KeKe is going to be alright. Doing the work, learning herself, her boundaries.

Powerful testimony by mama Sharon. I was tearing up a lil. You gotta want to change. Powerful message.

"I am not going to let you speak to me that way." "Talk to me the way I talk to you." "I am not here to be disrespected." Amen. 6:55. Gem #2 25:24 Gem #3 46:36

“I am not gonna let you speak to me that way. Talk to me the way I talk to you. I am not here to be disrespected.” Amen

Love Keke! Please allow your guests to speak all the way through w/o cutting them off. We love to hear what they have to say, thorough through.

Wow, this was my parents. My mom was rough around the edges, and my dad was that calm. My dad was raised the same, he cooked cleaned, and sewed. My parents were married 46 years when my dad passed🙏🏾

Not sure if it was editing but keke let momma answer your question without cutting her off. Love u sis!

Firstly. I looove how Keke articulated her questions and how she carried the conversations to some great answers! I can see the growth and dedication to her growth and thirst to ,not only learn but to ask questions that herself and others can genuinely use in our lives. I love it so much! Dr. Drew was amazing with hitting all her the questions as well! Thank you guys so much for this!!!

Momma Sharon looks so tired. I know it's a lot going on behind the scenes.. I'm not sure when this was recorded ...But I do hope the whole family can find peace.

Keke please stop cutting your mom off.She’s so patient with you 😩

Dr. Drew talking about boundaries has me shook!! Of course, the real work is internal for you and isn’t about anyone else.

Keke. Please let mama speak and finish answering your questions.

You know KeKe even though you feel like you’ve jump into love with unrealistic expectations, appreciate the fact that you’re from so much love to know when you’re not being loved the way you want to be loved, you can realize. So many grew up in chaos and abuse so when it’s reflected in their own relationships, they don’t even realize that they deserve better bc that’s how they’ve always been treated. I loved this one so much. Dr Drew was great, very refreshing honestly. I need him as my therapist 😅

Love the conversation with your mom. She explained that she chose the nice guy who was opposite of her because she wanted to be more like him. That was beautiful 💜

Keke X Dr. Drew - the crossover we didn't know we needed. Great episode, looking forward to more !!!

Babyyyyy, Dr. Drew is aging HANDSOMELY❤❤❤❤❤

9:35 i am 24 years old and mama Sharon is painting an exact picture of my life and meeting my boyfriend and his family. I feel so validated by the acknowledgment of emotional abuse and I’m currently in the breaking the cycle process!! I love y’all thank you for this episode

SUCH a genuine episode this is. It's amazing to see your mom speak and her AHA moment with your dad!! That is a special share to many families that don't get to see or experience witnessing that. And Dr. Drew... is like the uncle you always wanted 😂😂❤️ down to earth but so well versed in his line of work. Well done Lauren aka KEKE!!! Lol 💗💗

I absolutely LOVEDDDDDDDD this!! 🙌🏾 We need more talk about mental health in the black community in general but especially the YOUNG black community!

Keke trying to gain tools. Whatever your reaction is to someone else is usually what you've felt about yourself at one point or another... protect your inner child that first got hurt first. Seems to be a very common theme with a lot of doctors. Give folks and others more grace. Good conversation.

Yes please do a series with Dr. Drew I am here for it!! Also your mom sharing her testimony was so powerful ❤️

My mother & father were pretty stable. They never yelled at each other. I thought everyone else was like that. Their lives were hard but they had beautiful communication. Married 75 yrs. Some weeks they weren’t close (but again, no fights in front of us five kids). I do not know how they did it. I had high expectations for my choice os men…but higher expectations of who I had to become.

It's so important getting to know who you're dating. Communication is so very important. Talk about the things that's important to you. And setting boundaries. Get to know each other's family. Live together after one year of dating. For at least a year before marriage.

I love how Keke speaks to issues and intense scenarios (many of which seem to be personal) in such an openhearted, curious, but still witty way.

This hit alot of questions that I’ve been wondering even with my own mental health team. I now have an agenda for key points I want to hit for my treatment plan

I absolutely love this episode! Thank you bringing awareness on mental health.

I’m here for Dr. Drew. Have so much respect for him.

Only 10 minutes in and this video already is giving soo many feelings! Your mom’s honest vulnerability is absolutely Beautiful. Thank you🙏

Thank you for this Keke. Like your mom I grew up with a family that curses each other out. Being a millennial I noticed I cannot take being cursed out and still believe ppl love me. I've been no contact with my family for a while because I deserve to be spoken to with respect.

Her mother reminds me of my Mother.And her father literally sounds like my step-dad who raised me since I was three..and they remained married until he passed. This is so interesting to watch.

Keke, thank you for bringing these pros on and asking amazing questions - I’ve never thought of how having a typically “healthy” childhood can have its disadvantages. I’ve experienced the opposite and am now in a transitional stage where this happiness, peace, stability, and healthy love is my every day and it’s unbelievable.

My heart aches knowing that the interest of keke comes from the hurt she’s been going through. However, the blessing and privilege she has to have help. And the joy for us to access this free therapy because in a way, we can all relate to or benefit from this video! Ouf!! This is really powerful.

The opener of this podcast hit hard…having the same realization at 31 with a similar paternal background and strong male figures. My parents celebrated 40 years of marriage in June and I just had this conversation with my parents. These honest conversations need to be had with younger generations!

This was very good. Thanks KeKe for sharing a bit of your journey. Instead of acting as though a camera is watching I often pause and think of a little me watching what I’m doing and saying. I have grown immensely.

Let mama speak and finish expressing a complete thought Keke ❤ I adore you, love hearing you but would be great to hear from your mum, uninterrupted.

This was awesome. I shared it with everyone. So many times I can’t put the words to what I feel. This is it. Been to therapy … talked about boundaries but was NOT explained like this!👏🏾🙏🏾

Keke Every time we get a notification that you have uploaded another video we get excited and can’t wait to listen to you and Sharon’s conversations it’s my favorite part of all of your videos. Sharon seems so down to earth I feel like I know her and the fact that me and you are both VIRGOS I feel like I know you as well. I love how you ladies can be so transparent and open and honest, that speaks volumes. Keep doing your thang keke!! As you once said “Another Virgo slays the day”

Thank you for having this conversation, Keke and Dr. Drew!!! Y'all had me tearing up in the condiments aisle at the grocery store😢 I'm dealing with this exact issue, and Dr. Drew explained the person to a T. Not only that, it was so enlightening to hear the reasons why a person like me kicks into savior mode. Please, PLEEEEASE hurry back for convo #2!! (I fondly remember staying up late to catch Love Line on the local alternative radio station as a teen❤)

My cousin has something similar. She's over 40 years old and never had a boyfriend. It's because her dad treated her so well. It can go the other way.

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS AMAZING CONVERSATION I took so many notes and I cannot wait to do my homework. You know its yo girl, Keke Palmer!

I really love how Dr Drew explains this

I never not nan once ever tire of this woman.

I understand where keke mom was coming from we do the same thing in our family, we speak our mind say what we want and do not care about each other feelings, my husband teach me a different way and his family was so nice and i love how him and his brothers and sisters care about each other and love on each other, i said i wanted that for myself and our family and my husband show me a different way, we were together for 24 year before he passed and i still carry what he teach me and try to teach my family as well,

A great person often has an amazing support system. Well done, sweetie!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤

Love that KeKe!! Thank you so much for this episode. Greatly appreciative of your questions and for choosing Dr. Drew. Thank you Dr. Drew!! You broke it all down in such an honest and digestible manner. Blessings

Oh my goodness this has to be the most beautiful episode thus far.

Definitely relate to Ms. Sharon's family dynamic. Trying to stay out the "mix," but the toxicity breeds codependency.

The type of thought provoking convos I search for on podcasts and can never find! 👏

This episode is everything ❤ wishing you peace and healing Keke and everyone out there who is working on it too

Not Keke with “When you do women wrong everything gets taken from you” lol 😂

I love Keke down!!! and Dr, Drew so damn fine and knowledgable. Like i respect him so much

Sister mother ms keke mam. This was super intelligent, insightful, vulnerable, proactive and restorative. Tank you for modeling this moment and teaching us an example of ways that we may observe adaptive behavior, a way to approach “the work” we need to do for healing and growth. Your questions are great, dr drew was awesome! Thank you

This was very very good. I haven’t been genuinely moved by a podcast in a long time. Great information!

Fantastic conversation with Dr Drew!! 🎉🎉 More like this, so great!

I’m only 20 minutes in and my mind is 🤯 you have asked such amazing questions and it’s already one of the best therapy session podcasts I’ve ever heard please keep doing these!!

This was sooo fire! I love you Keke your realness is unmatched and Dr Dru is the Goat period! I loved this episode sooo eye opening in more ways than one

I wish Keke wouldn’t cut her mom off so much. She’s full of wisdom and I’m sure it wasn’t malicious but interrupting while someone is sharing their experiences or feelings can come off insensitive. Maybe she’s heard the stories before but we haven’t. I think also with what Keke has and is going through it would’ve been nice for her to reflect how growing up in a positive household translated when she started dating and what part subjected her to what she’s experiencing currently. I don’t suggest in real time just for her sanity but maybe circle back on it.

This was needed. I needed to hear this.thank you all

This discussion was everything 👌🏽 I love this for her!

Omg Sharon you got me tearing up boo. Thank you for sharing, real ish. ❤❤❤❤

I absolutely LOVED this episode KeKe!! Yes yes! Keep Going! And I literally cried with Mrs. Sharon! Whew that part tore me up! Keep Going KeKe 💜✨!

This was so powerful!! Thanks Mama Sharon for sharing this with us!! Love this conversation

I so loved this episode and I totally get it thank u for this one for real I needed this

What a powerful interview, thank you KeKe!

Loved everything about this episode!! Definitely thought provoking and left me with many 💎

Thank you for this discussion Keke and Dr. Drew❤

Keke Palmer is such a role model!! I desperately want to find a licensed therapist that can give me the tools to break personal cycles but don’t know where to look. Does anyone else struggle with wanting to see a therapist, but feel frozen with so many options and decision fatigue?

I felt Ke-Ke mom and I’m trying to change my mouth is reckless I cannot lay a hand on you and make you feel some type of way only with words. I have been told numerous times by guys I dated that I have a reckless mouth, but they don’t know what I’ve been through, but that still doesn’t give me a reason to speak to them that way.

I love these conversations!!!!

Loved this conversation! Life changing information.

Hey Virgo sista you did that! Keep on healing, one day at a time. Praying for you in that industry. Keep doing the work.

👏👏🙌 A Must Watch! Incredibly Insightful.

This was such a great episode! Keke asking them great questions!

Lake and Dt Drew series is NEEDED I was so invested in this and I hope you guys do more ❤

It was heavy to hear Keke's burdens come through her questions to Dr. Drew, even if she didn't want to directly address them head on. Going back to one thing she said about her traumas ... I do think though, that even if she felt that as a child she could change the fate of her family, that was not her responsibility-it was just what happened as a result of her circumstances. Hard to make sense of that as a kid though, I can see that. Having observed Keke's career and seen snippets of her family (mom, dad, siblings), I do feel that even if Keke were to step away from it all and just be a normal everyday person, her family would love her just as much. She doesn't have to be the provider to be valued or to find value in life. Keke, there's nothing more you need to do to be enough. You are enough. Glad to see you on this long journey of self-discovery and growth. Praying for you and Leo as you approach this next stage of life with discernment, wisdom, and truth❣

So so good! This combo right here

Sharon got me over here in tears.

This was sooo enlightening, thank you keke

I really and truly enjoyed listening to you guys.❤

I needed to hear this. Thanks❤

Excellent episode! I really enjoyed this conversation.

necessary and needed 🤲🏽🤍🤲🏽love this. Bless♾️💕🙏🏽🥰

Wow. Amazing episode. This is how you do the work and keep the content coming 🫰👏🎬

I'm in EMDR therapy now. It is DEEP. It's challenging. It is redeeming. It's a healing balm. It's a doorway to freedom.

Ms. Sharon have alot of wisdom to share if given the opportunity to speak.

Love Dr. Drew!

This was an AAAAMAZING podcast. Great content👏👏👏

This was a well needed conversation 🙌🏾

I really enjoyed this episode. Really enjoyed.

Great episode. Very insightful

I’m sorry but I’m cringing so bad at you cutting your mom off.You respond before she finishes her thought.💕

I loved this thank you KeKe I need you as a Friend 🙏🏾

Praying for your healing, peace, and safety

Can't wait to watch this....

This was a great conversation!

Loved this episode ❤

Omgggg this was great 😊

I’m always trying to gain tools to deal with life. When I feel not seen, nor heard it’s very painful and debilitating. I try to combat that by putting myself out there in the real world. I’m not afraid to be myself.

Enjoyed this episode! I wanted a little more about boundaries & relationships. Omg, my husband's a virgo & I am a capricorn (how'd I know Dr. Drew was going to say his wife's a capricorn). Also its one day at a time. Whew chile! 🙏🏿😂

Great topic! My sister and I have older children and have talked about the same thing.
