Rita seems like such a beautiful person… great interview as always!
This was incredible. And ...real. I view her so differently now. And I have so much respect for her.
If you ever get the chance to invite Bishop Briggs, please do. I always wanted to hear her whole side of things. She has so much to say.
Thanks for having me 💗
You are beautiful inside and out.
im so proud of you
I can’t believe she actually replied back .. that’s so cool
Greetings from Croatia ❤
Thank you Rita. I mean really thank you. This conversation opened my eyes up so much... I will forever be grateful ❤
YES. You can totally get panic attacks about panic attacks. It’s so nice to hear someone else say that because it’s so real and I feel less talked about
Yep I get it all the time and it really affects my life :(
HELLO, I HAVE OFYEN BEEN THERE. I DO UNDERSTAND ...
I HAVE KNOWN TOTAL AND PROFOUND DESPAIR FOR MANY YEARS... INITIALLY FROM SIMPLY FEELING SO TERRIBLY INSECURE; FOLLOWED BY THE BEGINNING OF INCREDIBLY DEEP DEPRESSION; THEN THE SENSE OF BEING A TOTAL FAILURE IN LIFE AND THUS THE BEGINNING OF ABSOLUTELY AWFUL; TRULY UNBEARABLE AND TERRIFYING PANIC ATTACKS... FOLLOWED BY THE INEVITABLE SELF HARMING FOR HAVING FAILED MY INCREDIBLE SONS AND THE WORLD AND THE DESIRE SIMPLY TO DIE AND GO TO OUR LOVING FATHERS'S ARMS AND MOREOVER HAVING FAILED MY MOST BEAUTIFUL GOAL AND DREAM IN LIFEI ... TO BE THE PERFECT MOTHER. ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT MY BEAUTIFUL BLESSED SONS AND FAMILY MEAN TO ME AND WHICH ENDED UP IN CONTINUOS SUICIDE ATTEMPTS AND BEING RECOVERED IN HOSPITAL SO OFTEN AND FOR SO MANY MONTHS. TODAY, YEARS LATER AFTER ALL THE MANY HORRORS I HAVE LIVED THROUGH I HAV3 NEVER BEEN SO HAPPY; HOPEFUL; JOYFUL AND GRATEFUL
Me too, been battling this lately 😢
@@AnabananaBeautyI wish it never happened to me. It's the worst feeling ever.
I tripped over "therapy in a nutshell " on you tube. No assoc other than have found it helpful. Its worth a gander when it comes s down to knowladge is power on anxiety and panic disorders.
Glad to see Rita looking relaxed, not trying too hard, not showing off....just being authentic....au naturalle suits her...I love her voice and hope to hear more in the future
Never seen her like this
How does this guy always get to the core of human existence every podcast?! It's amazing. Great job Team!
Facts
He got that sparkle n glitter
its because he actually listens and is very calming
Him being a Monk previously probably helps him to connect a lot because he knows how to block out all distractions and solely focus on who he’s interviewing 🌸🌸🌸🌸

Every child from an immigrant family can relate to the pressure of doing your parents proud; doing well is our way of saying thank you for the sacrifices made to give me better opportunities, your hard work didn’t go to waste.
It’s not just migrants that it happens with it also happens with Neurodiverse people as well
This applies across the board rather one is an immigrant or not
Her parents were not poor, bcs them she could get opportunities to be a singer
@@mstiffanyY as At and a at A AN 😊 😊
@@mstiffanyyes it does, but re-starting their life to an unknown world while dealing with the war trauma, they left behind in their country, has a different meaning and soul impact.
I think she is the ultimate display of what happens when people put too much stock into you, and you don’t live up to the expectation. Rita Ora came out in 2011/2012 when Rihanna was STILL THRIVING. And there was many comparisons. I can honestly say she didn’t have a SOLID HIT on her hands but managed to still relevant on the market FOR YEARS through tabloid headlines and TV cameos. I never saw her as an artist with a driving passion for music, but more so of a socialite. But, her story is so compelling, to hear how her life changed and the ultimate pain this career caused her.
she has zero credibility as character. Zero. And I'm saying this as someone who loves so much her music, especially at start, the niche tracks and the unreleased ones (while her main music is honestly super generic). I love also her looks, hair-styles, fashion and I'm saying it seriously.
I mean, she's not that ordinary classy, but she has a style my female side loves.
Edgy, slutty, classy, surely a bit forced, all combined and catching eyes anyway.
Sadly, she has tons of hypocrisy, victimhood, inconsistency, incoherency, stretched versions to rebrand and repair after a different concept sold before and various dramas. All these are main traits as voice, talents, beauty, looks are in her arsenal.
On the other hand, she's a damn interesting concept in all her over-exposed, multi-tasking no sense full of contradictions trajectory.
She sums up all the best and all the worst that can be in this society, especially the hyper-consumerist post-social media one.
But in the end, what should her career teach? At the end of the day she had lost quite everything of the immense potential she always had and it happened multiple times through her journey.
ORA era hadn't a follow up, then also the second label stop supporting her after Phoenix one. Do we want to talk about all the nonsense she did in between? No, I did it thousands of times and it clearly shows how everything was not industry or anxiety (LOL) fault.
When she was lost in the darkness without anything around her, she hooked up with a 50 yo man who already had kids with another woman in a previous life, like it was kind of life lottery or fairytale and bla bla bla. Truth is he's a Hollywood director successful enough to rebrand her and open new horizons after 20s as blagger and industry hoe who sowed only scorched earth. On music planes, she has less impact than ever these days, despite the whole payola and all the tactics she uses wit her sister.
And this should be considered a victory or something deserving stories, podcasts and so on?
I call it a manifest for social climbing and giving a winning image even though you are losing.
In the end she's everywhere trying to convince everybody. Evidently the first not that convinced is herself...
@@leonardofabbri7930Wow, so did you simply compile a bunch of lines that every critic has ever written, or are you attempting to impress TMZ with your own made-up bs? How can you definitively say such things about a person you don’t even know? It’s so pathetic and sad that people think they can just say whatever they want about someone and present it as fact. Imagine a total stranger writing a load of rubbish about you, reinterpreting every aspect of your life through their lens to where it’s totally ridiculous, yet they put it out into the world of for gullible people to believe. She’s a real person navigating her way through this world, while also having to deal with a horrible industry that just loves to chew you up and spit you out. She’s entitled to figure it out for herself without having the added bs of people talking crap. At the end of the day, what you say about others does not define who THEY are, it defines who YOU are.
I totally agree.....
🤦🏼♀️
@@lilypiscak3296 I'm a fan of Rita's talent, voice, music, looks, performances (when she really performs, like it happened in Berlin during late 2019).
You can't even imagine how much.
I always listen to Love and War, Been Lying, Roc the Life, Grateful, Solid Ground, Lay Down Your Weapons, Coming Home, Falling to Pieces, Velvet Rope, Ritual, Radioactive, New Look, For You and other gems of her discography.
She has immense talent and great vocals. At start of her career she was everything, prettiest girl in the world with amazing potential. I damn loved her r'n'b days.
As character in all her evolution is everyday more clownesque, full of hypocrisy, extremely money oriented, constantly calling for attention since success not happening.
She never managed to give her trajectory coherence and identity, while she jumped from a bed to another and tried anything to survive in an industry where she perennial acts like a victim, when in reality she's the perfect user.
These days she acts like an independent artist, well she goes nowhere without a proper team giving her a foundation and the not existing charts of latest album talk.
Even the type of interview here actually presents nothing specific and different than what she has always put in circle to rebrand herself through the years.
And the fake tears after ten seconds say everything you need.
I care zero about your opinion. I exposed facts. I told u in reality I've always been a massive fan of her.
Believe me or not, currently I have her at 2012 EMA as home wall on my phone.
For the exact reason, I can notice all the things that kept her away from really being the next big thing she was supposed to be and I say things for what they are.
Rita, thank you for sharing! As a long time sufferer from depression, anxiety, OCD and ADHD. It is encouraging to see people that are well known around the world speak up on their own personal struggles with anxiety and other high profile people speaking out about Mental Illness in their lives. For years there has been a ugly stigma associated with Mental Illness and because of this thousands of people with mental illness either did not seek help or didn't have anyone they could confide in to help encourage them to continue pursuing help or to get help. Unfortunatly many of these people didn't seek help and ended up trying to end their lives, many succeded. We still have a long ways to go in breaking down this wall of stigma and ignorance about mental illness. I have a neighbor who just this past weekend came over to my house and said point blank to my face that Mental Illness is not a physical illness, that it is caused by sin or something spiritual. I have lived with TRD(treatment resistance depression) for most of my life with little to no remission. I never gave up even though I have suffered almost 40 years in the darkness, I did have some good times, but there were more bad than good. Three weeks ago I took charge of my health and insisted that the doctor needed to do something different, the medications were not working. On my insistance he called the TMS Treatment Administrator into the room. She looked at my chart and was shocked that the doctor had not immediatly recognized that I was a prime candidit for TMS Therapy. Long story short, I am on week 3 of an intense 6 week TMS Therapy regimin and from my very first treatment, that night, my depression was gone! Some people react suddenly like I did, but others it may take weeks into the therapy to see results. Bottom line: Top priority is your health, don't worry about the stigma or the people who are just uneducated about the facts of mental illness. Pursue your health and wellbeing, put yourself first because the most important thing is you being able to live a life that you can be happy and persue all your lifes abitions. If one course of treament for whatever Mental Illness does not work for you, don't give up, continue the process of finding what will heal your mind. You deserve a good life and it is achievable.
Wow! Beautifully said, straight to the point and sooo dann honest!! Big Bravo for not giving up and for sharing that fool of hope message with all of us🙏 Even the feeling that “I’m not alone” is s huge change for all of us! Do never give up and good luck with life!!!🍀🍀🍀 massive hug from Krakow 🇵🇱🫶🤙🤗
❤
Your friends had right ,we past anxiety,depro,panic attacks,like family and happened all fom a bad spirit that I saw with my eyes,it was veryy difficult,,buy believing to the god,praying everything passed thanks god
Hey did you find anything for ur ocd I’m really struggling
Thank you for your comment and your honesty 😊
Wonderful interview with Rita Ora! I was hooked by Rita’s calm & genuine honesty & easy charm. I didn’t know a huge amount about Rita before. Now I do! So lovely to hear her speak about kindness, care, insecurities & love. The fact that Rita mentioned Kylie Minogue is MAGIC!!! This is one of your best interviews! Thank you all ❤️
I didn't know a single thing about Rita Ora before this apart from maybe a couple of songs. What a lovely and insightful lady. The comment about "being at your lowest point... well you better start climbing" really resonated. Only you can change your life ❤
Couldn't agree more with your comment. Well said 👍💜
This interview somehow really embraced the feeling of hope in me, so I just wanted to thank you two and the whole team so much for that empowerment❤
She still didn’t expose the damage Jay Z did to her there’s still fear there.
Exactly. That's thr reason I watched it. She's still scared to talk about it. I pray that God give her the strength to do it.
One of the best interviews I have ever gone through completely. Rita Ora is an inspiration! So humble, so genuine, so real, so original. A great human being. ✅
I've been following Rita's journey. After her initial success she literally disappeared. Whenever this happens it's upsetting because I think of the talent being wasted.
Once I read bits and pieces of what she went through my heart just broke for her. I'm happy for her ability to work on her terms and for the success in her personal and professional life.
I’m confused by her background. She apparently came from poverty yet she lived in ladbrok grove / Notting Hill, in a pub, her parents had degrees and were educated, and she wen to the Sylvia young theatre school. Something doesn’t add up. How can you have grown up poor yet lived in a pub in Notting Hill etc etc
@@lukewilliams7020because her family came from war. She’s from Kosovo and they were victims of Ethnic cleansing and they migrated to the UK. Her parents and family are the definition of self made. Even within her own community she was the first ethnic Albanian singer to make it.
@@lukewilliams7020
She came from a war torn country. Growing up in a pub, having a degree or going to drama school doesn’t mean you’re necessarily well off. You can grow up poor and end up rich, also pub landlords don’t tend to be wealthy people
@@lukewilliams7020 she sells BS, it's simple. If you are a real fan of hers and if you have followed everything of her, you know she's the perfect imposter of the post-social media society. Marketing, using stretched versions to build narratives, connections, social climbing abilities and other stuff let her rise and get money despite she wasted multiple times her chances in the music industry.
A thing that happened thousand of times in her career, in which she blames the system for everything was around her fame, when she always wanted it and she's also a perfect user of everything is around.
@@leonardofabbri7930 that’s interesting, what opportunities did she waste?
This episode means so much to me. I wasn't exactly a big fan of Rita before "You only love me" came out, and it still took all these months to actually become a proper fan following and loving her for who she is. And today, listening to this interview, my bond with her changed again. I did like her music, but now I love most her message. I related to one or two songs of her, and now I relate to her ideals and values completely. I am like her. I get her so much, even though our stories are completely different. This story really opened my eyes, my perspective changed and became so much clearer and better. Thank you for this interview. Thank you Rita for opening up to us ❤️
I truly hope that this angel is freed from the demon that is Jay Z. She is such a sweet sweet spirit. I used to think I was the only one who had constant panic attacks. To hear somebody like Rita Ora talk about her struggles with mental health is truly inspiring. I'm trying to break into the music industry as well so hearing stories like Rita Ora is truly inspiring and lets me know I'm not alone.
This woman is rooted in self and is aware of her own humanness and the process of continuing to wrestle and unravel the things that are not true to who she is.
One of the most amazing, genuine, humanity centered interviews of all time. What a treasure you are, Rita! ❤
I'm 58. I am listening to this entire interview, and I do feel so inspired. I just accidentally stumbled across this channel. I felt I had to subscribe because Rita has been so,,, open and honest, so strong in so many ways. Im not a pop star. However, I was able to relate to so many of the things she said about family and just wanting to be a good human. I literally took notes as you both talked. I'm working on myself, and with all the ups and downs I've had in my life, I can relate to still feeling so grateful. Thank you ( both) so much for such a compelling, open, and honest interview. Young lady, you are a gem. Im so glad you found love.
By the way, I saw your A.D. Open door video. Gorgeous in every way.
Well I am a pop star so I completely relate.
I am close in age to u. Felt same. So inspired by her path, resillent parents, not much guidance but rather tried and tried and kept going. Keep exploring... there is such a vast world of great people, ideas, expiramentation. Get out of the bubbles and breathe!!
Thank you Rita for being sooo transparent. As an author it does get challenging at times. There are moments when I just want to throw it all in but my passion for writing will not allow me to. I am learning to trust the process and be intentional with how I navigate the journey. I am inspired and empowered by how open and honest you are. I am hopeful. May you be blessed in all your endeavours. Cheers to new beginning and greater experience. x
I think this episode is one of the most relatable. I watch/listen to a lot of Stephen’s episodes and many of them you feel like a fly on the wall and are incredibly informative and eye-opening but listening to this, you can’t help but be reflective of yourself? Great listen for sure
this is your most inspiring, educational podcast Steven, the way rita talks so much about herself has really helped me
Amazing conversation. Thank you Rita for sharing your story. And thank you to the Team for bringing us these amazing stories!❤
RITA is do underrated and talented singer! Never hated her, always was inspired! Love her❤
The interviewer didn’t delve into what happened with Jay-Z. Rita indicated that possibly Jay was not honest or candid with her. Listeners what to hear more about their parting ways.
It’s not are business. If Rita wants to talk about that she will . Let it Be.❤
@@janeenclark8728I don’t think this is the right platform for that sort of question. Considering what is swirling around about PDidd and JZ, not a good question to be asking.
@janeenclark8728 and if she keeps her mouth shut about the abuse she's part of the problem
He's a creep and definitely groomed her
Jay Z is about to end up in Prison one of these years, so better leave that topic alone.
I think Rita, you love your Mum so much that’s why you’re feeling is heavy seeing her suffering in pain
I don’t listen to her or her style of music and the last thing I thought I would do is watch an hour and twenty minute interview of her but here I am. She’s a well rounded individual, very mature and well spoken, too. Not to mention very beautiful. I’m glad I watched it.
Quarter life crisis is a very real thing , particularly for women. Congratulations Rita on doing the work so early in your life. Your story is a gift of inspiration to so many 🙏🏽💕🙏🏽💕.
How Rita describes alcohol and waking up in silence is so true. Been trying to break out of the constant weekend cycle of drinking all the time now that I've just entered my 30s, difficult when ALL your friends love alcohol and drinking during their free time. But yeah, those nights are fun but it gets old.
Then stop and get new friends
Forget what your friends love…do you love drinking alcohol during your free time? If the answer is no then the cycle is broken and you’ll stop. I’ve been there before and realized my friends were an anchor sinking me to the abyss.
I’ve recently decided to give up alcohol as it was starting to become a bit of a problem in my life. I’m a bit older though I’m in my mid 30s.
A lot of people find in the early days of giving up the best way is to just distance yourself from places you usually drink. Suggest to your mates things which don’t involve alcohol, if all the want to do is drink then they ain’t your real mates anyway.
If you chose to take up healthier hobbies you will make new friends anyway 100% Unfortunately drinking is such a big part of our culture but it doesn’t have to be
@@MiniMausTruckerKee Mostly these people are basicaly addicts. Though they may label themselves as fun persons, easy going, party people. They are addicts. They need the self medication alcohol offers : numbness, no boundaries, megalomania. Usually these drinking friends CANNOT stop. Unless detox. (And often they are adult children of alcohlics/addicts). Alcoholism is a cultural and a generational thing. Learned behavior. Ethanol (a chemical in alcohol) damages brain tissue. And other organs. Your selfrespect. And human relationships.
Very moderate drinking.... like in most southern European countries.... ALWAYS at meal/dinner...max 1 or 2 glasses... slowly eating at long tables...socializing and laughing ....is enjoying a glass of good wine.
Getting sloshed in one hour is ridiculous. IMHO. Also painful to witness. These people going to waste.
What really helped me get out of it was finding purpose, something to show up for the next day. Basically I love writing but I have a regular job and at one point I decided that I wanted to write a little bit everyday no matter what, and a bit more on the weekends. Once I started that, I realized I was sabotaging myself everytime I drank on Friday & Saturday nights because then I'd wake up feeling hangover and usually I'd end up not being able to write anything the entire day. It quickly became frustrating, like "why do I keep doing this to myself if it gets in the way of something I really want to do?" The first time I went to a friend's house and didn't drink anything felt a bit weird but the more I did it, the more I appreciated feeling fresh the whole weekend. Not sure this helps, but I'm thinking anything you look forward to could be used as motivation.
I've heard a few of Rita's songs over the past few years, but I never knew anything about her until this interview. Wow! A very interesting person! Reminds me a lot of Jessie. Sure, there's the British accent, but there's also the humble confidence, the self-awareness, emotional intelligence, the independence, the loyalty, etc. Great interview!
Wow!!! Absolutely beautiful, professional, and compassionate interviewer. My 1st time here, won’t be the last. I really enjoyed your interaction with Rita, she’s so pleasant and humble. I wish her a world of success.
What a fantastic interview! This flowed like a conversation between long-time friends. AMAZING! First time on this channel and first time hearing Rita Ora. I've only seen her (red carpet, magazines, etc..) but never heard her music... I will now!!
You have done the best interviews I've ever watched and heard, honestly, thank you
This host makes everyone cry. He knows how to tap into the emotional side of his guests.
Rita and Steven sitting and chatting just injected an extra dose of motivation and optimism. Thanks guys.
Living in New Zealand 🇳🇿 Rita Ora your singing voice, is for me; outstanding. As a world 🌎 wide,
in huge demand person within the musical industry and film, your personality is gripping in intellect; bless you.❤😊
I've always loved Rita from day 1 but this interview really showed me a different side of her.
This is truly a great interview, calm, genuine and just so insightful 🥰😍❤️
He has the ability to make it feel like I'm eavesdropping on someone's therapy session and always shows a side to these individuals that I wouldn't have experienced otherwise. Pure magic! ❤
I love you so much Rita. You are truly my idol. You are a fighter, warrior, a beautiful soul. So inspiring!!! Such beauty, grace and truth. Bless you ❤
I haven’t seen Rita Live, but the early performances you could see she’s the real deal - owns the stage
What incredible human being is she,so normal and true reflection of most people.
Steven and Rita, this was amazing!! Much love from South Africa.
“My life is my work” hits me hard. Thanks for making me rethink today.
Oh my gosh, Rita is so lovely! I’ve been a fan of hers since How We Do, but had no idea she was like this. Not sure what I thought, I’ve see her live many times and I guess it’s that fake confidence she talks about that had me fooled.
Also only 3 albums? Why did I think there were more!
Great to hear her story, thank you both for this insight ❤
Never heard of Rita until now. Gotta check her music now. She seems actually like a human and not a caricature of what the industry pushes. Thx!
Always loved Rita and this was great to see and hear another side of her life and thoughts. Thank you Rita and Steven 💗🙏🏻
She probably wasn't allowed to say but it was Jay Z and Beyonce and the rest of the Roc Nation team that let her down with empty promises thats why she left
as a young artist/ singer, it is so inspiring to hear RIta's story💓 love this
I never knew of Rita, until she started dating a talented Maori man I did know of.. Taika Waititi. I then watched the show where she took us through her home.. she seemed so humble and real... i can see exactly why a humble NZ lad fell for her... she seems beautiful inside and out! ❤
Stephen, your interviews are so interesting. Thank you for what you do!
Thank you for sharing so openly and honestly , Rita Ora. I’m 40 yrs your senior but I’m going to go buy your record.. I feel Ill love it:). Best to your future!❤
A lot of kindness comes through with Rita in that she truly cares what others think of her. I think her strong sense of family gave her a great base to go from and her hubby has the sense of humour she has too.
Just wanted to say your videos both educate and inspire me on a daily basis and have already helped me start my own business. Thanks to you and the team for your passion and great guest selection 👏
I have always admired and adored Rita. To Rita I would like to say "I see you". Much love, respect and blessings from South Africa.
One of my favourite interviews. Thank you both.
It really is a sad state of affairs when so many successful people live in a world of " lack".....they don't seem to enjoy living in moment ....they seem to be always chasing down the future. I did enjoy her interview😊
1O mins in and I already have a totally different impression of Rita, a VERY positive one. What a fighter resilient talented woman.
Thank you, Rita. Thank you for being so wonderfully honest; caring, unique, and such a beautiful person
Her story about her 20s completely resonates with me. It's really touching when she says she has everyone in the boat and has to sustain it (as one of her motivation)
What an open, honest, transparent interview!!! But wait… ALL the interviews are like this 😊. Fantastic interviewer & guests. ❤️ Rita Ora. Love her.
This was a really good interview and I love Rita’s story and how deep she is and how in touch she is with her inner world. Even though she said that she did a lot of therapy…I think that she came to a lot of these realizations on her own. BTW I’ve seen the tour of her home she did online and I love it. Now I understand what is beyond her style. Go Rita!
Steven, you have some of the best interviews on the Internet.
This is such an amazing story! Thank you for sharing Rita x
Like i feel like id love to write you a letter in response, its so unbelievable. Good for you, you had such an unhill dtruggle but you, i cant explain it, like there is such a sunny and calm persona which i didnt expect and really inspiring because i cant explain it, you just seem such a lovely person.
I worked in breast cancer services for years and one thing i noticed is women get breast cancer after a major trauma rather than genetics. Like after a partner cheats or dies and a child being ill, so fleeing the war probably did that. Most 39 yr olds havent been through that X
Thats the other thing, you mum has gone through cancer but you dont let that define your life, i got ro be honest, my mum got sick 20 yrs ago and had been battling ever since but it has really impacted me, and you seem to planted and firm mentally which is really amazing because when things throw your life into chaos like that its very difficult to stay grounded. Im so glad i saw this today, you are amazing dude! Xxx
Rita is a true star.🌟
Glad I’m not alone feeling these emotions.. knew Rita was humble and down to earth.. she’s proper real & honest
Rita Ora you are so well spoken and put words to what so many of us feel - thank you - and once again Steven I think brings out the best in people and helps them feel so comfortable and able toe express more from the heart.
Amazing. I am Rita fan from the beginning. I have gone her concert in 2012 in Istanbul. I didn't stop listening to her since. Watching this makes me a bit sad and at the same time it made me happy to see that she gets professional helps. She has grown so fast in this industry. While watching this video I felt like I am watching Kylie Minogue ; she is talking about her experience in this industry - Impossible Princess Period- ; How media/label were hard on her. Rita comes from survivor family and she is smart enough to learn from her mistakes.
So weird but i did the same thing when my mum had cancer, i was reading encyclopedias & goggle everything i could find out about organic super foods then getting them into my mums deits, Even shoplifting super multivitamins from Holland and Barrett & putting them in my mums shakes, Prayer helped to, my mums 5 years clear from the big c. Thank you god to listening to my prayers. I still pray now. X❤
It pleases me that you took such an intense effort and interest in your mum's illness. In part, you can contribute her healing to your hands-on efforts as well.
Listening to this podcast and comparing the core theme to so many other DOAC podcasts, I can confidently predict the future. 10 years from now, there will be more anxiety, depression and stress as our technological world will solicit our attention, needs and dreams.
If this is true, it means that the competitive advantage of the future is calmness, and more specifically, that success will be dictated by your ability to depart from and arrive at moments of deliberate calmness.
Steven, by listening to your podcast, you at least help me arrive and depart from such moments. I think you've cracked the code by not striving to be the smartest person in the room, but instead being the calmest person in the room.
In my own journey healing C-ptsd I think the answer to the potentially devastating future that is already riddled with debilitating anxiety and abysmal failure to handle stress is emotional intelligence and resilience. I'm learning that properly managing my emotions, changing my thought patterns/loops and finding peace in being misunderstood is how I find comfort in my authentic self, which creates a peaceful and self validating inner world. Anxiety for me is poorly managed emotions and thought processes that spiral into very loud inner and outer critics which cause me to become desperate for external validation of my fears. FEAR: False Emotions Appearing Real. Unfortunately the seeking of external validation makes things worse, hence the point of learning how to be completely comfortable with being misunderstood. As long as I understand and live for my authentic self, I feel inner peace. Anxiety, stress and depression for me come from misunderstood and unaddressed emotions and perspectives. I've learned that making my mess my message by gathering emotionally mature tools is the path to becoming whole. I choose to believe humanity has time to course correct and my contribution to a better future is healing my shit so I can teach my children how to do better than I did. We all did the best we could with the information we had. Now we have a choice to do better and I've discovered doing better can possibly be lumped under one umbrella- emotional intelligence.
I agree

‘I will never let you down’ is my Favourite Rita Ora song
Such a lovely down to earth and hardworking woman. Another great episode ❤
I am older and discovered Rita watching Shades three films, which I loved. Rita you really stand out and I look forward to what you do in the future.💗
Thank you for Bring this beautiful woman on your show. Good luck with all you do. Blessings from above.
A great conversation she was allowed to feel safe enough to really speak.And be vulnerable Great job
Always inspiring. Thank you very much 😊 Greetings from England. Have a great day everyone 🌻
I have always liked Rita but never knew much about her, she seems so lovely & genuine. ❤
I have yet to watch an episode that I have not completely loved. Many times, I have watched knowing nothing about your guest, but I've come to realize that even then, I learn so much, whatever the topic. Most times, I learn that I WANT to know more about the guest or topic, and your ability to motivate the DESIRE to learn is a gift for which I am so grateful... Rita Ora is someone whose talent was enough - the first time I heard her sing - to create a desire for more. Thank you, Rita, for being so transparent, & for reminding us all that even extremely gifted stars are humans going through those very human things we all experience. You are wonderful, both of you.
I hope Rita has tge time to read tge comment. I loved this intereview. It made me truely want to hug her. She is an inspiration. I love how authentic she is. She seems like ahe just tried to do all ahe can, with everything she can. I'm very grateful she talks about using tools like councilling to cope with lifes challenges.
She has such an amazing personality, I’m definitely going to check out her music now
I’ve been following a for while, always look forward to this peice of positivity in my day! Ritas been my fave guest so far!
I’d love to see someone like Zack Knight or more people from a bame community interviewed. Much love ❤
I loved what she said about “giving” in performance. Most artists I’ve worked with create for the same reason. It’s so beautiful.
Wow.. great interview. Finally thank you Rita for opening up on your background. I admire your tenacity and will power. Your shortfalls have truly moulded you to greatness.You are soo talented ; a creative ,genuine , open minded and humble person. Your work ethic is impeccable. I love you.
Yes, our boy Taika loves you so thats all we need to know. Kiwi wishes Rita. Hold on tight 💜
I’ve been following her for a few years now, so this is so wonderful to come across this story I admire her. I think she’s gorgeous. I am so happy she’s found love and that she is happy. May God continue to bless her.
Omg i wish this interview longer. She seems like she has so much to say. So intelligent and smart.
No sabes cómo agradezco que hagas sentir tan cómodos a tus invitados que logren compartir con nosotros sentimientos y experiencias de vida tan profundas y personales, no sabes cómo escuchar esas experiencias, emociones me ayudan a superar mis propios demonios y mirarme de otra forma, perdonarme, ser más amable conmigo misma. Gracias, miles de gracias
What a great woman. Truly admiring her ❤
Wow what hit home for me in this interview is that timing is everything to bring us this happiness, even when we don’t know it at the time. I believe my successes in happiness especially family was the timing! Thanks to both of you. Love Rita’s heart. 💯🧡💃🏻✅👍🏼🙏🏼🦋
Oh wow. What a journey. An inspiring insightful strong story. I never knew much about Rita. But so glad I tuned in. Thank you. ❤
I already liked Rita Ora from what I've seen of her on the telly - the warmth, the humour, the candour; and the music. This is gold dust and a wonderful peek into her life. And story worth listening to. Thank you.
Thank you for this. A lot resonates with me strangely even though my parents are African
✅My dad lived in a one bed in Earls Court when he came over
✅My dad had to retrain to become a Dr and was very stressful to see
✅Half my family grew up in Ladbroke Grove!
Appreciate the content. Interesting how we are different as people but many face the same challenges. Always found Rita an amazing person and wish her future successes.
This was the most awesome interview ever! Thank you Rita for sharing with us your experience! (I subscribed).
What a truly beautiful soul. And in my opinion, your most perceptive questions yet Steven. Thank you both.
Been a fan of Rita since RIP! Grew up listening to her songs in college, that's a real star!
I love her and her strength ... at the end of the day we're all human beings that go through things, and that's ok. #staying-inspired ♥
Omg🥺❤ you and your guests help me so much. Thank you thank you and thank you
She's so beautiful. Thank you for bringing her to the show
Thank you for coming in Rita, I always looked up to her because of her work ethic and 'foreigner background'. She always looks genuine and caring.
Do you look up to the fact that she thought she was so special during Covid that she had a party? Hmmm
@@eileenmcchrystal8471 I don't follow her private life to the detail. Do you have details of who was there, did she require a test from people? Did you read this in newspapers? It's none of our business. She has to live with the consequences of her decisions.
@@eileenmcchrystal8471 People in UK parliament who put lockdown laws on everyone went to party themselves. Does make you wonder if the lockdown were necessary then if they themselves did otherwise.
@@eileenmcchrystal8471 Btw, there was no stopping covid, it only temporarily delayed it. After all it was made in a lab, made to mutate fast and spread. It's well known now it did not start in nature. Our anger should be at why those labs are not closed down still, not on the everyday person to stop something like this happening.
