Trevor opens the conversation by sharing what it was like growing up, how he sees the rest of the world, and why it felt like it was okay growing up the way he did. We then exchange thoughts and perspectives on topics such as finding the true meaning of having a ‘home’, the type of friends we often surround ourselves with and why, finding independence in a completely new and foreign place, and being mindful of yourself and in one with your inner thoughts.

I like to say “I’m not grateful for my suffering but I found meaning in it. And that meaning is what I’m grateful for “

I have 4 sons. I'll consider myself a successful mother if they turn out with Trevor Noah's character traits. I want them to have his empathy, compassion, understanding, wisdom, and ability to see humor in life.

This is, by far, one of the BEST "brain-picking", thought-provoking & eye-opening interviews I've ever watched! Trevor's way of thinking is utterly mind-blowing & completely OUT OF THIS WORLD!👏🏾❤️

21:12 -- "My definition of home has always been where I feel I am living my purpose." 🤔

That comfort in chaos phenomenon Trevor talks about hit deeply for me...

Two lessons I’ve learnt from this episode: 1) I need to reevaluate my safety net and determine whether certain parts of myself that I’m holding onto are actually holding me back. 2) In order to learn and understand others, it is necessary to let go of self. One word for this episode - wow.
-
There's just something about listening to Trevor. I could do it all day. And the way they bounce energies and ideas off of each other is so refreshing. I love this!
-
I still remember when Trevor was a small time presenter on some South African kids program. His climb has been something out of the heavens.

When your two mentors seat at the same table, Its Amazing.
