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

[TheGhashish]

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.

[saramoreorless]

She is a profound source of compassion, common sense and respect for other people.

[kitotapgono]

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)

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 😍

[talaatelobeidy]

"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

[koroglurustem]

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

[maddiemarin]

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.

[doneshaberryhill]

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

"Certainty is the enemy of change."

[anneruthbarrett]

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.

[scheck]

Ms Perel is probably the wisest person I've ever listened to. She doesn't just communicate academic insights into the psychology of relationships, she has the deep understanding of how modern life has shaped our larger emotional experience.

[walterchabala]

This stuff is so good it hurts.Simply blown away by the mastery of subject, delivery of content and authencity.

[agnesrusso]

She speaks and gives these amazing talks in 9 languages around the worlds.

[ChocolateJewels]

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

[monicadub]

*soft skills… that’s a term I haven’t heard in a while. I was just talking to my boss about it, their take “how great technology is” and I kept asking how about soft skills and reaching out to (employees) at a human level? How about building connections?” Love this woman. She’s brilliant!

[jannalee]

Esther Perel is ALWAYS ON THE MONEY. She totally nails it!

[camillacaban]

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

[erica]

Grateful for her knowledge, admire her passion to deliver truth and methods on how to help improve your overall life and relationships.

[smurfiennes]

My neighbors are my friends for half of my life. Each of them has a key to get into my home to take care of it whilst I’m away. That’s the beauty of a country life.
