Marianne Williamson | You Made It Weird

You made it weird. You made it weird. You made it weird. Oh yeah. You made it
weird. You made it weird. Yes, you did. You made it weird. Oh yeah. You made it
weird. With Pete Holmes. Yes, you did. You made it weird. Oh yeah.
What's happening, weirdos? This episode of You Made It Weird is with the
incredible Marianne Williamson. Here's a little taste.
I found 90% of the time in my life, the best advice I can give myself is get
over yourself. This is so inconsequential to the larger things that are
happening in this world. Look at what's happening in Iran. Look at what's
happening in Afghanistan. Look at what's happening. Get over yourself. And it
does help you have a greater willingness to be a person who can handle, who can
sweat, don't sweat the small stuff.
So excited that Marianne is here. You guys are going to love this chat. I sure
did. Obviously, Marianne is a American author, bestselling author, number one
bestselling author, a spiritual leader, and a former and possibly future
presidential nominee. So it was a thrill to get to sit down with her. I'm so
excited for you guys to hear this episode.
Just a couple of things to plug up top. One of which is I am currently on tour.
If you would like to see me, actually, let me get the dates. Let me get those
sweet, sweet dates.
Because we just added a whole bunch of cities. I'm doing my new hour of stand-up.
I'll be in Atlanta, Charlotte, North Carolina, Washington, D.C., Vancouver,
Grand Rapids, San Diego, New Orleans, Dallas, Houston, Milwaukee, Madison,
Wisconsin, Royal Oak, Michigan, Minneapolis, New York, New York, and finally,
Connecticut.
It's a great tour. I'm really excited about this hour. It's extra good because
the quarantine shut things down. I've been working on this one longer, and I'm
going to say I think it's my best one yet.
Very excited, and thank you to all the weirdos that have come out so far. So go
to PeteHolmes.com if you'd like to see me out on the road.
This episode is brought to us by our friends at Living Libations. Living Libations
is a high-end, natural hair, skin, teeth, eyes, whatever you have.
They have a beauty product, a skincare product, a self-care product that is
made with ingredients that you will recognize.
For years, I've been careful about what I put in my body, but I wasn't being
very careful about what I put on my body when it comes to, like, moisturizers,
shaving creams, aftershave, gum care, stuff like this.
I just was buying what they had at the pharmacy, or worse, some weird kiosk at
the mall, and I thought it was high-end.
I thought it was nice. I thought it was good quality. What, because it had a
French name, or maybe because it was expensive?
But of course, these products are filled with chemicals and toxicity levels
that were just not intended for human consumption.
And make no mistake, if you're putting something in your hair or on your skin,
it's getting absorbed into your bloodstream.
It's getting into your body. So this stuff was not intended for human
consumption. It's not made for humans. It's weird.
So if you want to replace these items in your medicine cabinet, in your shower,
with a beautiful, not only a beautiful, powerful, effective product,
with ingredients that you can recognize and a natural quality that you will see
and feel the difference,
but actually super, super powerful products, meaning not some, like, watered-down,
hippie version of a product,
but a badass, effective version that's made with stuff that you can read those
ingredients and feel good about,
Living Libations is here to save your day, and your skin, and your hair, and
your teeth, and your nails, whatever it is.
This is a great way to support the show because they have lots of small things.
So you can show your support of the show by getting yourself a tongue scraper
at Living Libations,
or you can do a complete, like Val and I did, complete overhaul of all of your
products and become just a Living Libations house.
That's what we've done.
A good example of how effective these are, their exfoliant scrub, exfoliating
scrub,
not only is it made with stuff that you will know, you'll know everything on
that ingredient list,
it's way more, it's got more grit and more exfoliating power than any exfoliants
I've ever used in my life.
And pro tip, baked right into this ad, it's super important to exfoliate before
you shave.
I don't know if you guys are having a hard time or getting razor burn,
a huge pro tip is exfoliate before you shave, and if you use their Ginger Exfoliating
Scrub,
you're going to get more dead skin cells off and a cleaner, clear shave.
I'm sure that would be true for if you're shaving your legs as well.
I just shave my face, so I'll tell you that.
It works for my face.
Plants, oils, extracts that you recognize as real and natural, and it works.
Like the Zen Shave is the balm that they make that I use to shave.
It's so clean and natural and moisturizing, you can actually use a dab of it as
your aftershave.
Try doing that with some weird anonymous neon green blue goo you shoot out of a
pressurized can.
And at night, both Val and I use their best skin ever moisturizer.
Smells great, feels great, keeps your skin looking great and healthy and
vibrant and alive.
We use that before bed.
But it's wonderful if you can support the show, and Living Libations is a great,
great way to do it.
Whatever you need to replace skin, body, baby, if you have a baby or a child.
We lather in the summer months Lila in their Love the Sun zinc-based sunblock
because it's actually natural.
So hard.
You type in natural sunblock online, you find a bunch of ones that aren't
actually natural.
For some reason, it's a loophole.
They call themselves natural.
Living Libations will give you the real deal.
The real natural one that isn't filled with toxic stuff.

We're also brought to us by our friends at Onnit, the makers of Alpha Brain.
You guys know I swear by nootropics, and Alpha Brain is my must-have go-to nootropic.
What is a nootropic?
It's earth-grown ingredients that help your brain do what it needs to do.
I'm talking about memory.
I'm talking about concentration.
I'm talking about focus.
For me, creative work.
For the past six, seven years now, eight years, I haven't done a podcast.
I haven't written a script.
I haven't acted in a TV show or a movie.
I haven't even gone out on a date or sometimes just take a couple.
I don't even have anything to do that day.
Because I want my brain to be functioning at its highest level.
It's not a stimulant.
It's not like caffeine.
It doesn't get you up.
It's like food for your brain.
I think of goldfish are like your ideas.
Alpha Brain is sprinkling food onto the top of the water for your ideas to nibble
on and come to, I'm going to say it, fruition.
Alpha Brain has been a huge, huge help in my creative life, but also just my
social life.
I mean, if you want your brain working well, I wish I knew about this in school.
I'm so glad I know about it now.
I have it in the pockets of my coats.
I have it in my car.
I have it in my travel bag.
Alpha Brain has absolutely changed my life for the better.
If you like it one-tenth as much as I do, you're about to shit your pants.
Give it a try.
They have it in powder form.
They have it in pill form.
It's absolutely wonderful.

Hope to see you on the road.
PeteHolmes.com.
All right.
Get into it.
I'm thrilled to meet you.
I really am.
Thank you.
Thank you for coming in.
Thank you for having me.
Yeah.
We were saying off mic a little bit.
You saw the pictures that roamed us, and I was,
happy.
I wasn't surprised.
And that's Richard Rohr's hat right there.
You know Richard as well?
Richard Rohr's hat.
I know Richard as well.
Yeah.
He gave me that hat, which was his.
And it's my little Richard Rohr relic overlooking my desk.
What's your connection to Romnus?
Or your relationship with him?
I knew him.
You know, first of all, years before I actually knew him,
To Be Here Now was such an important book for my generation.
That was what we all read.
And then later, of course, just because of the work I do,
I knew him.
Of course, yeah.
He really changed after his stroke.
And he became, he had been a bit of a tough guy.
And after his stroke, he became very, very sweet.
Yeah.
No, I can attest to post-stroke Ram Dass is my favorite Ram Dass.
Yeah, yeah.
Because he's an Aries.
I'm not a huge astrology person.
He was an Aries?
He's an Aries.
I'm also an Aries.
I didn't know that, but I'm not surprised.
And I don't know what he is on the Enneagram,
but my personal feeling was he might have been an achiever.
But I'm also to be projecting.
Well, you mentioned Richard Rohr,
so Richard Rohr would probably know Ram Dass' Enneagram.
I've never, I don't know if it's ever come up.
Although Richard is wrong, Richard always says I'm a seven,
and I am not a seven, although a seven,
I like to say a seven hosts this show.
I don't, I don't have a natural,
I don't grok the Enneagram the way I do like astrology
and other systems.
Oh, really?
You're more Australian?
Yeah, I mean, it always sounds interesting,
but it's not a, like I'll hear one and go,
oh, that's me.
And then I'll go, no, that's me.
And then somebody says, well, no, it's the wings and all that.
And I just get bored before I figure it out.
Yeah, no, I can dig that.
I can dig that.
But Ram Dass being,
I guess it was sort of like a humbling from the stroke.
Oh, the stroke.
Oh, he was so sweet.
The younger Ram Dass was a tough guy in a way.
Do you have any, did you meet him as before the stroke
or was it just after you knew him before?
Yeah.
How were you introduced?
You read Be Here Now?
Well, I do that kind of work, you know.
No, I'm not surprised.
I'm just looking for the story, I guess.
Yeah.
I don't know who, how it all originally,
I remember when I had been invited to actually to do something
at the White House and I called him to ask him what he thought
and if he thought I should go.
No, they're all a bunch of, you know.
He was kind of very, wow.
Really?
Uh-huh.
But once again, he became someone very different.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I do.
That was my experience.
That was the view.
I did a couple private retreats with him where, I don't know if you knew that,
he did that later in his life.
Hawaii?
Were you in Hawaii?
Yeah, I went to Hawaii.
Yeah, that's where I last saw him.
And sit with him, which was super.
Yeah, and he came to a talk I did in Hawaii and he was just in a wheelchair
and he was just so sweet.
Yeah, it's funny.
One of the reasons I'm so thrilled to talk with you is because I'm on,
I think I'm on Lesson 71.
Course in Miracles?
Yeah.
I'm really into it.
Yeah.
I'm very, very excited.
And I was like, we need to have somebody on the show.
And of course, you're the first name that comes up.
Thank you.
But yeah, no, and you're brilliant when you talk about it.
So you couldn't be talking to somebody more excited to share this time with you.
What's Lesson 71?
Lesson 71 is God's, I might get the wording a little bit wrong,
but it's God's plan for salvation is the only one that will work.
Oh, yeah.
The idea that God's plan for salvation will work and yours won't.
And the egos won't, yeah.
It's really, I mean, I find that like 65 to 70, where I am right now,
has just been real fire and amazing stuff.
Well, it's a very specific curriculum in the dismantling,
the first half of the year is dismantling a thought system based on fear.
Yeah.
And the second half is replacing that with a thought system based on love.
It's a lot like being at the gym with a trainer.
Yes.
They know which specific exercises and weights and all of that for specif
