Drew is a talented actress, producer, and director, known for her roles in films such as "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", "Charlie's Angels", and "50 First Dates." She made her acting debut at the age of six in the film "Altered States" and rose to fame as a child star in the 1982 film "E.T." She has since established herself as a leading lady in Hollywood and has also produced and directed several films. In addition to her successful career in the entertainment industry, she is also an author and a businesswoman, with her own production company and a cosmetics line. Currently, she hosts the The Drew Barrymore Show, which debuted in 2020 and has been renewed for a fourth season this year.  Drew shares her thoughts on being more empathetic, which means putting ourselves in others' shoes and treating them with kindness and compassion, why learning self-forgiveness is crucial for personal growth and healing, liberating or freeing yourself from mental, physical, or emotional constraints and can be achieved through self-awareness, self-care, and self-love. Prioritizing ourselves means taking care of our physical and mental well-being, setting boundaries, and making time for our own needs and wants. It is important to remember that we cannot pour from an empty cup, and taking care of ourselves allows us to show up fully for others.    What We Discuss:00:00:00 Intro00:00:22 It was a new show and nobody wanted to talk00:03:55 Starting out as a child00:09:28 Being more kind and empathetic00:16:55 Forgiveness and the ultimate form of liberation00:23:50 Letting go of shame and guilt00:27:14 Don’t stay stuck, get on with it00:33:08 Having a sense of safety in your workplace 00:37:59 How do you receive genuine love?00:49:13 Invest in yourself00:53:46 Today, who do you want to be?00:57:43 Your gut is your body’s compassEpisode ResourcesDrew Barrymore | TwitterDrew Barrymore | InstagramDrew Barrymore | FacebookThe Drew Barrymore Show | YouTube | TikTokWant to be a Jay Shetty Certified Life Coach?
