Thierry Henry (EXCLUSIVE): I Was Depressed, Crying Every Day, Dealing With Childhood Trauma!

we, we, we forget to enjoy living, enjoy it, we just, we just do it. It's like breathing, you don't think about breathing, right, are you living now? yes I'm enjoying it I'm trying to enjoy it I'm trying to accept you know when people say something to me like I never used to take a compliment, well, as you can imagine, because what triggered me the most was what I didn't do well, so when someone I was like oh Cherry, well that's what I'm supposed to do, Terry, we have a closing tradition on this podcast. which is somewhat interesting because the last guest leaves a question for the next guest without knowing who he left it for and it is curious that this is the question they left you: what do you regret most about your

childhood

and how are you? ?

Working to resolve that regret, what do you regret? I told you that I don't regret anything, but what would I say to solve it in a way that I don't regret it, I regret it, it's true, it's not a cliché, I think that when you, you, these are your mistakes, I hope they make you better , but what I will tell my younger self is, actually, enjoy it, don't forget to enjoy it and be happy, the question before I ask you the question because I already asked you what things are you doing that contribute to keeping you stagnant or preventing you from progressing from the way you would like.

People-pleasing still, yes, because it's something I can't get rid of, but I need to do it to balance it out. come out with my own happiness so I can't help but please people, that's something I have in me and I think you know what it is, I personally think it's a good exchange but you can't go too far because you forget your own happiness , what do you want people to know, we know the tiar in the field, the legend, but how do you want to be remembered, especially considering that you know you have many chapters of life left to live?

I told you I just want you to be remembered because if you are remembered it is because you have done something uh you are going to be remembered but that is enough for me so it will depend on the people but for me what matters now is You are transcends people, what you transmit and how you can help people, for example, to be able to open up, as I am, matters more to me than because when you achieved it and people see you as someone they like to follow, tell them. It took you telling them your true self so they fully understand what's going on and that matters more than any title I want, that matters more than anything else, be honest, stop lying and I lied for a long time because you have to because society I wasn't ready to hear what you have to say, especially in my world, uh, but if you can have an impact on someone's life and I was in Miami the other day, I'll be honest with you, no, not really.

It doesn't bother me. It doesn't bother me too much when people say, "Oh my God, Cherry," like I love it. I love listening to it, but I'm not like later. Did you see what he said? You know I don't accept. He went too far, but there was a guy the other day. I'm in Miami, a cup came and it calls me cherry. Can? Can you sign on my arm? What are you going to do? I'm going to get your autograph tattooed and I was like and I looked at him, I said, come on man, you know more important things to do and he's like no, you changed my life, so I looked at him and I was like.

I'm sorry, they're gone, yeah man, you don't understand through the struggle, I was looking up to you and you changed my life, I didn't know what to say, I didn't know what to say, I really like it, I stopped and looked at the people. and I was then I realized what matters then I realized without knowing the the the the the mission of a man of the mission of my dad actually throughout all the struggles all the problems that I'm still

dealing

with that That's why that's exactly why because you, that man told me how his life changed, he saved him from playing soccer.

It's like I told you. It's what you transmit now. You transcend people. I don't know why he saw it because I know he had to go and fact I took his uh his address and his name I still have it at home I need to write something for him and send him something soon but that is something that yes, like until now and that is something that I will do Don't tell my children that I won W cups and things like that, I'll tell my son. Thank you very much for having this conversation with me. For many reasons.

I met you in Paris and I sat there amazed because I knew the player. but I didn't know the man and I sat on the edge of my chair because I caught a glimpse of the man and to me you know the things you did on the field you are a legend you know there is hardly anyone who I can, there are no comparisons on the field, but I What surprised me was your willingness to speak so vulnerable and powerful as a human being and as a man, and that's why I messaged you right after and said, please, I'd love to have a conversation with you because it left an impact on me. so deep thinking, oh my god, tiar on re feel those things Taron re has those struggles, makes it okay for me to have those struggles and it will make it okay for millions of people listening to this conversation to have those struggles too and on and on normalize it and for us all to realize that those struggles are not evidence of my inadequacy or evidence that I am broken, it is actually evidence that I am a human being.

Also, Tiar exactly helps me get through those struggles and that's one of the most powerful things and I think one of the most inspiring things you can do and it's another example of TI R transcending into another chapter of her life in another way, Thank you very much, and I say thank you, I extend this on behalf of

every

one listening and who would love to be able to tell you. Thank you very much, thank you, Stephen, do you need a podcast? To listen below, we discovered that people who liked this episode also love another recent episode we did, so I linked that episode in the description below.
