      I agree in some aspects, because I don't think it was a conscious thong. She did this to give him a appearance to stand out and to feel and look different then others however they way she went around it sound like a dictator but he loves his mother he appreciates her. Dictatirs are not loved it appreciated. You may of experience these things yourself however, the transferences that from your dynamics is negative and will min seems to remind you of that but no she's not a dictator

    Steven you're such a good interviewer. You hold the space well to allow the interviewee to talk and express themselves in a way we rarely get to see. I now notice how many bad interviewers there are out there, who cut into the interviewee mid sentence, rush them and do so much of the talking themselves a core of the time, making us as the listeners question who's actually being interviewed here. You, Steven get the balance right with this. You're very skilled.

    The part where he spoke of his mum sending him to school in a suit made my heart explode. The way he loves her is so emotional to watch. I think now that his mum had sadly gone, he now wants someone to love so desperately. I get it, I have ADHD and i know he needs 'a him, in his life, someone to love him, the way he loves others, and that's only possible from your mum or your kids. For us with ADHD a partner is just never going to be able to love us enough. I hope he finds his peacefulness xxx

    I've been songwriting for 10 years. I was self conscious of sharing anything creative growing up, even as an adult. After growing up poor and constantly moving, never keeping long time friends, I dropped out of high school to work full time at different restaurants. I felt so alone for years. I luckily had 2 close friends and a couple good relationships that taught me love and had a grandmother who told me I could be anything. Now I'm going to college at 27 to study business law and architecture, STILL making music. I'm actually releasing a full project soon finally! I just wanted to share how grateful I am for this interview and this channel. It's f***ing dope; learning all these different topics! I learned that embarrassment is always going to be better than shame and regret. I hope you never give up following your dreams

I was always worried that I could never show my son how to be a man and masculine. I notice the way he sits sometimes and when Will said, "I even sit feminine," I could relate convo to my son. He crosses his legs in a more feminine way. After listening to Will, I'm not worried about if I failed to show him how to masculine....instead just happy that I raised how to be a beautiful, loving, and caring soul.

    Will I am the f***ing legend. Didn’t expect this one.
    When I turned 10, there was DJ on my birthday party and I told him to play Scream and Shout throughout the whole party and that’s what happened. Legendary!
    Will, you changed my life and inspired me so much musically and lyrically, thank you so much!
    I hope that I will see you again one day and spend some more time!

    BEP had a concert in Bulgaria couple of weeks ago. I could undoubtedly say that Will and the others showed us what really intelligent entertainers and at the same time beautiful souls means. I’m fascinated by their vibe, the words they use, the cultural exchange they always talk about. This interview is just another evidence that great people achieve great things. You can literally see his soul shining. I will be so happy when i see him being a dad.

    I am so touched listen to William. It reminds me of my selflessness as a single mum taking on my late sister's children in addition to mine. It was hard. But was able to give from the little I had. Will you have a golden heart.

    Great interview! One of his strengths I believe is intellection. He thinks deeply and often. He has the ability to explain complicated subjects in simple terms. He has a depth of understanding and wisdom. He needs others to challenge his thinking. He needs time to process and a big thinker. I understand because I am that. Just told someone today that my future husband has to challenge my thinking or it won’t work. So hopefully he finds someone that will balance him out and embrace his higher thinking. ❤ I love Star Wars!! My the force be with you my friend!

    Absolutely loved this interview Stephen- you asked fantastic questions and were so accepting of Will’s thought process- i loved how you went along in trying to innerstand rather then try to force more conventional answers or ways of relating out of him ( which obvs wouldn’t have worked). You teo were a dream here - thank you so very much xxx very valuable xxx

    When i was young in Paris, doing many parties, ive crossed Will I Am at the entrance of a nightclub. My life didn’t stop there, creativity was my pursue. Ive found this interview so inspiring. I wanted to meet inspiring people around the world, artists! Ive had the chance. I probably regret a bit the 10 years past I didn’t invest in my family. But i had to come till here on my own. And something that realy ressonated was the fact his mom said to him to never answer “nothing” when asked what he thinks. She just allowed expression! What a sagesse. Long life Will. You. Will. Respect 💫

      Same. My mom would get me and my brother to use the $1 bills, and buy 15 cent candies. We did that montly. My mom used it to buy gas, so she could go to work. She was extremely hard working, but a single mom to 2 kids and a disturbed, alcoholic, chronically unemployed husband (my stepfather).

    He is lucky to have a mother like that, if only we all had a mother like Wills.

    Truly unbelievable in the best way possible. I am essentially a mirror of Will. I feel like I could have a life time of conversation with him. He would start to explain something and I knew where he was going next. That alignment in vibratory experiential frequency brought me solace. Nice to know there are other folks like you in the world to remind you that you are not an Alien.
