    • Kim Kardashian on Unseen Solitude and Jay Shetty's InspirationDespite being in the public eye, finding alone time and self-expression is important. Prioritizing personal routines and learning from challenges in parenting and relationships can lead to growth.

      Kim Kardashian talks about the importance of being unseen and finding alone time amidst the madness of her busy life. She prioritizes her morning workout routine and car ride alone where she listens to music. She also shares her admiration for Jay Shetty's podcast which encourages people to express themselves in a more meaningful way. Despite showing all her faces to the world, she believes people pick and choose what they want to take from her. Kim also acknowledges the challenges of parenting, family dynamics, and relationships and shares her tips and learnings along the way.

    • The Importance of Compassion and Patience in nurturing RelationshipsShowing empathy and support for others as they grow and change is crucial in any relationship. It is important to listen to others' stories and allow them to evolve in their own unique way.

      Compassion and care are important in any relationship, including family. It is crucial to have patience for people as they grow and evolve at their own pace, without expecting them to reach the same level of self-awareness as you. Real love is being patient with others as they try to change and supporting them in their journey. Spending time with people and listening to their stories can expand your capacity for empathy and compassion. Self-work is not about preaching to others about the things you want to hear, but rather allowing them to grow and evolve in their own unique way.

    • The Power of Self-Work: Trusting your Inner Voice and Prioritizing your HappinessTrusting yourself and prioritizing your own happiness can lead to confidence, success and eliminating unnecessary stress. Choose happiness and open up new opportunities in life.

      Self-work, including methods such as meditation and exercise, differs for everyone. Trusting your inner voice and prioritizing your own happiness can lead to confidence and success. Putting yourself first does not mean disregarding others' feelings, but rather protecting your own heart and eliminating unnecessary stress. Choosing happiness can open up opportunities that may have seemed impossible.

    • Choosing Yourself: The Key to Positive Changes and Opportunities in LifePrioritize your own happiness, value loyal and supportive relationships, find solutions instead of complaining, and appreciate the stability and reliability of longstanding connections in both personal and professional life.

      Choosing yourself can bring positive changes and opportunities in life. Focus on your own happiness instead of trying to please everyone. Loyalty and supportive relationships are valuable, and it's important to not take things too seriously and find solutions instead of complaining. Longstanding relationships can indicate stability and reliability, and it's important to value them in both personal and professional aspects of life.

    • The Importance of Grounded Relationships and Adaptability in ParentingMaintaining strong relationships and adapting to challenges are key to finding pride and fulfillment in the parenting journey. Prioritizing valuable relationships and taking time for them is essential, even amidst the demands of everyday life.

      Maintaining strong relationships requires mutual respect and support, regardless of the different roles and challenges that may arise. Grounded relationships that are grounded in love contribute to a person's overall stability and sense of self. With parenting, there is never a right time to start. No amount of preparation can truly prepare you for the challenges and chaos that will come, but learning to adapt, understand, and appreciate each moment of the journey can bring a sense of pride and fulfillment. It is important to value the relationships that matter and make time for them, even amid the distractions and competing demands of success and everyday life.

    • The Lessons of Parenting: Finding Purpose and Meaning in the JourneyParenting is a complex journey that requires patience, effective communication, and consistent scheduling. As children grow older, the relationship between parent and child evolves, providing opportunities for deeper bonds, meaningful relationships, and lasting legacies.

      Parenting is a challenging yet rewarding job that teaches you a lot about yourself. It can bring out the best and worst in you, and sometimes it takes having multiple children to fully understand the lessons. Patience, scheduling, and communication are key, and it's important to appreciate the forever nature of parenting. As children grow older, the relationship evolves, and the struggles of the teenage years can lead to a deeper bond. Ultimately, parenting provides the opportunity to create meaningful relationships and legacies that transcend generations.

    • Kim Kardashian: Parenting and Fighting for JusticeKim Kardashian encourages her children to use their voices and speaks up for justice reform through her platform, making positive changes in the world.

      Kim Kardashian discusses her open and honest relationship with her children, and how she helps them navigate the nuances of her fame. Despite growing up in the public eye, Kim's children have a normal life, and she encourages them to use their little voices and speak up for themselves. Kim also talks about her journey into justice reform, sparked by seeing a case on social media that weighed on her heart. Through her interest in crime and solving things, she discovered there were thousands of cases that were unfair, and she felt compelled to do something. Kim's expression of purpose is using her voice and platform to make positive changes in the world.

    • Kim Kardashian's Journey to Empathy and Self-Acceptance.Kim Kardashian's experience advocating for criminal justice reform taught her the importance of second chances and appreciating the people and things in her life. Focusing on personal growth can lead to growth in how we judge and treat ourselves and others.

      Kim Kardashian's experience advocating for criminal justice reform led to increased empathy and a realization that many individuals lack opportunities to improve themselves. She now fights for second chances and encourages others to withhold judgment and instead focus on being happy and appreciative of the people and things in their lives. While Kim admits to being competitive, she is easy on herself and encourages others to be kinder to themselves in their internal dialogues. Personal growth in one area, like criminal justice reform, can also lead to growth in other areas, specifically in how we judge and treat ourselves and others.

    • The Importance of Surrounding Yourself with Like-minded PeopleIt's important to find people who share your values and beliefs but you can't force your beliefs on anyone. Positive peer pressure can be beneficial, but people have to go through their own journeys to grow. Make people feel welcomed and heard.

      It's important to surround yourself with like-minded people who share your values and morals. While it's natural to want to help others, you can't force your beliefs on someone who thinks differently. It's okay to let go and find people who align more with your core beliefs and values, rather than trying to mold them into what you want. Positive peer pressure can be healthy, but ultimately people have to go through their own journeys and lessons in order to grow. Kim Kardashian's biggest lesson from her mom is to make people feel warmly welcomed and heard.

    • The Power of Creating Meaningful Family Memories with Kim Kardashian.Spending quality time with loved ones and being present is crucial for building strong relationships and creating lasting memories. Balancing work and family time can be hard, but being present and giving time is what matters most.

      The importance of creating meaningful memories with family and loved ones is emphasized by Kim Kardashian in her conversation with Jay Shetty. Through spending time together and being present, children can learn to value strong relationships and create lasting memories. Kim also discusses the struggle of mom guilt and how finding balance between work and family time is important. Despite the difficulties of parenting, she emphasizes that being present and giving time is the most important thing parents can do. Kim's close relationships with her own family serve as inspiration for creating a strong family bond.

    • Kim Kardashian on Being a Positive Parenting Role ModelKim Kardashian writes her children letters documenting their growth, teaches them the value of pursuing passions and working hard, and makes their well-being and future success her top priority. She strives to inspire and make them feel loved and supported.

      Kim Kardashian shares her parenting journey and how she instills positive experiences and values in her children. She writes her kids a letter every year, documenting their growth, and includes silly memories and their favorite things. She also shows them the importance of pursuing passions and working hard. Kardashian acknowledges that being the best mom is challenging, but her kids see how much effort she puts into being a good role model. Despite occasional complaints from her kids, she continues to prioritize their well-being and future success. Through her actions, Kardashian strives to inspire her kids and make them feel loved and supported.

    • Kim Kardashian's Advice on Seizing Time, Trusting Your Gut, and Pursuing Your PassionsTime is precious, so make the most of your relationships. Trust your instincts and don't let conflicting advice overwhelm you. Give your best effort no matter what you do, and be fully present and dedicated in all aspects of life. Pursue your passions, as they are your path to success.

      Kim Kardashian emphasizes the importance of being present and making the most of relationships because time is limited. Losing a parent made her realize the value of time. She also advises against taking in too much advice and trusting one's gut, as conflicting advice can be overwhelming. Kim also shares that if she had to restart, she would pursue being a lawyer to help people. She believes that effort is the key to success, and one should always give their best no matter the job or situation. Being fully present and committed is crucial in all aspects of life.

    • Kim Kardashian's Journey on Valuing Life Experiences Over Material PossessionsAwareness in all aspects of life, finding purpose in difficult situations, and understanding that detachment means nothing owns you. Emotions should be acknowledged and used as an opportunity for growth rather than being suppressed.

      Kim Kardashian shares her experience of valuing material things and how life experiences have taught her that nothing is important. She learned this through experiencing multiple fires and realizing that she needed to focus on digitizing important memories rather than material possessions. Jay Shetty shares an Islamic proverb that states detachment doesn't mean owning nothing, it means nothing owns you. Kim agrees and shares that it's important to have awareness in all aspects of life, including relationships, material possessions, and emotions. She believes that it's okay to feel all the opposite emotions and go through them rather than holding them in. Kim also discusses the importance of finding purpose in difficult situations and using them as an opportunity for growth.

    • Kim Kardashian on Relationships, Heartbreak, and KindnessHolding on to relationships is important, but heartbreak should not destroy us. Take time, be mindful, and spread kindness. Sharing insights and being present help with growth and healing.

      Kim Kardashian believes that even though heartbreak is a part of our journey, relationships should be held on to even more preciously. She emphasizes the importance of not letting heartbreak destroy us and being at peace while also being a hopeless romantic. Kim believes in taking her time to not rush into things and being mindful of people who enter her life, especially when she has kids. She also believes in giving people second chances and fairness and thinks that spreading kindness is the solution to many problems in life.

    Dr. Rahul Jandial: What Your Nightmares Are Trying to Tell You & How to Know Which Dreams You Need to Pay Attention to

    Dr. Rahul Jandial: What Your Nightmares Are Trying to Tell You & How to Know Which Dreams You Need to Pay Attention to

    Do you often remember your dreams?

     

    What was the last dream you can remember?

     

    Today, let's welcome Dr. Rahul Jandial. Rahul is a dual-trained brain surgeon and neuroscientist based at City of Hope in Los Angeles. He leads the Jandial Lab, which explores the intersection of neurobiology and cancer. Beyond his research, Dr. Jandial is dedicated to global health, performing pediatric neurosurgery in charity hospitals across South America and Eastern Europe. He is also the author of the book "This Is Why You Dream," which delves into the science and significance of dreaming.

     

    Jay and Rahul explore the significance of dreams and their impact on our lives, and that the brain is highly active during sleep, generating as much electricity as when awake. This activity suggests that dreaming is not a passive process but an essential function for the brain, helping it process and rehearse experiences, emotions, and creativity.

     

    There are common themes in dreams, such as nightmares, erotic dreams, and motifs like falling or being chased. Rahul highlights that these themes are linked to the brain's imaginative and emotional networks, which are more active during dreaming. Nightmares, for instance, play a crucial role in developing a sense of self and other in children, while in adults, they can indicate unresolved emotional issues or trauma. He also discusses the concept of lucid dreaming, where one becomes aware of dreaming and can exert some control over the dream narrative. 

     

    In this interview, you'll learn:

    How to enhance dream recall

    How to induce lucid dreaming

    How to utilize dreams for creative problem solving

    How to reduce nightmare in children

    How to cultivate positive morning thoughts 

    How to improve sleep quality for better dreams

     

    Embrace the power of your dreams to boost creativity and emotional well-being. Take the first step tonight for a healthier, more vibrant tomorrow!

    Why There’s No Such thing As the Right Person at the Wrong Time & Why Your Ex Was Never The One

    Why There’s No Such thing As the Right Person at the Wrong Time & Why Your Ex Was Never The One

    Do you believe in "right person, wrong time"?

    Do you have realistic expectations about dating?

    Today, Jay will discuss the popular notion of the "right person at the wrong time." He explains that this idea often stems from nostalgia, which can distort our memories by emphasizing the positive aspects of past experiences and minimizing the negatives. This romanticized view of the past can prevent us from addressing present realities and hinder our ability to form healthy relationships.

    Jay also talks about the various factors that influence relationships, such as a person's relationship status, goals, and healing journey. He argues that a person's current circumstances, such as being newly single or single for a long time, significantly shape who they are and their readiness for a relationship. Furthermore, in a healthy relationship, partners should respect and support each other's goals rather than expecting complete alignment. He also highlights the importance of patience and mutual support in the ongoing process of healing from past traumas.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    How to align goals in a relationship

    How to manage expectations

    How to build a healthy relationship

    How to embrace new possibilities

    By letting go of romanticized notions of the past and embracing the present, we open ourselves to genuine connections. Be open, curious, and positive about dating, we can find meaningful and fulfilling relationships.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

    Do you ever spend time alone in silence? 

    Today, Jay sits down with Melinda French Gates, co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and founder of Pivotal Ventures to talk about her journey from studying computer science at Duke University to working at Microsoft, and eventually transitioning into philanthropy.

    Melinda highlights the importance of goal setting and quiet reflection, practices instilled in her from a young age; the challenges women and people of color face in achieving equality, emphasizing the need for more inclusive policies and support systems; and the importance of diverse representation in leadership and decision-making roles.

    Melinda shared insights into her parenting approach, emphasizing the importance of instilling values of kindness, responsibility, and giving back to society. She also shared her journey of grappling with the decision to publicly support contraceptive access, which conflicted with her Catholic faith. This decision involved deep reflection, discussions with family and friends, and a significant amount of time spent questioning and reconciling her beliefs. 

    Later in the conversation, Melinda highlighted several key lessons she learned later in life, such as the realization that the world is not equally accessible to everyone, particularly women and people of color. This understanding fueled her advocacy for creating more inclusive environments and breaking down barriers that prevent these groups from reaching their full potential​.

    Why do we always put things off until the last minute?

    How can we stop the habit of procrastinating?

    Today, let's welcome Rob Dial, host of the Mindset Mentor Podcast and author of "Level Up." Jay and Rob reminisce about their seven-year friendship, sharing how their mutual interests in mindset and Eastern spirituality brought them together. 

    The conversation delves into the role of fear in holding people back, with Rob distinguishing between primal fears (like pain and death) and intellectual fears (like failure and rejection). He offers strategies to overcome these fears by focusing on positive outcomes instead of negative possibilities. They also explore the topic of procrastination, with Rob emphasizing the importance of having a strong "why" to drive motivation and action. 

    Rob reflects on his spiritual journey and how silence and introspection have helped him find peace and purpose. He also shares the key lesson he has learned: what we seek externally is often something we need to find within ourselves.

    In this interview, you'll learn:

    How to overcome fear

    How to connect with your 'WHY'

    How to overcome procrastination

    How to change negative thought patterns

    How to accept and love all part of yourself

    Let's continue to seek deeper understanding and connection with themselves, emphasizing the value of inner peace and presence.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

    Why Love Is Not Enough & 5 Things to Focus On More in Dating & Relationships

    Why Love Is Not Enough & 5 Things to Focus On More in Dating & Relationships

    Do you and your partner share values?

    How do you support each other emotionally?

    Today, Jay taps into the  idea that love alone is not sufficient to sustain a healthy relationship. While love is important, other elements such as shared values, emotional maturity, consistent patterns of behavior, and trust are crucial for long-lasting partnerships. Societal norms often romanticize love, leading people to overlook these essential factors.

    Jay discusses the significance of understanding and respecting each other's values, as well as recognizing and addressing patterns of behavior. Emotional maturity, which involves managing and expressing emotions healthily, is highlighted as a key component of a stable relationship. Support and partnership are deemed more critical than love alone.

    In this episode, you'll learn:

    How to communicate your value to your partner

    How to develop emotional maturity

    How to support your partner's emotional growth

    How to build trust in your relationship

    Remember, love is important, but building a relationship on trust, values, and emotional maturity is key.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty
