Who do you surround yourself with?

[@ericlopez9872]

Family and friends that I love ❤️

[@celialum9863]

A mix of very different friends, family, and work colleagues. Diversity!

[@debrabelaska3175]

Good afternoon I surround myself with people who are positive force in their lives. I stay away from people with drama and will hold me back. I 🚶‍♀️ 10,000 ➕️ a day and I need to be encouraged and not discouraged or disappointed

[@Maribeth1379]

A mixture of people from all walks of life who show the bravery to be critical, independent thinkers even if they don’t all agree on topics being discussed. Respect is given because respect is shown.

[@katrinacalcaterra5715]

Mostly family but I join groups at the YMCA for working out and I made friends in there. I still have friends from grade school too. I try to stay positive. Thank you. I love people I can grow with.

[@gillianmilne8364]

Thank you for expressing your thoughts today. I just woke up from four days of over indulging, once again, and was experiencing abject self loathing. Your words are inspiring. I have been down this particular road before, realize the "why" of this behavior. I needed to hear "forgive yourself." I am going to move on.

[@sherryrepp9541]

CHRIS I'M SO PROUD TO HEAR YOU TALK I'M SHERRY REPP AND I ALSO FOR GIVE MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE ALSO. THE BIBLE SAYS TO FORGIVE. BUT WE HAVE TO FORGIVE FOR OUR SELF ALSO

[@hullahoney1]

My Mother has always told me "You are the Company you Keep" and I've lived by it... Also Energy Vampires , I don't have the energy to give anymore. Wow you are so right , I'm doing my best to eat right and take care of me. I needed this talk this morning ~ Thank you Chris

[@jeanellreynolds7291]

Good morning ☕️ I absolutely needed this message. Thank you Chris. 🫶🏽

[@mollizi2131]

Words of wisdom, Chris! Thank you for taking the time to share with us what is most important. We are a WiP and the work never stops, thank you for reminding me not to give up.

[@debrabelaska3175]

Good morning ☕️ 🙏 🌄 ☺️ Chris, Greg Ott, Dusty and TeamCuomo. Just ⏰️ up and having ☕️ always enjoy your walk 🚶‍♂️ and Talk Chris especially when you go by the cemetery and release your thoughts. Will watch you later and will see you tonight on NewsNation at 8pm EST

[@GUHJordan]

Thank you this message was inspirational to my soul❤ God bless you Sir Cuomo and your family ❤

[@fran2688]

One thing I'm pretty good at is forgiving myself for ALL of the mistakes I've made. Right or Wrong I did it my way!

[@Blessedevenwithms]

That’s not an easy thing to do. It’s easier for me to forgive someone else than it is for me to forgive myself. Good for w🤲🏼♥️

[@DivaGeneva]

Chris. . .I don’t think anyone is criticizing you for walking long distance in the heat. We like your Walk and Talks and look forward to them. And the people who don’t like them, and watch anyway, thank them too for the coins!😂

[@jeffreyvandyke1136]

Walking with Chris is the best simulation of walking with a family member you love, where even though they are humanly flawed they still have well-meaning, caring, beneficial wisdom which you can sift through.

[@jackroberts416]

It is better to be alone and improve yourself than to hang out with bad people.

[@christopherlopezkrauss5065]

Thank you for these thought provoking, introspective vids

[@NicoleSCampbell]

Oh man I hope somebody judges me, there is only 1 thing I regret and I can admit it. No drinking in 12 yrs. I'm working on a philosophical thesis, my kids are my audience, I'm happy with how things are 😁 Best walk and talk

[@lorriewatson7423]

Amen! Thank you for putting this out there, truly helpful to me! BTW: walking is my drug, I NEED it everyday; emotionally, physically, mentally, it is essential for my well being!

[@gloriachambers3272]

Thank you for taking time out of your very busy schedule to impart such wisdom . This is a great start to my day looking deep into myself evaluating the good, the bad, and the ugly. A great attitude adjustment process for sure!

[@chattingwithshap8010]

Absolutely great segment. So true on many levels. Breaking that habit is tough, because it’s much easier to follow the crowd and hop on board, than to go it alone. Gossip and chatter go hand in hand. It’s like sitting around a dinner table and hearing the worries of the world. Instead, find your POSITIVE thing and go with it. Like walk and talk. Great physically and emotionally.

[@user-co9it3vr4s]

We have all been through our ups and downs. I lost my job a few years back, and I was devastated, but I came back. It was important to me. Otherwise I would’ve gone all the way down which means I would’ve drank myself to death I would’ve made other people miserable, I would not have the gold that I have today. It’s all a learning lesson even when it’s bad, so what we do today is not just change yourself and stay there. Get stuck?? How do we get out of ourselves but we do it by helping others and that’s the secret. When we’re angry, we keep pointing fingers at everybody else but when we try to change, we try to help others by the pain that we go through! It definitely works and that’s how I learn how to change my life. Until I die I’m gonna continually make mistakes but I’m OK with that and I’m honest with that because I let others know that I’m not perfect! 10:13

[@user-co9it3vr4s]

Chris, I walk and talk with you and listen to everything you say on an every day basis. I live in St. Louis Missouri and right now it’s dark so I will listen to your podcast again in about an hour so I can hear everything that you say. I don’t just hear things one time are we listen and listen and listen over and over again, so it sticks in my brain. I absolutely love your walk and talk pot podcast. Keep it going.😅

[@marialasso8892]

Hering to you makes my self feel a lot better. . It is a good recommendation to all of us God bless you. I am glad to hear you. An glad to be back. Good luck.

[@kashanalamin3491]

Thank you, Chris. You don't just talk the talk...you also walk the walk. For that, I admire you. You're constantly seeking ways to improve yourself and help others in the process. Afterall, we are all human and everyone is going through SOMETHING! Your ability to be vulnerable with your "stuff" makes it easier for me to be more open to examine mine!! I'm feeling very inspired. You're the best! 😊

[@janecallahan2340]

I particularly love this walk and talk. Chris, you are right-on about how we must first forgive ourselves. We can't change the past, so we have to live with our guilty conscious or forgive yourself and move forward and keep making good choices for yourself. You have a tough demanding job, but man you are so good at it. Remember, God loves you; hang out with him when you start in with the guilt trip.

[@sunshineinarizona1726]

Have a great day, everyone. 🌻

[@dadwithabat]

Your timing has always been spot on, thank you for the knowledge drop and affirmation sir.

[@noteadoc]

Good morning CC 🍵 Thank you for the W&T 17....Love t!

[@Maribeth1379]

Great message. I’ve had to whittle down who I surround myself with in recent years (mostly because of the political climate) but have discovered so much bliss in the process. My wolf pack has grown smaller but so much healthier. The adage that quality is preferred over quantity certainly applies to quality of life ❤

[@angelawatkins3406]

I am glad to hear until this youhave great people to support and surround yourself with. THAT WSLK WAS ISOLATED AND NO ONE ELSE UNLESS A CAMERA MAN ACCOMPANIED YOU.? BE SAFE! YOUR LEITURE WAS INSPIRATIONAL.

[@twylaguenette-wachno9794]

Being aware and wanting to deal with it . . . Soo true. Thank you for #17, Chris! (Definitely VALUE 'in this'. Thanks for walking 'with us'! And like you end for us. . . Take Care of Yourself

[@aanchaallllllll]

Recap by Tammy AI

[@Blessedevenwithms]

Every day I awaken, I pray then take inventory of my body. If I’m very lucky I have no pain and everything works 😉 I take my morning supplements and meds. I have a trainer 3 days a week and a physical therapist 3 days a week. Oh at 5:30 am. I’m not going to lie, it takes everything in me and more to just wash my face and brushing my teeth somedays. This is how I deal with my MS.. I treat the bad days just like my good days. No difference, No Complaining! There are times I just sit and cry! Then I get up, blow my nose and thank God for my day. Deep breaths and move forward. Have a blessed day y’all ♥️🤲🏼🗺️☮️❤️‍🩹

[@mimiv8766]

Thank you for this morning’s inspiration! You’re the best❤

[@rrussell9731]

I would add some advice that's very basic: 1. Have self awareness; be as objective as possible about yourself. 2. Always remember, you don't know what you don't know.

[@laurencrouse2418]

I've had a hard time finding genuine people to interact with. Many are self absorbed and downright cruel... and with a lot of women there is the jealousy thing... so mostly I just stick to myself, my husband, my cats, and my flowers. I don't mind. I would rather have no friends than fake, backstabbing "friends."

[@joannarobertsrogers3662]

I always feel like you’re talking directly to me, Chris. You have a real gift for this. (On top of all your other gifts)

[@catherinesalacuse3284]

When people judge it’s because they only live & see through a narrow lenses What they think, what they would do if they were you, is their world, they cannot accept that they is no such thing as “ normal”… They do not accept our differences. It is always the ones they point with the fingers who are the weird ones. It’s people whose life is & had been based on secured or traditional standards. Anything different is going to be rejected & criticized It is so hard for you because everything I know & I do couldn’t be applied if I were a public figure. So I honestly give you so much credit to keep, trying to help all of us your fans & followers by sharing your own thoughts with the goal to help yourself in the first place. I know what it does to us, when we can open our heart, speak to someone & feel we are heard too. This is BIG, there are very few individuals we can do it with. We have to choose & pick anyone we allow in our private circle. How “you & your Family” get to maintain a good level of privacy, is admirable to me. Have a good day Chris, and try to only hold on what really matters. Go for a boat ride for half an hour or more, just to clean up the unwanted thoughts. 😘👍🇫🇷🇺🇸

[@lindafrazier8092]

Agreed!!!

[@misssilly6838]

HEAR, HEAR!!!❤

[@laurencrouse2418]

I second that.

[@kirstenviers7928]

35:12 "Tied up in why I suck," you are a good leader. You showed me your claws and how you can dig, squat, and bury. The beauty of friendship without benefits is the ability to walk away. Marriage is hard, especially when you are trying to protect your children. The story of your son reminds me of what I see the men around me going through as the lesbians around here keep trying to make our apartment building only for women while using my hatred against me and the men I love. They taunt like your son did to you, and my men, like you, will reach out. I am not there very often for them because I'm more of a sniper than a gossip. I sit there and take it, bearing my own constitution to choose my battles wisely and then I wait for the Holy Spirit to burst forth while hoping I've taking good aim. Only women of my ilk will appreciate me, the gossips are a spray of bullets knowing they will kill something while finding excuses for the innocence lost. I'd rather bear the burden of a mistake once in a while. So, I only suck to those who want me to run over the cliff with them, and here I bring you to the story of how Jesus sent demons into a herd of pigs which he subsequently let die jumping off of a cliff.

[@Robert_white701]

Thank you, Chris for your positivity. It is very inspiring and factual. Straight to the point and indep. Keep praying for the light of truth to be shared. with it the Many Blessings that will come

[@lindademello8893]

As a widow , after 60 yrs of marriage I try to find some what of happiness not rushing into any thing but as my husband an I loved traveling each time we could, an loved simply loved dancing as well ❤️ It's been 3 yrs I at times on line but the trust that person to scam me so I take things one day at a time an give it to God

[@dorothyedwards7225]

Thank you, Chris, I feel the same way. I see the beast in things instead of the beauty, the victims of things.

[@Q-zire]

Thanks for always helping out the masses by sharing your own personal struggles. ❤❤❤❤❤

[@sheilawilliams9822]

I just came upon your channel and ive always loved you on CNN. I am definitely a fellower of this channel. I love your wisdom and commentaries. Blessings ❤

[@sparky955]

Thank you for your encouragement & honesty. PLEASE carry a water bottle when you walk in the heat! Aging increases the danger of dehydration & some prescription medication can affect the body’s ability to regulate temperature. Please, please, please consider carrying water or a sports drink. 🌹

[@eflores200683]

Thank you Chris.... You just make my day!

[@paulachambers5822]

Very good, these points are very relevant. Thanks so much. Insightful

[@Bfree444]

We are judgemental of ourselves, that's why we judge others ....when we start living ourselves, we recognize our judgement of ourselves and change it to be more positive, and in turn recognize the positive value in others, and change our perception of ourselves and others...we raise our vibration which changes what we attract

[@jvb5590]

Your Walks and Talks are awesome!!!

[@tommyedwards6956]

You got an Amen from here.......Been there done that....still working on it consciously with daily effort.

[@celialum9863]

It's so important to surround yourself with people who are always striving to be better in some form or another.

[@TetCoCollective]

This is amazing! You are so generous with your process & we appreciate you!

[@lordbeerus6182]

I needed this man. Good looks fam

[@kirstenviers7928]

Good walk. Thank you for being raw and true.

[@susan-mr5dd]

Love your walk and talk makes me think your an empath you care about others,thanks Chris

[@doc.doc.]

Thank you bro - I was having a terrible morning this really centered me. Keep up the walk and talks ❤

[@catherinesalacuse3284]

I am coming back on a previous show of yours, based on nutrition & how to have an healthy life & food habit. I was not too thrilled with your guest I remember he was much too extreme for my perspective…only…. It worked for him though There is one product which is in most of food and in drinks in the US. I was supposed to search back & bring it to your attention as it is a carcinogenic additive. You or your CC might know about it. But please publicly about it The additive is called « DIACETYL » substance which bonifies the tastes. See you, Vivek & Chris Christie tonight 👍❤️🇫🇷🇺🇸

[@user-co9it3vr4s]

Yes, we do love to point fingers don’t we Chris. We love the gossip, and we love to tear down other people. Let’s start Tearing our own self first. All the things we do wrong let’s gossip about that first. Let’s let the world how many mistakes we make on a daily basis before we start pointing fingers at somebody else.😅

[@paulinekasaija6396]

Forgive myself just as l forgive others. I can't tell the difference. I do both. 🎉. Christopher l love you. ❤️

[@Mike_Cosentino]

I enjoy these walk & talks. Thank you, Chris

[@RuthR888]

Hi Chris your walk and talk videos are my fave. Just wondering what distance do you usually walk and how long does it usually take? I usually do 5km in a day (2.5km x 2 daily) I could probably step it up 😅

[@liliapineda6350]

You clearly expressed what I have learned over the years that I want to pass on toy granddaughter who just started college who now will be under the influence of other people besides her loving family. I pray she will be guided by Christian values formed in her younger years, a strong righteous directional moral compass foremost with kindness,intelligence empathy amd compassion, a firm commitment to core values of😅inclusion, diversity and empathy God bless you, Chris Cuomo.

Great inputs and reminders. Thanks Chris.

[@maynewzion2661]

Great talk Chris. I needed it. Thanks, keep up the great work.

[@kurtbogle2973]

Denile , my situstion was backwards. My mother hated me. I couldn't ever do anything right. After I figured out that I wasn't the problem (my mother is insane) I spent years finding out that I was a much better person than I had been told. So that's backwards isn't it? Deciding to help people is more dangerous than you could imagine though.

[@hannahtelluselle]

This is why I'm so happy with reconnecting with my inner child, I simply have an inner dialogue with her and ask her to forgive me 😊 When it comes to having good people around me, the dynamics changed when I moved to the US, which many didn't really support, but I sensed was their own fear and envy. The better I feel, the more alone I become in Sweden, but rather that than having to lower my energylevel. I do miss some peeps from my 20's but that is also life. Thanks for sharing and Keep it up! Oh, you should exercise with what is FUN for you. You just have to come to terms with your limitations, just like I know I'll never become a professional dancer more than some Hula entertaining, but, I still dance because it makes me feel happy, alive and free. So, what do you want to feel and what can you do to feel that way?

[@hannahtelluselle]

(Temptation, huh? 😋)

Remember when I got sober a bunch of times? Me too. Then “oh no she’s sober what’s our excuse for what happened for a decade now?”

[@kurtbogle2973]

The reality of life is that there's no reason to worry. Because though you may not have everything you need to keep you away from the end of your life, like food. We always have exactly what we need to get to the end of our lives. Lol

[@jemimahomamo426]

That was great. Keep it up.

Yay!! So happy to see the walk n talks! Very thought provoking conversation; congrats on 20lbs lost 👏🏽. (I’m so jelly), so you don’t workout for show?? You’re more “go than show??” I mean, come on Chris if you’re working out the way you workout and getting the results that you’re getting by looking the way you look 💪🏽 you can do a “show n share” for inspiration value of course; to encourage hard work and discipline. I’ll be inspired!! 👍🏽😍👍🏽😍

Well said. I need mantras and present tense by Pearl Jam correlates with the message to me. Peace

[@catherinesalacuse3284]

I wonder if all wouldn’t start how people’s needs or expectations are from the beginning for them. Again because of my different culture, as an outsider, I always was & still is seeing things differently. There is an outside eye that I cannot change What had struck me not immediately but understood much later through business or even in Family, it that people’s nature is so often to compete with other people either they admire or the ones they wish they were… People tends to want to be… what ever it is… they mostly all have a facade trying to be their idle persona…. Influenced of course by all the outside influences. So the basics reality is that people either do not like who they are or they want to be more than what they think they are. This just there creates their lack of confidence And…. This is when those people envy, become the people that they are either jealous of or rivals with…. I always said, “I do not love myself” , like we are too often told & advise to do…. But more valuable to me, “I love who I am”, what ever it means, but it has changed my life like you have no idea. Priceless & so feel good awareness. As I never stop thinking & reviewing what I said before. My answer to people is to grow up trying to find out who they are, grow up in it & never think others are better. My biggest competition always was myself, which was the hard way because of a very demanding personality when I only came to the realization in those last 3-4 years . A bientôt . 🇫🇷🇺🇸
