YES
Yes! This was amazing! All of it.
Sharing it with loved ones, family and friends and looking forward to the journal. Thank you both!
I change my account. Great interview😊 ✨🙏🏼✨❤️☮️
Yes❤
Yes!!
I love the integrity of this men. I never met men that would be so honest,open and authentic , and honestly my prayer is for some day to find and have people as truthful and honest as they are in my life ❤
Me neither, but it’s comforting to know those kind of men exist 🥰
Agree same here 🥹 we just have to continue having hope and never giving up 🙏🏻 ❤️
“I won’t let the fear of losing you limit how I’m loving you.”
Beautiful!
A person who is emotionally available will not choose someone who is not emotionally available. That was good!!!
YES 🙌 “Don’t try to make something great, make something true, and it’ll be great.” Amen to that.
When i release the emotion, i no longer have an electrical charge (trigger) attached to the memory. It becomes only a fact.
Thank you 🌬️
I've read about pulling the emotions out so you clearly see different perspectives and make wise decisions.. But how do you keep them out to permanently heal???
Is it through being aware and constant practice?
Beautiful episode. I especially am inspired by, “the work doesn’t have to be good or perfect, it just has to be TRUE”. Most of the time, I appreciate things in more of a raw form- the authentic form. Of an expression or of an act. For some reason though, Not being in the presentation of what I had expected for myself was causing me to pause and wait. But now I’m thinking I can embrace the non polished version of myself because, it’s my true self and the same goes for what I create and share. It’s my truth and that is something to be proud of- even just sharing it. Doesn’t mean it has to be someone else’s truth but it IS MINE and it’s honest. Not perfect t or polished. And that can help maybe more people than in a polished version of myself. ❤
🥰
“Don’t take yourself for granted because you’re always there”
THANK YOU!!! What a gift; your whole conversation was profound and nourishing
Adam reflections on vulnerability and self-expression are truly profound! 🌟 It's a great reminder that embracing our emotions and being true to ourselves can lead to genuine peace and create impactful, authentic work.
Everytime Lewis asks, "where does that come from?", when you are "true" the inspiration & words come from your heart/soul which is his true self. Those who think from the mind can not fully feel & absorb his messages. That is the reason of much suffering/grief from the souls just truly being.
I hear a lot of positive self talk self help, but coming from him... I believe it.
Yes ❤ both sides resonate so well. Oh man, the gratitude gym! Yes, I just wish it wasn't so hard. Hoping for it to get easier.... 🙏🏼
Woke up today, and for the first time, I felt that shift, 'like oh, even though I was 'terrible' yesterday, I'm still alive and get to go again' Life really is a gift, cause I woke up! And I'm here. That's true. When we don't know what else really is true and can't validate anything with love, we can say I am here. I am enough! I am home!
Love is now! …. Brought me to tears…

I dont see the word fuck so creative.
Every teenager is using it today because of adults and media....and 50 years old Joe Rogan says word "shit" often...
Some lady who has million subscribbers made a two years ago
a video about her 20 birthday talking about becoming adult etc and some fashion ideas, it was an hour long video....
and at some point after 5 minutes she started to talk and talk, and said the word Fuck" 50 times
in 8 minutes, so I didnt remember what she said because the word fuck was used so often.
So she probably said the wqord fuck 4 times in one minute or even more. so the million subscribers can leartn it too.
I was like its your birtday dont use the vulgar language if you celebrate something.
It makes no sense, but a so her face was serious.. I thought if she has a ,million subscribers she shouldnt be so negative.
In other video anpother lady was doing the same. She celebrated 50 000 subscribers and she was talking for an hour and used the word fuck in every sentence.
But its true humiliy and creativity is great thing.
Do not believe there is not good in the world. Know that there are a small group who want you to believe the opposite. We are in process of exposing and removing them. Have heart and prepare to be amazed.
Okay, Seriously Lewis I am constantly in awe of EVERY SINGLE INTERVIEW, however, this one.... Oh my goodness, thank you, thank you, thank you for this fantasically incredible interview!!! ❤❤❤❤ Best so far, hands down!! So so so out of the park deep and truly meaningful!! Grateful for you and your guests!! Inspired and more enriched because of you and your guests!! Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to check out the interview! So glad you enjoyed it🧡
Absolutely! Creativity has the power to heal, uplift, and inspire. It allows us to express ourselves, process emotions, and find solace in the beauty of art. Whether it's painting, writing, or any other form of creativity, it can be a therapeutic outlet for healing and self-discovery. So go ahead and embrace your creativity! 🎨✨
And Lewis and his friends should be held accountable for years of ENSLAVEMENT. It's pathetic they exploit the things other people create,for fucking years
Really what other people think has nothing to do with us, it is more about them and how they see
I so love you both!!! Thank you for the beautiful conversation ❤. Gives me a lot to take in and be with!!
Something great -not regarding the specific insights-is how two men are just able to talk about vulnerability, feelings, love. They are modeling being brave about incredible self reflection and self awareness which will increase mental health for men who struggle to be free to feel their feelings and then this increases health and happiness for people who love them.
Of course they are modeling for all humans regardless of gender but this will help free men from a social expectation of not exploring or being aware of feelings.
I LOVE IN-Q ❤ so excited to see him on your channel!!! Haven’t seen him in the mainstream lately so this was a great episode 🎉 He’s an amazing poet.
So glad you enjoyed it! Appreciate you for watching.
Wow Mr.Howes. Adam that last poem is Amazing the infinite me universal me eternal me wow i love this hats off.
What he said in the beginning about what you would tell yourself now I completely relate to. I’m in that transition phase also. I love the way this man thinks and his true authenticity and vulnerability which is so rare these days. 🙏🏻 ❤️
Beautifully said, ‘School of Greatness,,school of self-worth’. Thank you both👏🏽👏🏽
🧡
Wow. .❤ wow. Just wow. Ty for having him on Lewis...he's a jewel. Sometimes you come across something you didn't even realize you were missing💯💫💟
🙌

Thank you for saying this in this moment. So many gems in this conversation.. many are worthy of timestamps, but this acknowledgment cannot be said enough.
The greatest of these 3 is LOVE
IN-Q!! Congrats on your success!!! We shared many stages of Spoken Word together back in the day. One of my favorite lines you've ever written:
"How arrogant do you have to be,
To assume we are the only form of life from here to infinity?"
Your very FIRST CD, still my favorite. I'd kill to have another copy!❤

Every time I am hearing this person I'm so happy for him

Waoww🎉🎉 emotionaly unavailability is what I complain the most coz only n only such ppl I attract to myself repeatedly past couple of yrs n cudnt figure it out why?

But -this is totally worth sending. Thank you thank you.XOXO
This episode expressing the true yearning of my heart
the poem I’m Proud of You made me cry
Dear Lewis, I'm a language-learning nomad who, in a male body, has traveled the world in a dress on and off over the last twenty years. From what I have experienced, seen, and felt, there are a lot of good things happening. I definitely feel, notice, and observe improvements. I believe the world has become a safer and more open place. That said, as we're so much more connected, we see a lot more about what is happening. There is still a lot of work to be done. We all set a step in the direction of healing, beauty, kindness, and many more things. Muchas gracias y hasta luego.
Very nice to hear Poems on your Show. Lewis you and your Guest are doing awesome show
🧡
His poetry is so powerful! I love listening to him reading his poems!
🙌
Wow, thanks for introducing me to this man. So many thought provoking statements and love the poetry!!
This guy is giving me goosebumps! ❤
This truly touched me like nothing ever did. 🎉
This question struck me. “How do love someone who has hurt you and continues to hurt you?” Why would you want to? Obviously, if they chose to hurt you and keeps doing it, they do not love you. You need to love yourself first. Them hurting you is disrespecting you and in turn you are disrespecting yourself. Choose wisely what you tolerate.
I can relate to this guest completely this video is so real. ❤
So so deeply moving for places in our hearts!
you have inspired me to get my own poetry out in the world.

I feel exactly the same way - I am worthless. Everyday I struggle to believe otherwise. People tell me that its not true yet I am not able to change my thoughts about myself.
As soon as I saw In-Q on this, I had to make sure I tuned in. Love poetry and the writing and heart of In-Q. Many blessings and gratitude for this episode, this moment, this balm that I so needed on this day, in this space, and in this way ❤

Embrace the pain feel all the emotions and understand that that is what helps .. when you relieve yourself of a buildup of emotions.. pain is there for a reason,, it’s not to hold onto, it’s a guide, it’s a lesson, it’s full of benefits bd beauty if you embrace it!

Criticism will come, but the book makes me happy, so it's okay, it has already served its purpose for my life's happiness, even if nobody else likes it.
