Remember the good old days when Instagram had more inspirational quotes than memes? Lately, the platform is dominated by disagreeing opinions and ridicule for each other. One family that stands strong amidst all this pessimism is the Smiths. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have inspired their children to embrace vulnerability without hesitation. Through her talk show, Red Table Talks, the celebrity mother along with Willow Smith and Jaden Smith have spread profound wisdom.

Known to have open discussions on all aspects of life, Willow Smith seems to have followed in her parent’s footsteps. Her social media flaunts her exceptional taste and skill in music. And her art form is often interjected with various perspectives on life like a recent touching share to her story.

The artist shares some wise words by an award-winning author

Sharing a post by prominent story-teller Jay Shetty, Willow Smith sends fans a stirring message through her Instagram story. In the post, the author highlights an excerpt from his podcast On Purpose with Jay Shetty. Addressing the topic of growth, Shetty says “Find someone who loves to see you grow.” The second part of the quote explains further how the person’s motivation to see you change should be for your benefit, not theirs.

Now that is a thought-provoking comment for sure and also one that is endorsed by the ‘Whip My Hair’ singer. The quote comes from the same podcast series which once showcased Will Smith making a big revelation about his children that changed his life. That might explain the 22-year-old’s affinity for the life coach and his ability to make people open up about their self-improvement struggles.

On another podcast by Shetty, the ‘Krishna Keshava’ singer once revealed intimate details of her personal spiritual journey. Not so surprisingly, her family played a major role in it.

 Jada Pinkett Smith’s influence on Willow Smith’s spiritual journey

An icon known to delve into spirituality and healing through her music, Willow Smith has recently shared her wish to create a nomenclature for emotions as well. In 2021, she appeared on the On Purpose podcast with fellow singer Jahnavi Harrison and addressed these topics. Referring to the spiritual song they had released the past year, Shetty asked them about where the inspiration for a devotional track based on Hindu traditions came from.

Smith explains how her mother owned a collection of Hindu spiritual texts and art pieces that she shared with the 22-year-old. Later in life, those interests made a comeback. Her learnings beckoned her to make music that “inspires people and that would be in service to others.” Continuing down that path, the ‘Female Energy’ singer moves people by sharing tender messages on her social media. The recent quote from Jay Shetty on her story is just one among many.
