Jada Pinkett Smith, Willow Smith, and Adrienne “Gammy” Banfield-Norris are continuing to grow and learn in the upcoming episode of Facebook Watch’s Red Table Talk. 360APROKO has a sneak peek of Jada, her daughter, and mom speaking with best-selling author and frequent TED talk speaker Brené Brown about her studies in vulnerability, shame, guilt, fear and self-doubt.
“So you’re saying every choice that you make in taking care of yourself slowly builds that internal self-trust,” says Jada, pondering on the renowned researcher’s advice. “That makes all the sense in the world.”
“But let me ask this though, is there ever a time where there is too much of that?” Gammy then asks the group before telling Jada, “Because sometimes I think that you take on so much.”
The 49-year-old actress admits, “I think that’s part of my codependency as well because I don’t want to burden anybody. You know, I want to help everybody, but I damn sure don’t want anybody to feel like they got to help me.”
The topic of codependency was a sensitive topic even for Brené, who jokingly told the women, “You do not wanna talk about this.”
Also in the episode, Willow opens up about a time when she felt shamed by Jada and her dad, Will Smith.
