This was amazing, I love her so much - she is so genuine, the way she carries herself, so different from most women, one of a kind. Incredible interview
Loved this interview and podcast!!! Evy is a badass and I love it- she is such an inspiration and role model- I am 63 and strive to be more like her as I age!!!!
Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain(dune). - 1:32:40 I got my ass on a plane.
As a clinical psychologist, I am really impressed. She has an amazing self-care philosophy, and uses communication to keep her boundaries. This is extremely important not just in her career, but in life every day.
@@rhondabowlin1883 You want her to keep validating people's victimhood because that is what today's society wants. "Your emotions are valid" - so stay there and dwell on it?" This is not going to end well for a lot of people. That is why the West is getting more and more depressed, especially women, because you're cheering on each other to see who is the bigger victim. It's like a victim Olympics on social media! No people, you got hurt, you suffered and yes it hurts and you are entitled to feel bad but after that, start looking forward. Don't freaking stay there!!
Agree wholeheartedly about the value of this podcast. So much of my experience would be different if I granted more grace, as she does, to sidestep biases and assumptions. To allocate energy to a more productive mindset.
Honestly, after watching this video, i went to a job interview and when I was asked questions about resolving conflict this video popped into my head out of the blue and I used her idea of how to resolve conflict in the interview and the interviewee was really impressed and I got the job. Thanks Evy, you're a legend.
@@sweets4days716Jon Jones seemed genuine on camera as well, until Cormier called him out "off camera" while it was still rolling and we all got to see how he really is 😂
Iam an Afghan girl I wanted to study engineering which is a taboo in Afghanistan but after listening to this podcast I can confirm this to society i will 100 become one
how can you watch a video like this and not crave to bring yourself to these levels of mental capacity and discipline..? i mean...humans are incredible
YES, his name is President TRUMP!!! 🎉😅 🇺🇸 We need him desperately ASAP!!! MAGA!!! 🏆 ✌🏻 🏅 He will turn this ship around quickly & SAVE AMERICA & then the World! 🌎 The evil ones are selling the Goldrn Goose to line their own pockets! We need to go back to feeding & nourishing her so she has many eggs ie gas, oil, goods, m medicines etc to export/sell! President Trump brought back over 200 mfg JOBS to make us self-sufficient. He created Opportunity Zones for underserved communities which were training schools for carpenters, mechanics, plumbers, electricians etc for those not inclined to learn computer skills! Inflation was near 0- 1.4% at it's highest, now it's 9-30% depending on how it's manipulated. But you know that groceries & goods cost way more now! It actually costs each of us $11,000 MORE per year! He had GAS @ $1.99, now it's $5.39! The difference this time is that we all need to have his back & SUPPORT HIM! Also, get involved in your local Election Process to ensure it is SECURE THIS TIME! Push for VOTER ID!
Well, appearances in general don't have to do anything with personality...until it comes to plastic surgery. Since that's a sign for me that the person doesn't want to see their bad sides or thinks of covering them up for some gains. (that's how I perceive it) But I'm not sure if she had it, since I'm more listening to it than looking this. But there is a thing that I don't get from daphnefaetv's comment. Why do you perceive her as selfless, if she said don't let other people's (shit) chaos invade your personal space and distance yourselves from them. (Even though it was said, it's only partial) Since that wouldn't be my interpretation of selfless.
Let me excerpt this from her speech: "your body is your temple; you have to take care of what houses your soul and your mind," this is so deep and something the majority of people underestimate including myself.
The Bible says this and many other things full of wisdom. Even people who aren't religious can still learn a lot from it. You should consider reading it eventually 😊
From the The New Testament in the Bible. 1 Corinthians 6:19 Know ye not, that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye have of God? and ye are not your own. 20 For ye are bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit: for they are God’s.
Loved this interview so much! The way she talks - so clear, no extra "uh, um,mm..." nothing. It's so interesting, smooth and super informative to listen. First time in my life I've been so concentrated when watching interview like this, not even wanting to pause the video. Thank you for this interview!!!
I love how accountable she is. She isn't blaming other people, she isn't moping about events she can't change. Focusing on what "I can do" is a really beautiful lesson
Well yes, but she has a strong family structure and community. Her summers in Greece and feeling obligated to marry within her culture is a strong indication. Not everyone has those, especially several generations into the US. A certain narcissism sets in with success that can affect the mental health of your children, especially with this whole perfectionist mindset. Raising kids is an imperfect process. I'd love to see her interviewed in 20 years and see if she's changed at all.
There are two places to find the answers you have in your life. You can look inside or you can look outside. The people who look outside dream. Those who look inside are awakened.
And she still seems to have empathy. In other words, she doesn't have to trash talk people to bring herself up. She is just using examples of those with a victim mindset to show it isn't productive. Some people have maybe had to much trauma that is almost physically impossible for their brain and body to leave behind, like an addiction. This is why she says people have to want to leave their trauma and what keeps them trapped in their identity. It's the same for addiction, the only way someone can get over that is if they truly want to, and then find the resources to do it. The mindset of truly wanting to, vs not, is the key difference. It's true that some people are more equipped to do this and therefore more fortunate in that regard, though.
@@bluemonday70-bl5ne she's pretty critical of people who suffer from depression, as if it's a waste of time. It's a very old world point of view. It's practical though and she'd make an incredible life coach.
@@pippa3150a little girl is exactly what we need?! What are you even saying?!you responded with emotion as a reaction to his action,that just make you look emotional,like a little boy!
Evy has her mind on the right track. She knows herself and knows what she wants to do. An incredible person. Not caring about what others think of her and keeps it realistic. Inspirational!
She definitely cares what other people think of her. That is a big part of her training and how she is able to do her job and her life. This entire I service was about how to get respect without demanding it. Respect is earned by caring what people think of what you say, how you say it, what you do and how you do it.
" If you are not comfortable dropping your kid in the middle of Times Square to talk to whoever, then you get that thing(cell phone) out of her hands". So true!!👍
She strikes me as a good example of the idea that you only really find true freedom through self discipline. Not by following your every whim and want. Fascinating lady.
This is by far THE BEST guest you’ve hosted!!! I cannot even begin to describe the wealth of knowledge and inspiration I’ve gained from listening to this interview! I’m totally obsessed with this incredible badass woman’s way of thinking! Her attitude and outlook on life is absolutely INCREDIBLE! She is SO WISE and insightful! I have literally evolved IMMENSELY by merely consuming this invaluable piece of content! Thank you so much for bringing this exceptional human being and for having these incredibly important conversations! Your questioning was EXCELLENT! I’m so grateful for the work that you do! This was fantastic! I am SO HAPPY right now! I’ll be referencing and coming back to listen to this one again and again! I’m BEYOND inspired!
I agree. I listened to Evy's audiobook - Becoming Bulletproof after this podcast, its amazing, learned so much! It was a very easy listen as Evy narrates it herself, and structures it to be both engaging and informative. Highly recommend.
I’m a mother of a pre teen, and the more I was watching this , the more I was thinking of ways we need to sit down together to watch it. Priceless advise that can be applied to all aspects of your life. Thank you!
@@Ratinevo Is questioning or evaluating the guest's level of security a reflection upon yourself? Perhaps it says something about me that I felt the need to comment, even though I am an armchair Spike-chologist
@@nicknico4121, she worked for Presidents, and mentioned elections briefly. I would say that she's incorruptible, but can keep a secret. Like James Comey or Mike Pence.
She is a perfect blend of elegance, confidence, power, beauty and intelligence. Kudos to her for becoming the woman she is today, and to her husband for being able to be around a strong woman. Maximum respect. Such an inspiration. Steven we need more of strong women like her on your show. 😎💪🏼😍
Love how she says that....being "sovereign" in herself. She is a legit strong woman, an inspirational bad ass... no whiff at all of fake girl boss energy. She's the Real Deal. Fantastic guest, keep 'em coming, and I'll keep coming back to watch 👊
she does not have to fake what she believes even while being deceitful. she has honed that trait ever since she was little..You don't make it into the CIA being Honest ABE my friend they don't look for those types.,
I loved this, too. It's so important in a world where women are told to only do for others. I wish she had talked more about how people can find their sovereignty because it's so important that people truly understand that and work on practicing it.
she has so many amazing skills, obviously - but what stands out to me is the emotional maturity. The ability to not be tossed about on every wave that comes your way. The ego in check, the ability to feel your feelings and still make good decisions for yourself and the people around you, the rare ability to resist narcissistically seeking something personally offensive in every situation.
" the rare ability to resist narcissistically seeking something personally offensive in every situation." -- maybe you need to get out more, it's not that rare.
i ordered her book during the pandemic and studied it bit by bit. she changed me as a woman. i am a military reservist now and studying clinical psychology at the same time. thank you for being an inspiration , evy!
you never really know what someone else has together. we can only know ourselves and how much we have our shit together ! and even that is also unknowable perhaps. and everything's changing all the time anyway so life is just an infinite freestyle.
@@deekey33 HAHA ! cheers mate ! yeah !! exactly. we can enjoy the perfection in life itself ! never mind assuming anything about other people ! even the people history regards as saints have had all sorts of curious habits ! in order to have our shit together, we all need to unite and get this planet sorted ! theres alotta work to do !!! we could say , were in the process of getting our shit together ! ..on the human level, on the ultimate level were all immortal and there is nothing to get together cos were allready one lol, but back to the human earth planet realm for a minute ! -_- lets get on with it ! ; )
@@jjque8900 pragmatic, yet evasive. She's objective focused and nothing will get in her way. I could see how she could seem that way because she brushes off any sort of distraction or feelings that could get in her way. It seems to be how agents are.
This is the best video I have ever watched on TH-cam. I am 73. I very rarely comment. Please send this to your families, loved ones , friends and your children and grandchildren ‘s teachers . I am Thank you TH-cam ❤❤❤
@@Jerry-jy7jmAnd of course, you have arguments as to why you'd make such a statement. I agree fully with the original comment, it is an eye opener. I consider myself a successful and confident person, yet I absorbed every word, took notes, plan on watching it again tomorrow and start applying some of these strategies asap. Thank you!
@@Jerry-jy7jmyour ignorance is showing, but worse if it's not ignorance, and actually foolishness, please do yourself and everyone else a favor, and get off this page and go waste your life elsewhere. Because life is about growing in some way/shape or form. You should "learn something new every day." To utter the word "BS" towards the ENTIRE interview... now THAT is in fact BS. Try again. Get specific if you're gonna be lazy, continue down the foolish path, let your life waste away. Do nothing gain nothing, waste time, money, resources. Get drunk, high on drugs, gamble, play games, watch porn, become a slave to any addiction, etc. Otherwise, why not relisten to it when, and see if you don't learn ANYTHING new. If still there are no gains, then rinse and repeat and continue to do so until you can put together a critically thought out intellectual critism, good or bad! Godspeed.
Very true, on the other hand some people always say "I didn't learn that at school" as an excuse that they lack knowledge on a particular subject. In reality school is just scratching the surface in regards to education, you must always be curious and seek knowledge on EVERYTHING through your whole life until the day you die.
Life is school and you should be growing daily, my Father taught me leaning 1 or 2 new things every day will put you ahead of 99 % of people , so keep Gathering. Love and miss him dearly Thank you Father
@chirigringo777 I wish I had a father to guide and instill me with wise knowledge.He died while I was still young.Most of the things I had to teach myself
One thing I've observed and truly appreciated is that she always mentions your name when beginning a story. I believe this is crucial as it fosters a sense of intimacy and connection between the conversation partners. Research supports this, suggesting that mentioning someone's name can encourage them to stay engaged and feel more involved in this conversation.
I absolutely hate it when people do that. Its annoying af to repeat someone's name as if they're not listening especially when they already ARE listening.
Evy's boundary setting is healthy and should be something everyone needs to practice. The problem we have in the U.S. is no one respects those boundaries.
So refreshing to hear someone who takes full responsibility for themselves. I so agreed with her when she said trauma has become a competition. Incredible woman.
Probably the best conversation I’ve heard on this show. Very inspiring and very encouraging. Almost felt like I was being coached by a genuine friend. Great talk
The reason this lady sounds so logical and humble is because she has an attitude of gratitude and is thankful for even the very smallest things that she is given in life. We could all take a lesson out of that playbook
Why are first generations so competent? Maybe not all, but it seems like everyone I like listening to is from that group. Even if her English has some interesting little quirks that throw me a bit. Fascinating interview. I plan to read her book. TY Steven.
Exactly. Makes you think that with all her knowledge of the world and the people in it. That shows us that when children are doing those things they are at risk, not learning as well and not safe.
Ah bullshit. Everyone already knows about phones. State education is full of Communists. TV is good with what you watch. You don't know this,? I don't work for the government and know this
This is probably one of the best conversations I have been privileged to listen to in the past 10 years. It's bookmarked and saved and liked for review later.
Thank you for inviting this wise, strong, and beautiful lady. I enjoyed every minuteof this conversation, discovering her incredible life story and brilliant mindset. 👏
i didn’t even notice I watched this 2-hr long interview… she’s such a woman of life and words. Taken notes on this interview and for sure will come back to it each and everytime. 🙌🏻
Focused & disciplined! I love how she (checks herself) isn’t blinded by the distractions & her emotions. Her wisdom is golden 💛 Thank you for this video.
Look, just because a person realizes where her or his weak spots are doesn't mean he or she can alter his behavior. You can realize a hundred times that people wipe their feet on you, because you show your insecurity, but this realization itself won't make you more confident.
@@helenivanova5440 you’re so right. It takes a thoughtful person to recognize and acknowledge, but it takes a truly special person to actually change and correct
@helenivanova5440 You are so wrong. As a perky blonde scientist, I recognized why I wasn't being taken seriously. Once I started taking myself more seriously, others did too.
@@pippa3150 well, I don't state that it happens this way in a hundred percent cases. Sometimes that's true and realization itself is enough to change everything. But it's obviously not enough to hear "just stop being a victim" to start feeling different immediately.
After years of counseling for childhood issues that bled into adult issues and never getting the golden ticket of healing, I just gave up one day and accepted that I would just be living with my issues the rest of my life. I would still try to improve myself but I accepted that I was never going to be "fixed." To my surprise it was the most freeing and healing thing Ive ever done. As she said, to not carry that "trailer" behind me was such an incredible relief. There is still always some level of discordance but I don't give the beast my time and thoughts for it to feed on and I'm so much better for it.
i‘m happy for u💯 sometimes counseling doesn’t happen on a couch. but it was def ur own will! otherwise u wouldn’t have "received" that message that brought u some closure. keep on looking for more & may god bless u🙏
@@ellengarcia4041 Not necessarily the writer's fault. Blame it on our current public educational system's standard of "leave no child behind" so they all get a diploma even if they don't have spelling or proper English skills.
The most important thing I saw in this interview was that when he talked, no matter for how long, she never said a word and kept her eyes on him. She was listening and present.
What i saw is the complete opposite. He is he one listenning and studying her and she is full of herself and doing all the things she said other people do.
@@simomaaroufihaving that reaction to this particular interview and women tells me that you're not experiencing the same reality as the rest of us, because you're a misogynist and probably also a bigot. I highly doubt that you've given even 1/10th of this woman's effort to our country in service. You can't see past your own nose, and people who eclipse you are perceived as a threat, especially women because you feel emasculated. To you, everything is a zero sum game. I'd feel pity for you, but I doubt you deserve it.
Problem is you have just given away how to catch the bad guy next time ! This goes world wide .Remember the show how to catch the thief. No X CIA AGENT SHOULD BE ABLE TO TALK so freely about how they keep us safe
C.I.A. and Secret Service although sound like the same thing are both very different. I think she did a good job of explaining her job but being vague enough to not give up how the organization operates.
You need to tap into your emotions to understand yourself and others, it is what brings about self awareness and a social conscious. Feeling, validating, processing and managing your emotions is the key to be able to govern yourself. Emotions and facts are NOT mutually exclusive, they go hand in hand. To stray from our emotions is to stray from the truth.
I once read a book by a psychologist about childhood trauma. One of the things that I always remember is that while kids need to process and talk about the things they experience, a weekly therapy appointment where they are expected to conjure up all these negative feelings can actually be detrimental. What matters is that they have a strong family bond, know they are understood and can talk about it any time they want and have been able to go through that initial processing...but a weekly date to go over it all again and again where they are expected to dig it all up and be sad all over again actually works against their ability to move on.
Then people become dependent on the feeling. That's how we get those people who say "I'm never leaving my therapist, can't live without them". They want to go and spill the beans, cry a bit, feel "validated" and go. More than validation it becomes a cycle of victim mentality
What I learned through good therapy is how to process stuck emotions. The reason people struggle to overcome anxiety, depression, and victimizhood mentality is because they have poor emotional regulation and were not taught that by caregivers. If children are crying and then being yelled at for crying, they will be afraid to feel things for fear of upsetting someone else. EMDR, meditation, and many other practices can be used in therapy and also practiced outside of therapy to help overcome these stuck, trapped emotions and experiences. We can develop better emotional maturity if we work through it. This woman just says "let it go", but if you can't process it, you will be stuck in it. My guess is that her parents were better skilled in helping her as a child with emotional regulation than others and have a very stable base to build on. But she's unaware of why others struggle bc this came naturally to her. A good therapist will not allow a patient to get stuck in rumination. They will try to help you feel the feeling and get it to pass through you. I wish I had known this decades ago, though it's never too late.
It’s unfortunate that this form of bad therapy isn’t addressed when going to therapy becomes a legal requirement in a case. Then there’s more salt added to the child’s wound.
This lady is smart. Be warm to people but if you are too friendly not good. True…I often said in the school years ago when the school system said we are now calling all the kids our friends everything was we are all friends. I thought this was wrong because as adults shouldn’t we be on a different level than the kids? Does this make sense to anyone ? It is like as a parent you are the authority figure.
“When I become sovereign, I’m good enough” 👏🏾 This woman is such a gem to humanity and a breath of fresh air in this day and age. Accountable, not a victim, with the determination to move forward and push through in spite of what life throws at you. Excellent episode!
This was awesome; that woman is awesome. I'm a Retired Marine Infantryman; and, quite a few of my stupid biases were firmly in-place as this interview began. She shut them all down.
You should work on muting your bias from past experiences so that you can live in the present. Otherwise, you miss opportunities by dismissing the talent of 50% of the population
More valuable info in this interview than I’ve heard in months. She is a thoughtful, grounded speaker, who articulates what many people believe, but do not have the words (or gumption) to speak.
I love this woman. She’s an outstanding human being. Balanced, yet passionate with meaningful purpose and incredible discipline, clearly operating with integrity in every aspect of her life. She’s got it right on every front. God Bless. We need leaders like this woman now for our country. Fellow New Yorker here too. She rocks. 💪🏻
I normally would not listen through a 2 hour interview but this woman’s insight commanded my attention and I literally gained my own insight listening to hers. Thank you for being you and giving us your story!
I'm 26 and have had a consistently messed up life due to being raised around a ton of meth addiction, poverty, and violence. Most of my family members (including siblings) were dead by my early 20s as a result. I think her advice about not letting your trauma become your identity is so valuable. I went to therapy for 2 years and for some reason my mental health just kept getting worse and worse. I realized it was because I was re-traumatizing myself because once I stopped going it felt like I'd taken a backpack filled with bricks off. Therapy can be a great tool but there is a limit where it does far more harm than good. I think a lot of people have a personality type where therapy is actually very bad for them and I am one of those types of people. It's incredibly scary to think we're as free and capable as we allow ourselves to be, especially when we've only ever seen those around us fail. Realizing I didn't have to be that person was devastating at first but I'm so much better off for it.
"we're as free and capable as we allow ourselves to be" are very wise and beautiful words. I work with people with similar backgrounds to yours. The programming is hard to break out of. The fact that you are listening to this podcast shows that you are interested in learning and growing as a person. I wish you well in your journey and hope that you have a happy and fulfilling life.
Therapy May have been Detrimental due to an uninformed Therapist. As an Example: If the Therapist wants to Apply ‘Cognitive Therapy’ & Focuses on the Client Changing & Accepting all of the Responsibility to Change their Perspective. Maybe the Person’s Real Problem, is that they are Actively Being ABUSED, & Mental, Emotional, & Neglect Counts. So, the therapist is Essentially Gaslighting the Client & Not Hearing their Painful Reality! Another guess: I can Imagine that if There is a Therapist that just allows the Client to talk& talk & talk, without any Input… Maybe the Therapist wants a STEADY CLIENT to help PAD their INCOME SECURITY, instead of actually Helping the Client to Progress & Heal. Think Outside the Assumption that YOU were to BLAME as that limits Other Real Possibilities… The Spiritual: GOD is Real & Wants 100% JOY, GOOD , LOVE, Prosperity, & ALL Positives. So, we can have Ugly Stuff, Especially from other People’s Bad Choices… But, we have to Choose Our Goals & Good & take Action toward WHO WE REALLY ARE! 🙏🏻 Blessings!☀️🌸🕊🍃
Good for u! Only the truly greatest minds can overcome deeply ingrained conditioning. Keep going on your path, trust yourself. Reconditioning is a long, up and down but rewarding journey.
Ooooh myyyy godddd!!!! Just halfway through the video I couldn't resist the urge to comment just how much influential this video is. It's quite effective with no irrelevant use of words but also not so short concepts. Everything's just so adequate with an essence of maturity and experience. This video has caused Stephen to gain a follower and Evy a lifetime fan. Truly love the effort.
This woman is a treasure! She is so clever, educated and beautiful, yet so grounded! Every word she is saying is gold! It would be so good to see more women like her in today's world. Just love her ❤ Thank you, Steven, for bringing her! Huge thanks to Evy for the value she spreads! ❤💐
Phenomenal interview with an intensely insightful and inspiring woman. Evy has to be one of my favourite guests on this podcast. I aspire to attain her level of emotional mastery and intellectual maturity. I very much look forward to reading her book.
@@ChatGPT1111huh? Do you not have eyes and are you incapable of listening? I knew the moment I started watching that this woman is incredibly fit, she looks amazing and healthy, and then to hear her training with Don Saladino who is one of the most renowned and well-known trainers and fitness experts around and her talking about her work outs and running and how she eats and how her body is a temple, etc...and you seriously have to wonder how she is fit physically? Clearly you need some help yourself but in the cognitive department.
This podcast is by far the best I have ever listed to. This woman is inspiration to every human race. Love her resiliency and none-sense share with all your loved once. I am so grateful to receive this incredible life changing lesson thank you for providing this platform
The technicality of the grounds she covered in this one session of interview is outstanding. Most talk about it and there’s some who backs it up and she’s definitely one of rare few who supports it. Well done.
Wow! This resonates with me deeply! After dedicating over 30 years to climbing the corporate ladder, I recently opted for voluntary redundancy. Reflecting on my journey, I realise I could have advocated for myself more assertively instead of being overly accommodating or self-deprecating. It's time to stop dwelling in self-pity and start embracing new opportunities! Thanks for the inspiration, Evy!
I’m in exactly the same position as you. I retired 4 years ago at 47 after exactly 30 years in the corporate game. My eyes were opened to an alternative stress free and more thoughtful way of living. My relationships have flourished with all the important people in my life and unexpectedly I’m better off financially too.
This interview educates me way more than 100 therapy sessions. What she has to say is way more valuable than what my therapists have said so far. I’ve always realized that the classic psychotherapy doesn’t work for me because it stops me in the past and in my healthy energy to move on. This interview makes it clear. I thank you very much!
Yea honestly I believe her experience and what she has seen makes her words so much more powerful than the knowledge therapists gain in school. Sure, it's also knowledge, but it's only this sort of life or death situations and meeting all these different people in life that teach you the best and most valuable life lessons hands on.
Evy's attitude on raising Her daughter. Specifically the influence of Media. Outstanding. Such an envigorating person to hear speak. Thank you Evy-and you, Mr B.
What I love about her is her she is driven and guided by her core values and her integrity is sky high. She's got such a humbleness about her, along with the confidence to be who she is. What an inspiration. I can't wait to read her book.
You don't have the skills. You can change that any day you want. Setting boundaries isn't just a natural skill your born with. My advice is don't look at the problem as this giant thing. Change can be a slow and often one of the most difficult process. Unfortunately there are so many things to distract us from confronting our our real issues . You recognize the issue. You did what you knew what to do at the time don't beat yourself up about the past. It's a skill based problem now. Learn how you got to where you are and learn how to not go back there. Personal change is one of the hardest thing I've personally ever done. But it has been my hardest struggles that have always turned the out to be most impactful of my life. Who cares how you are paying the price now. Every day is another day to change the things we do not like in our lives. It's also another day to buy a new pair of shoes and not deal with any of it.
This is the best interview I have ever watched!!! I love that touched conflict, trauma, anxiety, respect, communication, health… This woman is amazing!!!
Κα Πουμπουρα, δεν έχω ακούσει ξανά άνθρωπο με τόσο συγκροτημένο εαυτό. Θαμπωθηκα, κ αποθηκευω το video αυτό ως μαθημα για εμένα αλλά κ τα παιδιά μου. Θα ψάξω για το βιβλίο σας. Σας ευχαριστούμε για το μάθημα ζωής κ συμπεριφοράς απέναντι κατ αρχάς στον εαυτό μας κ απέναντι στους άλλους. Σας ευχομαι τα καλύτερα γιατί έχετε δουλέψει σκληρά για να τα κερδίσετε κ φαίνεται. Είστε ένα λαμπερό πνεύμα.
I’ve watched countless episodes of DOAC. Evy’s interview has officially become my favorite. And has had a huge impact on my behavior and perspective in the short time it has been released. Thank you so much Steven…a million times!
I absolutely adore Evy. She is very inspiring. So many of the skills she discussed I have used with my clients in counseling and my patients in the Emergency Room. A word of caution regarding her opinions about therapy and trauma. Trauma therapy is much more than and should never be just regurgitating the trauma experience weekly. Also, people have differing strengths, different wiring. Some people are verbal processors and benefit from psychoanalysis. And some people are incapable of participating in physical exercise to manage their stress. I'm truly happy that Evy has found the formula that works for her. There is no shame in needing prescription drugs or therapy to manage mental health symptoms if that is part of your effective formula. Find what works for you, be it therapy, art, music, baking, quality time with loved ones, watching a comedy, etc. It is normal and necessary to feel anxious and depressed. It is part of the human condition. It is vital to growth and resilience as it helps us process challenges and is a sign that something is out of balance and needs addressing. Find your formula and adjust as needed. Best to all of you.
Ya, depends on age and depth of the trauma, not everyone has been blessed with a decent life. BUT the vast number of people on here that WANT to be seen as victims is sickening. That is an even worse slap in the face to someone dealing with extreme trauma.
This women is my hero. I absolutely adore her. Her book is amazing. I’m going to read it again. I wish I had a role model like this when I was a kid. She is everything I wish I could be.
I was hooked through this interview. I even stopped, rewind the section, and listen again so I could take it all in and really listen. Thank you for this I will watch it again
Best interview ever. It’s the scenario that her training could never predict. Sixteen yr old kid who was presumably paralysed with fear and couldn’t show his hands after many minutes of being told he would be SHOT if he didn’t do so. He wasn’t deaf. He wasn’t holding a lethal weapon. He was petrified. This is truly remarkable.
The interviewer is just low-average; he has pre-arranged questions and does not follow up and ask "why". He gets an answer and moves to the next pre-arranged question. I get the impression that the guests know the questions in advance and have prepared answers. I'll never watch this guy again. Look at Larry King interviews. Everything a person says has within it another question to ask "why". This guy does not draw the guest out. He's a cardboard cutout, with narration/speaking skill only.
@@RxsieExdes21 It is not a conversation. It is a Q and A session with pre-planned questions and answers. after an answer, no further digging. He's NOT an interviewer here, he is merely a reader.
@@thankmelater1254 And I found it great: he was prepared, wasn't interrupting, was a great listener and was refering to what she said. His intellingence and empathy is definitely more than average
I am a teacher, and my hat is off to Evy for keeping electronic media away from her daughter!! Well done!! Keep up the good work...it is a parent's job to protect their child's innocence, and controlling what they are exposed to is part of that.

This was amazing, I love her so much - she is so genuine, the way she carries herself, so different from most women, one of a kind. Incredible interview
Okay, I think I can officially say you guys have the best Podcast on the internet!
I ❤ Evy! Her book, "Bulletproof" is a must read!!
you asked for a sub, so I disliked the video.
‘Kill the fear whilst it’s still small’ - such an amazing statement for living a full life
When you move towards your fear it gets smaller.
It looks bigger from afar, like a trick of the light.
Loved this interview and podcast!!! Evy is a badass and I love it- she is such an inspiration and role model- I am 63 and strive to be more like her as I age!!!!
Did she learn to protect her heart from fear, or theirs?+
Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain(dune). - 1:32:40 I got my ass on a plane.
Jamie Winship… Identity Exchange. This is his mission.
As a clinical psychologist, I am really impressed. She has an amazing self-care philosophy, and uses communication to keep her boundaries. This is extremely important not just in her career, but in life every day.
Do you see patients virtually?
Really, because my impression is that she doesn't understand trauma at all. 😢
As a psychologist you're a shrink. But merely to swindle medicaid adults out of coverage because, you maxed their accounts for the year..
@@rhondabowlin1883 You want her to keep validating people's victimhood because that is what today's society wants. "Your emotions are valid" - so stay there and dwell on it?" This is not going to end well for a lot of people. That is why the West is getting more and more depressed, especially women, because you're cheering on each other to see who is the bigger victim. It's like a victim Olympics on social media! No people, you got hurt, you suffered and yes it hurts and you are entitled to feel bad but after that, start looking forward. Don't freaking stay there!!
@@rhondabowlin1883 She's amazing. I don't know what you are on about!
I don't know if people really realize the value of this podcast , this is priceless .
Some of this criticism is valid and true.
Agree wholeheartedly about the value of this podcast. So much of my experience would be different if I granted more grace, as she does, to sidestep biases and assumptions. To allocate energy to a more productive mindset.

@@chrischris9157Wow, not sure what her appearance has to do with it. Seems you are very judgemental...
Are you insecure? 🤔
Well, appearances in general don't have to do anything with personality...until it comes to plastic surgery. Since that's a sign for me that the person doesn't want to see their bad sides or thinks of covering them up for some gains. (that's how I perceive it) But I'm not sure if she had it, since I'm more listening to it than looking this. But there is a thing that I don't get from daphnefaetv's comment. Why do you perceive her as selfless, if she said don't let other people's (shit) chaos invade your personal space and distance yourselves from them. (Even though it was said, it's only partial) Since that wouldn't be my interpretation of selfless.
She's manipulating.
Let me excerpt this from her speech: "your body is your temple; you have to take care of what houses your soul and your mind," this is so deep and something the majority of people underestimate including myself.
It's biblical
The Bible says this and many other things full of wisdom.
Even people who aren't religious can still learn a lot from it. You should consider reading it eventually 😊
From the The New Testament in the Bible.
1 Corinthians 6:19 Know ye not, that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye have of God? and ye are not your own.
20 For ye are bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit: for they are God’s.
What I find strange is that she would say this and then inject her face with so many weird chemicals that her face is semi frozen!
@@arielcarol3113 her face, her body 🤷♂️
Loved this interview so much! The way she talks - so clear, no extra "uh, um,mm..." nothing. It's so interesting, smooth and super informative to listen. First time in my life I've been so concentrated when watching interview like this, not even wanting to pause the video. Thank you for this interview!!!

Totally agree ❤
I love how accountable she is. She isn't blaming other people, she isn't moping about events she can't change. Focusing on what "I can do" is a really beautiful lesson
Well yes, but she has a strong family structure and community. Her summers in Greece and feeling obligated to marry within her culture is a strong indication. Not everyone has those, especially several generations into the US. A certain narcissism sets in with
success that can affect the mental health of your children, especially with this whole perfectionist mindset. Raising kids is an imperfect process. I'd love to see her interviewed in 20 years and see if she's changed at all.
@@chaoswitch1974mam takie samo wrażenie jak ty.
There are two places to find the answers you have in your life. You can look inside or you can look outside. The people who look outside dream. Those who look inside are awakened.
And she still seems to have empathy. In other words, she doesn't have to trash talk people to bring herself up. She is just using examples of those with a victim mindset to show it isn't productive. Some people have maybe had to much trauma that is almost physically impossible for their brain and body to leave behind, like an addiction. This is why she says people have to want to leave their trauma and what keeps them trapped in their identity. It's the same for addiction, the only way someone can get over that is if they truly want to, and then find the resources to do it. The mindset of truly wanting to, vs not, is the key difference. It's true that some people are more equipped to do this and therefore more fortunate in that regard, though.
@@bluemonday70-bl5ne she's pretty critical of people who suffer from depression, as if it's a waste of time. It's a very old world point of view. It's practical though and she'd make an incredible life coach.

Evy has her mind on the right track. She knows herself and knows what she wants to do. An incredible person. Not caring about what others think of her and keeps it realistic. Inspirational!
She definitely cares what other people think of her. That is a big part of her training and how she is able to do her job and her life. This entire I service was about how to get respect without demanding it. Respect is earned by caring what people think of what you say, how you say it, what you do and how you do it.
" If you are not comfortable dropping your kid in the middle of Times Square to talk to whoever, then you get that thing(cell phone) out of her hands". So true!!👍
💯
So true. Yet far too many moms and dads really believe they have no control over what their kids ingest. 50:50 battle is spot on.
Not just a good thought experiment for kids, but for some adults too that struggle with confidence and human interaction!
When she said, “Economy.”
Doing the right thing by our children is usually harder in the short term but the overwhelming wisest investment into their future in the long term.
She strikes me as a good example of the idea that you only really find true freedom through self discipline. Not by following your every whim and want.

Let me have her
She is not a Rockstar. She states what she is and was.
she has so many amazing skills, obviously - but what stands out to me is the emotional maturity. The ability to not be tossed about on every wave that comes your way. The ego in check, the ability to feel your feelings and still make good decisions for yourself and the people around you, the rare ability to resist narcissistically seeking something personally offensive in every situation.

One thing I've observed and truly appreciated is that she always mentions your name when beginning a story. I believe this is crucial as it fosters a sense of intimacy and connection between the conversation partners. Research supports this, suggesting that mentioning someone's name can encourage them to stay engaged and feel more involved in this conversation.
I absolutely hate it when people do that. Its annoying af to repeat someone's name as if they're not listening especially when they already ARE listening.
I’ve also heard that manipulators use your name a lot to trick you into thinking you can trust them.

So refreshing to hear someone who takes full responsibility for themselves. I so agreed with her when she said trauma has become a competition. Incredible woman.
I love this lady. She’s strong, smart, confident and not taking no bs, but also humble and kind. She’s awesome!
Hey how are you
Probably the best conversation I’ve heard on this show. Very inspiring and very encouraging. Almost felt like I was being coached by a genuine friend. Great talk
The reason this lady sounds so logical and humble is because she has an attitude of gratitude and is thankful for even the very smallest things that she is given in life. We could all take a lesson out of that playbook
I wish she was my mom. :/
Why are first generations so competent? Maybe not all, but it seems like everyone I like listening to is from that group. Even if her English has some interesting little quirks that throw me a bit.

@@FlemmingGiese I don't think you know the definition of humble.

if this women is not letting her child go to state school, have a phone or watch TV, who works for the government, then that should make you think...
😮
Exactly. Makes you think that with all her knowledge of the world and the people in it. That shows us that when children are doing those things they are at risk, not learning as well and not safe.
Thinkers come here in the first place. Your comment is very true however.
Ah bullshit. Everyone already knows about phones. State education is full of Communists. TV is good with what you watch. You don't know this,? I don't work for the government and know this
The even scarier part is how most of the other parents who do the same thing are most likely on an FBI watch list🇺🇲

Every single person in the USA needs to listen to this woman... especially "all the victims." It surely inspires me to change a lot of my standards.
Same. Makes me see my own victim mentality where it exists so I can squash it.
Look, just because a person realizes where her or his weak spots are doesn't mean he or she can alter his behavior. You can realize a hundred times that people wipe their feet on you, because you show your insecurity, but this realization itself won't make you more confident.

After years of counseling for childhood issues that bled into adult issues and never getting the golden ticket of healing, I just gave up one day and accepted that I would just be living with my issues the rest of my life. I would still try to improve myself but I accepted that I was never going to be "fixed." To my surprise it was the most freeing and healing thing Ive ever done. As she said, to not carry that "trailer" behind me was such an incredible relief. There is still always some level of discordance but I don't give the beast my time and thoughts for it to feed on and I'm so much better for it.
This is such a wonderful way of seeing it. Thank you for sharing!

You need to tap into your emotions to understand yourself and others, it is what brings about self awareness and a social conscious. Feeling, validating, processing and managing your emotions is the key to be able to govern yourself. Emotions and facts are NOT mutually exclusive, they go hand in hand. To stray from our emotions is to stray from the truth.
I once read a book by a psychologist about childhood trauma. One of the things that I always remember is that while kids need to process and talk about the things they experience, a weekly therapy appointment where they are expected to conjure up all these negative feelings can actually be detrimental. What matters is that they have a strong family bond, know they are understood and can talk about it any time they want and have been able to go through that initial processing...but a weekly date to go over it all again and again where they are expected to dig it all up and be sad all over again actually works against their ability to move on.
Then people become dependent on the feeling. That's how we get those people who say "I'm never leaving my therapist, can't live without them". They want to go and spill the beans, cry a bit, feel "validated" and go. More than validation it becomes a cycle of victim mentality
Yeah… this is bad therapy guys. Good therapy supports you in personal growth and independence.
What I learned through good therapy is how to process stuck emotions. The reason people struggle to overcome anxiety, depression, and victimizhood mentality is because they have poor emotional regulation and were not taught that by caregivers. If children are crying and then being yelled at for crying, they will be afraid to feel things for fear of upsetting someone else. EMDR, meditation, and many other practices can be used in therapy and also practiced outside of therapy to help overcome these stuck, trapped emotions and experiences. We can develop better emotional maturity if we work through it. This woman just says "let it go", but if you can't process it, you will be stuck in it. My guess is that her parents were better skilled in helping her as a child with emotional regulation than others and have a very stable base to build on. But she's unaware of why others struggle bc this came naturally to her. A good therapist will not allow a patient to get stuck in rumination. They will try to help you feel the feeling and get it to pass through you. I wish I had known this decades ago, though it's never too late.
It’s unfortunate that this form of bad therapy isn’t addressed when going to therapy becomes a legal requirement in a case. Then there’s more salt added to the child’s wound.
This lady is smart. Be warm to people but if you are too friendly not good. True…I often said in the school years ago when the school system said we are now calling all the kids our friends everything was we are all friends. I thought this was wrong because as adults shouldn’t we be on a different level than the kids? Does this make sense to anyone ? It is like as a parent you are the authority figure.
Man, this is NO. 1 episode for me here. It's a pure fire. Evy is simply magnificent
Good to see some one bold, honest, knowledgeable, open to the public.
“When I become sovereign, I’m good enough” 👏🏾 This woman is such a gem to humanity and a breath of fresh air in this day and age. Accountable, not a victim, with the determination to move forward and push through in spite of what life throws at you. Excellent episode!
This was awesome; that woman is awesome. I'm a Retired Marine Infantryman; and, quite a few of my stupid biases were firmly in-place as this interview began. She shut them all down.
You should work on muting your bias from past experiences so that you can live in the present. Otherwise, you miss opportunities by dismissing the talent of 50% of the population
@@pinschrunnerGreat point ❤
amen! she is a treasure ❤
That is an awesome and inspiring admission. Thank you for sharing.
Love that she achieved this and that you now have advanced insight.
What an utter breath of fresh air with an old fashioned sense of healthful overcoming and sense of peace.
More valuable info in this interview than I’ve heard in months. She is a thoughtful, grounded speaker, who articulates what many people believe, but do not have the words (or gumption) to speak.
Hey how are you doing
I love this woman. She’s an outstanding human being. Balanced, yet passionate with meaningful purpose and incredible discipline, clearly operating with integrity in every aspect of her life. She’s got it right on every front. God Bless. We need leaders like this woman now for our country.
Fellow New Yorker here too. She rocks. 💪🏻
DITTO...NEW YORKER..QUEENS :)
I normally would not listen through a 2 hour interview but this woman’s insight commanded my attention and I literally gained my own insight listening to hers. Thank you for being you and giving us your story!
Same!!!
Me too
💯
I'm 26 and have had a consistently messed up life due to being raised around a ton of meth addiction, poverty, and violence. Most of my family members (including siblings) were dead by my early 20s as a result. I think her advice about not letting your trauma become your identity is so valuable. I went to therapy for 2 years and for some reason my mental health just kept getting worse and worse. I realized it was because I was re-traumatizing myself because once I stopped going it felt like I'd taken a backpack filled with bricks off. Therapy can be a great tool but there is a limit where it does far more harm than good. I think a lot of people have a personality type where therapy is actually very bad for them and I am one of those types of people. It's incredibly scary to think we're as free and capable as we allow ourselves to be, especially when we've only ever seen those around us fail. Realizing I didn't have to be that person was devastating at first but I'm so much better off for it.
"we're as free and capable as we allow ourselves to be" are very wise and beautiful words. I work with people with similar backgrounds to yours. The programming is hard to break out of. The fact that you are listening to this podcast shows that you are interested in learning and growing as a person. I wish you well in your journey and hope that you have a happy and fulfilling life.
I can relate to this so much growing up in Flint bless you love
Therapy May have been Detrimental due to an uninformed Therapist. As an Example: If the Therapist wants to Apply ‘Cognitive Therapy’ & Focuses on the Client Changing & Accepting all of the Responsibility to Change their Perspective. Maybe the Person’s Real Problem, is that they are Actively Being ABUSED, & Mental, Emotional, & Neglect Counts. So, the therapist is Essentially Gaslighting the Client & Not Hearing their Painful Reality!
Another guess: I can Imagine that if There is a Therapist that just allows the Client to talk& talk & talk, without any Input… Maybe the Therapist wants a STEADY CLIENT to help PAD their INCOME SECURITY, instead of actually Helping the Client to Progress & Heal.
Think Outside the Assumption that YOU were to BLAME as that limits Other Real Possibilities…
The Spiritual: GOD is Real & Wants 100% JOY, GOOD , LOVE, Prosperity, & ALL Positives. So, we can have Ugly Stuff, Especially from other People’s Bad Choices… But, we have to Choose Our Goals & Good & take Action toward WHO WE REALLY ARE!
🙏🏻 Blessings!☀️🌸🕊🍃
Good for u! Only the truly greatest minds can overcome deeply ingrained conditioning. Keep going on your path, trust yourself. Reconditioning is a long, up and down but rewarding journey.
be an apple that rolls far from the tree...leave.
Ooooh myyyy godddd!!!! Just halfway through the video I couldn't resist the urge to comment just how much influential this video is. It's quite effective with no irrelevant use of words but also not so short concepts. Everything's just so adequate with an essence of maturity and experience. This video has caused Stephen to gain a follower and Evy a lifetime fan.
Truly love the effort.
This woman is a treasure! She is so clever, educated and beautiful, yet so grounded! Every word she is saying is gold! It would be so good to see more women like her in today's world. Just love her ❤ Thank you, Steven, for bringing her! Huge thanks to Evy for the value she spreads! ❤💐
As a young woman, I'm in awe! She's exceptional! Such an inspiration.
Because,low life all around,so she stands out.
Higher standards.
She is a foot soldier.
Well trained.
Phenomenal interview with an intensely insightful and inspiring woman.
Evy has to be one of my favourite guests on this podcast.
I aspire to attain her level of emotional mastery and intellectual maturity.
I very much look forward to reading her book.
This was one of my FAV PODCAST EPISODES EVER.
I like this woman. She strong, mentally and physically, and has good moral values.
She is also naive.
How is she strong physically? Women in these fields only have to do pushups on their knees and reduced pullups and running.
She is doing a job....
@@ChatGPT1111huh? Do you not have eyes and are you incapable of listening? I knew the moment I started watching that this woman is incredibly fit, she looks amazing and healthy, and then to hear her training with Don Saladino who is one of the most renowned and well-known trainers and fitness experts around and her talking about her work outs and running and how she eats and how her body is a temple, etc...and you seriously have to wonder how she is fit physically? Clearly you need some help yourself but in the cognitive department.
@@mariaanjonker6195 why do you think that?
This podcast is by far the best I have ever listed to. This woman is inspiration to every human race. Love her resiliency and none-sense share with all your loved once. I am so grateful to receive this incredible life changing lesson thank you for providing this platform
Hey how are you doing
The most intelligent human being I ever listened to. What a bliss that she exists. Thanks for finding this interview ❤❤❤❤
Hey how are you doing
The technicality of the grounds she covered in this one session of interview is outstanding. Most talk about it and there’s some who backs it up and she’s definitely one of rare few who supports it. Well done.
Wow! This resonates with me deeply! After dedicating over 30 years to climbing the corporate ladder, I recently opted for voluntary redundancy. Reflecting on my journey, I realise I could have advocated for myself more assertively instead of being overly accommodating or self-deprecating. It's time to stop dwelling in self-pity and start embracing new opportunities! Thanks for the inspiration, Evy!
This message was like a sign from the universe to me. I'm feeling the same things you said in your comment, and it inspired me! Thank you!
I’m in exactly the same position as you. I retired 4 years ago at 47 after exactly 30 years in the corporate game. My eyes were opened to an alternative stress free and more thoughtful way of living. My relationships have flourished with all the important people in my life and unexpectedly I’m better off financially too.
This interview educates me way more than 100 therapy sessions. What she has to say is way more valuable than what my therapists have said so far.
I’ve always realized that the classic psychotherapy doesn’t work for me because it stops me in the past and in my healthy energy to move on.
This interview makes it clear.
I thank you very much!
Yea honestly I believe her experience and what she has seen makes her words so much more powerful than the knowledge therapists gain in school. Sure, it's also knowledge, but it's only this sort of life or death situations and meeting all these different people in life that teach you the best and most valuable life lessons hands on.
Indeed!
Evy's attitude on raising Her daughter. Specifically the influence of Media. Outstanding. Such an envigorating person to hear speak. Thank you Evy-and you, Mr B.
10q yoy and l know very well cos we grow up eth cultures and ortdox chures support displine😊
What a well put together individual, we need more thinkers like her in the world. One of the best podcasts I have experienced.
What I love about her is her she is driven and guided by her core values and her integrity is sky high. She's got such a humbleness about her, along with the confidence to be who she is. What an inspiration. I can't wait to read her book.
I recognize that I haven't had the boundaries needed with people and am paying in ways I can't even begin to express.
You don't have the skills. You can change that any day you want. Setting boundaries isn't just a natural skill your born with. My advice is don't look at the problem as this giant thing. Change can be a slow and often one of the most difficult process. Unfortunately there are so many things to distract us from confronting our our real issues . You recognize the issue. You did what you knew what to do at the time don't beat yourself up about the past. It's a skill based problem now. Learn how you got to where you are and learn how to not go back there. Personal change is one of the hardest thing I've personally ever done. But it has been my hardest struggles that have always turned the out to be most impactful of my life. Who cares how you are paying the price now. Every day is another day to change the things we do not like in our lives. It's also another day to buy a new pair of shoes and not deal with any of it.
This is the best interview I have ever watched!!! I love that touched conflict, trauma, anxiety, respect, communication, health… This woman is amazing!!!
Κα Πουμπουρα, δεν έχω ακούσει ξανά άνθρωπο με τόσο συγκροτημένο εαυτό. Θαμπωθηκα, κ αποθηκευω το video αυτό ως μαθημα για εμένα αλλά κ τα παιδιά μου. Θα ψάξω για το βιβλίο σας. Σας ευχαριστούμε για το μάθημα ζωής κ συμπεριφοράς απέναντι κατ αρχάς στον εαυτό μας κ απέναντι στους άλλους. Σας ευχομαι τα καλύτερα γιατί έχετε δουλέψει σκληρά για να τα κερδίσετε κ φαίνεται. Είστε ένα λαμπερό πνεύμα.
Συμφωνώ απόλυτα
Hey how are you doing
I’ve watched countless episodes of DOAC. Evy’s interview has officially become my favorite. And has had a huge impact on my behavior and perspective in the short time it has been released. Thank you so much Steven…a million times!
Hey how are you doing
“You have to take care of what houses your soul and your mind.” ❤ this!
I absolutely adore Evy. She is very inspiring. So many of the skills she discussed I have used with my clients in counseling and my patients in the Emergency Room.
A word of caution regarding her opinions about therapy and trauma. Trauma therapy is much more than and should never be just regurgitating the trauma experience weekly. Also, people have differing strengths, different wiring. Some people are verbal processors and benefit from psychoanalysis. And some people are incapable of participating in physical exercise to manage their stress. I'm truly happy that Evy has found the formula that works for her. There is no shame in needing prescription drugs or therapy to manage mental health symptoms if that is part of your effective formula. Find what works for you, be it therapy, art, music, baking, quality time with loved ones, watching a comedy, etc. It is normal and necessary to feel anxious and depressed. It is part of the human condition. It is vital to growth and resilience as it helps us process challenges and is a sign that something is out of balance and needs addressing. Find your formula and adjust as needed. Best to all of you.
Ya, depends on age and depth of the trauma, not everyone has been blessed with a decent life. BUT the vast number of people on here that WANT to be seen as victims is sickening. That is an even worse slap in the face to someone dealing with extreme trauma.
This women is my hero. I absolutely adore her. Her book is amazing. I’m going to read it again. I wish I had a role model like this when I was a kid. She is everything I wish I could be.
I was hooked through this interview. I even stopped, rewind the section, and listen again so I could take it all in and really listen. Thank you for this I will watch it again
Best interview ever. It’s the scenario that her training could never predict. Sixteen yr old kid who was presumably paralysed with fear and couldn’t show his hands after many minutes of being told he would be SHOT if he didn’t do so. He wasn’t deaf. He wasn’t holding a lethal weapon. He was petrified. This is truly remarkable.
The interviewer is just low-average; he has pre-arranged questions and does not follow up and ask "why". He gets an answer and moves to the next pre-arranged question. I get the impression that the guests know the questions in advance and have prepared answers.
I'll never watch this guy again.
Look at Larry King interviews. Everything a person says has within it another question to ask "why". This guy does not draw the guest out. He's a cardboard cutout, with narration/speaking skill only.
@thankmelater1254 these two are having a healthy grown up conversation...
@@RxsieExdes21 It is not a conversation. It is a Q and A session with pre-planned questions and answers.
after an answer, no further digging.
He's NOT an interviewer here, he is merely a reader.
@@thankmelater1254 A wholesome choice for you could be to change the channel.
@@thankmelater1254 And I found it great: he was prepared, wasn't interrupting, was a great listener and was refering to what she said. His intellingence and empathy is definitely more than average
This woman is brilliant. Every time i watch i podcast with her her strength is contagious.
This may be one of the greatest interviews I have ever seen.
💯
I am a teacher, and my hat is off to Evy for keeping electronic media away from her daughter!! Well done!! Keep up the good work...it is a parent's job to protect their child's innocence, and controlling what they are exposed to is part of that.
She knows the media lies most of the time 😅
What time stamp was that in the podcast i think i missed it
Agree but I think she said she was 18 months old. Let’s see how they are getting on when the child is 8, 10,12 years old
The problem is the school system has now got everything loaded on an online platform so there is no escaping it to some extent.
@roserosalindflying499 "No" can still be said
It was like a breath of fresh air. Straight to the point, no fuss, no water, simple and honest.
Evy has an incredible mindset. She's straight-talking and makes so much sense! Great interview.
I could listen to her even more. This lady's mindset is amazing! 👏👏👏
"Your body houses you soul" Beautiful, that is a brilliant way to make your own body's representation!!!
A soul belongs to G@D. She said earlier she said people who believe and read the Bible or use the rosary are liars, so therefore she is a liar
This woman is a badass! I love hearing her perspective on life and interacting with others. Thank you for interviewing her.
I just finished eating ice cream and watched your video. It hit me. I’m 54 years old. 5’8” and 235lbs my journey starts today.
Wth
Never too late!
Watching this empowers you!! Same ❤
Sending love your way!
You got this!
