I love this! Andrew may never know this, but he helped me to get through understanding my 24 year old son's TBI while he was in a coma, he helped me to get him the proper therapy after he left the hospital, and his podcast now helps my son (now 26) continue to improve his recovery. He ABSOLUTELY enjoys learning about his brain health, his emotional health, and physical health from these videos! My son is a walking miracle partly because of this man. ❤

Andrew's personal life is so interesting, but none of it ever got out of his podcasts (aside from Costello) - a show of how professional and dedicated he is to keeping his material pure for science. But man, what a great life story and well developed person psychologically. He really earned my utmost respect as a human being.

Andy! This was quite the podcast. It was brave my friend and added great value to your podcasts. I'm 70, retired after 38 years at SLAC up the hill. I wanted to say how much you've served my bumpy transition into the 'golden years'. I hit the skids getting here. You came into my KZfaq world like a bulldog. One podcast after the other you've offered me a game plan, and by golly it's working. I have danced with depression over the years. I changed my lifestyle, my diet, and the results are undeniable. But mostly I wanted to honor the story behind the skills. You didn't come into this as some byproduct of a career. The word service comes to mind. I love your precision, mixed with some kindness for the human condition. I don't get to the Farm much as I'm 5 hours up the coast now. But should we cross paths somehow I'm going to say hello, and thanks. I remember that skate shop in PA. I was there when they rolled up the sidewalks at 6pm. Keep rolling bro, You're a shiny light on the tree. best regards, John

It's insane that I had almost an exact replica experience with being committed/institutionalized by my parents (but as an adult). Andrews description of his cognitive dissonance related to why/how he ended up there and the sense of betrayal/abandonment that comes with it is profound. Also, the raw emotion that comes when a therapist finally becomes the one who finally hears and sees you in a way that can actually help you heal... In a weird way, it's comforting to hear someone relate to this super traumatic experience....thank you for sharing these intimate details!

I don't usually comment on stuff, but thank you so much for sharing your story, and for taking the time to make all your wonderful podcasts. I always got the impression watching your podcasts that you are a man who has overcome or is continuing to overcome an internal struggle to be the person you project outwards in order to share your knowledge. Hearing your story, I have even greater respect for you as an amazing, resilient, and deeply thoughtful human being. I went quite far off the rails and screwed up my own life as a conflicted teenager, and had to claw my way back, and I think it makes you more caring, insightful and empathetic towards others and more driven to succeed, or not let yourself fall again. I haven't had to deal with the things you have, but I feel I understand a little of what you must have battled to get where you are, and I'm really sorry that you had to go through it, but I hope you've been able to make peace with your past.

We see parts of ourselves through the reflection of others that we may not otherwise have a line of sight. Second, I am curious if my vernacular misalignment with your impression is, generational, regional, or life experiences. I had no inkling it was insulting. Nor have I particularly considered or cared about my status in society. I value authenticity and integrity more than status. To me, “girl“ was meant to be lighthearted while simultaneously conveying through writing, how impressed I am with Dr. Huberman’s story, how I connected with it, and to imply there was a modicum of healing that it gave me. Again, thank you for taking the time to let me know how I appear. You are an interesting mirror for further consideration of how I see myself.

Andrew has alluded to his, from time to time, in his other videos, but this interview really filled in some gaps. You both have had a tremendous influence on my current profession. I’m a Stanford graduate and personal trainer and endeavor to bring a truly science-based approach to my training. I’ve been regularly training myself since I was in the army in the early 1970s, and now that I’m 70, I want to bring evidence-based material to the attention of my client base, which is in the range of 50-90 year olds. Your honesty and empathy shine through in this interview, and I look forward to seeing the tables turned one day with Andrew asking the questions and Peter answering.

Thank you for your heartfelt honesty, really sharing these very personal and poignant experiences in your life Andrew. As a Mom, I just wanted to reach through the screen, hug him, hold him and comfort him. I was particularly intrigued with him explaining how life was growing up with his parents. Jonice Webb PhD has a great book called Running On Empty additionally Mother Hunger by Kelly McDaniel -both wrote on what we didn’t get as children - namely Nurturance, Guidance and Protection. Yes, I capitalized those words due their absolute importance in early childhood development. These issues of childhood neglect, run deep and even with the most amazing counselling/counsellor loving oneself, having healthy self-worth and self-esteem are some of the greatest human challenges. We just gotta keep putting one foot in front of the other, as we do what we can to heal. Healing doesn’t have an end point, a destination per se, it’s a lifelong endeavour. Fabulous podcast!

You’re an inspiration and I hope to develop some of the strong connections it seems you have with school. I’m 45 and in school. I’m post divorce with my own house and a dog so I loved that part of your story. Although I started later in life to discover myself and deal with early life trauma, I’m very proud of my successes. Unfortunately, the feeling of being alone never quit goes away. I wish you nothing but more beautiful journeys as a small thank you to what you’ve given through your podcast and you’re openness. Although I am in the beginning stages of school somewhat, I hope to be a therapist like your sister. Through my own therapy, I learned that helping people is my calling and I’ve always known that. Just never believed in myself enough to do anything about it. I’m grateful to Joe Rogan for introducing me to you which in turn introduced me to this podcast. Thank you to you both!! Thank you to everyone who cares enough to tell their story in hopes of helping others!!

What a valuable interview!! I've been listening to the Huberman podcast for quite some time now, and have a new appreciation for Andrew given the backstory. Mad props to you both. 😊

Have been following Andrew since the beginning and this is definitely the most touching and inspiring episode . I just feel like an old friend of him and grew up together. I am at the same age with Andrew and had a tough teen age like him . Feel so related. Deeply appreciate his honesty and openness. Andrew is the BEST ❤!

This is an incredible interview. Thank you both. Seeing Andrew (and Peter) turn their incredible analytical, precise, organized, benevolent minds onto the chaos of their own personal experience may be as helpful as their professional/educational discussions. Andrew drips with humility and consciousness. Peter is gracious and loving with his friend, but all the while exacting and uncompromising thorough and direct in his questions and observations, as Peter always is. Rigor and charity. Combined. What a tender yet powerful brotherhood that has formed between them and several other hosts. Thank you for sharing it. We all benefit from your knowledge it even more so through your vulnerability and sincere pursuit of helping others. If science had saints, you both should be nominees.

By far & to date, this is the best interview of someone's backstory that I've ever heard/seen. For someone that has lived through quite a lot and succeed, and yet staying humble, vulnerable, curious still, and in general learning to thrive every day... there's something more than the typical success story here; I'm not sure I can accurately put it into words... I feel there's rawness/real/genuine vulnerability here... So much respect on so many levels, your strength in vulnerability is mind-blowing, so much we hide and mask... As I watched/heard you, your story pierced through my heart, the hardened parts of my heart, pierced right through... (parts of me currently are in a gral apathetic state; otherwise I'd been able to shed tears, but the impact of your life story is real); all I can say is THANK YOU and MAY GOD BLESS YOU every day forever so you can continue on this path of being and sharing your awesomeness every day!!! "Life is a constant cycle of learning, unlearning and relearning until becoming unbiased (=wise)". ~Unknown "I will love the light for it shows me the stars, yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars " ~Og Mandino Specifically I loved loved hearing how much more fulfilling it is to focus on passion/purpose/why than over financial success... YOU GET IT!!! Mind officially blown and I have still a few minutes left... Again Thank you, bless you

Thank you both so much for this. Perhaps my having been (and still am) a psychotherapist for the past 30+ years, I am passionately interested in "backstories." After hearing yours, Andrew, my respect for you has increased exponentially and if you were in my presence, my impulse would be to give you a hug. Actually, warm hugs for both of you.

Thank you for providing a great podcast! It’s always encouraging to hear the backstory of a great scientist/youtuber. This is one case of someone who didn’t exhibit a victim mentality, complaining about upbringing and society. Instead, he took responsibility in turning his life around. I thoroughly enjoyed the interview!
