"I am very confident when I talk but that doesn't mean I am right." - brilliant woman.

one of those moments when you think that internet is one of the best things happened to you. Pure gold of knowledge poured over here. Total gratitude for Esther and everyone else involved.

3:02 Is it only me who noticed that kiss from the guy in black cap to the woman next to him raising her hand - what a support 😍

Esther Perel is the type of person society should glorify, and look up to as we celebrities, for her intellect and emotional intelligence helps solve many of our problems. Can we stop idolising people using useless criteria such as looks and bank account (unless they are an Elon Musk)

I’m happy I found her.

Her old lectures were pretty much the same content, but this one is new. I like her language, so very eloquent and concise !

She said, "That's F*cked Up!!!" I love her.

"the way you treat the other that ultimately tells you who you are". that just hit me deep, being in both situations, an alien and a native myself
@agnesrusso4192 5 years ago

She speaks and gives these amazing talks in 9 languages around the worlds.
@doneshaberryhill5671 2 years ago

I love her way of thinking she reaches out to the audience and doesn’t speak AT you but to you .
@maddiemarin7301 2 years ago

It was chilling when she mentioned : “How you treat others tells a lot about yourself” Much of the current society seems self consumed, blame, and poor me mentality. They (in general) talk of gratitude yet hearing a thank you in the course of one’s day is rare.

This is one of the best talks I have heard in a very long time.

Can't get enough of her beautifully expressed wisdom....a voice of clarity beckoning us to our inner voice amidst the confusion of our irrational chaotic world today....thank you for being a beacon on my path.
@ChocolateJewels 4 years ago

She is brilliant. I find myself pausing the video so I can take notes. Talk gets really interesting around 8:00 and onward.
