Summary

Quddus (now known as Q) is a TV host and breakthrough coach, originally from Canada. His big break came in 2001 as a host on the hit show TRL on MTV. It led Q to a nomination for “Favorite TV Personality” at the Teen Choice Awards and the cover of TV Guide.  After leaving MTV in 2006, Q hosted shows like Access Hollywood (NBC), Duets (ABC) and The Insider (CBS) which inspired Chris Rock to say, “If Oprah and Ryan Seacrest had a love child, the kid would end up being like Quddus.” In 2017, his passion for impact motivated Q to create the groundbreaking media training, Camera Ready, and best-selling author Neil Strauss to describe it as “practice and insight that brings out your best self.“  2020 marks the launch of a new venture, The Connected, and what Q describes as “the mission to deepen our offline connection with each other.”  Connect with Quddus:Instagram @quddus Are you looking to find your purpose, navigate transition or fix your relationships, all with a powerful group of men from around the world?

0:15.2

Answers for Women. Joining me today is Caduce, and Caduce is a colleague of mine, friend of mine, and he is a former

0:24.5

TV host speaker, coach originally from Canada. And he originally hosted the hit show TRL, which

0:32.1

was on MTV, which led to a nomination for favorite TV personality at the Teen Choice Awards.

0:38.7

Caduce extensive hosting experience includes shows like duets on ABC and The Insider on CBS.

He is also the former co-founder of Camer Ready, in which he shares his passions for bringing

0:52.8

out the best in people long after the camera

0:55.6

lights have dimmed. So Caduce is joining me today not necessarily to talk so much about

1:01.3

being on TV or being in front of a camera, but actually sort of sits in front of the camera

going through a breakup and diving into his experience firsthand of going through that place and

through that space in his life, but also being able to talk about the mental health challenges

that coincided with that. Kadoos shares some of his

1:28.8

personal story in dealing with the with the breakup, with his recent divorce with his partner,

1:34.1

and talks about not only some of the challenges that let him down into some depression,

1:39.1

into a lot of anxiety and panic attacks, but also how he started to turn things around and

dark place. So this episode is a lot about the human experience of the impact of breakups,

1:52.4

the impact of divorce, which all of us have been through at some point in our life. Most,

1:56.8

almost all of us, I would assume, have gone through some form of really hard breakup.

2:02.1
