Whitney Cummings EXPLAINS Why You Need To TRULY LOVE YOURSELF To Create SUCCESS | Lewis Howes

[@ShaneHummus]

What a great interview! Learn new things and how to use the negative side of yours to be your edge to greatness.

[@lewishowes]

Thanks for watching, Shane!

[@johannalacson3363]

This lady is so real and I wish her success and happiness!

[@johannalacson3363]

Wow, I really enjoyed the show!

[@danwitzke-yourfinancialhea8995]

"Give forgiveness, not because the person deserves it, but because you deserve peace" Love that

[@raynaprettyman5361]

I did exactly what she's talking about in my relationships. I decided to go for the person that fit a list of wants and needs and not red flags. The wild chemistry was not there, but a great and kind friendship was. We have been married almost eleven years now and it's amazing.

[@Mi-kf5bc]

Whitney changed my life with her honesty about codependency. She is raw and real and a true light.

[@lewishowes]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@priscillachaparro1364]

Yes, i read her book last year! She’s awesome 😀. I love her how raw she is👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.

[@mgmarrow]

Lewis is the best interviewer I have personally observed. He is interested in his guest and shows genuine concern and understanding for the experiences endured. He is respectful, appropriate and organized in his approach. Watching and listening to him is inspirational. I appreciate Whitney's candid responses. She is my favorite comedian and it's great to get to know more about her as a person. She's an asset to the comedy scene, brilliant!! ❤️❤️

[@lewishowes]

Thank you so much for watching! :)

[@keepcurious]

Found relating to Whitney one of the strongest I have ever felt with anyone I've listened to. Will be playing back many times to work on what I'm learning. Thanking you both and all the very best x

[@8mints134]

This Woman Will Not Ever Be Boring... And This Conversation Was Healing!!!

[@happyness41]

She 100% described my toxic family culture, and is so relatable. I recommend her book.

[@MichaelUnbroken]

Powerful words from a powerful human being. I think Whitney has and will continue to be one of the most powerful voices in comedy and in the scope of the current phase that America is in. One of my favorites

[@MBookerLA]

Listening to the asked question is super important. Thank you for highlighting this truth. I'm single and wish for another. This was a good interview!

[@esjaymusings]

I really really enjoyed listening to this conversation. So refreshing.

[@lewishowes]

Grateful for you, Stacey!

[@isadorafriedman3385]

This is officially my favorite interview I've seen from you so far. Ugh so good!!!

[@Michelle-em1gp]

this was literally therapeutic to watch, amazing interview

[@张冬玲-c5i]

I literally having this grin on my face while watching this interview ~definitely saw the great chemistry between you two

[@annabirou2355]

One of the best interviews!! Bravo to both of you, sharing your child traumas your flaws, your family issues, your heart! You put together tears in my eyes, because I saw so much from me in both of you! Congrats Lewes and Mrs Cummings, thank u 🌹🌹

[@Midsummer-wi3ez]

I think this is one of your most inspiring interviews for me. A lot of the people do seem perfect now (because I know a lot of them had hard lives prior to their success) or come off having everything together, and this felt more real. I have a chronic illness and realizing well maybe I don't have to be perfect like them and can still have success, really helped me. It gave me hope because for a long time its felt like I couldn't have success if I was sick, a family member even told me that if anyone saw me while I was sick they would just leave (boyfriend wise). So thank you for this, I am glad to know that you don't have to be perfect to be able to achieve your dreams. It feels like a huge burden of feeling like I have to fix everything (& some of it may not be fixable) before having my dreams isn't a reality, it was merely just a perception of reality that I accept as truth, when in fact, it was a lie.

[@mercywanjiku4583]

Amazing interview. Thank you Whitney for your authenticity. Thank you Lewis for sourcing the best. Love from Kenya

[@bernardlambotte2985]

Once again another amazing interview! This one really hit home for me on so many levels. Since having set myself on a path of change and believe that you really do have to re-wire your brain in order to keep improving towards changing into the person you want to be. Not the image you portray of yourself from the influences around you that held you back. Real change starts from the heart and takes time, dedication and persistence - and your interviews are a source of high octane fuel for my engine!

[@3EBstudio]

she is such a gem... the last 8min was so wholesome

[@alchemistjess1728]

Wow who would’ve known Whitney Cummings was so relatable. I love this so much she seems like such an amazing person to be around thank you for this gem Whitney and Lewis! I took so much from this.

[@peart320]

You don't know how badly I needed to hear this podcast right now in my darkest hour. Thank you!

[@sc33h3o3]

Glad you're feeling better :)

[@iammeganmichel4850]

Whitney stole my heart ❤️ saying she’s a perfectionist (🙋🏼‍♀️). To then have the courage, vulnerability and authenticity to say she’s a hot mess and still successful. It was a raw truth for me.

[@nietzschesmuse]

46:03 I love this interview so thought provoking!

[@chania80]

My favorite episode so far. So real & relatable. Thanks for this Lewis!

[@josiebatres4848]

You two have chemistry in this interview. Good discussion.

[@awaworldart]

THE BEST INTERVIEW HANDS DOWN! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💕💕💕💕💕💕💕🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@thevagabondtribune6803]

LOVE this. LOVE Whitney. Wow. I'm typing this while watching, so I'm hoping she's going to say what her favorite books on "neurology" (the word she keeps using) are. If not, I would LOVE to see a list. I never thought about my prior relationships to "soul mates" the way she described them. When she was talking about how that's a sign to steer clear, my eyes got SO wide. Just wow. I wish I had had this when I was 19... Thanks for an amazing interview, Lewis!

[@lewishowes]

You are very welcome!

[@castellonkaren61]

The universe is definitely telling me something because I watched Marisa Peer interview John Gray (author of Men Are From Mars Women Are From Venus) and the same point was made!!

[@nickbargas7352]

Great respect for Whitney. She's much more grounded than what I thought. We all strive to understand ourselves to the deepest level possible but we MUST drop the EGO so that can happen. Release all the negative energy/vibrations that are linked to an emotion(anger, fear, doubt, jealousy etc.) and replace it with positive energy/vibrations linked to an emotion(forgiveness, love, acceptance etc.) if you dig deep enough and you become nothing you will understand everything.

[@grandeurcleaning3862]

Wow! This was a really great conversation. This was the first thing I seen and i just clicked on it so i could listen to something while cleaned out my closet. I ended up thinking about how I could be a better person and writing down ways I can start to change my life and how i think about my past. And my closet is still not clean so Thanks Lewis and Whitney. Lol j/k great show!

[@enzaricci9977]

Thank you for interviewing this woman. She has inspired me to lead by example and to leave people a little better than I found them. I saw myself in her a few times. ♥️🌺♥️

[@lewishowes]

So happy you are enjoying the content. I would love for you to subscribe and leave me a review here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id596047499

[@blazfinzgar8431]

Hey Lewis, I've watched many of your interviews. I just love them. Thank you for asking such great questions to so many interesting people.

[@RizoSupernova]

I love her so much, shes so down to earth

[@lisaripley2363]

Whitney is awesome and so raw and authentic.

[@zoeyH2O]

THIS MIGHT BE MY MOST FAVORITE PODCAST FROM YOU, SO FAR

[@susanaperez524]

Great interview Lewis!!! She was great too; the way she opens up to tell about her life with no shame. That is so freely nice. It is the way it is. Congratatuons for that attitude. Thanks for this talk!

[@scottybthebrand]

I miss 'Love You, Mean It' - Whitney is so smart. Good discussion!

[@trishapascacio6960]

This is one of my favorite podcast. Wow just completely transformative

[@lolitamorris2943]

So a mature mind for only 36 years . She seems so balanced.

[@hameley12]

One of the few things I've learned growing up is that we as humans aren't dull, we simply lack the love and passion for self-building that "drive", always have a hobby or two, or three hobbies, other than your family or your partner, an engine or drive that says 'This is you, and this is your time to shine. This is your love and passion. Keep on going.' For example, Whitney's passions are comics, charity, and horses. For myself, my passions are art, music, cooking and entertaining friends, and poetry. My partner is my true love but not my drive. Too much codependency on others makes us, or in other words, it hinders us from building ourselves up into the person we are supposed to be. Sometimes hurdles and difficult experiences do build on us a thicker skin. That's good for some and that's not good for some people and that's okay. Because everyone's brains are wired differently. I've also learned that there are different types of love ranging from "too much, you're suffocating me' to "cold distant, we don't spark, we should stay friends". This was a very interesting conversation. Thank you, Lewis!

[@lewishowes]

You're welcome, thank you for watching🧡

[@hameley12]

@Lewis Howes Every time I watch your videos, I take notes on what the guest or you are saying. Later, I turn those small notes into inspirational short phrases to remind my friend or myself that we are still learning. Thanks so much for the reply. I look forward to the next video.

[@sammigrace2802]

I am on the same journey. I just had a formal conversation with my mom about the fact that I forgive her for what she did when I was young. I had but she deserved to have that peace also

[@jujubee90275]

Really respect Whitney❤

[@maimohamed3590]

OMG , I'm glad I know her, I can relate so much to what she is saying, I'm grateful for this, thank you both😌🙏✨😍👌💪💕

[@patricebennett1100]

Loved this interview. What an intelligent, fun, upbeat person. Thank you.

[@MY-qm6yz]

Love, love, love this interview! Thank you @Lewis Howes and Whitney!❤

[@sherrykao978]

I appreciate her honesty!

[@lewishowes]

Agreed!

[@blakewescott3798]

This was a powerful interview, one of my favorites. Definitely taking a lot away from this interview. Thank you Lewis Howes for putting this together!

[@barryanderson8740]

Love how she describes the #lifehack of asking people about themselves. So spot on! 👏👏

[@3EBstudio]

and the debunked

[@rolita12]

Wow her speaking about addictions and how it can be confused with “chemistry” when dating was so eye opening. It makes sense... to avoid falling “in love” with someone without knowing them. Thank you for this guest, she’s amazing!

[@Abundance26]

Her speaking about being the funny one helped to ease the tension was exactly what Dr Judy Rosenberg explained when dealing with narcissism. (That there is always a funny one in a difficult family.) This made the explanation so much clearer.

[@amswestyorkshire8048]

God love what Lewis mentioned. Yes definitely attitude of his views, williness to improve... definitely it's big things.

[@yisalemushgirmaye7647]

The more I listen to her, the better I understood about myself and my family dimension. Family is not perfect but I know they are trying their best to provide everyday. The problem is how they communicate to us and how we actually understood what they were saying. I raised by single mom, am really trying to understand her the more I listen to other people stories.

[@lindasvejme9863]

Her life is so relatable to me. What she learned is something I must learn. Thank you for this one! Life changing! ❤️

[@jennifermcnuttmusic6353]

Really enjoyed this interview. I’ve watched her by chance over the years, saw her live and hearing more of her, I love her share, wit and sense of humor.

[@nickidaisyreddwoodd5837]

Wonderful woman. I love horses infinitely much.

[@tripandnature9496]

YES, THE DEATH OF MY GRANDMOTHER showed me WHAT KIND OF BOUNDARIES I MUST HAVE. (Because her DEATH TOOK ME BACK TO THE TIMES I LOST MY FATHER & MY MOTHER WHO PASSED AWAY A DECADE BEFORE MY GRANDMOTHER).

[@salmanouri8526]

Enjoyed listening to you so much ❤️

[@lewishowes]

Appreciate you!

[@joejoe77_gold]

Love this Equine Therapy...The Eagala Program and 'Natural Lifemanship' are great

[@emiliojimenez6947]

Greatness for me, well this is my hope for me is that I will be able to give advice through my actions and behaviors.

[@Forgaen]

This is brilliant and dooooo relatable for me too, thanks!

[@z.shari11]

I love their chemistry 😊🥰 (no disrespect to their respective mate...) This is definitely one of my favorite episodes. I see so much of myself in her. We have so much in common and I have learned so much from this episode...

[@Brofessorben1017]

Such an awesome interview. Thanks yall!

[@lewishowes]

Yes! Let's Go!

[@wendyguillen1111]

Thank you Lewis for this interview! I followed Whitney since I saw her own show and also on Instagram, but now I love her even more! I'm going to the library (yes!) and picking up a neurology book. I can't wait to read her book and yours as well! Cheers and thank you for your great questions and fantastic content!

[@priscillachaparro1364]

Wow, on Her love addition cycles, i can really relate😦! Next on my list, learn about love neurology😄. Thank you Whitney for sharing, and Lewis for having her on🙏.

[@iamaleo247]

I LOVE learning.... you never disappoint! I am healing bit by bit listening to your interviews. GREAT content, Lewis!

[@colinmorris4921]

Seems To say it’s all ok. So refreshing. We’re all human

[@lewishowes]

Yes!

[@reenasingh-id9zh]

Hi Lewis ,can u do a video on your own journey ,since childhood ,the valuable lessons u learnt with intention to heal your emotional side

[@neitsytmaria6401]

I love to listen Whitney talk about this psyhology stuff!

[@nuriatahir]

I love the 3 truths segment.... btw before I saw this interview I said, you, Tom Bilyeu, Shawn Stevenson etc are such get interviewers... the questions you guys ask are so awesome I’m addicted to watching. I find new insight mentally 😍😍😍😍😍

[@NaomiGrayStyling]

What a brilliant interview... I could relate to so many things mentioned.. Wow.. I will listen to it again as I know there's information that will sink in deeper watching over a 2nd time.. Thank you Lewis for the great content 😊

[@JaneASmyth]

Great interview! Thanks to you both for this... It gave me some aha moments about my own life, and I appreciate Whitney's vulnerability and honesty. Lewis really does ask the best questions! (I am also a fan of many of the books on the shelves, too!)

[@positivetimeline2023]

Million likes to this interview. Thanks. Whitney is a brilliant mind/

[@KM-690]

Peeps, please research info on attachment theories! It's about how human beings respond in relationships when hurt, separated from loved ones, or perceive a threat. Provided any caregiver, all infants become attached-however, individual differences in the quality of the relationships remain significant. Attachment theory gives us 4 different attachment styles--super interesting! This video is really good!

[@KBA130]

Great content as usual Lewis. I do agree about using fear/uncertainty/anxiety as fuel to propel us forward and make progress in the right direction. However, how about the person who has so much anxiety that more than 50% of the time they can't properly introduce themselves with a handshake because of sweaty clammy palms. Externally others may not be aware of any sort of "problem" until they make contact with that person. Will you be able to address this ? It's a serious problem. I guarantee many people have experienced this or will soon come in contact with someone like that.

[@lewishowes]

Appreciate you, Kofi!

[@parpar8440]

this really resonated and was important for me to hear, thank you !

[@renatapaschoal7605]

Great interview! I really liked the movie where Whitney Cummings played a neuroscientist. I also use neuroscience and quantum physics concepts in my fiction. She inspíred me to keep believing in what I do! Thanks a lot for bringing her to the show. I'm always listening the guests. Great podcast! Woot!

[@bray12345]

Why was there music playing at the end when she was talking about animals

[@footwalk688]

I thought the same lol

This was an amazing conversation!

[@elenakrunic5387]

Great guest! Thank you Lewis so much, I learned a lot from this! Much love

You don't always attract what you are. It's random, to a certain degree.

[@love4diablo]

That was a fucking amazing episode. Must check out the movie, netflix special and read the book too.

[@NicMatt555]

Amazing podcast and oddly enough the death portion was most impactful for me. It’ll be a year for me on 4/30 so this resonates so much for me.

[@edith324]

I am diffineatly not needy judging people when they have a personality that is their too nice have never had it in their life is so sad i never judge my friends nor they do me we give each other things with not expecting back.Amen.

[@MichaelaSmith]

So many similarities with my life - hands down the best interview Lewis. At least for women - not sure if men see it the same way. Thank you

[@nickidaisyreddwoodd5837]

24:25 Yes I agree we have to also lean back and listen more. But if someone says extremely unethical things we Must give that person at least a feedback on ethics. Fact checks. Factual information. Doesn't have to be done in a bossy way. It will likely be perceived as bossy but that is not our problem. As animal rights activists and ethics philosophers we have to give feedback and fact checks so that people can at least hear things from a different view point. That is very important to do. This is all part of activism. And if someone hurts an animal or human it is our responsibility to intercept and protect the innocent.

[@SylvainMedina]

Good interview! You have a real knack for asking pertinent questions! FYI From 1:25:30 to 1:26:00 it sounds like there's outro music playing. Might wanna get your post production person to check into it. :)

[@IvanaSkoko]

Interesting and inspiring conversation, really enjoyed it!

[@jtforjesus777]

Joe Rogan has been replaced. Thanks so much for what you do. This show is my FAVORITE.

[@barrygoldberg3729]
