Thanks for listening to the Goop Podcast.

When you are pioneering anything or introducing new ideas to the culture, you get criticized.

You do?

Yeah, did you hear about that?

I didn't find the one.

I found someone I respected and we made it the one.

In a sort of longing kind of view of love, people understand each other as if by magic.

Nothing in itself is addictive on the one hand and everything could be addictive if there's an emptiness in that person that needs to be filled.

I now know that nobody changes until they change their energy.

And when you change your energy, you change your life.

I'm Gwyneth Peltrow.

This is the Goop Podcast.

Bringing together thought leaders, culture changers, creatives, founders and CEOs, scientists, doctors, healers and seekers.

Here to start conversations, because simply asking questions and listening has the power to change the way we see the world.

Here we go.

Chelsea Hanlar needs no introduction, but here's one anyway.

She's a comedian, activist and a New York Times best-selling author.

She's also one of my dear friends.

Today, Chelsea and I talk about intimacy and vulnerability, having the courage to speak out and learning to be okay.

With being uncomfortable.

We talk about throwing away old behaviors that don't serve us, why life is more interesting when we are able to shift our perspectives, and how we can have deeper, better conversations.

We also talk about Chelsea's latest book, Life Will Be the Death of Me, her work and racial justice, her return to stand-up comedy, and what it's like building a cannabis brand.
