As a recording artist, Selena has sold more than 210 million singles worldwide and has over 45 billion global streams. Her upcoming biographical documentary, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, is out right now. In 2019, she launched her beauty line, Rare Beauty, exclusively with Sephora.

Philanthropy and activism have been key pillars of her career and she's used her platform to advocate for many important causes. Selena has raised millions of dollars for charity including Global Citizen and Lupus Research Alliance.   Selena bravely tells her story about her long battle with mental health and how this led to her life mission to help spread mental health awareness around the world and provide mental health services for the less privileged. I get to deeply understand her inner thoughts on topics such as dealing with pressure of being a celebrity and the gossip that comes with it, finding self healing, embracing change, being one with your inner self, and living day by day being content, kind, and full of love to share. Life isn’t a simple journey, but despite the complications, challenges, and struggles, we can always find it in our hearts to tap into our inner good and be compassionate, especially to ourselves.   What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:04:21 Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me documentary00:06:59 Sharing our darkest secrets with others00:10:04 Befriending your own inner critic00:13:39 Learning to be more compassionate towards yourself and others00:18:59 Taking control of your own story00:26:04 Getting asked frustrating questions00:24:39 No one is perfect, even celebrities00:27:40 How do you deal with imperfections?00:33:03 Areas in your life that made you who you are00:35:07 Embracing change00:39:36 Mental health awareness00:43:59 You have to be aware of people00:48:10 How do you deal with fears?00:51:23 What is your intention?00:56:13 Sometimes parents project perfection around their children00:59:57 Pain, suffering, growth01:06:09 Wondermind - mental fitness01:09:30 You’ll figure it out, keep going01:12:18 Missteps parents may have taken01:23:07 Producing the series 13 Reasons Why01:27:50 Selena and Mandy on Final FiveEpisode ResourcesSelena Gomez | WebsiteSelena Gomez | FacebookSelena Gomez | TwitterSelena Gomez | InstagramSelena Gomez | YouTubeDo you want to meditate daily with me?

A celebrated speaker and bestselling author, Dr. Gabor Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics, such as addiction, stress, and childhood development. Dr. Maté has written several bestselling books, including the award-winning In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction; When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress; and Scattered Minds: The Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder. He is also the co-author of Hold On to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers. His works have been published internationally in more than thirty languages.Dr. Maté generously shares his deep understanding of childhood trauma, vulnerability, grief, and emotional distress. He explains what real trauma is and how time doesn’t necessarily lead to healing, how vulnerability is ingrained in us since we are young and the importance of these formative years to mold our emotional health, and the societal expectations we always try to meet but have never truly given us real fulfillment. We also exchange thoughts on dealing with grief, how we struggle to identify with the people we look up to, and how childhood experience varies for every child even when they are raised in a similar environment.Trauma is a wound that has not fully healed which can be triggered at any point in our life so it matters that we are able to find a common ground and stay firm in what can give us healing, emotional stability, and happiness.What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:03:12 How do you define trauma?00:06:32 How is healing defined?00:08:45 Time itself does not heal emotional wounds00:11:38 We are all born vulnerable00:13:55 The inherent expectations we all have00:20:00 The societal standards we try to live up to00:25:15 It’s not possible to love kids too much00:29:35 Grief is essential for life00:32:19 When the past dominates the present reactions00:35:16 There is no healthy identification00:42:11 Why are we set on things staying the same00:44:38 No two children have the same childhood00:50:19 The difference between loneliness and being alone00:53:54 How do you see human nature?01:02:24 Suffering has to be acknowledged01:06:27 Getting closure and start moving on01:10:04 Spirituality becomes commoditized01:15:56 Dr. Maté on Final Five:Episode ResourcesGabor Maté | WebsiteGabor Maté | InstagramGabor Maté | TwitterGabor Maté | BooksThe Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic CultureDo you want to meditate daily with me?

Today, I will be sharing about setting boundaries in our relationships. When we aren’t used to setting them, we may find it difficult to start setting one. Having one makes us value our self worth so much more and will help encourage others to treat us with respect.I start by talking about the consequences of breaking our boundaries, especially with the boundaries we had for our old self, how we should start becoming aware of them and build up new ones, and then start sharing these boundaries to our partner to let them understand where we stand. We also have the five types of boundaries we should start practicing.  Key Takeaways:00:00:00 Intro00:01:12 Setting boundaries in relationships00:06:42 What happens when we break our own boundaries00:07:14 Become aware of all your boundaries00:09:15 Set your past behind 00:10:07 Express your boundaries to your partner00:16:40 Type #1: Friendship boundary00:18:05 Type #2: Ideas boundary00:19:29 Type #3: Financial boundary00:21:18 Type #4: Alone time boundary00:23:00 Type #5: Purpose boundaryLike this show?
