Kudos and brava to Jonathan for being such an amazing buffer between those two wonderful ladies! That difficult mother-daughter conversation would not go as smoothly without him!
Jonathan really rescued this interview for Mayim. Bev had so many things to say, and they were more effectively filtered through Jonathan... just because of the mother-daughter dynamic.
This one broke Mayim down! Her mother didn’t have to say much to get a completely wild reaction from Mayim. Uncomfortable laughing, head down, nervousness, slightly dismissive, a little embarrassed and then pulling herself together to acknowledge her mother’s insights. Very interesting, that mother daughter thing that exists. I loved this interview!
I grew up in an abusive home. Sexually abused by a step father whome I adored until the abuse started. And a mother who is narcissistic, emotional & physically abusive. It was a mess. I'm FINALLY able to freely talk & share about it. I still have a long way to go but at 53 I have forgiven & moved away from the anger.
You are very blessed to have a mother willing and able to have such an open and honest conversation with you. The fact that you both work so hard to have such a positive relationship (whether you always succeed or not), is a real testament to the strength of your love for one another.
I love that Jonathan got to talk more and let Mayim’s mother express in a different perspective..I know how difficult it’s to have an easy conversation with your own mother
Your mum is so cool so interesting , I should not be surprised as you may I’m are very very brilliant and interesting I dint know much about you till I started to watch your pod casts , I must about I thought with you being a child star maybe for mum was a JAP I kind of stage mum a bit like Natalie woods mum , I was so completely wrong ,Beverly is amazing !
My mother passed away when I was 7 years old, throughout my childhood I would secretly adopt in my mind the mothers of my girlfriends. I watch this lovely, meaningful banter between the two of you & think of what could have been. 😌. I jumped ahead to this interview as I’m doing catch up because of school Mayim, this episode was so worth coming out of my methodical habits, & I’m more than OK with it 🤪. Thank you Bev 🥰
I'm noticing how your mom preemptively acknowledges your "judgment" before anything has even been said and tries to explain herself, and that is something that I have struggled with. One day someone pointed it out to me and said that it has more to do with me judging myself and assuming everyone else is doing the same. That was so helpful and I've grown from that knowledge. ❤
Jonathon, some of us hate being sociable. I have just had the most relaxed year of my life. I haven’t had to make excuses for why I don’t want to go to parties . It’s been lovely.
Agree! Personally, being around other Humans can be exhausting. I used to come home from work just to detox from Humanity and get my sanity and calm back. Working from home has allowed me to enjoy an environment that is low-key, productive, and low drama.
I get this totally. But it wasn't until I had a covid scare my self and had to completely self isolate for 14 days, I now realised how everybody else was feeling. For me going to work, the shop, a walk and meeting imadate family was plenty of social interaction, but when that was taken from me, I was distraught. It breaks my heart to think this is what most people are feeling for last year.
I loved this episode! Yes, please do another with your mother. My anxiety was ruling my life until my 50's and I am now 75. I got tired of letting everything affect me and making me feel awful. I read many books went to therapy and learned that I didn't have to live that way. I still have the anxiety, still have therapy at times, but I now have tools I didn't have. I did laugh at times, not at her struggles, but she is very fun.
I DEMAND TO HAVE A REGULAR EPISODE-REACTION FROM BEVERLY!!! It’s refreshing and fascinating to hear from a parent about these things. I’m 50 and I’m continually fascinated by the family disfunction I learn from my parents! I have zero confusion about how my psyche took a sharp left turn! 😂 I see it clearly and yet they still live in their same narrative. Once in awhile I’ll get “uh, well, maybe so.” 🤯Like hello!?
Hi, Mayim! I am not Jewish, but boy could I relate to this episode. I also called my mother by "Ma". I unfortunately lost my mother four weeks ago when she suffered a massive stroke. We had lots of struggles between us when I was growing up. I always felt misunderstood by her since childhood and as your tagline for Call Me Kat, I also felt I was disappointing my mother since I was born. Having said that, I still miss her a lot and feel lost without her now.
I totally understood what Beverly was saying and what she meant at times when Mayim jumped on one word or feeling instead of allowing her Mom to just express herself. I think, like someone else commented, that Jonathan was a great buffer in the conversation. I loved this episode. This is my first hearing Beverly talk about her childhood experiences. She is an amazing woman to so courageously go into deep therapy at her stage of life. It sounds like she is learning so much. I adore her and look forward to seeing her on more episodes. I've only recently found this podcast, and I'm really enjoying going back through the old episodes. There are great nuggets in each episode, and Mayim and Jonathan balance each other so well. Thank you, guys, for one of the best podcasts out there and helping us see ourselves and grow through the discussions and interviews with your guests.
You just keep surprising us with your guest and this is one episode we thought we didn't need. We need more Bevisodes. Is this the kind of conversations you have with her every day? I bet I'll never get bored if I talk to her. She has a lot of interesting insights, also it's fun to see Mayim's reactions to what Bev has to say 😂
anyone else fall in love with Bev! What a woman and what a survivor. This is the first episode i have seen and i love it. The answer to your question Bev about why you were so different lies in karma. We all have a soul journey and it is sometimes very different to the other siblings. I wish you all love and light and thank you so much for being brave enough to talk about all this stuff. Thank you Mayim and Jonathan too. xx
I absolutely adore Mayim's mom! The fact that she has been going to therapy and that this has improved their relationship is admirable. Going to therapy has improved my relationship with my mom and I couldn't be more grateful! I think it's the joint efforts of daughter and mother that allows this, so congrats to both! This has been one fantastic podcast! ❤️
I love the Self Reflection and Work on Self that Mayim's Mom does. Mayim said it. It's Brave Courageous Work. Hard enough for anyone, and I think it's rare for person's of her mom's generation to attempt. Brava Bev!
Right on Bev!! We have all been sent to our rooms during this pandemic to think about what we’ve done. Brava! You are a very brave woman and a great example for Mayim . You are great for one another. Mutual love and respect in ma-daughter relationship. I miss mind sooo much but hold onto all it gave me.💖💖
Jonathan needs to be a referee shirt for this episode. This episode is super important, having these conversations with our families, and friends and healing generational trauma is the only way we can stop it from damaging lives, and families.
¡Genial el episodio de tu mamá! Es muy simpática y estaba muy abierta a compartir. Por favor, que vuelva y siga dando su opinión sobre los otros episodios. 🙂🙃
I LOVE the Recap feeling of this episode and what a real honest and contextual space Bev creates with her perceptions. It gives me tons of hope that if/when someone from previous generations work on themselves that we can all have important conversations! Also HUGE shout out to Jonathan for being a great buffer/guide during the emotional moments!!
In keeping with Jonathan's motto here that "Everyone has Mental Issues until proven otherwise", I think in an upcoming episode you should interview one of your loyal & die hard #BialikBreakdown followers. I volunteer myself! 🙋🏼♀️
As a middle aged woman myself, having gone through some stuff during my years, I’m going to need another episode with your mom (& perhaps her, or another qualified therapist). To get more info on this. I’m terribly interested. Man, how brave was your mom to even consider doing this!! Good for her. ❤️
Johnathon shared SO MUCH in this episode... love this!!! Have always loved mayim since blossom & Big Bang... but gosh learning from her as her real self has been enlightening!!! BEV rocks by the way!❤️
Your mom is amazerful!!! She speaks so openly and honestly, and it’s absolutely clear how, Mayim, you turned out just as amazerful as Mah Bev. Thank you for your willingness to open up and share your lives with us!! I’m in such awe of you two!
Thank you for presenting this mother-daughter paradigm in such an entertaining way. And for giving all of us a chance to feel OK about our own families' idiosyncrasies in the process! Sending much love from the UK. These podcasts have been an absolute Godsend during the last months. They've kept me company through all of my physio rehab. And continuing to listen during my evening walks. God bless x
After keeping a daily journal throughout this pandemic, you must have read a few of my entries. This was BRILLIANT, BRAVE and very much MY Bronx upbringing. Yasher Koach all of you !
I love the relationship that you two have. I recently lost my mother and there are so many issues that I wish we had resolved before she past away. I think it’s great that you two can speak to each other about those deep subjects. Even though they could be emotionally hurtful, the way you two express your feelings to each other is so beautiful. You are both so respectful of the way each of you feel and that is awesome. Hold each other close. We never know when our final time will be so enjoy each moment you have together. Love this podcast! Thanks for sharing!
Wow this was incredible. Please bring Bev back! I love that Jonathan was a big part of the episode. Mayim and her mom reminded me of myself and my dad. We could have used a third person during discussions!
Thank you for sharing your mom with us. I bet she is THE MOST when it comes to your sons!! Wishing her continued success with her therapy as well as continued success to you in your endeavors!
Mayim, I just love your mama! And I love the relationship between you two!. Your mom is a gem to be cherished! I lost my mom 10 years ago and miss her every day. It's so delightful to listen to you two chat and value each other. I love that your mom has such a thirst for learning and a genuine curiosity!❤
I’m having a pretty insane week and these podcasts have totally made my week! Mayim you are so brave to talk about these things! Thank you so much for doing this! Also, your mom is hilarious and I can so relate!
Before my grandma passed, her and I would have many conversations about how we felt, family, etc especially since I no longer lived nearby. Something about your mom reminds me a lot of her. Thanks!
Mayim, your belly laughs to Bev’s responses made me chuckle, even when she was serious (sorry Bev). And we need Bev again to give us that teaser episode. This really was great and I am glad you decided to share your mom - and you guys’ real relationship - with us.
I hurt for her mom when Mayim skipped over her feelings of inadequacy! Even if M never said it, she might have empathized for a split second. But that's how they roll and I do love this podcast. I espcecially love seeing how mothers and daughters relate. I love my adult daughters, but they do hurt me sometimes. I guess that's normal.
I think part of the problem is we don't feel capable of hurting our parents, even as adults. I could probably be more mindful about this towards my own mother. It goes both ways though.
Mayim, I am watching this video on May 9th, Mother's Day. For me, this is the 12 Mother's day since my Mom died. One day these videos with Bev WILL BE your treasure. AND just think of your children viewing these Grandma Bev videos one day to have an inside understanding of you AND your Mother. Priceless. ❤️❤️❤️
I love this episode, I’ve seriously loved getting to see Mayim talk to her mother about how telling her story made her mother feel. Growing up my home life was not great at all, and sometimes My siblings and I will reminisce about our childhood in front of my mother and sometimes she agrees and other times she disagrees or cannot remember because of drug use. When she doesn’t remember that is the hardest part for our family because it’s like she didn’t care that it was happening. So it’s pretty interesting to get to see someone talk about their story with someone who was part of the story!
Bev had me at hello. Her candor & humor in describing painful experiences was refreshing as was her journey from breakdowns to breakthroughs. I see some of Bev in Mayim. :)
Hello from the South Bronx❤️ Miss Mayim, you will now have to do an episode with Mom several times a year in review of your prior episodes! This is great. Wonderful Podcast!!!!
My therapist and I are using Emdr to over come my childhood trauma and it is weirdly amazing. It is hard and the process is fascinating. I’ve been doing it for the past three months, I have a long way to go, but I can look back to some moments of my life without pain. It really affected the way that I see life now. Thank you for this wonderful podcast once again.
Great video. Anxiety is a big part of my life. I inherited it and unfortunately passed it on too 😢. So much of how I act and react is due to anxiety and also being an introvert.
Ya know, I wish my mother was so enlightened and so on my side as yours Mayim. I think you’re amazing but I think your mom is even more amazing and I’m so happy that you have her on your side
I agree with her take on the anxiety and cuticle picking for the purpose of dealing with anxiety. Getting manicures is a great solution, kudos to Maryam's mom
Mayim and Bev great back and forth. Bev had her nail bitting, Mayim fiddling with a mouse ball and or paper clip or rubber band. Each had/had own way of coping with "something". 👏 ❤☮
I am also normal neurotic (also 1st generation American)!!! Please bring your mom back ASAP to go over the other episodes. This need to be a regular thing. 🙏🙏🙏
I am a parent who had anxiety as a child, thinking I had none in early adulthood. At age 74 I am reading letters written to my daughter as she left home at 18 until she was about 23. ANXIETY POURS FROM THE PAGE!
This podcast is everything I need right now and this episode... I wish I could have had this kind of conversation with my mom. To openly talk about mental health issues resulting from her family's escape from Estonia, the traumas they all lived through. Please keep up the amazing work and keep these episodes coming, your breakdowns are helping my breakthroughs!
Brava, Bev! It’s utterly important and deeply valuable to work on your own trauma alongside the daughter who is inevitably influenced by each detail of who you were, and are. It requires courage, fortitude, and a profound grace of character. Many, many people are never given such an opportunity. I’m proud of, and happy for, both you and Mayim; the work you’re [both] doing is truly significant.
It made me so happy to see there was a new episode! And happier to listen to it, every one is a gem of its own special kind!! So eye-opening, informative, fun,... Appreciate it
Kudos and brava to Jonathan for being such an amazing buffer between those two wonderful ladies! That difficult mother-daughter conversation would not go as smoothly without him!
Jonathan really rescued this interview for Mayim. Bev had so many things to say, and they were more effectively filtered through Jonathan... just because of the mother-daughter dynamic.
I was just about to make the same comment! I absolutely agree. In fact, I feel this is every single Bevisode.
This one broke Mayim down! Her mother didn’t have to say much to get a completely wild reaction from Mayim.
Uncomfortable laughing, head down, nervousness, slightly dismissive, a little embarrassed and then pulling herself together to acknowledge her mother’s insights. Very interesting, that mother daughter thing that exists. I loved this interview!
You're very observant and right on.
@@PossumLover1111 😊
It made me a little embarrassed to realize I'll respond like this with my mom. I'm 60 years old and I can reclaim my inner adolescence in a flash.
@@Kakkydidit Isn’t that the truth!😊
AMEN!
I grew up in an abusive home. Sexually abused by a step father whome I adored until the abuse started. And a mother who is narcissistic, emotional & physically abusive. It was a mess. I'm FINALLY able to freely talk & share about it. I still have a long way to go but at 53 I have forgiven & moved away from the anger.
Im proud of you for getting away from that and forgiveing yourself thats the biggest step to healing
I went through a very similar scenario and feel your pain. Prayers for you
Hugs 😢sending you love and healing light ❤
Your reaction to your mom on this episode was epic. It is what every daughter feels about their own mom! Thank you for making me feel normal!!!
You are very blessed to have a mother willing and able to have such an open and honest conversation with you. The fact that you both work so hard to have such a positive relationship (whether you always succeed or not), is a real testament to the strength of your love for one another.
I love that Jonathan got to talk more and let Mayim’s mother express in a different perspective..I know how difficult it’s to have an easy conversation with your own mother
100%. He came of as the needed objective person in the conversation and even the mediator.

Yes!
FOR REALLLL
"I do have quirks... but chemically I'm stable" She is awesome!
lol. love it.
Okay....I’m just gonna say it....I LOVE BEV
Amanda- i do too! She made the show. !!!
Me too!
Ditto
Yes!!! Me too
Beverly said it, "This feels like a world meditation" thank you Mayim for sharing your Mom with us.
I love that she said it, because that is how I have felt too

Cherish your Mother, her courage to grow and the compliments she's given you. It's obvious that she cherishes you💞.
I'm noticing how your mom preemptively acknowledges your "judgment" before anything has even been said and tries to explain herself, and that is something that I have struggled with. One day someone pointed it out to me and said that it has more to do with me judging myself and assuming everyone else is doing the same. That was so helpful and I've grown from that knowledge. ❤
I love that we got to hear from Jonathan more! Thank you for having your mom on Mayim!
I listened to this episode twice already. Honestly this could be a 2 hour episode and I’m still gonna repeat it!
could not agree more!!!!
Same here!👏👍 She's so interesting and funny. I will say yes to more Bevisodes anytime!☺
Yes! I agree.
Fully agree!

"I was the one, I was holding on to old stuff... You don't even see it until you start to move away from it."
My own mother is gone less than 2 years now....wow could I ever see us. Enlightening. Thank you to all three.

Now for Jonathan’s mother !
I DEFINITELY AGREE
I worked with her at WB Children's center. She is such a sweetie! Please tell her hi, and I remember her fondly, thanks!
As a middle aged woman myself, having gone through some stuff during my years, I’m going to need another episode with your mom (& perhaps her, or another qualified therapist). To get more info on this. I’m terribly interested. Man, how brave was your mom to even consider doing this!! Good for her. ❤️
Yep, that sounded frightening but well worth it, it's so strange how trauma resides in the body not just brain.
This was amazing. I saw a lot of my relationship with my own mom reflected here and I started crying.
My kids have done EMDR. They explain being able to rewrite their reactions to memories
All the other ones too, but this episode needed Jonathan especially.
Another great conversation, why am I not surprised :)
Wow this hit me right in the feels more than any of the other episodes have so far! ♥️♥️
Johnathon shared SO MUCH in this episode... love this!!! Have always loved mayim since blossom & Big Bang... but gosh learning from her as her real self has been enlightening!!! BEV rocks by the way!❤️

Your Mom rocks! So interesting. Real. Sending her and Mayim mega hugs!!!
I live in a society where Mayim Bialik's mom grew up in. Suffocating.
Love you Mayim. Watching you from the far corner of northeast India
Love this! Ancestral healing and much more. It’s so good 😊
I LOVE your mom! I think she needs to be on once every couple months to give her point of view.
I love this episode, I’ve seriously loved getting to see Mayim talk to her mother about how telling her story made her mother feel. Growing up my home life was not great at all, and sometimes My siblings and I will reminisce about our childhood in front of my mother and sometimes she agrees and other times she disagrees or cannot remember because of drug use. When she doesn’t remember that is the hardest part for our family because it’s like she didn’t care that it was happening. So it’s pretty interesting to get to see someone talk about their story with someone who was part of the story!
I love everything about this. I'm gonna go call my mom.
Lucky you, having a mother that is so honest with herself and you...(has done a lot of her own self reflection/introspection)...
Bev had me at hello. Her candor & humor in describing painful experiences was refreshing as was her journey from breakdowns to breakthroughs. I see some of Bev in Mayim. :)
My mother was a "functioning alcoholic". Bev is a GEM!!!!!
I'm gonna adopt Bev's new philosophy: "I assume everybody has some kind of mental illness, unless they prove otherwise." GOLD !!!
Her mother is so fabulous! She’s fun and quirky, smart and honest too!
Hello from the South Bronx❤️ Miss Mayim, you will now have to do an episode with Mom several times a year in review of your prior episodes! This is great. Wonderful Podcast!!!!
Love how we hear more of Jonathan in this episode, keep it up! Love from Argentina!
My therapist and I are using Emdr to over come my childhood trauma and it is weirdly amazing. It is hard and the process is fascinating. I’ve been doing it for the past three months, I have a long way to go, but I can look back to some moments of my life without pain. It really affected the way that I see life now. Thank you for this wonderful podcast once again.
Great video. Anxiety is a big part of my life. I inherited it and unfortunately passed it on too 😢. So much of how I act and react is due to anxiety and also being an introvert.
I can say that this is 100% my favorite podcast, Mayim invite me, please!!!
Ya know, I wish my mother was so enlightened and so on my side as yours Mayim. I think you’re amazing but I think your mom is even more amazing and I’m so happy that you have her on your side
LOVE your Mom. She is amazing....
I absolutely loved this episode!!! Bev is a treasure and so is Mayim. I want more of Bev's journey!!
Thank you for discussing EMDR - I credit it with saving my life
What an amazing conversation. Bev is wonderful, so open and living in her Truth. Love this.
I could watch a Bevisode a week!!
I agree with her take on the anxiety and cuticle picking for the purpose of dealing with anxiety. Getting manicures is a great solution, kudos to Maryam's mom
I love Bev's insight and perspective. Thanks for sharing her with us ❤
Mayim, I love your mother.
Mayim and Bev great back and forth. Bev had her nail bitting, Mayim fiddling with a mouse ball and or paper clip or rubber band. Each had/had own way of coping with "something". 👏 ❤☮
I am also normal neurotic (also 1st generation American)!!! Please bring your mom back ASAP to go over the other episodes. This need to be a regular thing. 🙏🙏🙏
I am a parent who had anxiety as a child, thinking I had none in early adulthood. At age 74 I am reading letters written to my daughter as she left home at 18 until she was about 23. ANXIETY POURS FROM THE PAGE!
Absolutely loved this!! More Beverly!!! The dynamic between them is amazing
This podcast is everything I need right now and this episode... I wish I could have had this kind of conversation with my mom. To openly talk about mental health issues resulting from her family's escape from Estonia, the traumas they all lived through. Please keep up the amazing work and keep these episodes coming, your breakdowns are helping my breakthroughs!
I luv this talk . I LUV Bev. AND her and Mayims real Talk!
Please, please have more of these. I loved it! All three of you are great .
Brava, Bev! It’s utterly important and deeply valuable to work on your own trauma alongside the daughter who is inevitably influenced by each detail of who you were, and are. It requires courage, fortitude, and a profound grace of character. Many, many people are never given such an opportunity. I’m proud of, and happy for, both you and Mayim; the work you’re [both] doing is truly significant.
It made me so happy to see there was a new episode! And happier to listen to it, every one is a gem of its own special kind!! So eye-opening, informative, fun,... Appreciate it
this episode is definitely my favourite!! i love you and your mom together ❤️
Mayim’s mom reminds me of the daughter Fiddler on the Roof...truly amazing & fascinating woman!
