shares his experiences because most of us have never encountered such situations, and it's important to gain insight into how challenging it can be, even if it's not something that commonly happens
The problem is you can no longer speak out against this in any way on platforms like TH-cam. I already had a couple of community guidelines strikes(or warnings). Had last one today, where a window popped up and said if I say anything they don't like again, I could have my ability to comment closed or the whole channel terminated. I took a screenshot of it, they couldn't even tell me what message it was about, but I think I know.
Of course you can speak out against this, BUT it depends on how you say it. There are even still videos on this platform online, that support your opinion. The reason your comments suddenly disappear is likely because of either your content insults these people, instead of sharing actual arguments for the opinion, or you state that science has proven that that all of this doesn’t exist (which isn’t true, even if you don’t want to hear it). I’m not sharing your opinion, but I would really like to understand yours better. Why are you scared of these people or where do you see the actual problem in the way they want to live? These are the questions you can talk about here.
If you want to figure out how to talk about it i suggest looking at channels like Blaire White. She's a trans woman who's interviewed and talked about detranstioners on her channel. She's also been a vocal critic of transitioning children.
Everybody’s going to die one day and you know what the haters are going to be thinking in that last moment between the veil? Not other people’s identities. They’ll probably realize how much they actually hated themselves. Love to all.💖
Not every disagreement is "being a hater". And if you are the knower of some higher existential truth, I suggest you'd start sharing it with the world, to prevent people leaving their bodies in the state you've described
Listening to this interview was great, I’ve loved Elliot Page for a long time and seeing him talk about his experiences as a trans man, I’m so happy to see him where he is today. I was reading through some comments saying that Elliot’s description of what it is to be a man is “not true” or “wrong”…I think we have to remember that not every person’s experience is right or wrong regarding their gender and keeping our minds open to listening to different peoples experiences is so important; and letting that be an open conversation without getting defensive about it is just as crucial. Again, thank you Elliot for opening yourself up in this interview ❤ and thank you Jay for this interview ❤️
I'm just learning English by listen your podcast, really i can understand your accents, i wish you all the best you and All people around the world more happiness for all, support you from morroco 🇲🇦
Profoundly life changing human being; Elliot Page, thank you for your transparency. Thank you for your humanity and humility. I have followed you early in your career and not only was inspired by the humanity you poured into each role, but also inspired by the who I saw underneath the role. The human I saw that your brought into each role. This conversation leads us deeper into the human condition which can feel so singular until these moments. Jay, you are captivating. You truly do make everyone feel seen, valued and heard. Thank you both. Eternally grateful.
We all come from the same divine light. Elliot is such a beautiful person. Hell, I had a crush on Eliot when I was younger because you could always just see the amazing spirit that this person has, even on the big screen. As far as how I feel about Elliot Page, nothing has changed. 😂😂❤❤
I can’t imagine being in the body of a man knowing I’m a woman. I’d want to die. Let alone being a public figure where everyone thinks it’s ok to spread hate from the safety of their keyboard (I’m shocked at a lot of the comments on this video; not because of what’s being said, but because it’s on Jay’s site. I expected better from this community). I support you and I know I’m not alone and thank you for using your platform to educate. It’s got to be incredibly rough being one of the first but you are leading the way for future generations and empowering people currently struggling with similar issues.
Just checked out Jay Shetty’s book “Think Like A Monk” from the library. I’ve watched so much of this podcast I can read it in his voice. Excited for this episode!! If you’re reading this I hope you have a great day.
would you recommend it from what youve read? what types of things would it help with? im looking for emotional regulation and self love (specifically things that can help with low self esteem thats not in blogs/internet that dont help me)
Think Link a Monk was wonderful! It pulls a lot of the greatest advice and info from all the ages and across the world all in one book! It’s a quick read too. I’m glad i read it and looking forward to reading 8 rules of love too!!
I recently checked out Jay Shetty’s book “8 Rules Of Love” from the nearest bookstore! I’ve had the opportunity of this podcast on self love! A brilliant episode! If you’re reading this hopeful Jay keeps the consistency going well! 😊🎉❤
@@ch3nggYes, I would highly recommend it! It has great insights and wisdom. I am not very far along, but it is helping me forgive myself for mistakes. I would suggest treating it like a work book and doing the activities to the best of your ability, the work is where the healing takes place. For the emotional regulation and self-love I would say becoming aware of the concepts in the book will help with low self esteem. :)
I love this podcast. Mr. Jay it's really inspiring, perspective changing podcast. My conclusion is that parents in the first place have to give undivided, non judgmental and unconditional acceptance to kids that express themselves differently. This will help them to grow and excell. And this is also applicable to all the children. Home lays the foundation stone for every child to grow and open up to the world they are put in. Love this podcast.😊😊
Actually, no, parents absolutely should be judgmental since they are the PARENTS and know better than the child (or at least SHOULD know) what is good behavior and what is deviant behavior. This crap about letting kids do whatever they want is totally ridiculous and why so many kids wind up miserable like Ellen Page or turn into criminals.
Your openness and courage in sharing your journey is truly inspiring. Navigating identity and self-discovery, especially in public, takes immense courage. Your resilience and authenticity shine, fostering understanding and empathy. Thank you for sharing your story and being a beacon of strength. You're valued, supported, and deserving of love and acceptance. Keep shining your light you're making a difference. 🌟💖
This was an amazing episode, Jay! I hope you'll interview Kris Tyson someday. Or any trans person who wants to open up about their experience for that matter. These kinds of episodes help a lot of trans folks feel less alone and get the courage to take some important steps to becoming more authentic to themselves. But also, they help cis people learn more about trans people, which will hopefully enable them to have more empathy and understanding for this community.
Such a beautiful, open, raw and honest conversation. It was both educational and inspiring So deeply grateful to Elliott, for sharing so openly his story, thoughts and feelings and to Jay for his endless kindness and emphaty Wishing you two much love and a bright future ahead
this made me truly emotional. i’ve been a fan of elliot for a while and seeing him finally come into who he is and speak so confidently about it is so comforting. you guys both did amazing great work
Courageous, inspiring, authentic...perfection. Elliot Page, never ever forget Kate Winslet's words of advice. YOU ARE STELLAR, KEEP BEING YOU. Thank you Jay for this soulful and inspiring podcast. The world needs many more people like you and Elliot in the world.
Really? How many young girls has she programmed to do exactly the same thing and not have children in later life. Jordan peterson, a highly qualified psychologist was spot on with her.
For me I deeply think it's a gift to be a type of person that understands life to the extent that you understands people, and accept them for who they are or hunger to be. Most especially people that just wanna live their life's in a certain way that doesn't bring harm to anyone. And I get it if anyone is the type that finds it hard to accept people, maybe cause of their beliefs, it's okay too, I understand and I accept you to live your life enjoyably, just don't bash innocent people that wanna live their life's in a way that's different from your beliefs. Hi Elliot, I wish you well and I hope you continue to be of goodness to yourself and your world😘❤
Why?She never looks happy! She should have gotten help for depression! Once these people do this transformation there is never going back .They cross the Rubicon!
"Elliot's story sheds light on the importance of not letting societal conditioning dictate who we are" Ohhh the irony...... letting go of self-hate mean that you don't require transition to love yourself. Not the other way around.......
🤗💗🦋 Watching this person over the years as a female and as a male it is the same being. The costume may have changed but the Being is beyond all the physical changes and stable forever. A precious being of Pure Love.🤗💗🦋 ENJOY YOUR LIFE!
It's so weird hearing him talking about euphoria and how she was feeling before. I had alopecia universalis (all the hair of your entire body falls out) since I was 21 and now that I'm almost 40 got it back with treatment. I felt like went thru really similar emotions and struggles. I struggled so much leaving the house, allways having social anxiety and now I just can feel other things than that... really cool podcast :)
You clearly don’t understand the difference between going through this journey because it’s what you feel like and doing it when you are young and just because it’s cool and later regret having mutilated your body.. let’s not forget that this is a very, very rare occurrence.
@@Gaitini I understand you and I have similar concerns. But on the other side I also understand Elliots perspective. I think its an important discussion we need to have in society.
Sad to see the dislike ratio of 3102 likes and 3155 dislikes. People just dislike, because they are clearly hating these people so much for reasons, I still don’t understand. Just let people live their life’s how they want to as long it doesn’t harm other people. Especially if science has proven they actually exists, they have no right to doubt it. It’s cruel that so many people stand up against them with no actual arguments.
"Just let people live their life’s how they want to as long it doesn’t harm other people. " Sure. If it's adults then it's really a non-issue but once Ellen started talking about how safe it is for kids that's just totally untrue. She doesn't know what she's talking about. Even for adults going on hormones can bring lifelong health consequences but Ellen's not going to talk about that publicly is she.
Absolutely loved this episode! So helpful to have trans people share their lived experience and address the copious amounts of misinformation and disinformation currently circulating regarding health care for trans youth. Thank you Jay and Elliot, much love 💖🫶🏳️⚧️
I have no idea how Jay finds the time to read all of his guests books in addition to everything else he does,it's amazing!! Such a good and truthful interview!!
The part where Elliot talks about man behaviour is totally not true.. there are all types of man and not everyone is aggressive and an piece of s**** most man are good friendly people and, yes we do hug and do it with true feelings unlike some other people that just do it to look good..
Not a name of a decent male was given actually male as we know are human with good and bad behaviors nevertheless the behaviors towards the female gender to mask their brotherhood activities that male don't discuss to help themselves out, has caused the bad of male to be so pronounced that the bad overshadows the good.
Thank you for having Elliot on the podcast, have always been a huge fan of him. I'm so proud to see his journey, it's really special to be able to know more about them and their journey in such an intimate way. I will be reading the book :)
No matter which side of the issue you lean toward- It’s impossible to ignore that, of literally all the interviews in the Jay Shetty channel this interviewee scores literally dead last when you rank by “time smiling / time in frame” Which is very sad and very revealing. Some “solution”😢
I really appreciate Elliot sharing his story. My brother came out to our family at 16 that he was gay. He was being severely harassed at school. And they basically wouldn’t keep him safe. So my mom pulled him out. I hope the day will come when it’s accepted and not such a big deal to come out of the closet. I have many loved ones in the LGBTQ+ community, some have no family because they were disowned when they came out. How can a parent/family do that? I don’t get it!! I hope books like Elliot’s will help some young people see themselves in him, and they will have the courage to be their authentic selves. 💕
This was big for me. I loved him in Juno. Being such a powerful actor. It was a huge reflection of where I am at with the rainbow community. I often pride myself in loving all communities of people, but memories of him was still in another body. It’s taking me a while to calibrate. I can’t describe the state of my heart and mind with words…wow
I would have loved to hear what Elliot thinks of the thousand regret cases suing gender reassignment clinic in Tavistock. These kids were mutilated (breasts removed, genitals etc) and made sterile, and sexually dysfunctional for their entire lives. When they woke up to realise being trans was not their problem, too late, lives ruined. Or would that be considered transphobic to discuss these kids? Regret cases usually happen approx 10 years after transition, so its a really important topic to prevent further tragedy. Also inprtant is how COMPLICATED these surgeries are and often the trans person is left with medical issues and sexual disfuction for life.
From what I know detransitioning due to regret of their choices is a really low number. Under 1℅ of trans people detransition, but it's still very important to share that info because all sides need to be well informed.
@@ActuallyAShrimp I'd be interested to know where you get the 1% number from? There are no longterm studies, and regret generally happens years after transition. Tavistock had over a thousand regret cases (took clinic to court), so just on the surface it looks way beyond 1% unfortunately
@@josephineonearth I realize where I got the 1℅ from, it was the rate of people regret it when they get the surgeries. The actual rate of detransitioners on average is 8℅ however some detransition over time extra edit: I also want to say I dont disagree that it can be negative fin some cases, but like many things there are pros and cons to make when it comes to anything medical. Therapy should be forst and foremost to make sure its one thing and not another :)
She seems more depressed after her transition.. People forget we all feel confused about life..or empty... physical change has never helped..it's one change then wanting more changes... never satisfied with one's self. Sadly... She should have worked on loving herself and just figuring out the traumas she needs to face.
Congrats for this powerful episode!! I deeply admire Elliot and this interview was full of vulnerability and authenticity! One of my favorite episodes so far! Didn't know he was a reader of Octavia E. Butler, one of my favorite quotes comes from her: "Embrace diversity or be destroyed", a message so relevant in today's culture wars.
So much to learn from life, always be ready to accept the challenges! Thank you sir these kind of podcasts are really helpful to connect the people who are in need 🔥⚡
So, reading through the LAtimes interview after she came out as trans, she said that she used to not eat to deal with her depression and anxiety. But I can't help but realize how skinny she is here. Her cheekbones stick out more than ever before. She seems to not be eating... ? If that's what she claimed to have done beforehand to cope? ;/ I did a side-by-side comparison and her face is so so much skinnier here. Reminds me of Hilary Swank in Boys Don't Cry, sucked in cheeks and all.
@@highwired7781 I thought she was already 40. Not trying to sound like an @sshole, some people just age faster and I think that was the case for her. Before her transition when she was still married to a woman she looked early-mid 40s.
"Actress Ellen Page recently admitted to self-harming herself and hearing a voice telling her she is transgender before she contacted" Whats about voices in her head?
Very good that Elliot puts he’s experience out there, because most of us never had this type of experience and its important to have a view of how challenging it must be, even if it’s not a common occurrence!
Who the hell is she to say your not mutilating children! So many of these kids who went through this hate what they did! Just because she thinks she's a man doesn't make her right! What's toxic is promoting changing your gender! In case Ellen doesn't realize woman can be toxic to!
"So many?" Since when did the data changed? It's still under 1%. And puberty blockers are 100% reversible. As soon as you stop taking them, you are experience a delayed property.
You cannot make any point that anyone will respect while misgendering and dead naming him. Racists have learned this. They dog whistle instead of using the n-word. It's like saying you're a Nazi and then act surprised when people don't want to listen to your moral theory. Cuz you're a Nazi. Nazis are more subtle. Transphobes just advertise that they're bigots.m
great to listen to ppl having their pwn joyrney that brings harm to nobody. and it will be greater if we dont force other ppl to "like it or not".. not everybody is supposed to be anti- or pro- to anything.. Life has already been filled with struggles and challenges.. on all aspects, on all levels..
I dunno… He just looks miserable 95% of the time. He never looks happy or like he made the right choice. There’s a lot more wrong than gender dysphoria here.
@@MavethTheReaper Go look up the clip where dude says, “I’m so much happier nowadays, I can’t contain it. I’m finally who I wanna be.” He says it with the most emotionless expression I’ve ever seen. He looks miserable.
@chosentonessournotes like even now you guys are nit picking every fibet on this dude's face, take into account the hate he gets daily, hell look at the comments it's littered with people either outright hating or people like you that think he must be not happy, he is grown, him transitioning was perhaps not the best for his career just based on our society, there's no upside for Elliot, yet he wants to be his true authentic self.
" 'transcendent', pardon the pun." Can definitely tell Elliott's in that writer's mind. What a beautiful energy throughout this conversation. Glad to see so much peace emanating from both of them.
A profound one on one interview! The minute I saw you in xmen... i know youd be one of the best there is in entertainment industry! Or in any field you might land on... And Juno.. oh my..great great acting. Hurray to you!♡♡♡
I Feel Sorry, For This Woman. Being So away from Reality She is a Woman from Birth till she dies. I feel sorry for her being so confused. From who she is must be painful. And that Broken Voice pretending to be a Man Its Just Sad. I Hope she comes Back to her sense and Accept what God Make Her a Beautifull Woman
It can take multiple years on HRT for the tissue of the larynx and vocal cords, and all the musculature that supports it, to mature. Particularly when transitioning later into adult, i.e. after first puberty in teens. It's simply harder for your body to recover from changes as you get older, same as recovering from injury or surgery from sports or work as you get older.
Good interview! I think everyone should and be allowed to live the way they want to live and get healthcare etc. I just fear for some younger people who might go this way out of outer influence or as an escape and later regret it. I hope it gets definitely taken care of that people think about this decision. I am gonna read his book for sure!
Sadly it is a possibility that detransition happens in some cases, but gladly only 1℅ or less of people who get gender affirming care end up detransitioning. Based on some articles Ive read I'm pretty sure the maon cause of detransitioning isn't even the regret, it's the backlash from those around them :(
The mannerisms, the sitting hunched over, the shrug ---are all very feminine. You can't teach that --it's inherent. Then you look at Jay. His back is rigid and strong, no feminine shrugs - these are the little things that people just don't get. PLEASE. Stay in therapy. Find your peace. Don't let the darkness get you Eliot. You have a LONG way to go.

To be very honest imo, contrary to what he is trying to express, he looks very tired and depressed after transitioning.
Its depressing when everyone is constantly harassing you and discriminating against you mate. Transitioning completely cured my dysphoria but I cant escape transphobia now
I'd trust he knows better about his lived experience from day to day than outsiders do.

I was reading through some comments saying that Elliot’s description of what it is to be a man is “not true” or “wrong”…I think we have to remember that not every person’s experience is right or wrong regarding their gender and keeping our minds open to listening to different peoples experiences is so important; and letting that be an open conversation without getting defensive about it is just as crucial. Again, thank you Elliot for opening yourself up in this interview ❤ and thank you Jay for this interview ❤️
I'm just learning English by listen your podcast, really i can understand your accents, i wish you all the best you and All people around the world more happiness for all, support you from morroco 🇲🇦
I'm literally doing the exact same thing from the other side of the world (Uruguay, South America), and it's amazing!
😂❤Me too! I use the podcasts to learn English ❤
Profoundly life changing human being; Elliot Page, thank you for your transparency. Thank you for your humanity and humility. I have followed you early in your career and not only was inspired by the humanity you poured into each role, but also inspired by the who I saw underneath the role. The human I saw that your brought into each role. This conversation leads us deeper into the human condition which can feel so singular until these moments. Jay, you are captivating. You truly do make everyone feel seen, valued and heard. Thank you both. Eternally grateful.
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
I can't watch a bipolar, highly narcissistic, depressive person tell their story. Sorry
Then why fucking comment?
I can't read a comment of a self centered entitled wanna be psychiatrist who thinks she knows it all.
How is he narcissistic?
Jay, thank you for having Elliot on your podcast to share his story as well as your kindness and support for the LGBTQ community.
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
We all come from the same divine light. Elliot is such a beautiful person. Hell, I had a crush on Eliot when I was younger because you could always just see the amazing spirit that this person has, even on the big screen.
As far as how I feel about Elliot Page, nothing has changed. 😂😂❤❤
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
I can’t imagine being in the body of a man knowing I’m a woman. I’d want to die. Let alone being a public figure where everyone thinks it’s ok to spread hate from the safety of their keyboard (I’m shocked at a lot of the comments on this video; not because of what’s being said, but because it’s on Jay’s site. I expected better from this community). I support you and I know I’m not alone and thank you for using your platform to educate. It’s got to be incredibly rough being one of the first but you are leading the way for future generations and empowering people currently struggling with similar issues.

Just checked out Jay Shetty’s book “Think Like A Monk” from the library. I’ve watched so much of this podcast I can read it in his voice. Excited for this episode!! If you’re reading this I hope you have a great day.
would you recommend it from what youve read? what types of things would it help with? im looking for emotional regulation and self love (specifically things that can help with low self esteem thats not in blogs/internet that dont help me)
Think Link a Monk was wonderful! It pulls a lot of the greatest advice and info from all the ages and across the world all in one book! It’s a quick read too. I’m glad i read it and looking forward to reading 8 rules of love too!!
I recently checked out Jay Shetty’s book “8 Rules Of Love” from the nearest bookstore! I’ve had the opportunity of this podcast on self love! A brilliant episode! If you’re reading this hopeful Jay keeps the consistency going well! 😊🎉❤
@@ch3nggYes, I would highly recommend it! It has great insights and wisdom. I am not very far along, but it is helping me forgive myself for mistakes. I would suggest treating it like a work book and doing the activities to the best of your ability, the work is where the healing takes place. For the emotional regulation and self-love I would say becoming aware of the concepts in the book will help with low self esteem. :)
@@nathanleung5592yay!! This really is a great episode on self-love.
I love this podcast. Mr. Jay it's really inspiring, perspective changing podcast. My conclusion is that parents in the first place have to give undivided, non judgmental and unconditional acceptance to kids that express themselves differently. This will help them to grow and excell. And this is also applicable to all the children. Home lays the foundation stone for every child to grow and open up to the world they are put in. Love this podcast.😊😊
Actually, no, parents absolutely should be judgmental since they are the PARENTS and know better than the child (or at least SHOULD know) what is good behavior and what is deviant behavior. This crap about letting kids do whatever they want is totally ridiculous and why so many kids wind up miserable like Ellen Page or turn into criminals.
Let the kids be kids please. Kids dont need any sexual identity or risky surgery
Clearly you didn't actually listen to the interview 🤦
I wish him great joy and happiness in his journey.

@@barrygoldwater2441 When I saw her I knew that she is a girl 😭🥲 Very very clear even the way eyes move
Your openness and courage in sharing your journey is truly inspiring. Navigating identity and self-discovery, especially in public, takes immense courage. Your resilience and authenticity shine, fostering understanding and empathy.
Thank you for sharing your story and being a beacon of strength. You're valued, supported, and deserving of love and acceptance.
Keep shining your light you're making a difference. 🌟💖
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
No way. Is this real ?
This was an amazing episode, Jay! I hope you'll interview Kris Tyson someday. Or any trans person who wants to open up about their experience for that matter. These kinds of episodes help a lot of trans folks feel less alone and get the courage to take some important steps to becoming more authentic to themselves. But also, they help cis people learn more about trans people, which will hopefully enable them to have more empathy and understanding for this community.
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
Such a beautiful, open, raw and honest conversation. It was both educational and inspiring
So deeply grateful to Elliott, for sharing so openly his story, thoughts and feelings and to Jay for his endless kindness and emphaty
Wishing you two much love and a bright future ahead
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
She’s unwell clearly
Loved Umbrella Academy and Juno. It was amazing to see that Elliot was able to transition in his role in Umbrella Academy 🙏🏽💜
💯
this made me truly emotional. i’ve been a fan of elliot for a while and seeing him finally come into who he is and speak so confidently about it is so comforting. you guys both did amazing great work
Glad you enjoyed!
He always repeats the same thing and it's very general and on the surface. He never actually opens up.
Poor girl. She's broken
Courageous, inspiring, authentic...perfection. Elliot Page, never ever forget Kate Winslet's words of advice. YOU ARE STELLAR, KEEP BEING YOU. Thank you Jay for this soulful and inspiring podcast. The world needs many more people like you and Elliot in the world.
nothing courageous about it she has clear mental health issues.
Really? How many young girls has she programmed to do exactly the same thing and not have children in later life. Jordan peterson, a highly qualified psychologist was spot on with her.
For me I deeply think it's a gift to be a type of person that understands life to the extent that you understands people, and accept them for who they are or hunger to be.
Most especially people that just wanna live their life's in a certain way that doesn't bring harm to anyone.
And I get it if anyone is the type that finds it hard to accept people, maybe cause of their beliefs, it's okay too,
I understand and I accept you to live your life enjoyably, just don't bash innocent people that wanna live their life's in a way that's different from your beliefs.
Hi Elliot, I wish you well and I hope you continue to be of goodness to yourself and your world😘❤
Such beautiful words you've written!
@@MarthaMyDear6 thanks for your comment. That's all have got for you❤ no proving anything to you just thanks.
Her name is Ellen. She’s literally a woman pretending to be a man.
This was one of the best, Jay. I truly admire Elliot's courage and vulnerability. Thank for you sharing your struggle and humanity. Peace.
Agreed!
Hello, I'm struggling on my transition to becoming a full blown narcissist. Can you help me?
Nope you’ve made it by putting a comment for people like me to comment 😂
Why?She never looks happy! She should have gotten help for depression! Once these people do this transformation there is never going back .They cross the Rubicon!
He was in therapy. The treatment for gender dysphoria is transitioning. The reason he is still sad is because of transphobic people
I have always known that Ellen was supposed to be an "Elliott". The vibe was always there. Good for him for seeking his truth.
is that so
Hahah there will always be people like this
I always knew she was gay but when he transitioned it made total sense
"Elliot's story sheds light on the importance of not letting societal conditioning dictate who we are" Ohhh the irony...... letting go of self-hate mean that you don't require transition to love yourself. Not the other way around.......
🤗💗🦋 Watching this person over the years as a female and as a male it is the same being. The costume may have changed but the Being is beyond all the physical changes and stable forever. A precious being of Pure Love.🤗💗🦋 ENJOY YOUR LIFE!
It's so weird hearing him talking about euphoria and how she was feeling before. I had alopecia universalis (all the hair of your entire body falls out) since I was 21 and now that I'm almost 40 got it back with treatment. I felt like went thru really similar emotions and struggles. I struggled so much leaving the house, allways having social anxiety and now I just can feel other things than that... really cool podcast :)
What a great interview, God bless Elliot and thank you Jay for all you do.❤
Thank you!
Jordan Peterson won't be happy about that! 😅
Love you both Jay and Jordan ❤
Elliot, I wish the best to you! 🙏
You clearly don’t understand the difference between going through this journey because it’s what you feel like and doing it when you are young and just because it’s cool and later regret having mutilated your body.. let’s not forget that this is a very, very rare occurrence.
@@Gaitini I understand you and I have similar concerns.
But on the other side I also understand Elliots perspective.
I think its an important discussion we need to have in society.
If Elliot thought life was hard.. Welcome to being a man.. Good luck
Sad to see the dislike ratio of 3102 likes and 3155 dislikes. People just dislike, because they are clearly hating these people so much for reasons, I still don’t understand.
Just let people live their life’s how they want to as long it doesn’t harm other people. Especially if science has proven they actually exists, they have no right to doubt it. It’s cruel that so many people stand up against them with no actual arguments.
Almost forgot to hit that dislike, thanks for the reminder
"Just let people live their life’s how they want to as long it doesn’t harm other people. "
Sure. If it's adults then it's really a non-issue but once Ellen started talking about how safe it is for kids that's just totally untrue. She doesn't know what she's talking about. Even for adults going on hormones can bring lifelong health consequences but Ellen's not going to talk about that publicly is she.

It's truly sad and heartbreaking
Absolutely loved this episode! So helpful to have trans people share their lived experience and address the copious amounts of misinformation and disinformation currently circulating regarding health care for trans youth. Thank you Jay and Elliot, much love 💖🫶🏳️⚧️
Glad you enjoyed the episode!
And yet people like you will claim they are marginalized and have a genocidal war waged against them. Absolutely ridiculous.
This is somewhere between a horror show and a clown show.
What roles has he gotten as Elliot Page though?
None !
Really appreciate Elliot and Jay for creating a safe space for this conversation ❤
I have no idea how Jay finds the time to read all of his guests books in addition to everything else he does,it's amazing!! Such a good and truthful interview!!
The part where Elliot talks about man behaviour is totally not true.. there are all types of man and not everyone is aggressive and an piece of s**** most man are good friendly people and, yes we do hug and do it with true feelings unlike some other people that just do it to look good..
Not a name of a decent male was given
actually male as we know are human with good and bad behaviors
nevertheless the behaviors towards the female gender
to mask their brotherhood activities that male don't discuss to help themselves out,
has caused the bad of male to be so pronounced that the bad overshadows the good.
Thank you for having Elliot on the podcast, have always been a huge fan of him. I'm so proud to see his journey, it's really special to be able to know more about them and their journey in such an intimate way. I will be reading the book :)
No matter which side of the issue you lean toward-
It’s impossible to ignore that, of literally all the interviews in the Jay Shetty channel
this interviewee scores literally dead last when you rank by “time smiling / time in frame”
Which is very sad and very revealing.
Some “solution”😢
It's a hard topic they are talking about
Not a “he” never will be
Elliot is truly a beautiful person. I really enjoyed this interview. Lots of love
I really appreciate Elliot sharing his story. My brother came out to our family at 16 that he was gay. He was being severely harassed at school. And they basically wouldn’t keep him safe. So my mom pulled him out. I hope the day will come when it’s accepted and not such a big deal to come out of the closet. I have many loved ones in the LGBTQ+ community, some have no family because they were disowned when they came out. How can a parent/family do that? I don’t get it!! I hope books like Elliot’s will help some young people see themselves in him, and they will have the courage to be their authentic selves. 💕
I hope her gets the first or even only Britney interview! He just creates a safe space and she needs that.
This was big for me. I loved him in Juno. Being such a powerful actor. It was a huge reflection of where I am at with the rainbow community. I often pride myself in loving all communities of people, but memories of him was still in another body. It’s taking me a while to calibrate. I can’t describe the state of my heart and mind with words…wow
Holy god, get a LIFE!
You loved HER in Juno. Don't be such a complete a$$ kisser.
That's a woman
I find it odd that they allowed a man to play a woman in Juno. They should have found an actress instead.
You loved *her* in juno
It was Ellen in junk not Elliott
World has gone mad 😂
I would have loved to hear what Elliot thinks of the thousand regret cases suing gender reassignment clinic in Tavistock. These kids were mutilated (breasts removed, genitals etc) and made sterile, and sexually dysfunctional for their entire lives. When they woke up to realise being trans was not their problem, too late, lives ruined. Or would that be considered transphobic to discuss these kids? Regret cases usually happen approx 10 years after transition, so its a really important topic to prevent further tragedy. Also inprtant is how COMPLICATED these surgeries are and often the trans person is left with medical issues and sexual disfuction for life.
No one has the balls to confront the truth
From what I know detransitioning due to regret of their choices is a really low number. Under 1℅ of trans people detransition, but it's still very important to share that info because all sides need to be well informed.
@@ActuallyAShrimp I'd be interested to know where you get the 1% number from? There are no longterm studies, and regret generally happens years after transition. Tavistock had over a thousand regret cases (took clinic to court), so just on the surface it looks way beyond 1% unfortunately
@@josephineonearth id stand corrected, I have bad info im gonna go re look into this stuff
@@josephineonearth I realize where I got the 1℅ from, it was the rate of people regret it when they get the surgeries. The actual rate of detransitioners on average is 8℅ however some detransition over time extra edit: I also want to say I dont disagree that it can be negative fin some cases, but like many things there are pros and cons to make when it comes to anything medical. Therapy should be forst and foremost to make sure its one thing and not another :)
The amount of people that dislike this when Elliot is being himself. just shows the amount of hate that still exist
She seems more depressed after her transition..
People forget we all feel confused about life..or empty...
physical change has never helped..it's one change then wanting more changes... never satisfied with one's self.
Sadly...
She should have worked on loving herself and just figuring out the traumas she needs to face.
Congrats for this powerful episode!! I deeply admire Elliot and this interview was full of vulnerability and authenticity! One of my favorite episodes so far! Didn't know he was a reader of Octavia E. Butler, one of my favorite quotes comes from her: "Embrace diversity or be destroyed", a message so relevant in today's culture wars.
This girl. She’s just nuts
The interview is superficial, he didn’t dive deep into her own experiences..
I listened for 10 minutes. This just wasn't for me.
Existentially affirming = air. The alienation can be life crippling, paralyzing, or indeed suffocating. Thank you for the conversation, both of you!
I appreciate that he said he'd rather be himself than act. Really speaks to how important authenticity is.
This might be the saddest "happy" person on earth.
Another wonderful interview. I have ordered Page Boy.
Glad you enjoyed!
So much to learn from life, always be ready to accept the challenges!
Thank you sir these kind of podcasts are really helpful to connect the people who are in need 🔥⚡
So, reading through the LAtimes interview after she came out as trans, she said that she used to not eat to deal with her depression and anxiety. But I can't help but realize how skinny she is here. Her cheekbones stick out more than ever before. She seems to not be eating... ? If that's what she claimed to have done beforehand to cope? ;/ I did a side-by-side comparison and her face is so so much skinnier here. Reminds me of Hilary Swank in Boys Don't Cry, sucked in cheeks and all.
He. He's a man.
@@oregano1246She’s not a man and never will be. She more closely resembles a 15 year old boy which is creepy given she’s almost 40 😂
@@highwired7781 I thought she was already 40. Not trying to sound like an @sshole, some people just age faster and I think that was the case for her. Before her transition when she was still married to a woman she looked early-mid 40s.
Watching from #India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
"Actress Ellen Page recently admitted to self-harming herself and hearing a voice telling her she is transgender before she contacted"
Whats about voices in her head?
Awesome interview. Elliot is so eloquent. Like you, this interview has enlightened and changed me. Thank you both. Love you both.
Very good that Elliot puts he’s experience out there, because most of us never had this type of experience and its important to have a view of how challenging it must be, even if it’s not a common occurrence!
Thank You both for this powerful conversation. ❣️💖🙏
Who the hell is she to say your not mutilating children! So many of these kids who went through this hate what they did! Just because she thinks she's a man doesn't make her right! What's toxic is promoting changing your gender! In case Ellen doesn't realize woman can be toxic to!
*he
You spelt Elliot wrong
"So many?" Since when did the data changed? It's still under 1%. And puberty blockers are 100% reversible. As soon as you stop taking them, you are experience a delayed property.
You cannot make any point that anyone will respect while misgendering and dead naming him. Racists have learned this. They dog whistle instead of using the n-word. It's like saying you're a Nazi and then act surprised when people don't want to listen to your moral theory. Cuz you're a Nazi. Nazis are more subtle. Transphobes just advertise that they're bigots.m
Woyld be nice to see Laughter and smiles 🎉
great to listen to ppl having their pwn joyrney that brings harm to nobody. and it will be greater if we dont force other ppl to "like it or not".. not everybody is supposed to be anti- or pro- to anything.. Life has already been filled with struggles and challenges.. on all aspects, on all levels..
Personally if you look at their eye's they still have a profound sadness. More so prior to the 'transition'.
I dunno… He just looks miserable 95% of the time. He never looks happy or like he made the right choice. There’s a lot more wrong than gender dysphoria here.
And if he was smiling you would say something else, stfu, his smiling does not dictate his happiness, you have no idea what you are talking about
@@lrsb1678 He looks fine to me
@@MavethTheReaper
Go look up the clip where dude says, “I’m so much happier nowadays, I can’t contain it. I’m finally who I wanna be.” He says it with the most emotionless expression I’ve ever seen. He looks miserable.
@chosentonessournotes Did you ever think because people who are trying to be their authentic selves are exhausted for having to fight and pretend
@chosentonessournotes like even now you guys are nit picking every fibet on this dude's face, take into account the hate he gets daily, hell look at the comments it's littered with people either outright hating or people like you that think he must be not happy, he is grown, him transitioning was perhaps not the best for his career just based on our society, there's no upside for Elliot, yet he wants to be his true authentic self.
" 'transcendent', pardon the pun." Can definitely tell Elliott's in that writer's mind. What a beautiful energy throughout this conversation. Glad to see so much peace emanating from both of them.
I would love to see a podcast with Wynton Marsalis or Jon Batiste
A law that everyone should have to follow is accept everyone as they are. 😊😊😊
Loved him as an actress. Very unique and talented girl. He never looked awkward to me as a girl. ❤
It’s called acting 🤷🏼♀️who knows
A profound one on one interview!
The minute I saw you in xmen... i know youd be one of the best there is in entertainment industry! Or in any field you might land on...

We need to promote this change to schools and university in the US, she looks so happy and content
😂
So stunning and brave.
I Feel Sorry, For This Woman. Being So away from Reality She is a Woman from Birth till she dies. I feel sorry for her being so confused. From who she is must be painful. And that Broken Voice pretending to be a Man Its Just Sad. I Hope she comes Back to her sense and Accept what God Make Her a Beautifull Woman
Why is the voice so squeaky?
It was squaky even before transitioning.
It can take multiple years on HRT for the tissue of the larynx and vocal cords, and all the musculature that supports it, to mature. Particularly when transitioning later into adult, i.e. after first puberty in teens. It's simply harder for your body to recover from changes as you get older, same as recovering from injury or surgery from sports or work as you get older.
Thank you for bringing a voice to this experience and sharing with those watching. I am so grateful.
Thank you Jay for bringing him on and the support you show.
Good interview! I think everyone should and be allowed to live the way they want to live and get healthcare etc. I just fear for some younger people who might go this way out of outer influence or as an escape and later regret it. I hope it gets definitely taken care of that people think about this decision.
I am gonna read his book for sure!
Sadly it is a possibility that detransition happens in some cases, but gladly only 1℅ or less of people who get gender affirming care end up detransitioning. Based on some articles Ive read I'm pretty sure the maon cause of detransitioning isn't even the regret, it's the backlash from those around them :(
The mannerisms, the sitting hunched over, the shrug ---are all very feminine. You can't teach that --it's inherent. Then you look at Jay. His back is rigid and strong, no feminine shrugs - these are the little things that people just don't get. PLEASE. Stay in therapy. Find your peace. Don't let the darkness get you Eliot. You have a LONG way to go.
