I don't know how I would go on a date a day if I didn't see purpose in my suffering.

[@DivaGeneva]

‘Guess who’s back. . .back again!’😝 Thank you Chris. . .Thank You for listening to your viewers and bringing someone on the show who is talking about overcoming their struggles. I hope that you will continue to grow in this way. Don’t be discouraged by the haters. You’re doing a new thing. On a personal observation I hope that learn to tell yourself that you are good enough. It seems inconceivable that someone as successful as you would feel that way. But I’m trying to understand it! All that success can feel empty when you can’t look at yourself in the mirror and say “I’m Good enough, I’m worthy. . .I really like me!” Get after that Chris. . !😊

When you play on a big field, it's hard not to compare yourself to the other players...but our impact on the world lasts a lifetime, Keep Going!! You are blooming on a different FIELD.

Glad you're back Chris! Congrats!

Suffering will change a person to their core, depending on how intense the suffering is and how long the person must endure it. I am not the same person I was 14 years ago. I am a warrior.

26:26 - 27:36 Chris, I hope you replay this portion over and over friend. Tyler gave YOU a nugget to reflect on. The most important 1:10 mins that most of us need to hear, replay it, write it down, post it on our mirrors. Every time I suffer and struggle through, I am stronger in my love and faith in ME. May we all find the majesty in this. Great episode 🙏🏻

I am personally blessed to have more than 40 years recovery inside Alcoholics Anonymous. There I have seen first hand the tranformative power of suffering becoming growth leading to joy, in myself and fellow AA members.

Chris you are still #1 when it comes to interviewing

[@tamaramenard7574]

I have been through many struggles myself, ever since I was 4 years old. I am not rich or famous, I am not a celebrity or well-known person, but I have been through a lot. I really wouldn't mind sharing my own experiences if it would help others. It would be an honor to maybe one day be able to talk with you about my own struggles. Like I said, I'm not famous, but I do have a story. You have helped me through a lot, Chris!!! Immensely enjoying this episode!!!! Best wishes from Arizona 🌵🌵🌵🌞☀❤!!!!

[@diannfarr2348]

Chris I saw you on the couch talking about struggling, and with Tyler Perry. I suffer from CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), it's the #1 most painful of all chronic diseases. I also have peripheral neuropathy, I can't walk without holding on to something or my walker or wheelchair. I had to retire at 47. I get emotional about this, but you always have great attitude and advice I wish you'd take yourself. You make my life better, I watch the podcast as well as news nation. I was in the hospital for 3 mos in 2020 after a very bad fall. I started watching you on CNN every night, and you made me want to do and be better. I'm in PT now, and I'm working hard to walk again. I thank you for the lessons you share of what you've gone through. I want to thank you! You picked yourself back up and are helping so many people. Pat yourself on the back.

[@mmpmazerolle]

Great episode, wonderful insight and advice on life. So true what Tyler says about forgiveness, and so true about your discussion on friendship especially in time of need. Enjoyed the episode immensely.

[@sharonmickey4566]

As someone who's been in stage 4 melanoma for a very long time (went to brain), cancer has been a gift to me. I try everyday to live in empathy, compassion and gratitude. I've learned through my journey that you NEVER know what someone is going through. If we all could remember this every time we come across a new human in our path they may be emotionally wounded or going through some struggle or suffering. Nobody gets off this planet without struggle and suffer. Love, compassion, empathy and gratitude will save our planet.... xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox ps... Humans through the collective consciousness have the ability to do ANYTHING. :)

This was so awesome! Thank you both! I’m a single mom of two black boys who are so resistant to therapy. They are both grown, and I acknowledge that I can’t give them all that they need. I encourage often for them both to seek therapy. To date, it has fallen on deaf ears. I shared this conversation with them, and I’m praying they will listen, and grow from it. Thanks again!

I adored this video. So worthwhile. It takes years of living to reach a place of fulfillment and peace if you do the work (as was said). My mantras after much life struggle finally became “accept no injury and inflict no injury” and “choose happiness.” Find what gives you joy and pursue that.

Tyler, Tyler, Tyler…what an outstanding human being. Thanks Cuomo. 👏🏾👏🏾

[@joanneflaming4604]

Chris Como has now clearly benefitted from getting “released” from CNN. He has had to process WTF happened “to” him. Now it appears while watching this interview, it all happened “for” him. Note: that concept is A Course of Miracles teaching:) That’s as he has turned this “big hit” & still rather raw pain experienced, into a healing “platform” to help himself, (as well as all viewers) process & further understand: how to survive & possibly even thrive, thru various losses. The guy has also appeared to have turned his ego down a few notches, so seems far more heartfelt! So, hats off to you Chris. Listening to you & the talented guidance of our (beautiful inside & out:) Tyler are making this “a teachable moment” for all to watch and better comprehend how to move thru life’s obstacles. Amen 🙏 to you both!

[@reneefox6397]

Thank you both for your honesty and words of encouragement..❤😊

[@meekyw.4010]

This don't have anything to do with this interview because I love Tyler Perry! But I was just thinking to myself, black people love them some Chris Cuomo for some reason!😂😅 Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation!

[@catherinesalacuse3284]

I listened to Tyler Perry in your previous interview & I loved what he had to say & still do today. I can relate to some of his childhoods memories. I agree men should grow up to be strong & testosterone filled. No questions to my opinion. Though one point which I would love Tyler Perry’s feed back & answers with the kind of mind I understood he has & which I appreciate seriously. Or you Chris. MeToo…. name which today has lost its meaning….I would love to hear that MeToo mothers, mothers of MeToo era and the Fathers combined from this present generation, need to educate their boys to become men with testosterones, but testosterone should not prevent from respecting women. I do not see that happening truly. We fight for something which requires to be changed at the roots, what the cause of it all…is The next generation of men started already….Once more …if you understood my point….I am lucky…Thank you Chris.🇫🇷🇺🇸

[@denisesalvi9157]

Tyler Perry is so amazing! He has so much wisdom. I feel.he is truly an anointed man. God has allowed him to go thru so much in his life to attain what he has had, so he can be a blessing to others w/his testimony.

I feel so fortunate to have the parents that I have, my mom i remember that she was at every price giving in my school to witness my archivements, I use to be spoiled with toys all the time, I must say I had a very descent childhood.

[@cynthiasawers7074]

Hey Chris, l love and miss you on CNN. I am glad I found you. Chris I know that you are a highly intelligent person. But I believe you need to enjoy the simple things in life and stop trying to be a fixer. See the beautiful in life and stay in the present. Have fun and let hair down and don’t be too serious. Pain and suffering is a part of life. Learn and acknowledge your experiences and lessons and keep it going. Above all inner peace is the key. Meditate and pray and leave there. Love you Chris

[@marilynsmart4095]

I do relate to this! I lost my only child and chose to try to live on. I sold my house and moved from the area where I lived. I gave myself a couple years then I retired and move out of the state and bought another house in different state. I’m trying to stay alive because 75% of me died with him. That 25% refused to stop living, so that’s where I am NOW 🙏🏽

Little old lady from Canada absolutely loved this. One of the gifts I gave myself for my 79th birthday was, 'So what!' It has been wonderful. Right up there with the F bomb. I'll sleep on it but I may just add 'what now'. That's a tricky one when you're truly living one day at a time but, I'll think about it. Thanks so much for this Chris and Tyler. I'm old enough that I can say, I appreciate you kids ;)

[@demarisafrasa957]

Very powerful awareness!

[@jeannetteembry2216]

Suffering caused me to look at myself instead of others.....and what I saw was so ugly, I didn't want any part of what was. So I started to listen to my intuition telling me what to pay attention to such as books about self improvement....high frequency principals to repeat to myself daily, changed my ethics, Morals, values and standards. I've changed thank goodness.. it's been since 2015. Yes, it takes time.... your given lessons and if you learn you move on.

I agree with Tyler, sometimes we go through a rough period, inorder to come out to the top. The Prophet Job went through a lot and then he was blessed enormously. Job wanted to die in all of the tribulations he was enduring.

[@SowingSeedsWithChristy]

Thank you for the short on this so i cld back up and watch the whole original video. Being a single mother, who didn't have a father in my home growing up, and raising a son, with his less than "agreeable" father figure, I can relate to SO much. And I can see it from the viewpoints of a fatherless little girl, the abused woman, the adult child still recovering, and from my adult son's perspective. There's so much I could echo, but you've said it already so I won't. Just thank you for airing these topics. The big TAKEAWAYS - finding something bigger than ourselves to believe in, helping our children to have resilience, not attaching to our suffering but learning how to move through it, reaching out to others in pain, not being afraid to release others from our lives with love if they keep repeating the same offenses, and forgiving others and ourselves. And on that last point, Chris, it's easier did than done at times, but you said it yourself - it frees us up to be better to ourselves and those around us. Shame, blame and guilt keep us from being there 100% for our loved ones, in a NEW way. It's not like giving ourselves a free pass to go forth and keep doing the sos. Not at all. We can do it with the grace of God and with humility. It's a blessing and if we can give it to others than we sure ought to give it to ourselves. God knew we were imperfect in our humanity. Yet he loved us long before and will long after any of our offenses. Learn to look at yourself through the eyes of God. If He forgave you long ago why not forgive yourself? Just do your amends, if it causes no one pain, and take one step at a time into your future. Maybe you think some things are UNforgivable. If so, is there someone or ones you cannot forgive? If so, start there. You can ask God to give you the eyes that see how or if that person has also suffered. After all suffering is the great equalizer for us all. Then maybe you can forgive yourself as well. Peace! Best!❤

[@kirstenviers7928]

28 minutes, Tyler Perry said something I've heard you say and I think you both set yourselves up for failure. When I make a mistake I do two things before I move forward: I forgive myself by accepting the mistake, and then I tell myself I will do it again. In this way I am hedged against those people who need me to forgive myself for their sake, and not mine. I would get a lot more done if there were less people on the planet needing to hold my hand.

[@karenmoldenhauer1421]

Amen to that

[@johnsolberg5611]

This is to Chris coamo. Nobody comes to the father with out the son and if not your out of there.Thats the message for you Chris coamo.

Chris. Thank you for bringing Tyler back again to talk about struggles. Love your Podcast and I gotta get me some free agent merch. I'd love to see you have your own network. Your podcast is truly who you are and your perspective and courage are really appreciated by the little non important guys like me who your voice presents so many of our personal concerns to the masses that would be discounted by our voices as insignificant babble of the underlings. You and your brother remind me so much of an Irish family from the 60's. Standing for what's just and right even against the powerful. Much love brother...
