Top Moments with Time Stamps I was saved by my high school 5:35 It was a special school which allowed u to be there if u had skills. From 7th grade to senior year, I had art ability. In my household, we cannot do a lot, as mum was too religious. My schoolmates told me the films they saw. I could not see any. So I would draw these films! I wanted to watch, to be there so bad! My mum allowed comic books. I found out in therapy 6:24 my desire to be strong is that one day I may have to kill my father. He was that type of person. It was a very intense upbringing. I just wanted to be a person to keep the peace- I became a pleaser. My mum 11:18 loved entertainment. We’d watch the Carol Burnett show. Every Sat Night. I look for ways to make her laugh. In all this pain, I saw this ability to make her laugh. This is a power. This will cool things out. This was most of my existence when I was a little boy. My wife looked at me 59:00 Rebecca: ‘Terry u are different! [Terry is in tears.] After all we have been through, Terry I am with you. Thank goodness I stuck with you.’ Thank you for this lecture!

I love that Steven allows his guest to just talk, doesn’t interrupt them and lets them speak their truth with plenty of time to get their full explanation across to the audience.

You don’t get interviews like this unless your guest feels incredibly comfortable and at ease. Terry is able to be this authentic because that’s what Stephen calls forth in people. What an incredible gift Stephen is to the world, very few people can hold a safe space allowing people to be this vulnerable. It’s a testament to something Stephen brings of himself to these interviews that calls forth truth, quite possibly because Stephen has done his own work, resulting in the most heartfelt interviews I’ve ever heard. These interviews will save lives. Thank you so much. Just incredible and yes I’m in tears. 😊 X

It’s inspiring to hear someone talk vulnerably enough explaining how they worked through generations of abuse.

I cannot stress on how relatable, true, pure, therapeutic and simply inspirational this podcast was! My level of respect and admiration for Terry Crews has skyrocketed while listening to this. It isn't easy to be this blunt and true about yourself when you're a public figure like he is, and I'm so happy he is living his truth and telling his story out to the world like this.

Wow, thank you so much Terry. Sharing your agonisingly painful childhood experiences gives other’s permission to share their pain and know from your example, what’s possible on the other side. I also want to thank Steven, your humility is gift.

This is one of the best interviews I ever saw in English language. And what a relief for every human to understand that the very moment we accept and embrace our vulnerability, we are more a man or a women than we are without, because it simply means to accept the fact of being human. This also includes to accept mortality. And the very moment we stop acting like there is no tomorrow, while also acting like we are living forever... then we get humble and the healing kick in. Much love from Germany.

I never even paused or took my eyes off of this video. Absolutely incredible and vulnerable and packed with growth and goodness. As he said necessary. Just necessary. I pray for healing of this world. Our roots run deeper than just now. Cycles work, until they don't. Break your cycle, even if all your doing is carrying someone else's trauma as your own.

Another amazing conversation. This one was very heartfelt, raw, genuine and very insightful. Thank you Terry for opening your life, lessons, experiences and for being YOU! Very inspirational. Many blessings and gratitude for these life changing conversations Steve 🙌🏼

Wow I wasn't expecting such depth and honesty! So many parts are relatable and I really hope this will help men to be more vulnerable. I've ordered Terry's book and I can't wait to read it and then pay it forward. Thank you

This made me cry, what a beautiful soul this man is!! ❤❤❤

Wow. An emotional punch of an interview. What bravery from Terry and tact from the interviewer to give him space to be vulnerable. Outstanding 🏆

I can relate to Terry on so many levels. Born in 86 and not much was changed back then. My mother did the same thing with the public hair and demanded to see my body and touch my body to see if it was growing (in puberty). I loved White Chicks - it was one of my fav movies as a teen and loved Terry in it - and then Brooklyn 99 was one of my favs - I love seeing happy and fun Terry - but I love and appreciate even more the raw and truthful Terry who tells it how it is and is making changes for other men and people to be better and do better.

What an incredibly brave and honest man. This conversation will have helped so many people that can relate, good on you 😊❤

One of the most captivating interviews I've ever watched and listened too. I was a fan of Terry before the interview, now I am so much more. Mad respect to him for opening up in such a way and not holding back. And mad respect to Steven for having Terry on and giving him the freedom and room to speak his full piece. Wicked interview. Truley awesome!

Wow this is extremely healing. Thank you so much ❤I have the same parents as Terry and went through similar sexual abuse that broke my mental state and I escaped with similar shame addictions ocd so I really needed to watch this video to accept and love myself ❤

Powerful testimony Terry. More power to you and your family man. Really appreciate guests who show that they are human. Inspirational stuff.

The amount of honesty, vulnerability and willingness to break one’s ego and be truthful not with anyone else, but with oneself is something 99 percent of the population will never do, far less someone in a position of power like Terry. This has truely inspired me to seek therapy for my own skeletons. To look at them in the face instead of hiding them deeper. I respect and admire this man for him allowing the world in, and for the self reflection he has done.

Can’t believe I left this one waiting for so long to watch, one of the best podcasts of yours, sad that I relate so much to the things said here but I guess why this might be my D-day in a way. Gotta get that book now
