So profound and poetic. Beautiful. Thank you both.

[@RaquelPasia-wh3ww]

He is a good speaker, he explains clearly. I've watched some of Dr. Siegel's interviews and most of the topics we're interesting.

[@user-qg2je9ld2c]

We all would experience a magical experience of life ,if Everyone heard and lived by this wisdom.
Daniel is a brilliant soul and articulate speaker , Andre’ asks perfect questions and is an attentive listener. We are so fortunate they have come together.🙏

[@Federicasjourney]

I just want to underline how humble and ready to learn André is. So inspiring. Thank you! ANd thank you doctor Siegel!

[@robertasalazar9274]

I loved Daniel's statement: "the fundamental thread of reality is based on love." For me the best definition of love is complete presence. So this makes sense and underscores again the importance of bottom up perception. When you are in complete presence there is no prejudgement or biases.
I also loved the notion that our identity is more a verb in process of all we are part of.

[@Sterling4025]

I read Dr. Dan Siegel’s Mindsight 4 years ago, and have been watching his mindfulness instruction on his website for 7 years. I love that you had him on here.

[@demetargun]

What a great interview 👏🏻
Thank you Andre for the platform and asking such a great questions. Dr. Siegel said that “let’s stop a moment and feel the beauty of what you’ve said”. I felt the same and he said that afterwards.
Last 2 weeks I’ve been watching Peter Crone’s interviews on UA-cam and found out that even though he has such a great knowledge, not every interviewer can get that extract out. Your articulation is great. In some cases even though I didn’t know the subject, the general view point that you give before question helps understand the answer. Thank you for your willingness and effort 🙏🏻🥰

[@CoachNazLoveDoctor]

I love these interviews! Thank you so much!

[@AnaïsBrault]

Thank you Andre for this. Interesting men. I had the horse accident also, plus the lsd experience, I had visited a state of mind that you can have through years of practice. Now trying to get it back on a daily basis through meditations 🧘🏼‍♀️

For those interested, the personality book he is talking about is actually the output of research theorizing how the 9 types of Enneagram types emerge.
