Thank you so much for this conversation with Martha Beck! I usually don't listen to/view your podcast when I'm low on energy, because I really want to get all the info, but today I did. I listened to all of it in one go and while listening and now I feel energized and at peace. I've listened to so many hours of your content and interviews, but this conversation was really special. I feel strangely touched by it (goosebumps!) , which is not normal for my science oriented mind. Thank you both for being so open and vulnerable. I hope you both live long and prosper in all of your endeavors
I was at the edge of my seat this whole episode while watching it on TV. I cannot believe we reached a point where we're talking about this openly, and on a neuroscience podcast! Humanity is going somewhere exciting and awesome very soon and I am so excited to witness it and feel it.
Hi Andrew...I live in Pakistan...in a very small village where even electricity is not proper..mobile signals are dependent on luck...but I am blessed to be student of professor at Stanford..may God bless you with your endeavors..I really appreciate the way you work for spreading best knowledge available to you...lots of prays..
Andrew, if you're seeing this, I want to thank you for this particular episode. I've been a regular consumer of your podcast for long and when that ugliness online happened I was outraged and quite disgusted at how people were treating you. The fact that you continue to bring yourself with equal or more love, MORE vulnerability, MORE Openness and display an entirely unconditional dedication to no-cost education for people like me...... this makes you one of my personal heroes. I've always marveled at your knowledge and your teaching method and to learn that you're a top person too just makes it all so much more meaningful for me. Big thanks always. Taking notes always.
"Let me fall... the one I will become will catch me!" - stunningly poigniant. Thank you both for taking the time to do this interview. What a beautiful human connection to witness.
Andrew!!! Thank you for reminding me how amazing, intelligent and inspiring Martha Beck is. My respect for YOU grows and grows as you continue to provide the highest quality education for our entire Beings. Thank you for sharing your heart, mind and soul with us. It’s an honor to be here.🌻
My FAVORITE podcast yet! it was so incredible to see Huberman being so vulnerable, free, open, funny - it really seemed like he wasn't worry about judgement. he seemed sooooo comfortable with Dr. Beck which is just a testament to how special she must be! such a smart woman!
I'm a huge fan Andrew. And as 45 year old Christian man with a very sketchy, violent, and drug filled past, I just want to say this. I've never heard of Dr Beck before playing this video, and I will never forget her name henceforth. What an amazing woman! I can relate with almost every angle she came from, and almost every turn the this conversation took correlated with my experience in my own life and growth and healing. Amazing amazing amazing. Keep doing what you're doing. It is incredibly beneficial.
I can definitely agree with you on that, this podcast has introduced me to so many new people whose name and wisdom will forever be etched into my mind. God bless you.
I have watched this 3x. I grew up Mormon and I have a son with Down syndrome. I’ve loved Martha since Expecting Adam. She is so authentic it scares me although it feels like utter liberation. Thank you for having her as a guest!
Martha enabled me to leave a very long unhappy marraige 12 years ago. She’s such an authentic soul. Im now very careful about who I let into my life but I’m never lonely. Through their podcasts Martha and Rowan keep me connected with my true self. My relationships are better and I am finally happy in my own skin. Finding Martha was like coming home.
So refreshing to hear this conversation on Huberman Lab Podcast with Dr. Martha Beck. The idea of listening to and trusting one’s body, embracing suffering, and aligning with personal truth through feeling-rather than external expectations-has always resonated deeply with me. Yet, when I’ve shared the importance of these values, they’ve often been challenged, leaving me questioning, even resisting, and at times feeling wrong for choosing this path. Each time I ignored my own inner guidance, the consequence was profound: pain that manifested physically, emotionally, and psychologically. Despite seeking help, no doctor or therapist could pinpoint a solution beyond identifying my nervous system as stuck in freeze. But through presence, self-compassion, and the courage to trust myself, I’m finally beginning to orient and heal. Along the way, I’ve noticed friends and others feel encouraged to explore these values themselves. It’s been beautiful to witness this shift-to see how, when we live in alignment with our own truth, it can create a ripple effect that gently inspires others. May this be a reminder that you are your own most powerful guide, and that true healing often begins with honoring the wisdom within.
Martha Beck is one of the wisest peope I know. Her teachings literally saved my life, and her kindness and vision showed me the way back home to my true self. Thank you for inviting her to your wonderful platform, dear Andrew! May many people heal because of this.
Andrew, Andrew, Andrew. I have no words...I've seen a side of you that only made me respect you more than I already did. Martha has a way of bringing that out in people, but the person has to be open. You are open. Thanks for this. I loved everything about it.
Please remember the text below: That was, without a doubt, the most authentic, powerful, and resonant conversation I have had the privilege of listening to in as long as I can remember. Thank you, Dr. Huberman, for not only beautifully facilitating that conversation, but also making it so much richer by sharing your own experiences, challenges, and growth. And thank you to Dr. Beck for being such a beacon of light, hope, and authenticity. I can't thank you both enough for this conversation and the clarity it has brought to my life already. I've been looking for an epiphany or breakthrough during what has been a bit of a challenging stretch, and I believe you both just provided it. Thank you both for everything you do.
One of the greatest podcast episodes ever , so engaging and real, and it's really great and refreshing to see this side of Andrew Huberman and Dr Martha Beck is just a real gem❤❤❤
Andrew, I have been watching your podcast for at least 3 years, highly recommended by a client. I absolutely love it! As a wellness practioner, I eat this stuff up! It's my passion and my vocation.❤This interview in particular compelled me to comment. Your kindness and sincerity to Dr. Martha was so pronounced. I could feel you using the time with her to connect to some of your own difficulties and it was inspiring and uplifting. Many men lack vulnerability and your willingness to open up, share feelings and engage this way was truly admirable. I hope you continue to share this side of you. And more importantly, self-preservation and self-love.....for ALL of us! 🥰🥰 Thank You!
Only 15min in, and I already have to say that Dr's guidance thru the perfect day exercise is incredibly helpful....she clarified some elements I didn't even realize I'd understood inaccurately.... it's not the "perfect, ideal day", it's "an ordinary day in your perfect life"....HUGE difference with this adjustment alone, both in the visualization and the story formatting.....so helpful to hear her coaching in real time 👍👍
Andrew is really coming into his own and increasingly showing his authentic self on the podcast. We're here for the science, but we are also here for you Dr. Huberman! I love the integration of evidence based protocols with lived experience and creative expression.
This is the first podcast I have ever seen in one go end to end. It is so incredible to hear you both talk about relationships, eastern knowledge, truth and love. I was hooked. Dr. Martha Beck is an incredible person, I have learned so much about myself and about the world from this interview. Thank you so much for this video.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable s0urce here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, blizmyco. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
This is one the best interviews I’ve listened to in a longtime. I spent my entire Life always gave more and I have two dogs and alone. I am much happier and healthier. ❤
This episode made me feel all the feelings. Dr. Martha Beck is a true gem. Wow. Best podcast ever. Being vulnerable is the way. Being truthful is the way. Integrity is the way.
Martha’s been a huge influence in my life as well, and it was a life-changing experience to spend time with her at her African STAR retreat in June. I’m just so thrilled that the two of you sat down for this incredible conversation. (and I just *knew* you were on ‘The Team’ she’s long spoken of! ❤️) I do believe there’s hope for humanity if we open more conversations like this one. Thank you Andrew for bringing her to your audience, and for nurturing these kinds of conversations. It’s beautiful to see ❤
I needed to come to TH-cam just to write this comment Dr.Huberman throughout the years you have interviewed so many amazing people who have shared so much valuable information, but I need to thank you for inviting and introducing us to this amazing soul. I will definitely be watching Dr. Beck’s podcast again. Only this interview and Dr.Lembeke have compel me to come watch instead of listen. Thank you for creating this wonderful channel.
I was particularly touched by how Dr. Huberman is able to embrace his vulnerability and talk openly-though without unnecessary scandal-about his own journeys and the things he wants to improve in his life. It’s an excellent example for us all: you can be intelligent, brilliant, and successful, yet still be humble and openly acknowledge that you haven’t mastered all aspects of your life. His approach to continuously pursuing personal growth is truly inspiring. Regarding topics I’d like Dr. Huberman to cover in his podcast, I would love to see an episode (or even a series of episodes) related to pets, especially dogs. Why do we love them so much? What happens in our brains when we see or think about our dogs? What were the co-evolutionary mechanisms that produced this special relationship between dogs and humans? What are the scientifically proven benefits of owning dogs? Are there any drawbacks?
This conversation was and will be life changing for me. When Martha shared her experience during surgery .. "This is how you should be feeling ALL the time" ... ❤❤❤
There was a really special quality to this episode. It felt like being allowed to listen to a conversation between two friends. The mutual respect, enjoyment of one another's company, and compassion for one another was palpable in this episode. It felt like you were both free to just be genuinely yourselves and to enjoy the moment, and it gave this episode a really great emotional quality that I'm still just soaking in and appreciating. This episode was awesome, thank you both.
I LOVE ALL Andrew Huberman's podcast AND ALL other podcasts he takes part in - BUT - NONE have been even similar to this one ! ! ! I'm so grateful that I happened to come by this one ! ! !
Dear Dr Huberman, I wait for your episodes weekly on Spotify, today I listened to this episode twice on Spotify, but I had to watch the video on TH-cam, because I wanted to see the facial expressions, the happiness and vulnerability that are heard in the conversation, they are so beautiful, I wanted to see the reflection of your voices on images. Thanks for this episode. Saludos de Chile
What a powerful ending. This whole episode gave me goosebumps and so many "mental orgasms" -Thank you both much for gifting us this enlightening and healing wisdom!
Dr. Huberman, at risk of coming off like a fan-girl (woman, actually) I want to tell you how much I appreciate you. I just got back from my morning walk during which I finished listening to this episode with Martha Beck, whom I also follow and deeply appreciate. I first heard you when my oldest friend ("since we were born!" we say) recommended your podcast to me a couple of years ago. The first episode I heard was the one on nicotine and since then I have been hooked . On nicotine. (Kidding.) I texted my since-born friend telling her that I thought I was in love. The brains get me. I am wildly impressed by your rigor, commitment, enthusiasm, and curiosity. What inspired me to "leave a comment" (and I don't recall doing this before, in any case) was the additional humanity and vulnerability you showed on this one. And I could relate to a lot of what you said about relationships - and a few other things, too. I started to feel a pull toward reaching out to say something, but you clinched it with the pigeons. I love them too, and most people find this quirky (But I don't care!)! I lived in NYC for a while, and spent a lot of time observing them (and writing haiku about them, as it were.) Keep doing what you're doing, and whomever you end up finding, breathing softly next to you in your future mountain home (even if it's just another bulldog) will be a lucky lady (or dog), no doubt. With gratitude, Sarah
One of the most important lessons I've learned in my life, and what Martha reinforces in this podcast, is that we have zero control over someone else's emotions or emotional reactions. As I have slowly let myself open up and express my own needs I find that those around me might be disappointed or upset, but if real love is there they will eventually come to terms with their own feelings and see me in a new light. It does change the relationship, but in my experience it's for the better. Thank you for this episode!
This episode itself is proof that there is always hope for humanity - because humans like you guys exist to have this conversation. You always thank us for our interest in science, thank you Andrew for your interest in humanity x
I did not expect to enjoy being a fly on the wall for this one as much as I did. It kept coming up in my feed and i kept brushing it aside. I absolutely loved it. I am male, 50 , and in recovery from booze and oxy for about 9 months now; a new personal best as, at around 8 months, i start to think i have it under control and try to pull off the " i can have just one " trick. For anyone suffering a similar delusion, it boils down to understanding that i cannot have the first one. Ever. Big up Huberman Lab Crew! Bless 🙏📿✌️☯️🌷❤️🕉🙏
Congratulations on your progress 🙌 Not in the same league, but I’m 2 months off a horrendous 2.5 year taper off antidepressants. Every day that passes represents success, for me and you! 🥳
@@lyndarandall189 hi thanks for asking ☺️ I still have good days and bad days, but my brain is definitely working better without the ADs 👍 I was prescribed Citalopram and what I desperately needed (but didn’t realise) was HRT, as I was in peri menopause. It just made me feel much worse, but I mistakenly thought it was ‘my anxiety’ intensifying. Horrendous stuff, and yet they prescribe it to children!
@@skippy7208 Hi- YEP! I have been thinking about maybe just need HRT-esp. testosterone, but that's a scary journey as well. Really would need a very educated, EXPERIENCED, practitioner for that ....smh, healthcare system is getting worse as I type this....Stay Strong...
Just put my Doggo, my Best Friend to sleep after 14 years together. It was august 8th. Start listening to this podcast and of course they talk about dogs. And i thought im going crazy with my loss. But its actually nice to know Andrew And Martha hard similar thoughts even a few years after their pet passings. And as always, thanks for all your work, mr. Huberman.
The degree to which you make yourself vulnerable, AH, invites us all to do the same. Your guest today was delightful, joyful, smart; I realize I have work to do (in many areas of my life) but thanks to your open hearted discussion, look forward to that work.
Andrew, this, hands down, has been the most beautiful and transformational podcast I have watched/listned to ever. And I consume probably 4 a week, every week, for at least 10 years. I will admit that I had some recoil to a handful of things that Martha said and yet her explanation of the compassionate witness and having and attuning to integrity in the body, I was able to uncover deep information about my values and beliefs and now have a stepping stone to learning more about myself. Your candid honesty, her authenticity, and your palpable connection with each other were, by themselves, informative and healing. I am quite fond of her and will look much deeper into her work. Might I suggest looking into Dr. Joe Dispenza's and collegues research on the magnetic and electrical nature of heart-brain coherence. His work talks a TON about the light, the "home" and the integrity that Martha speaks about. He also teaches breathing techniques, whicb obviously you know a TON about. Bless you Andrew. Truly, you are a lighthouse for many people.
Andrew, what a once in lifetime podcast! The connection and beyond the words understanding between the two of you are so beautiful! Thank you for showing your vulnerability for other men to see it's ok to do it. And your analysis of punk rock and its inclusiveness is spot on! I love it too❤ I'll never look at you the same way again as, I believe , I've seen the most authentic version of you. 🙌
Thank you Andrew and Martha! I resonate with this conversation immensely. I experienced a TBI with 6 skull fractures and 2 brain bleeds from an assault last summer, where I saw the light mentioned. I was unconscious for 3 days. During that time I visited a realm my soul knew but I did not, where I met God Osiris who offered me an invaluable necklace I did not take. Since then I have experienced heightened intuition, immense gratitude mindset shift, and can see energies, and more. I have gotten to meet several of my spiritual guides and seen them as blue silhouettes. The change in me has caused my marriage to fall apart, and that’s okay. New beginnings! I also resonate with the “feels like a game and this is just my avatar” I feel it daily now. When Martha said “you are here to find your team and tell them they are here as healers” my whole body got goosebumps, and felt as if someone placed a hand on my left cheek at the moment she said that. I am on your team!
The best way to describe my mind since my injury is like my higher self is guiding me, and sending me downloads from the universe that light the path I now walk upon. A few months ago I was “told” I am an energy healer meant to heal others and teach them how to do the same for themselves and others. This conversation only amplified that message. Thank you both so much! I am grateful!
I love this podcast!! I also have a child with Down Syndrome, and she is honestly one of my greatest blessings! She helps me slow down and see the joy in literally every thing! She also expresses so much love toward me, I can't help but to feel loved by God...He sent me the most amazing child I could have ever asked for!
Thank you having Dr. Beck on! Love her!! I married the love of my life last year 3/23/23 in Hawaii (the most magical week of my life). One of our vows was “Do you both promise to take responsibility for your own happiness”💙💙💙 Traditional wedding vows are garbage😂
@@MarionMM Thanks for your kindness!! 💙💙💙 Have the day and the life you deserve! I can only imagine how spectacular it must be, based on our brief interaction here🤣😘
Listened on Spotify, watched once here and just about to watch again! In less than 24h. Thanks Andrew for being true to yourself! Your laugh after “better, batter and better”, and “going to hell” was delighted to hear, even more to watch! This is why every episode makes your podcast even better!
Got to the end and I am compelled to comment twice. Laughter is a very accurate reflex to honesty and the joy of truth. This was a sincerely very genuine, brave, fun, and wall breaking conversation, Dr. Huberman. Bravo to you both!
so cute when he said talking to martha beck was in his "perfect day". i shed a tear. so wholesome. I know I'm going to like this episode. (listening to huberman on a rainy monday morning is part of my perfect day)
I love that this is an extremely vulnerable conversation between 2 human beings, talking about their experiences, and being completely honest with themselves!
OH MY GOD! This is like science meets psychology meets philosophy meets sophistication and curiosity I love this curious and honest exchange between these wonderful people. I didnt know what to expect and now it is one of my favorite Hubermanlabs podcast! The thing that she mentions about seeing in a child’s eye is what i have ways noticed about seeing in Andrew’s eyes but i couldn’t explain it. He has the eyes of a curious child!
I enjoy all the Huberman episodes I listen to but this episode is on a whole other level. I got so much out of it, I’ve listened to it twice this week! Thank you for introducing me to the amazing Dr Martha Beck, I’m instantly a fan. I’ve been working with a coach recently and am on that hard path of acknowledging patterns in my relationships and coming back to my true self, and hearing this was so perfectly timed. I am the fly!! It makes so much sense about how I feel so restricted in relationships, it’s because I give myself away. Such a lightbulb moment for me and it’s given me more breadcrumbs to follow to support me in coming back to my essential self. Thank you for being so open, and I loved the moments of laughter ❤
What a stupendous meaningful conversation between two beautiful souls! And wow! First time I've heard of Dr. Beck and after listening to that I'm smitten! Brilliant, funny, silly, kind, compassionate - she glows with a very discernible energy that draws one in like a moth to a flame.
I can see I am not the only one that found this particular episode very special. It is very refreshing when people show their vulnerability and realness the way you and Dr. Martha Beck did in this episode. Beautiful. Thank You for all that you do, it’s very much appreciated 🙏
Dr. Beck might be my favorite guest on your podcast. That’s saying a lot, as you have had many truly wonderful and/or accomplished people. And I admit, I did not know who she was before this episode. But I was immediately drawn in, and knew right away she was going to be someone I would never forget. I was one of your early subscribers, as I was following you even before the podcast. I have listened to every episode at least once, and I listen as soon as they come out. This one was truly special. Thank you.
Thanks Martha and Andrew for making me feel like it is okay to listen to your true self, your authentic self and being in alignment with your authentic self sets you free. That when I feel this isn’t right for me, I have to honor it. I must honor it to truly experience life and my best self for others. Like lifting the veil…. I agree with her, that we truly don’t know what the afterlife will be. No religion can answer that and that is okay to admit. This conversation really shed light on our purpose on the planet in so many ways and how to know you are on the right path. The idea of meeting feelings of suffering with self compassion that will allow you to show love and compassion for others is something I will work towards and this conversation gave me the blueprint. I will definitely read more from Dr. Beck! Thanks for the introduction, Andrew and for your radical openness Dr. Beck!
I’m so happy and grateful you were able to be more vulnerable for this. You mentioned the untrue judgements placed on you and others in the spotlight. I think this type of vulnerability is a beautiful way to show your truth.
This is so Awesome!!! I’m a Martha Beck certified coach, I had also long benefit from all her teachings, had changed my life, and that of those around me. Love you guys!!! ❤️❤️Thanks for doing all your work for improving the lives of soooo many people ☺️
This will change my life. I am speechless and thoughtless (?) after watching this. I have been suffering for years, self helping myself, which has its pros and cons, lol, but this video helped to put everything into place. This is the first time I've listened to your podcast. The short of Martha talking about suffering brought me here. Thank you Sooooo much. ❤❤❤
@Em-su6iq I normally never react, but I somehow feel like I need to right now. I really resonate with your comment. I have been suffering for years as well, and for me so many puzzle pieces have come together after doing a course that combines a lot of what Martha speaks of. It’s called Be your Own Medicine, by Rebecca Tolin. I highly recommend it. I hope this might help you as well on your journey. (Not affiliated with her/not getting anything out of this, I just want to help other people who are suffering and searching for answers).
The JOY and LOVE shared in this episode is unparalleled 🎉 Thank you both SO MUCH for being yourselves and sharing authentically! My heart swells with belonging, inspiration and admiration 🎉
This is one of my favorite episodes of this podcast EVER. To be honest I didn't know who Martha Beck was! I'm so glad to know her thanks to you Andrew!
After watching hundreds of hours of you talk over the last few years and garnering immeasurable value this episode in particular I’m beyond grateful for. It’s so refreshing and inspiring to see this type of discussion here. Both of you so staunch in your efforts to be true to your experience and reconcile science and our cultural attitudes with the more spiritual and mysterious aspects of existence. It’s reassuring for those of us who have in our lives few or none who are willing to open their heart and mind to experience the world in this way. Thank you also Andrew for being so honest and vulnerable. Sharing parts of yourself with the world so openly takes courage and it empowers others especially men to see how these traits are not opposed to masculinity. I also hope you know your idiosyncrasies are very endearing. Though I don’t really know you, it always brings me joy learning about you as person while you teach. From the bottom of my heart thank you to you and your whole team for what you do ♡
First video I watch to start my day, hearing the visualization practice at the start confirms I will be following my dreams and moving to the Colorado mountains all the way from South Florida where I have lived my whole life. I tried the practice and had a very similar vision laying with my Minature Pinscher (no bull dogs here). Thank you for these videos Huberman.
This was without a once of doubt, the best podcast or even the video that ive seen online that most resonated with me.... beyond recognition. SInce the "Mind blowing and Does not compute moment" ... i knew i was in for something beautiful. I have ADHD and feeling emotions on people and energy is something that ive been blessed with . I have a diferent path but i was alsol blessed with a bit of that "Light" moment, and the feeling of peace you get is astonishing. Thank you Dr. Huberman, for the work and dedication to this venture of podcasting. Im gratefull to you and Dr Martha for sharing the stories and personal life on this video
This was by far the most genuine and honest podcast episode I've ever got the chance to listen too. Thank you so much for showing vulnerability and appreciation for one another in ever second of the interview. I will definitely look into Dr. Martha Becks work and read all her books. She's one of a kind. Thanks for inviting her! ♡
Thank you both (and both teams) for this wonderful podcast. I watched this episode after finishing the latest Modern Wisdom episode with you Dr. Huberman, and was intrigued by the "perfect day exercise". I was thrilled it was the first thing you covered. I've read Martha's books (two of them so far) but after being walked through it with your perfect day I was finally able to do it properly myself. What an experience! It has brought peace to me in areas that have been so deeply painful. I feel a renewed hope that, prior to this exercise, I had acknowledged as gone. Thank you. 🙏❤
Just finished this podcast and came here to tell you that this was FAR AND AWAY the best episode I’ve listened to. I became an avid follower after a friend sent me your alcohol episode. Just incredible light. I’ll follow up in a few years if this ends up being true, but it feels like my life has changed significantly.
This is something else Andrew!! I think I am speaking for thousands of other listeners when i say - we LOVED seeing this side of yours. Of course the info and knowledge you provide on other eps are imp too, but this right here is what has the power over anything to heal the world!!! ufff thank you so much for introducing Dr Martha to us, gosh such a GEM!! I hope you bring her to the show once again
Dr. Beck is so empathetic and compassionate that it made Andrew share a lot, much more than usual😊 Great conversation! Made me cry when she was describing compassion to self🤍
My favorite podcast I have ever listened to. I never leave comments on anything. This is the first. I listen on Spotify and after listening multiple times and sharing with everyone I know, I came on to TH-cam to watch it. Thank you.
Such a 'raw' beautifully 'honest' conversation that brings so much TRUTH❣️ It is incredibly inspiring to see the Huberman evolution... from left brain dominate persona now integrating right brain wholeness 💞 Blessings Dr Martha Beck for creating this space to witness 🙏
Andrew-- THANK YOU for this. I have been listening to your podcast from day one and of all the incredible episodes and helpful information and fascinating guests you've given us, this episode spoke to me and has brought me a lot of comfort. It let me let go of guilt I had when I chose self-care and preservation over a failing marriage. Thank you for all you do.
I was surprised to see that you were interviewing Martha Beck, but wow, I absolutely LOVED this conversation!!! 😍 Thank you both for having it and for being willing to be so open. You covered so much that I really needed to hear🙏❤️🙏
This episode completely won me over and was AMAZING, raw, real, and actionable! THANK YOU Andrew Huberman and Martha Beck for your honesty and courage!! Keep going!
I shed several tears during this episode - thanks to both you and Dr. Beck for leading this discussion with such open hearts. You made me think of my bully who passed on in 2020. I loved him so much and love any opportunity to remember him. There are so many other things I can comment about this but I will say this: what a wonderful episode and I'll be looking into Dr. Beck!! Thank you!
This is one of my favorite conversations I’ve listened to in a long time. Thank you so much for bringing Martha’s wisdom and brilliance to all of us. She is one of my true heroes and listening to her is the medicine this recovering people pleasure needs. Your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable in this conversation is also a gift. Thank you.
Dear Andrew, I’ve been watching your podcast for a while but this one touched my heart and moved something deeply in me. I am marvelled by you both and what you can reach through your podcast. Please continue your journey to light us up. Love you!❤
Up till this episode, Andrew Huberman’s podcast was my number 1 learning tool. I accidentally tuned into this episode this morning cos I lost my way and needed something good to listen to, and it saved my day. I’m very sure, the light I followed after will change my life as well. Thank you so much❤
I came back here to say…. After listening to this I started reading North Star and Martha Beck is remarkable in her depth and connection…she connects and communicates so deftly. I can see reason for Huberman’s admiration and it’s very cool to see this side of him here. I’m paused.
Dear Andrew, I have arrived to a moment in my life where I absolutely want to lead with freedom and joy. This episode has given me so much joy!!! I respect and I am deeply grateful for your work. You and Martha have inspired me to continue in my path even though I have no idea where it would lead. I will try the ideal/perfect day exercise!!! Thank you for your vulnerability and openness to share your heart. I am healing from a very painful breakup but listening to you both gives me great hope on the way I look forward to experience love. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! con toda mi alma y corazón gracias infinitas.
Appreciate you Huberman. Thank you for introducing me to Dr. Beck. I could listen to you both all day. Just bought 2 of her books and Anna’s Dopamine Nation ❤
Andrew, I so enjoy your podcast. You have amazing guests. This episode was INCREDIBLE!!!!!! I love the content and how vulnerable you were willing to be. I can’t express enough how much I appreciated this conversation and how well timed it is in my life at the moment. The episode kept me engaged as I drove down the CA coast. Thank you Thank you!!!❤

Thank you so much for this conversation with Martha Beck! I usually don't listen to/view your podcast when I'm low on energy, because I really want to get all the info, but today I did. I listened to all of it in one go and while listening and now I feel energized and at peace. I've listened to so many hours of your content and interviews, but this conversation was really special.
I feel strangely touched by it (goosebumps!) , which is not normal for my science oriented mind. Thank you both for being so open and vulnerable. I hope you both live long and prosper in all of your endeavors
A delightful conversation. I loved it. Thanks from Austria!

I was at the edge of my seat this whole episode while watching it on TV. I cannot believe we reached a point where we're talking about this openly, and on a neuroscience podcast! Humanity is going somewhere exciting and awesome very soon and I am so excited to witness it and feel it.
Agreed! Me too! I applaud Andrew's willingness to go into uncharted territory with his full humanity!

Hi Andrew...I live in Pakistan...in a very small village where even electricity is not proper..mobile signals are dependent on luck...but I am blessed to be student of professor at Stanford..may God bless you with your endeavors..I really appreciate the way you work for spreading best knowledge available to you...lots of prays..

Nice one bravo 👏. Greetings from Greece
Andrew, if you're seeing this, I want to thank you for this particular episode. I've been a regular consumer of your podcast for long and when that ugliness online happened I was outraged and quite disgusted at how people were treating you. The fact that you continue to bring yourself with equal or more love, MORE vulnerability, MORE Openness and display an entirely unconditional dedication to no-cost education for people like me...... this makes you one of my personal heroes. I've always marveled at your knowledge and your teaching method and to learn that you're a top person too just makes it all so much more meaningful for me. Big thanks always. Taking notes always.
Best comment.
I second that... appreciate you Andrew 🫶
Yes!!! I agree 💯
Could not agree more ❤
Bravo! Both to you who write this comment and to YOU Andrew ☀️🇩🇰👌!
"Let me fall... the one I will become will catch me!" - stunningly poigniant. Thank you both for taking the time to do this interview. What a beautiful human connection to witness.
Do you know which song they're talking about?
@@camilaescudero1226 it apparently is a poem Martha's son had either refered to or had written.
❤
We saw a different part of Andrew today! More open, more engaged and more at ease… love the frequent laughter!❤
Yeah, they had a great connection and I feel like he felt safe to open up to her and us ❤
I was thinking the same thing, he made me think of Ferdinand the bull.
Agree, I was going to say, he's opening up a lot more, like he said, essential self, less rational.
it was clear he was very excited to be speaking with her, if this podcast taught us anything, he's still "just a guy"
They need to go get a room.
This single podcast is now my favorite 2.75 hours of the internet!
I am blown away by the connection between Andrew and Martha. The podcast has opened up new pathways for me . Thank you
I know that’s right.
I totally agree
Andrew!!! Thank you for reminding me how amazing, intelligent and inspiring Martha Beck is. My respect for YOU grows and grows as you continue to provide the highest quality education for our entire Beings.
Thank you for sharing your heart, mind and soul with us.
It’s an honor to be here.🌻
I also saw the connection. 😊
My FAVORITE podcast yet! it was so incredible to see Huberman being so vulnerable, free, open, funny - it really seemed like he wasn't worry about judgement. he seemed sooooo comfortable with Dr. Beck which is just a testament to how special she must be! such a smart woman!
Martha Beck is the most wittiest one. With all her heart committed to wellness of life.
I'm a huge fan Andrew. And as 45 year old Christian man with a very sketchy, violent, and drug filled past, I just want to say this. I've never heard of Dr Beck before playing this video, and I will never forget her name henceforth. What an amazing woman! I can relate with almost every angle she came from, and almost every turn the this conversation took correlated with my experience in my own life and growth and healing. Amazing amazing amazing. Keep doing what you're doing. It is incredibly beneficial.
I can definitely agree with you on that, this podcast has introduced me to so many new people whose name and wisdom will forever be etched into my mind. God bless you.
Yes yes yes!! Thank you ✨💛
I have watched this 3x. I grew up Mormon and I have a son with Down syndrome. I’ve loved Martha since Expecting Adam.
She is so authentic it scares me although it feels like utter liberation.
Thank you for having her as a guest!
Martha enabled me to leave a very long unhappy marraige 12 years ago. She’s such an authentic soul. Im now very careful about who I let into my life but I’m never lonely. Through their podcasts Martha and Rowan keep me connected with my true self. My relationships are better and I am finally happy in my own skin. Finding Martha was like coming home.
So refreshing to hear this conversation on Huberman Lab Podcast with Dr. Martha Beck. The idea of listening to and trusting one’s body, embracing suffering, and aligning with personal truth through feeling-rather than external expectations-has always resonated deeply with me. Yet, when I’ve shared the importance of these values, they’ve often been challenged, leaving me questioning, even resisting, and at times feeling wrong for choosing this path.
Each time I ignored my own inner guidance, the consequence was profound: pain that manifested physically, emotionally, and psychologically. Despite seeking help, no doctor or therapist could pinpoint a solution beyond identifying my nervous system as stuck in freeze.
But through presence, self-compassion, and the courage to trust myself, I’m finally beginning to orient and heal. Along the way, I’ve noticed friends and others feel encouraged to explore these values themselves. It’s been beautiful to witness this shift-to see how, when we live in alignment with our own truth, it can create a ripple effect that gently inspires others.
May this be a reminder that you are your own most powerful guide, and that true healing often begins with honoring the wisdom within.
Martha Beck is one of the wisest peope I know. Her teachings literally saved my life, and her kindness and vision showed me the way back home to my true self. Thank you for inviting her to your wonderful platform, dear Andrew! May many people heal because of this.
Andrew, Andrew, Andrew. I have no words...I've seen a side of you that only made me respect you more than I already did. Martha has a way of bringing that out in people, but the person has to be open. You are open. Thanks for this. I loved everything about it.
Please remember the text below:
That was, without a doubt, the most authentic, powerful, and resonant conversation I have had the privilege of listening to in as long as I can remember. Thank you, Dr. Huberman, for not only beautifully facilitating that conversation, but also making it so much richer by sharing your own experiences, challenges, and growth. And thank you to Dr. Beck for being such a beacon of light, hope, and authenticity. I can't thank you both enough for this conversation and the clarity it has brought to my life already. I've been looking for an epiphany or breakthrough during what has been a bit of a challenging stretch, and I believe you both just provided it. Thank you both for everything you do.
Yes yes yes!! ✨💛
Mankind is progressing towards it's own maturity. Thank you for being the pathfinders towards it's realisation of oneness of mankind.
One of the greatest podcast episodes ever , so engaging and real, and it's really great and refreshing to see this side of Andrew Huberman and Dr Martha Beck is just a real gem❤❤❤
AGREED! My favorite ever!
Did they get room after this?
Andrew, I have been watching your podcast for at least 3 years, highly recommended by a client. I absolutely love it! As a wellness practioner, I eat this stuff up! It's my passion and my vocation.❤This interview in particular compelled me to comment. Your kindness and sincerity to Dr. Martha was so pronounced. I could feel you using the time with her to connect to some of your own difficulties and it was inspiring and uplifting. Many men lack vulnerability and your willingness to open up, share feelings and engage this way was truly admirable. I hope you continue to share this side of you. And more importantly, self-preservation and self-love.....for ALL of us! 🥰🥰 Thank You!
Thank you 🙏 for appreciating Huberman
Only 15min in, and I already have to say that Dr's guidance thru the perfect day exercise is incredibly helpful....she clarified some elements I didn't even realize I'd understood inaccurately.... it's not the "perfect, ideal day", it's "an ordinary day in your perfect life"....HUGE difference with this adjustment alone, both in the visualization and the story formatting.....so helpful to hear her coaching in real time 👍👍
Completely agree with you. Excellent
This episode was on a whole different level-so honest, genuine and beautiful. Thank you both.
Andrew is really coming into his own and increasingly showing his authentic self on the podcast. We're here for the science, but we are also here for you Dr. Huberman! I love the integration of evidence based protocols with lived experience and creative expression.
Authentic self? He claims to give all of himself in a relationship and yet it's well known he cheated on 6 women at the same time!
@@ametrineambrosia4929 Did you come here to talk down about him? It's more like a rumor not a well known fact...
This was my favorite conversation of all times, and I think I'll return to it every time I start feeling lost again. Thank you so much. Love you both
This is the first podcast I have ever seen in one go end to end. It is so incredible to hear you both talk about relationships, eastern knowledge, truth and love. I was hooked. Dr. Martha Beck is an incredible person, I have learned so much about myself and about the world from this interview. Thank you so much for this video.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable s0urce here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, blizmyco. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is. blizmyco
Microdosing helped me get out of the pit of my worst depressive episode, a three year long episode, enough to start working on my mental health.
This is one the best interviews I’ve listened to in a longtime. I spent my entire Life always gave more and I have two dogs and alone. I am much happier and healthier. ❤
This episode made me feel all the feelings. Dr. Martha Beck is a true gem. Wow. Best podcast ever. Being vulnerable is the way. Being truthful is the way. Integrity is the way.
Don’t de value kitten and be honourable 👍
Fell in love with Martha immediately. Stoked to look into her work further. She’s a gem!
Martha’s been a huge influence in my life as well, and it was a life-changing experience to spend time with her at her African STAR retreat in June. I’m just so thrilled that the two of you sat down for this incredible conversation. (and I just *knew* you were on ‘The Team’ she’s long spoken of! ❤️) I do believe there’s hope for humanity if we open more conversations like this one. Thank you Andrew for bringing her to your audience, and for nurturing these kinds of conversations. It’s beautiful to see ❤
I needed to come to TH-cam just to write this comment
Dr.Huberman throughout the years you have interviewed so many amazing people who have shared so much valuable information, but I need to thank you for inviting and introducing us to this amazing soul. I will definitely be watching Dr. Beck’s podcast again. Only this interview and Dr.Lembeke have compel me to come watch instead of listen. Thank you for creating this wonderful channel.
I was particularly touched by how Dr. Huberman is able to embrace his vulnerability and talk openly-though without unnecessary scandal-about his own journeys and the things he wants to improve in his life. It’s an excellent example for us all: you can be intelligent, brilliant, and successful, yet still be humble and openly acknowledge that you haven’t mastered all aspects of your life. His approach to continuously pursuing personal growth is truly inspiring.
Regarding topics I’d like Dr. Huberman to cover in his podcast, I would love to see an episode (or even a series of episodes) related to pets, especially dogs. Why do we love them so much? What happens in our brains when we see or think about our dogs? What were the co-evolutionary mechanisms that produced this special relationship between dogs and humans? What are the scientifically proven benefits of owning dogs? Are there any drawbacks?
When you’re trying to envision the perfect day, but you realize you already live it 🥺. I need to work on being more present. ❤
I was actually just thinking that. 🥰
This conversation was and will be life changing for me. When Martha shared her experience during surgery .. "This is how you should be feeling ALL the time" ... ❤❤❤
There was a really special quality to this episode. It felt like being allowed to listen to a conversation between two friends. The mutual respect, enjoyment of one another's company, and compassion for one another was palpable in this episode. It felt like you were both free to just be genuinely yourselves and to enjoy the moment, and it gave this episode a really great emotional quality that I'm still just soaking in and appreciating. This episode was awesome, thank you both.
I LOVE ALL Andrew Huberman's podcast AND ALL other podcasts he takes part in - BUT - NONE have been even similar to this one ! ! ! I'm so grateful that I happened to come by this one ! ! !
Dr Martha comes across super well integrated. She still has a childlike charm that I’ve seen with so many
Dear Dr Huberman, I wait for your episodes weekly on Spotify, today I listened to this episode twice on Spotify, but I had to watch the video on TH-cam, because I wanted to see the facial expressions, the happiness and vulnerability that are heard in the conversation, they are so beautiful, I wanted to see the reflection of your voices on images. Thanks for this episode. Saludos de Chile
Omg this I did exactly the same!! 😊
What a powerful ending. This whole episode gave me goosebumps and so many "mental orgasms" -Thank you both much for gifting us this enlightening and healing wisdom!
Dr. Huberman, at risk of coming off like a fan-girl (woman, actually) I want to tell you how much I appreciate you. I just got back from my morning walk during which I finished listening to this episode with Martha Beck, whom I also follow and deeply appreciate. I first heard you when my oldest friend ("since we were born!" we say) recommended your podcast to me a couple of years ago. The first episode I heard was the one on nicotine and since then I have been hooked . On nicotine. (Kidding.) I texted my since-born friend telling her that I thought I was in love. The brains get me. I am wildly impressed by your rigor, commitment, enthusiasm, and curiosity. What inspired me to "leave a comment" (and I don't recall doing this before, in any case) was the additional humanity and vulnerability you showed on this one. And I could relate to a lot of what you said about relationships - and a few other things, too. I started to feel a pull toward reaching out to say something, but you clinched it with the pigeons. I love them too, and most people find this quirky (But I don't care!)! I lived in NYC for a while, and spent a lot of time observing them (and writing haiku about them, as it were.) Keep doing what you're doing, and whomever you end up finding, breathing softly next to you in your future mountain home (even if it's just another bulldog) will be a lucky lady (or dog), no doubt. With gratitude, Sarah
Well put Sarah, - thanks
One of the most important lessons I've learned in my life, and what Martha reinforces in this podcast, is that we have zero control over someone else's emotions or emotional reactions. As I have slowly let myself open up and express my own needs I find that those around me might be disappointed or upset, but if real love is there they will eventually come to terms with their own feelings and see me in a new light. It does change the relationship, but in my experience it's for the better. Thank you for this episode!
Not gonna lie, I wasn’t excited at first. Mind blown. Thank you Dr. Huberman and Dr. Martha
This episode itself is proof that there is always hope for humanity - because humans like you guys exist to have this conversation. You always thank us for our interest in science, thank you Andrew for your interest in humanity x
❤best comment on the board
I did not expect to enjoy being a fly on the wall for this one as much as I did. It kept coming up in my feed and i kept brushing it aside. I absolutely loved it. I am male, 50 , and in recovery from booze and oxy for about 9 months now; a new personal best as, at around 8 months, i start to think i have it under control and try to pull off the " i can have just one " trick. For anyone suffering a similar delusion, it boils down to understanding that i cannot have the first one. Ever. Big up Huberman Lab Crew! Bless 🙏📿✌️☯️🌷❤️🕉🙏
Congratulations on your progress 🙌 Not in the same league, but I’m 2 months off a horrendous 2.5 year taper off antidepressants. Every day that passes represents success, for me and you! 🥳
@@skippy7208 Hey, you too. Life on Lifes terms is the most gentle path long-term. Bless 🙏🪷📿🌷☯️❤️🕉
@@skippy7208 Hi- How are you feeling coming off? As a psychiatric RN I believed in their worth, now, not so much....
@@lyndarandall189 hi thanks for asking ☺️ I still have good days and bad days, but my brain is definitely working better without the ADs 👍 I was prescribed Citalopram and what I desperately needed (but didn’t realise) was HRT, as I was in peri menopause. It just made me feel much worse, but I mistakenly thought it was ‘my anxiety’ intensifying. Horrendous stuff, and yet they prescribe it to children!
@@skippy7208 Hi- YEP! I have been thinking about maybe just need HRT-esp. testosterone, but that's a scary journey as well. Really would need a very educated, EXPERIENCED, practitioner for that ....smh, healthcare system is getting worse as I type this....Stay Strong...
Just put my Doggo, my Best Friend to sleep after 14 years together. It was august 8th. Start listening to this podcast and of course they talk about dogs. And i thought im going crazy with my loss. But its actually nice to know Andrew And Martha hard similar thoughts even a few years after their pet passings. And as always, thanks for all your work, mr. Huberman.
Your dogs body has left, but the shared love will never leave
The degree to which you make yourself vulnerable, AH, invites us all to do the same. Your guest today was delightful, joyful, smart; I realize I have work to do (in many areas of my life) but thanks to your open hearted discussion, look forward to that work.
❤ Appreciate 👍 your thoughtful comment with love from Lagos Nigeria
Lovely phrasing and I echo all of your sentiments!
Why call it work?
This podcast hasn't ceased to amaze me. You just don't know what kind of conversation will unfold and develop :)
Andrew, this, hands down, has been the most beautiful and transformational podcast I have watched/listned to ever. And I consume probably 4 a week, every week, for at least 10 years. I will admit that I had some recoil to a handful of things that Martha said and yet her explanation of the compassionate witness and having and attuning to integrity in the body, I was able to uncover deep information about my values and beliefs and now have a stepping stone to learning more about myself. Your candid honesty, her authenticity, and your palpable connection with each other were, by themselves, informative and healing. I am quite fond of her and will look much deeper into her work. Might I suggest looking into Dr. Joe Dispenza's and collegues research on the magnetic and electrical nature of heart-brain coherence. His work talks a TON about the light, the "home" and the integrity that Martha speaks about. He also teaches breathing techniques, whicb obviously you know a TON about.
Bless you Andrew. Truly, you are a lighthouse for many people.
Andrew, what a once in lifetime podcast! The connection and beyond the words understanding between the two of you are so beautiful! Thank you for showing your vulnerability for other men to see it's ok to do it. And your analysis of punk rock and its inclusiveness is spot on! I love it too❤ I'll never look at you the same way again as, I believe , I've seen the most authentic version of you. 🙌
Thank you Andrew and Martha! I resonate with this conversation immensely. I experienced a TBI with 6 skull fractures and 2 brain bleeds from an assault last summer, where I saw the light mentioned. I was unconscious for 3 days. During that time I visited a realm my soul knew but I did not, where I met God Osiris who offered me an invaluable necklace I did not take. Since then I have experienced heightened intuition, immense gratitude mindset shift, and can see energies, and more. I have gotten to meet several of my spiritual guides and seen them as blue silhouettes. The change in me has caused my marriage to fall apart, and that’s okay. New beginnings! I also resonate with the “feels like a game and this is just my avatar” I feel it daily now. When Martha said “you are here to find your team and tell them they are here as healers” my whole body got goosebumps, and felt as if someone placed a hand on my left cheek at the moment she said that. I am on your team!
The best way to describe my mind since my injury is like my higher self is guiding me, and sending me downloads from the universe that light the path I now walk upon. A few months ago I was “told” I am an energy healer meant to heal others and teach them how to do the same for themselves and others. This conversation only amplified that message. Thank you both so much! I am grateful!
I have never learned so much in my 56 years of life than I have listening to your informative videos. I wish you all good things in life. Thank you.
I love this podcast!! I also have a child with Down Syndrome, and she is honestly one of my greatest blessings! She helps me slow down and see the joy in literally every thing! She also expresses so much love toward me, I can't help but to feel loved by God...He sent me the most amazing child I could have ever asked for!
Thank you having Dr. Beck on! Love her!!
I married the love of my life last year 3/23/23 in Hawaii (the most magical week of my life). One of our vows was “Do you both promise to take responsibility for your own happiness”💙💙💙
Traditional wedding vows are garbage😂
They all are, apparently.
@@MarionMM marriage is not for everyone 😘
@@Kamokoids143 Good luck to your husband.
@@MarionMM Thanks for your kindness!! 💙💙💙 Have the day and the life you deserve! I can only imagine how spectacular it must be, based on our brief interaction here🤣😘
@@Kamokoids143 Yeah, you start with making fun of other peoples wedding vows. Weirdo.
Listened on Spotify, watched once here and just about to watch again! In less than 24h. Thanks Andrew for being true to yourself! Your laugh after “better, batter and better”, and “going to hell” was delighted to hear, even more to watch! This is why every episode makes your podcast even better!
Got to the end and I am compelled to comment twice. Laughter is a very accurate reflex to honesty and the joy of truth. This was a sincerely very genuine, brave, fun, and wall breaking conversation, Dr. Huberman. Bravo to you both!
I had to pause, cry and pause and cry again!
The entire conversation was speaking to my soul.
Love it.❤
so cute when he said talking to martha beck was in his "perfect day". i shed a tear. so wholesome. I know I'm going to like this episode. (listening to huberman on a rainy monday morning is part of my perfect day)
This was a fun interview and sharing. Delightful and informative!
I love that this is an extremely vulnerable conversation between 2 human beings, talking about their experiences, and being completely honest with themselves!
OH MY GOD! This is like science meets psychology meets philosophy meets sophistication and curiosity
I love this curious and honest exchange between these wonderful people.
I didnt know what to expect and now it is one of my favorite Hubermanlabs podcast!
The thing that she mentions about seeing in a child’s eye is what i have ways noticed about seeing in Andrew’s eyes but i couldn’t explain it. He has the eyes of a curious child!
I enjoy all the Huberman episodes I listen to but this episode is on a whole other level. I got so much out of it, I’ve listened to it twice this week! Thank you for introducing me to the amazing Dr Martha Beck, I’m instantly a fan.
I’ve been working with a coach recently and am on that hard path of acknowledging patterns in my relationships and coming back to my true self, and hearing this was so perfectly timed. I am the fly!! It makes so much sense about how I feel so restricted in relationships, it’s because I give myself away. Such a lightbulb moment for me and it’s given me more breadcrumbs to follow to support me in coming back to my essential self. Thank you for being so open, and I loved the moments of laughter ❤
What a stupendous meaningful conversation between two beautiful souls! And wow! First time I've heard of Dr. Beck and after listening to that I'm smitten! Brilliant, funny, silly, kind, compassionate - she glows with a very discernible energy that draws one in like a moth to a flame.
I can see I am not the only one that found this particular episode very special. It is very refreshing when people show their vulnerability and realness the way you and Dr. Martha Beck did in this episode. Beautiful. Thank You for all that you do, it’s very much appreciated 🙏
Dr. Beck might be my favorite guest on your podcast. That’s saying a lot, as you have had many truly wonderful and/or accomplished people. And I admit, I did not know who she was before this episode. But I was immediately drawn in, and knew right away she was going to be someone I would never forget.
I was one of your early subscribers, as I was following you even before the podcast. I have listened to every episode at least once, and I listen as soon as they come out. This one was truly special. Thank you.
Thanks Martha and Andrew for making me feel like it is okay to listen to your true self, your authentic self and being in alignment with your authentic self sets you free. That when I feel this isn’t right for me, I have to honor it. I must honor it to truly experience life and my best self for others. Like lifting the veil…. I agree with her, that we truly don’t know what the afterlife will be. No religion can answer that and that is okay to admit. This conversation really shed light on our purpose on the planet in so many ways and how to know you are on the right path. The idea of meeting feelings of suffering with self compassion that will allow you to show love and compassion for others is something I will work towards and this conversation gave me the blueprint. I will definitely read more from Dr. Beck! Thanks for the introduction, Andrew and for your radical openness Dr. Beck!
I’m so happy and grateful you were able to be more vulnerable for this. You mentioned the untrue judgements placed on you and others in the spotlight. I think this type of vulnerability is a beautiful way to show your truth.
Dr Andrew, I remember Costello I miss him too. You become my best friend, during my healing journey. Thank you!
Thanks for talking about Costello. It helps with my loss of my bully mix (bully, golden, mastiff), Penny. ❤
This is my 6th time listening to this episode, I love it.
This is so Awesome!!! I’m a Martha Beck certified coach, I had also long benefit from all her teachings, had changed my life, and that of those around me. Love you guys!!! ❤️❤️Thanks for doing all your work for improving the lives of soooo many people ☺️
This will change my life. I am speechless and thoughtless (?) after watching this. I have been suffering for years, self helping myself, which has its pros and cons, lol, but this video helped to put everything into place. This is the first time I've listened to your podcast. The short of Martha talking about suffering brought me here. Thank you Sooooo much. ❤❤❤
@Em-su6iq I normally never react, but I somehow feel like I need to right now. I really resonate with your comment. I have been suffering for years as well, and for me so many puzzle pieces have come together after doing a course that combines a lot of what Martha speaks of. It’s called Be your Own Medicine, by Rebecca Tolin. I highly recommend it. I hope this might help you as well on your journey. (Not affiliated with her/not getting anything out of this, I just want to help other people who are suffering and searching for answers).
The JOY and LOVE shared in this episode is unparalleled 🎉 Thank you both SO MUCH for being yourselves and sharing authentically! My heart swells with belonging, inspiration and admiration 🎉
This is one of my favorite episodes of this podcast EVER. To be honest I didn't know who Martha Beck was! I'm so glad to know her thanks to you Andrew!
What an enjoyable podcast! I feel like I know Dr. Huberman just a little bit more and Dr. Beck's energy is contagious❤
After watching hundreds of hours of you talk over the last few years and garnering immeasurable value this episode in particular I’m beyond grateful for.
It’s so refreshing and inspiring to see this type of discussion here. Both of you so staunch in your efforts to be true to your experience and reconcile science and our cultural attitudes with the more spiritual and mysterious aspects of existence. It’s reassuring for those of us who have in our lives few or none who are willing to open their heart and mind to experience the world in this way.
Thank you also Andrew for being so honest and vulnerable. Sharing parts of yourself with the world so openly takes courage and it empowers others especially men to see how these traits are not opposed to masculinity.
I also hope you know your idiosyncrasies are very endearing. Though I don’t really know you, it always brings me joy learning about you as person while you teach.
From the bottom of my heart thank you to you and your whole team for what you do ♡
First video I watch to start my day, hearing the visualization practice at the start confirms I will be following my dreams and moving to the Colorado mountains all the way from South Florida where I have lived my whole life. I tried the practice and had a very similar vision laying with my Minature Pinscher (no bull dogs here). Thank you for these videos Huberman.
This was without a once of doubt, the best podcast or even the video that ive seen online that most resonated with me.... beyond recognition. SInce the "Mind blowing and Does not compute moment" ... i knew i was in for something beautiful.
I have ADHD and feeling emotions on people and energy is something that ive been blessed with . I have a diferent path but i was alsol blessed with a bit of that "Light" moment, and the feeling of peace you get is astonishing.
Thank you Dr. Huberman, for the work and dedication to this venture of podcasting. Im gratefull to you and Dr Martha for sharing the stories and personal life on this video
This was by far the most genuine and honest podcast episode I've ever got the chance to listen too. Thank you so much for showing vulnerability and appreciation for one another in ever second of the interview. I will definitely look into Dr. Martha Becks work and read all her books. She's one of a kind. Thanks for inviting her! ♡
Thank you both (and both teams) for this wonderful podcast. I watched this episode after finishing the latest Modern Wisdom episode with you Dr. Huberman, and was intrigued by the "perfect day exercise". I was thrilled it was the first thing you covered. I've read Martha's books (two of them so far) but after being walked through it with your perfect day I was finally able to do it properly myself. What an experience! It has brought peace to me in areas that have been so deeply painful. I feel a renewed hope that, prior to this exercise, I had acknowledged as gone. Thank you. 🙏❤
Just finished this podcast and came here to tell you that this was FAR AND AWAY the best episode I’ve listened to. I became an avid follower after a friend sent me your alcohol episode.
Just incredible light. I’ll follow up in a few years if this ends up being true, but it feels like my life has changed significantly.
This is something else Andrew!! I think I am speaking for thousands of other listeners when i say - we LOVED seeing this side of yours. Of course the info and knowledge you provide on other eps are imp too, but this right here is what has the power over anything to heal the world!!! ufff thank you so much for introducing Dr Martha to us, gosh such a GEM!! I hope you bring her to the show once again
Dr. Beck is so empathetic and compassionate that it made Andrew share a lot, much more than usual😊
Great conversation! Made me cry when she was describing compassion to self🤍
My favorite podcast I have ever listened to. I never leave comments on anything. This is the first. I listen on Spotify and after listening multiple times and sharing with everyone I know, I came on to TH-cam to watch it. Thank you.
You have had some unbelievably good interviews but this one is just insane. She is incredibly wise.
Such a 'raw' beautifully 'honest' conversation that brings so much TRUTH❣️
It is incredibly inspiring to see the Huberman evolution... from left brain dominate persona now integrating right brain wholeness 💞 Blessings Dr Martha Beck for creating this space to witness 🙏
Dr. Beck's enthusiasm, energy, efference are refreshing and infectious. Joy, inquisitive, and informing. Much joy and exploration.
As a polyamorous person, I greatly appreciate the honesty, acceptance, and, frankly, the logic demonstrated in this episode.
Andrew-- THANK YOU for this. I have been listening to your podcast from day one and of all the incredible episodes and helpful information and fascinating guests you've given us, this episode spoke to me and has brought me a lot of comfort. It let me let go of guilt I had when I chose self-care and preservation over a failing marriage. Thank you for all you do.
I was surprised to see that you were interviewing Martha Beck, but wow, I absolutely LOVED this conversation!!! 😍 Thank you both for having it and for being willing to be so open. You covered so much that I really needed to hear🙏❤️🙏
This episode completely won me over and was AMAZING, raw, real, and actionable! THANK YOU Andrew Huberman and Martha Beck for your honesty and courage!! Keep going!
I shed several tears during this episode - thanks to both you and Dr. Beck for leading this discussion with such open hearts. You made me think of my bully who passed on in 2020. I loved him so much and love any opportunity to remember him. There are so many other things I can comment about this but I will say this: what a wonderful episode and I'll be looking into Dr. Beck!! Thank you!
This is one of my favorite conversations I’ve listened to in a long time. Thank you so much for bringing Martha’s wisdom and brilliance to all of us. She is one of my true heroes and listening to her is the medicine this recovering people pleasure needs. Your honesty and willingness to be vulnerable in this conversation is also a gift. Thank you.
Wow, dr. Huberman so vulnerable, talking about his struggles makes him an even better man. And dr. Beck is the best.
i feel like i’m listening to this podcast simultaneously meditating through it. truly incredible. thank you both for all your incredible work.
Dear Andrew, I’ve been watching your podcast for a while but this one touched my heart and moved something deeply in me. I am marvelled by you both and what you can reach through your podcast. Please continue your journey to light us up. Love you!❤
This is mere brilliance! Heartfelt gratitude for this podcast 🙏🏼 My two favorites in one frame 😊
Up till this episode, Andrew Huberman’s podcast was my number 1 learning tool. I accidentally tuned into this episode this morning cos I lost my way and needed something good to listen to, and it saved my day. I’m very sure, the light I followed after will change my life as well. Thank you so much❤
I came back here to say….
After listening to this I started reading North Star and Martha Beck is remarkable in her depth and connection…she connects and communicates so deftly.
I can see reason for Huberman’s admiration and it’s very cool to see this side of him here.
I’m paused.
Dear Andrew, I have arrived to a moment in my life where I absolutely want to lead with freedom and joy. This episode has given me so much joy!!! I respect and I am deeply grateful for your work. You and Martha have inspired me to continue in my path even though I have no idea where it would lead. I will try the ideal/perfect day exercise!!! Thank you for your vulnerability and openness to share your heart. I am healing from a very painful breakup but listening to you both gives me great hope on the way I look forward to experience love. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! con toda mi alma y corazón gracias infinitas.
I knew it! As someone who has been cancelling meetings throughout my years, i must say thank you! Finally some god dam recognition!
Appreciate you Huberman. Thank you for introducing me to Dr. Beck. I could listen to you both all day. Just bought 2 of her books and Anna’s Dopamine Nation ❤
I'm only twenty minutes in, and this is already the best episode ever. Martha Beck is so inspiring! 💙
