    Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco EXCLUSIVE: Their Love Story Like You’ve Never Heard Before

    How did Selena and Benny first meet? What makes their love story unique? On today’s episode of On Purpose, Jay sits down with global superstar Selena Gomez and acclaimed music producer Benny Blanco where they share their love story like they never have before. They open up about their personal journey—one that didn’t start with an immediate spark. Their story is full of humor, mixed signals, and that moment when it all clicked. Benny once thought Selena didn’t like him, while Selena, protecting her heart, kept her distance. But as their friendship grew, they built something real—a relationship rooted in trust, respect, open communication, and always supporting each other. Their story is a true testament that love unfolds when the timing is right. Together, Jay, Selena, and Benny reflect on the power of embracing love, letting go of past fears, and choosing a partner who helps you grow. Their journey serves as a beautiful reminder that love often comes when you least expect it—but when it’s right, you’ll know. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Build a Strong Friendship Before Dating How to Communicate Openly in a Relationship How to Maintain Trust in a Long-Distance Relationship How to Support Your Partner’s Emotional Needs How to Balance a Busy Career with a Healthy Relationship Selena and Benny’s story reminds us that true love isn’t defined by grand gestures or perfection—it’s about finding someone who sees you for who you are, supports you through life’s challenges, and makes even the simplest moments feel special.

Thank you so much for all your support - I hope to see you soon. Today, I am talking to a good friend and celebrity, Selena Gomez. Selena is a globally and culturally celebrated artist, actor, producer, entrepreneur, and philanthropist of her generation. As a recording artist, Selena has sold more than 210 million singles worldwide and has over 45 billion global streams. Her upcoming biographical documentary, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, is out right now. In 2019, she launched her beauty line, Rare Beauty, exclusively with Sephora. As part of the partnership, Selena announced the Rare Impact Fund pledging to raise $100M for mental health services for individuals in underserved communities. Philanthropy and activism have been key pillars of her career and she's used her platform to advocate for many important causes. Selena has raised millions of dollars for charity including Global Citizen and Lupus Research Alliance.    Selena bravely tells her story about her long battle with mental health and how this led to her life mission to help spread mental health awareness around the world and provide mental health services for the less privileged. I get to deeply understand her inner thoughts on topics such as dealing with pressure of being a celebrity and the gossip that comes with it, finding self healing, embracing change, being one with your inner self, and living day by day being content, kind, and full of love to share.  Life isn’t a simple journey, but despite the complications, challenges, and struggles, we can always find it in our hearts to tap into our inner good and be compassionate, especially to ourselves.    What We Discuss: 00:00:00 Intro00:04:21 Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me documentary00:06:59 Sharing our darkest secrets with others00:10:04 Befriending your own inner critic00:13:39 Learning to be more compassionate towards yourself and others00:18:59 Taking control of your own story00:26:04 Getting asked frustrating questions00:24:39 No one is perfect, even celebrities00:27:40 How do you deal with imperfections?00:33:03 Areas in your life that made you who you are00:35:07 Embracing change00:39:36 Mental health awareness00:43:59 You have to be aware of people00:48:10 How do you deal with fears?00:51:23 What is your intention?00:56:13 Sometimes parents project perfection around their children00:59:57 Pain, suffering, growth01:06:09 Wondermind - mental fitness01:09:30 You’ll figure it out, keep going01:12:18 Missteps parents may have taken01:23:07 Producing the series 13 Reasons Why01:27:50 Selena and Mandy on Final FiveEpisode Resources Selena Gomez | WebsiteSelena Gomez | FacebookSelena Gomez | TwitterSelena Gomez | InstagramSelena Gomez | YouTubeDo you want to meditate daily with me?
