This is the best interview I've heard with Katie. I've long wanted to hear some details about her life before the awakening. You did a great job, Jesse!
It’s interesting. The way she describes how she sees life reminds me when I was coming off a mushroom trip. The first time I heard my husband’s voice, it was euphoric. I remember saying to myself, there is nothing for us to worry about, ever. Wild. Love you, Katie! ❤
This extrapolation on The Work was so beautiful! I did a week long BK retreat 10 years ago after having already trained at a monastery for 5 years, and have sat with this mind virus of egoic belief and how it causes so much suffering, for the majority of my 55 years. I have asked the question, why it is so tricky to snap out of the 'cause' of suffering when we are so sincere about it or even desperate to?! Maybe the egoic self needs the entire story of shadow and light in order to do so? I feel that on some level we need the ego's cooperation in order for it to surrender to truth. Maybe by asking these pre Enlightenment questions, the ego can more readily get on board? Because otherwise it all sounds so easy, but if it was, we would all be instantly enlightened, would we not? I have had this awakening experience Katie speaks of so many times but never an abiding version. And yes, we are essentially "it"; Awareness. Life living us. Breath breathing us. Heart beating us. Mind thinking us. But here *I* am, the unenlightened self speaking from the illusion of past and future. There really aren't increments. Either we believe the illusion of thought outside the infinite presence that we are, or we don't. A question might be, why do we stay believing our thoughts that cause us so much suffering when relief is simply in dropping that and being what we truly are... the space where thought happens? Facinating. Byron Katie is just a living expression of what we all essentially really are. Thank you for exploring this story so beautifully. Bless ♡
That is a very good question! Why do we, actually? 😊 We know that it is an illusion, that we can’t stop “bad” things from happening by overthinking, and that overthinking makes it worse. We will only be free if we start to experience without judgment. It doesn’t mean that the experience will go away because that will happen as long as we live, But the resistance about it will fall away
Wonderful interview, Jesse. Thank you for taking time to delve into areas of Katie's history we don't always hear about. I find the process of her awakening fascinating, too, and I learn more each time I hear her speak to it. Really useful information here.
Fascinating interview. I was mesmerized by both Katie, and your humble and genuine interviewing gift. I call it a gift, rather than a technique, because it is utterly genuine. Very rare these days. Thank you 🙏
I feel so sorry for her when she's thrown back into the past traumas. I wonder if it would've helped to give her a minute or two to tune herself back into the here now before moving on to the next question.
@fatimatahira7787 @@dchane01 What do you mean? 🤔 The whole core of her teachings is to realize that the past is just a dream in our minds. An illusion that you can question yourself out from if it causes you any emotional harm or suffering ❤
Thank you sharing this. for me it comes exactly at the right time. Strangely Katie digging deep into her state before, being at a loss of words was doing more for me than going to the work sheets. It made me know I have to give what is its place, acknowledge. Its like the breath in between where nothing happens. Then only things come into existance. Thank you😂 its grazy
I'm in a weird situation with a man. I think I love him, but... I don't know if this thing we have is actually healthy, or really just another trauma bond. I need prayers. Him and I both do, that whatever this is between us, will ultimately be for our own healing. And that we will co-create something that is loving and magical and beautiful and happy and wonderful and miraculous and healthy, together. Love and/or friendship to last lifetimes...
She's sweet... But seems to have a huge struggle expressing herself. It's frustrating to follow her point. I'm glad she found a way out of the depression she was in. I'll find my way too. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@JesseChappus BEYOND well deserved! Your channel is so good man and your unique clarity of questions that we all want to know, you find a way to articulate them into perfect questions (if that makes any sense 😂). In other words, KEEP IT COMING! 🙌❤️💚
I'm so glad I found this channel!! I'm so sick and tired of the struggle I've always had with MONEY!! or I should say LACK of money!! I'm tired of being terrorized by Southern California EDISON!! I'm 70...on a very small fixed income. Trying to keep the power on is keeping me without my personal needs being met. I need to "get this" ...NOW!!
I was directed here by a very caring soul who thought this video would help me question my belief that some people (including myself) are so damaged that they cannot be helped through therapy and inner work to a place of genuine self-love and relief from depression. I enjoyed hearing BK's fascinating enlightenment story, and this interviewer is exceptionally talented and did a phenomenal job, but for the life of me I just didn't get it. Maybe I'm not smart or spiritual enough and perhaps too skeptical, but, honestly, it wasn't helpful to me. Her having to ask her husband if they actually had breakfast or not that morning and him having to try to convince her made me wonder. If we are living in an illusion, what is the point if not everyone is lucky enough to receive an effortless "awakening" like her and enjoys transcendence of suffering? But I'm happy for her in any case and for any, unlike me, who gets it and is happier for it. Blessings to all who have read this overly long post. 😊
Strange I was also told to search for her exactly for the same reason you said....a kind soul told me to search for the work and this interview. Her story just doesn't speak to me. But I still hope we are wrong. I really do. But I can't keep spending all my money on therapy...it s just not worth it for me the stress of spending so much money for nothing.
How on earth is this helpful to people who have actually gone through serious childhood trauma? She was rich and then she wasn’t and then she was depressed and received a miracle awakening
@@einsteindarwin8756 byron katie shared her childhhod trauma in other youtubes. and also have many other youtubes doing the work with people whos been abused traumaticly in their childhood. try listenning to these youtubes. i pray it will free you, us. 🙏❤️
Hey! I don't know if that helps, but: the method she developped is independent of her specific biography. It's a method that is applicable to any kind of stressful thoughts/beliefs. It can be "easy ones" like "My car should be bigger" or "massive ones" like "I deserve to be treated like sh*t" or "I'm worthless and the world would be better off without me" (which is typical thoughts for survivors of abuse). You don't have to engage with her biography or have a similar one, the method is simple and universally usable, that's why it's good to know in my eyes. I work as a therapist and have introduced it to clients with completely different backrounds and many found it very helpful.
@@timm.8729 thank you for sharing your thoughts. I have not read any of her methods. I've tried many different methods over the years and they work to some degree but I still struggle with letting go of the past and I'm desperate to forgive so I can move on freely with my life. Maybe I'll take a look at her method.
@@annaleese8866 I had to really work hard on forgiveness, it seemed near impossible. The people who really helped me to navigate my way through this impasse were Fred Luskin, who writes extensively on forgiveness and Anita Moorjani. Also meditation and prayer. Don't forget Eckhart Tolle either. There is so much free information on TH-cam from these people who want to help and share their experiences. I like Byron Katie too, depression and suicidal thoughts are no respecter of wealth and privilege, she was clearly in a very bad place and had an awakening. I hope you find peace.
what arises in me as I watch this video, is just how much emotional pain, I'm in. I'm dying inside. I'm lonely. I am forever: perpetually alone. never the desired one, never the chosen one, never the wanted one. I'm in hell. suicidal hell. despair rapes my soul. I have nothing to live for. I am raped by the past, and I am terrified of the future. I cannot bear this hell anymore. I am suffocated and drowning: in despair and grief and guilt and regret and rage...
The point of her talk is how we think is an llusion. It is all in your head, literally, so you have to change your vibrations. I listen to Insight Timer a lot, an app on your phone, do yoga on it, listen to meditations. Keep seeking help and it will find you. Don't give up. That is the challenge. Just look at it as life is a series of challenges to see how we can navigate our way through. We are all going to die anyway one day, so why not try to make it through. Make that your mission. Find people to talk to or a therapist or even supplements or medications. Try endorphins or other supplements to help yourself feel better. Not giving medical advice. Find what can change your vibrations. Look at Chris Duncan;s work. EFT, QiGong, yoga, walking, exercising, hoola-hoop, go to the beach, eati healthy goods and meditation.
Amazing! But it will not work for 98% of the audience but you yourself know that! The fact is that Tolle's "Pain Body" turns out to have a physical body too, which works reflexively, automatically and constantly! You must discover it in yourself first.

This it creates, the so-called facial expression, corresponding to the internal dialogue. Find a picture depicting 3 heads according to Sigmund Freud and try to find them in yourself, then you will understand who you really are.
I'd love to know her point of view regarding using visualization and mental images to create and manifest things or situations in life. What about the mind as a creation tool? Since she comes from a place where she experiences that as illusion, dream or simply not real. If someone could pitch in and share your opinion about it, would appreciate it. Thanks.
I wish she would have an honest conversation about where the work came from. I don’t buy that she woke up and in a moment had a “divine revelation”. It must have came from some kind of knowledge of CBT. How did it evolve in her mind and then on paper. I’ve never heard her talk about that
Jesse brought out a vulnerability which I have never seen with any interview with Byron. Somehow she comes from a poignant place and space where she has never treaded before in her life and she says so.
I felt the interviewer asked good questions but I found Ms Katie to be incoherent and confusing. very disorganised in how things are articulated. a lot of starting and stopping sentences, left me feeling is this real.
how did I create this? and why? falling for a man: obsessed with health and fitness. and me? diabetic. fat. overweight: my whole life. he's vegan. I love meat. he's a fitness trainer. leisure walks are the only exercise I get. I have a bad back, I can't do much. fitness is far from my thing. why would I do this to myself? fall for a man that would/could never fall for me back?
Her inability to answer the first question about how old her children were when she was divorced completely ruined her story for me. She answered as though she was telling someone else's story.
She's 79 years old ....when I ask my parents who are the same age how old I was at a specific time they have a hard time remembering...it's sad but normal at that age
She was telling someone else's story- that was her pre awakened self. That person no longer exists. She is a completely different person now. I imagine it is like remembering a different lifetime...
Even though I understand the principle of BK's work and it has helped me in certain circumstances, I can not agree on what she says about spilling the milk and finding it beautiful, breaking the glass, what about burning the kitchen? would she find the flammes extraodinary? She doesn't find it useful to remember what she had for breakfast of what she will have for dinner. Her family mustn't worry when she nearly got run over by a bus. Ok. Well just go through life without thinking. Ukraine war? Not to worry.
She lives a life of complete faith and surrender. She was just trying to describe how it felt for her once she was "awakened" with the milk story. Instead of yelling at her kids and freaking out, she stayed calm. The kids probably cleaned it up. No drama - thats whst she is saying - stay clear and present instead of reacting with drama. If there is a fire at the house, stay present and get out of the house or help your kids get out. She is basically saying life is a miracle always, if we allow ourselves to be open to it...or not. No pressure to see it like she does - she is just offering another way to look at life.
processing processing processing as I watch this video, and everything that arises in me, is unbearable and painful... the pain of the loneliness, the grief, the terror, the heartache, the despair: is like a 999-million pound weight on top of my chest. death is all I long for. escape from feeling. escape from thinking. total and complete escape is all I so desperately long for. I am paralyzed. traumatized. and as the nighttime comes, I count down the minutes, excruciatingly slow... 'til I can be tired enough to pass out, and fall asleep... agony agony agony, every passing moment: sheer agony. the nighttime hours bring the most unbearable, most unthinkable, most unimaginable pain of drowning desperation. my soul is tortured: raped. I am breathless in this internal suicidal horrible hell. please Lord, let me die. I pray only for death, and nothing else.
Saying you're manic or hyper without a diagnosis is quite dense; it's extraordinarily insensitive to those actually diagnosed and struggling with diseases like bipolar, mania and ADHD. Why no one is filling this female in on using such disrespectful descriptors is incomprehensible.
First thing I ever heard Katie Byron say is .... the ole ....God will not give you more than you can handle ..... LOL Tell that to the people who got their heads chopped off bu Isis Katie.... Then I read Katie say that anger is childish. How dare you minimize billions of peoples pain and anguish. So far my impression of Katie is that she doles our superficial chatter, insulting pollyanna BS and is not in touch with reality. Not impressed Katie. Dont try to pretend youre a guru of any sort.
How could she own hotels and stuff but couldnt pay therapy so she would have to stay with those anorexic women because that was the only thing her insurance would pay?
Basically, her biggest problem was she was a successful mother whose husband couldn’t pull his own weight and had a smoking problem which caused Him to have a heart attack.
So.. from a place of love, having been here myself, the reframe would be; "basically my 'problem' is in believing that her biggest problem was..." etc. It's not to invalidate you but rather to get to the crux of the cause of suffering. The story of 'others' lives in our head only. It causes *us* suffering, not them. It's like hitting yourself on the head and hoping they get bruised. ♡

the ego has overridden my enlightenment, to put the ego at rest would be awesome
It's Byron bro!!!!
BEAUTIFUL KATIE
💙💙
I wish she would have an honest conversation about where the work came from. I don’t buy that she woke up and in a moment had a “divine revelation”. It must have came from some kind of knowledge of CBT. How did it evolve in her mind and then on paper. I’ve never heard her talk about that
❤❤Thank you ❤❤❤
Jesse brought out a vulnerability which I have never seen with any interview with Byron. Somehow she comes from a poignant place and space where she has never treaded before in her life and she says so.
Thank you 💙
I felt the interviewer asked good questions but I found Ms Katie to be incoherent and confusing. very disorganised in how things are articulated. a lot of starting and stopping sentences, left me feeling is this real.
katie did nothing but ask meaningless rhetorical questions with zero result and then suggested that the kid go do buddhism.
how did I create this? and why?
falling for a man: obsessed with health and fitness.
and me? diabetic. fat. overweight: my whole life.
he's vegan.
I love meat.
he's a fitness trainer.
leisure walks are the only exercise I get.
I have a bad back, I can't do much.
fitness is far from my thing.
why would I do this to myself?
fall for a man that would/could never fall for me back?
Her inability to answer the first question about how old her children were when she was divorced completely ruined her story for me. She answered as though she was telling someone else's story.
She's 79 years old ....when I ask my parents who are the same age how old I was at a specific time they have a hard time remembering...it's sad but normal at that age
Really, she was in deep depression. Sometimes I can't differentiate between two years or 8 years ago...
@@siesies000 Exatamente. Eu sofro de depressão profunda. Estou sofrendo muito. É uma dor insuportável.
She was telling someone else's story- that was her pre awakened self. That person no longer exists. She is a completely different person now. I imagine it is like remembering a different lifetime...
That's trauma talking. People lose their memory of extremely distressing events.
Didnt quite follow this interview. Jesse caught her off guard or perharps the questuons are too tough.... am kinda lost in the responses😒
Even though I understand the principle of BK's work and it has helped me in certain circumstances, I can not agree on what she says about spilling the milk and finding it beautiful, breaking the glass, what about burning the kitchen? would she find the flammes extraodinary? She doesn't find it useful to remember what she had for breakfast of what she will have for dinner. Her family mustn't worry when she nearly got run over by a bus. Ok. Well just go through life without thinking. Ukraine war? Not to worry.
She lives a life of complete faith and surrender. She was just trying to describe how it felt for her once she was "awakened" with the milk story. Instead of yelling at her kids and freaking out, she stayed calm. The kids probably cleaned it up. No drama - thats whst she is saying - stay clear and present instead of reacting with drama. If there is a fire at the house, stay present and get out of the house or help your kids get out. She is basically saying life is a miracle always, if we allow ourselves to be open to it...or not. No pressure to see it like she does - she is just offering another way to look at life.
processing processing processing
as I watch this video,
and everything that arises in me,
is unbearable and painful...
the pain of the loneliness,
the grief, the terror, the heartache,
the despair:
is like a 999-million pound weight
on top of my chest.
death is all I long for.
escape from feeling.
escape from thinking.
total and complete escape
is all I so desperately long for.
I am paralyzed.
traumatized.
and as the nighttime comes,
I count down the minutes, excruciatingly slow...
'til I can be tired enough to pass out, and fall asleep...
agony agony agony,
every passing moment:
sheer agony.
the nighttime hours bring the most unbearable,
most unthinkable, most unimaginable pain
of drowning desperation.
my soul is tortured: raped.
I am breathless in this internal suicidal horrible hell.
please Lord, let me die.
I pray only for death, and nothing else.
I'm so sorry to hear about your pain. Please seek proper help to get yourself back on track. Best to you 💙
I truly hope you made it out of your hell 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Saying you're manic or hyper without a diagnosis is quite dense; it's extraordinarily insensitive to those actually diagnosed and struggling with diseases like bipolar, mania and ADHD. Why no one is filling this female in on using such disrespectful descriptors is incomprehensible.
❤❤❤❤❤
Funny how she uses term 'brother" for her sons but 'daughter' for her daughter. 🧐
First thing I ever heard Katie Byron say is .... the ole ....God will not give you more than you can handle ..... LOL
Tell that to the people who got their heads chopped off bu Isis Katie....
Then I read Katie say that anger is childish. How dare you minimize billions of peoples pain and anguish.
So far my impression of Katie is that she doles our superficial chatter, insulting pollyanna BS and is not in touch with reality. Not impressed Katie. Dont try to pretend youre a guru of any sort.
sorry for the typos
She never claimed to be a guru. If it doesn't resonate with you, no big deal but what does attacking her acheive?
?? Why is her first name Byron but you call her Katie? Why is her name backwards? I’ve always assumed she was a man named Byron? I’m so curious
♥️
I see she has an oura ring !
Good eye Linda - I love mine too!
I SEE HIM
Ah, nonduality...
How could she own hotels and stuff but couldnt pay therapy so she would have to stay with those anorexic women because that was the only thing her insurance would pay?
Basically, her biggest problem was she was a successful mother whose husband couldn’t pull his own weight and had a smoking problem which caused Him to have a heart attack.
So.. from a place of love, having been here myself, the reframe would be; "basically my 'problem' is in believing that her biggest problem was..." etc. It's not to invalidate you but rather to get to the crux of the cause of suffering. The story of 'others' lives in our head only. It causes *us* suffering, not them. It's like hitting yourself on the head and hoping they get bruised.

@@willowway42 I responded the way I did because I've been there myself.
It doesn’t matter what the story is, it matters how you react to it.
@@einsteindarwin8756 ok, I got it! Thank you... bless ♡
