After my football career ended with a broken wrist and a year and a half on my sister's couch, I had no backup plan, no confidence, and no idea who I was beyond being an athlete.

Over the past 13 years of interviewing the greatest minds in the world, I've distilled the patterns that separate people who stay stuck from those who breakthrough into 10 practical strategies.

In this intimate exchange, Baya and Lewis dive into the quiet courage it takes to say no without guilt and to believe that you'll still be okay when you do. She reminds us that real love isn't earned through contortion or compromise, it's built on alignment, truth, and the safety of being fully seen.What begins as a conversation about romantic boundaries unfolds into something deeper — a reflection on friendship, self-worth, and emotional honesty. Baya shares how lifelong friendships anchor her when everything else shifts, and Lewis opens up about his own recent journey of redefining what healthy relationships look like. Together, they explore the idea that outgrowing people doesn't mean failure, it means you're finally growing into yourself.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Her poetry collections Milk and Honey and The Sun and Her Flowers topped bestseller lists for years. She was performing to sold-out arenas, praised by critics and fans alike. But behind the applause, Rupi was struggling with something quieter and harder to measure—the belief that she was worthy of being seen and heard. The pain of her early life, the silence forced on her, still echoed even in her loudest moments of success.In this conversation with, Rupi opens up about how fame didn't build her confidence—it nearly buried it. She reveals the emotional cost of staying grounded when the world wants to lift you up for the wrong reasons, and how learning to pause, connect, and truly value herself became the real victory. This isn't a story about a poet's success; it's about the courage to reclaim your self-worth when every external sign says you've already “made it.”Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dr. Lisa Miller, Columbia professor and leading researcher on spirituality and mental health, shares groundbreaking neuroscience that proves we're all born with an "awakened brain", but two-thirds of us never activate it. She unpacks why depression is often misdiagnosed spiritual hunger, not medical illness, and reveals the three neural circuits that light up when we connect to something greater than ourselves. Through deeply personal stories, including her five-year struggle with infertility that ended the moment she opened her heart to adoption, Lisa shows how synchronicities aren't coincidence, they're guidance. You'll walk away knowing that your pain isn't against you, it's the doorway to discovering who you're meant to become.Dr. Miller's books:The Awakened BrainThe Spiritual ChildIn this episode you will:Discover why two-thirds of depression is actually developmental spiritual hunger, not a medical condition requiring only medicationTransform your relationship with pain by understanding the three circuits of an awakened brain: feeling loved and held, receiving divine guidance, and experiencing onenessPractice the "Hosting Council" exercise to connect with your spiritual mentors and receive wisdom from your higher self and higher powerBreak free from the prison of ego by shifting from "What do I want and how do I get it?" to "What is life showing me now?"Recognize synchronicities as divine guidance by paying attention to the high-pixel hits that carry information yet to unfold in your futureFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1841For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Tara Swart – greatness.lnk.to/1833SCPrice Pritchett – greatness.lnk.to/1821SC Dr. Caroline Leaf – greatness.lnk.to/1785SC Get more from Lewis!

You are the soul, partially incarnated." – Gary ZukavGary Zukav shares one of the most beautiful metaphors ever spoken on The School of Greatness. He describes the soul as a mothership, vast and alive, with small boats sailing around it. Each of those little boats is one of our personalities. When your personal ship moves in the same direction as the mothership, when your choices match your soul's true purpose, the wind carries you and the sea feels calm. But when you sail against that current, everything becomes a struggle.He explains that we're not guided by a soul, but expressions of it, like a cup of water taken from the ocean that is still, in essence, the ocean. This revelation first came to him during his first interview with Oprah and continues to shape how he understands love, purpose, and choice. It's a conversation that helps you imagine your life as a voyage where inner alignment decides the strength of your wind and the peace in your journey.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this rare, deeply human conversation, he sits down with Lewis to reveal how much of what we call “personality,” “luck,” or “potential” is really just conditioning—passed down through generations, reinforced by our environment, and quietly dictating what we believe we can or can't do. He explains why brilliant people often stay stuck, why talent isn't enough, and how a single shift in awareness can unlock what's been holding you back for decades.When Bob talks about paradigms, he's not speaking in abstraction, he's describing the invisible code that shapes families, careers, and even entire cultures. From his stories of athletes who quit too soon to his astonishing work transforming companies by changing their internal “programming,” Bob reveals that the real battle for success isn't out THERE, it's in the mind. This episode is a masterclass in reprogramming your life for greatness by rewriting the beliefs you didn't even know were yours.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1836"Disillusionment is the process of moving from hope that things will be different to acceptance that things are the way they are." - Baya VoceBaya Voce knows the exact moment when hope becomes a prison. She's spent years guiding couples through what might be the hardest truth in any relationship: sometimes the person you love isn't going to change, no matter how many therapy sessions you attend or heartfelt conversations you have. And that realization, that moment of disillusionment, feels like the end. But here's what most people miss: it's actually the beginning of something real. Baya walks through the painful but necessary process of grieving the relationship you thought you'd have so you can finally see the one you're actually in. She talks about how the healthiest long-term relationships die and are reborn over and over, each version requiring you to let go of what came before.What makes this conversation so powerful is how Baya dismantles the toxic cycle of the "power struggle". That exhausting pattern where you keep trying to change your partner, hoping this time will be different. Lewis opens up about his own experience, sharing how his relationship with Martha has already transformed multiple times, especially now with twins on the way. You'll learn why accepting your relationship "as is" doesn't mean settling, it means finally getting clear on whether you can actually build a life here or if it's time to walk away. This isn't about fixing your relationship. It's about getting brutally honest about what's really there.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Season 14, episode 375 reviews episode 116 with Dr. John Ratey, exploring how exercise and lifestyle shape brain health and learning. The episode highlights Naperville's Zero Hour PE case study, explains how physical activity boosts attention and academic performance, and introduces BDNF (brain-derived neurotropic factor) as “miracle grow” for the brain. Practical takeaways include exercising before challenging work or school, prioritizing low-glucose nutrition, using hormesis (fasting, intense exercise, sauna) to increase resilience, and improving sleep and stress management to support cognitive health. On today's episode #375, we review our 2021 interview with Dr. John Ratey and will learn: ✔ How physical activity boosts attention and academic performance to improve results at school or in the workplace. ✔ What should we all understand about BDNF (brain-derived neurotropic factor) also known as “miracle grow” for the brain. ✔ How to build a faster, stronger, more resilient brain with exercise, nutrition, and with understanding hormesis. Welcome back to SEASON 14 of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we connect the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning and emotional intelligence training for improved well-being, achievement, productivity and results—using what I saw as the missing link (since we weren't taught this when we were growing up in school), the application of practical neuroscience. I'm Andrea Samadi, and seven years ago, launched this podcast with a question I had never truly asked myself before: (and that is) If productivity and results matter to us—and they do now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make them happen? Most of us were never taught how to apply neuroscience to improve productivity, results, or well-being. About a decade ago, I became fascinated by the mind-brain-results connection—and how science can be applied to our everyday lives. That's why I've made it my mission to bring you the world's top experts—so together, we can explore the intersection of science and social-emotional learning. We'll break down complex ideas and turn them into practical strategies we can use every day for predictable, science-backed results. Episode 375: Featuring Dr. John Ratey For today's Episode 375, we continue with our review of past episodes as we make connections to prior learning with whatever it is that we are currently working on this year. I'll create a roadmap at the end of this season so this pathway will make sense to us (I hope!) as we piece together important parts of our success puzzle and begin to bring them to life. You'll notice that around the time of the pandemic, in 2020, our interviews took a turn towards health and wellness, and to stay on track, I created a framework of our Top 5 Health Staples on Episode 87[i], which eventually evolved into our Top 6 Health Staples. Today, we covering the first health staple of exercise, jumping to Episode 116[ii] on “The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain” with best-selling author Dr. John Ratey. Dr. Ratey is also an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and an internationally recognized expert in Neuropsychiatry. Dr. Ratey has published over 60 peer-reviewed articles and 11 books in 17 languages, including the groundbreaking ADHD “Driven to Distraction” series with Dr. Edward (Ned) Hallowell, MD. With the publication of “Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain,” Dr. Ratey established himself as one of the world's foremost authorities on the brain-fitness connection. His most recent book, “Go Wild,” explores how we can achieve optimal physical and mental health by getting in touch with our caveman roots and how we can “re-wild” our lives.

He takes us on a fascinating journey from the rotation of the Earth to the deepest mechanisms inside our skulls, explaining why your brain will literally force you to sleep—even if you're starving, even if you're in danger. There's a pressure building inside you right now, an ancient rhythm that's been governing all life on this planet since the beginning. Dr. Jandial explains that understanding your dreaming brain isn't just about interpreting weird nighttime stories—it's about understanding why you overreact at the grocery store, why you feel stressed, why you are the way you are.This conversation strips away all the mystical nonsense around dreams and gets to the raw science of what's actually happening in your skull every night. Dr. Jandial connects the dots between the material in your brain (which is made of the same stuff as everything else on Earth) and the profound experiences you have while unconscious. If you've ever wondered why we can't just stay awake forever, or what your brain is actually doing during those hours you're checked out, this episode gives you the playbook. It's not about dream interpretation books or symbolism—it's about understanding the fundamental cycle that governs your entire existence and learning how to work with it instead of against it.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Gary Zukav spent half his life addicted to sex, anger, and the relentless pursuit of external validation, until a chance meeting with physicists changed everything. In this profound conversation, he shares the moment he realized he was exploiting others while believing he was the one in control, and how that awakening led him to understand authentic power. Gary breaks down why our deepest pain, betrayal, loss, grief, is actually communication from our soul, showing us exactly what we need to heal. He explains the difference between love and fear as the only two intentions behind every action we take, and offers a step-by-step process for recognizing which one is driving us. You'll walk away understanding that healing an addiction (to anything) is one of life's greatest spiritual accomplishments, and that the smallest decisions, to stay tender when you want to harden, to pause when you want to lash out, are where true greatness lives.The Gary Zukav PodcastGary's books:The Seat of the SoulUniversal HumanDancing Wu Li Masters: An Enlightening Exploration of Quantum Physics, Eastern Philosophy, and the Interplay of Science and SpiritualityThe Heart of the Soul: Emotional AwarenessIn this episode you will:Discover the core experience every human shares, feeling inadequate and unlovable, and learn how to transform it through emotional awareness rather than avoidanceMaster the practice of scanning your body for painful physical sensations (tightness in throat, heaviness in chest, burning in solar plexus) to identify when fear is controlling your decisionsLearn why every experience in life, even devastating ones like cancer or betrayal, serves you by revealing parts of your personality you need to heal in order to give your greatest giftsUnderstand the law of attraction and karma as inseparable forces, your energy attracts like energy, and every intention you act on creates consequences you will eventually experience yourselfBreak free from the myth that success comes from external achievement and recognize that greatness lives in the smallest moments: choosing tenderness over hardness, patience over anger, giving without a hidden agendaFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1838For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Gregg Braden – greatness.lnk.to/1726SCPrice Pritchett – greatness.lnk.to/1821SCDr. Joe Dispenza – greatness.lnk.to/1809SC Get more from Lewis!

Everything around you, from the table you're sitting at to the watch on your wrist, started as a multidimensional thought in someone's mind before it became real. That's not metaphor—that's the actual process of creation happening every single day, and most of us are sleepwalking through it. Billy's spent years studying ancient wisdom and quantum mechanics, and what he's discovered is this: you're either attracting your reality or exhausting yourself chasing after it. The difference between those two approaches? One creates obstacles and distractions at every turn, while the other clears a path by doing the inner work first. When you shift from pursuit to attraction, everything from your shadow work to your daily affirmations becomes part of collapsing the reality you want into existence.Here's what makes this conversation essential: Billy lays out the exact steps to make this shift, and it's not about sitting around visualizing. It's about follow-through, gratitude for every micro-step forward, and understanding that even setbacks are growth when you're consistently taking action. He explains why so many people give up right before the breakthrough—they stop their affirmations, lose faith in the process, forget to be grateful for how far they've already come. Lewis adds a crucial piece too: when you're moving toward something real, you might have to break patterns, disconnect from certain people, even lose money or opportunities at first. That feels like failure, but it's actually the clearing that needs to happen. This isn't about getting rich quick or manifesting a parking spot—it's about fundamentally understanding that you're creating your reality whether you realize it or not, so you might as well do it consciously.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In the following years she struggled to outrun her trauma, a pattern of self-destructive behavior shadowing her like an ever-worsening thunderstorm.

About The Book: A devastating secret haunts the women of an old New England family in this rich new novel set on Winthrop Island. Audrey Fisher has struggled all her life to emerge from the shadow of her famous mother by forging a career as a world-class chef. Meredith Fisher's glamorous screen persona disguises the trauma of the tragic accident that haunts her dreams. Neither woman wants to return to the New England island they left behind and its complicated emotional ties, but Meredith has one last chance to sober up and salvage her big comeback, and where else but discreet, moneyed Winthrop Island can a famous actress spend the summer without the intrusion of other people? Until Audrey discovers an old wooden chest among the belongings of her estranged father—Mike Kennedy, proprietor of the island's only watering hole—and the astonishing contents draw the women deep into Winthrop's past and its many secrets . . . attracting the interest of their handsome neighbor, Sedge Peabody. How did a trove of paintings from one of America's greatest artists wind up in the cellar of the Mohegan Inn? And who is the mysterious woman portrayed on every canvas? On a stormy November night in 1846, Providence Dare flees Boston and boards the luxury steamship Atlantic one step ahead of the law….or so she believes. But when a catastrophic accident leaves the ship at the mercy of a mighty gale, Providence finds herself trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse with the one man who knows her real identity—the detective investigating the suspicious death of her employer, the painter Henry Irving. As the Atlantic fights for her life and the rocky shore of Winthrop Island edges closer, a desperate Providence searches for her chance to escape…before the sea swallows her without a trace. In Under the Stars, the destinies of three women converge across centuries, as a harrowing true disaster at the dawn of the steamship era evokes a complex legacy of family secrets in modern day New England.

Bob Proctor almost missed being in The Secret—a garbled voicemail nearly cost him the opportunity that would introduce millions to his work. But long before that moment, Bob had already transformed from a broke, directionless 26-year-old into someone earning over a million dollars a year cleaning offices. His journey reveals a truth most people miss: your results aren't determined by how smart you are or how hard you work, but by the paradigm—the unconscious programming—controlling your behavior. In this conversation, Bob breaks down the higher faculties we all possess but rarely develop, explains why brilliant people stay broke, and offers a roadmap for changing the conditioning that keeps us trapped. You'll walk away understanding that freedom isn't about working harder—it's about rewiring the patterns that run your life.Bob Proctor's books:Change Your Paradigm, Change Your LifeYou Were Born RichThe Secret of The Science of Getting Rich: Change Your Beliefs About Success and Money to Create The Life You WantIn this episode you will:Discover why your paradigm—not your intellect—controls your income, and how to identify the unconscious patterns keeping you stuck in the same financial reality year after yearTransform your relationship with fear by understanding the "terror barrier" and why breaking through it is the only path to growth, freedom, and the life you actually wantMaster the six higher faculties (perception, will, reason, imagination, memory, intuition) that separate humans from every other species—and learn practical ways to develop each one dailyBreak free from the trap of working harder by understanding Napoleon Hill's principle: riches never come from hard work alone, but from definite demands based on definite principlesRewire your brain through the power of repetition and gratitude, including Bob's daily practice of writing with his non-dominant hand to consciously reshape his paradigmFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1837For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Lewis Howes [SOLO] – greatness.lnk.to/1831SCDean Graziosi – greatness.lnk.to/1766SCAlex Hormozi – greatness.lnk.to/1723SC Get more from Lewis!

Picked last in games, mocked for struggling to read, criticized and underestimated at every turn, he carried those wounds into adulthood like armor. He stayed in relationships that weren't right for him just to prove he wasn't a failure. He worked relentlessly to prove wrong every kid who bullied him, every coach who doubted him, every teacher who wrote him off. But all that proving? It was exhausting. It was a performance that never ended because the applause he was seeking had to come from within. The breakthrough came when he realized that real magnetism—the kind that draws genuine love and connection into your life—doesn't come from proving your worth. It comes from owning it.In this raw solo episode, Lewis shares the pivotal shift that changed everything: the moment he stopped performing and started aligning. He opens up about how his relationship with Martha Beck taught him that trust isn't built through grand gestures or perfect words—it's built when your actions consistently match what you say. You'll discover why the most attractive people aren't the ones trying hardest to impress, but the ones who show up as healthy, grounded human beings genuinely interested in others. This isn't about becoming more interesting or talented or successful to earn love—it's about releasing the exhausting need to prove anything at all and simply owning who you already are.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Relationship expert Baya Voce reveals why the fairy tale version of love is setting us up for failure—and what actually creates lasting intimacy. She shares her personal journey from serial people-pleasing to building genuine connection, including the painful lesson of being engaged to someone who fabricated his entire identity. Most people never exit the "power struggle" phase of relationships because they've never learned the one skill that matters most: how to repair after conflict. Baya explains why therapy at the beginning of a relationship changes everything, how your nervous system—not your personality—determines who you attract, and why the ability to sit in emotional discomfort is more valuable than chemistry. You'll walk away understanding that love isn't about finding someone perfect—it's about two imperfect people learning to heal together.Sign up for Baya's newsletterFollow Baya on InstagramIn this episode you will:Discover why conflict is required for intimacy – Not optional, not avoidable, but essential for moving beyond surface connection into true partnership and interdependenceMaster the art of emotional regulation – Learn why this single skill, according to neuroscientists, determines your success in every relationship more than communication or compatibilityTransform your nervous system response – Understand how your physiological health—thyroid, cortisol, sleep—directly impacts your ability to stay calm during disagreementsBreak free from the change-accept paradox – Stop trying to fix your partner or change yourself to please them, and learn the framework for healthy boundaries that create mutual respectLearn to repair instead of run – Access the exact framework (truth, agreement, responsibility) for having difficult conversations that strengthen rather than damage your connectionFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1836For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Esther Perel – greatness.lnk.to/1686SCMartha Higareda Howes – greatness.lnk.to/1788SCJillian Turecki – greatness.lnk.to/1740SC Get more from Lewis!

All the resources were for survival. So why did they dance, hum, drum, chant, make cave paintings? Because art and beauty is crucial to human survival." - Dr. Tara SwartDr. Tara Swart is a neuroscientist who bridges the gap between ancient wisdom and modern brain science in ways that'll make you rethink everything you thought you knew about intuition. She's spent years studying how our ancestors survived—not just through logic and planning, but through art, movement, and a deep connection to their bodies that most of us have completely lost. When she talks about humans carving ostrich eggshells 60,000 years ago or making tools more beautiful than they needed to be half a million years before that, she's not just sharing history—she's revealing something profound about what we're missing in our overly rational, disconnected modern lives. That shiver down your spine when you receive unexpected news? That's not random. It's your body speaking a language we've forgotten how to hear.This conversation will change how you think about those moments when signs seem to appear everywhere, and then vanish for months. Tara explains why that's completely normal, even at the height of her own manifesting practice. She dives into why cultures across the world—from Mexican Día de los Muertos to Aboriginal Australians recognizing ancestors in black cockatoos—all understood something fundamental about staying connected to what came before us. If you've been feeling cut off from your instincts or wondering why your intuition feels muted, this is the conversation that helps you remember what your body has been trying to tell you all along.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Jim Murphy, New York Times bestselling author, shares how leaders can build resilience, reframe fear, and operate at their highest level under pressure. His approach blends performance psychology, neuroscience, and spiritual discipline. 1. Identity Beyond Roles Murphy emphasizes the risk of anchoring identity in professional roles or achievements: “When I lost baseball due to injury, I felt like I lost everything. My whole identity was wrapped up in that role.” For executives and consultants, this is a reminder: leadership requires identity that outlasts titles, deals, or short-term wins. Anchoring in deeper values creates long-term stability. 2. Fear as a Performance Constraint Murphy defines fear as “a byproduct of self-centeredness.” The executive cost is high: constant comparison, judgment, and anxiety undermine decision-making. He identifies three key obstacles to peak performance: Excessive, scattered thoughts Negative or judgmental self-talk Concern with others' opinions “When you're at your very best … there's no concern for self. You're totally caught up in the moment.” This mirrors what elite consultants and CEOs must practice: focus on the work, not the ego. 3. Rewiring Fear and Trauma Murphy reframes fear and phobias: “Phobias are your subconscious working perfectly to protect you.” Through structured methods and neuroplasticity, leaders can “rewire” how they respond to past failures and pressure. “You can have a phobia for 50 years, and it can be gone in less than an hour.” For executives, the takeaway is clear: performance limits are rarely permanent, they can be retrained. 4. Freedom Through Surrender and Detachment Murphy shares a practical mantra he learned from an athlete he trained: “I expect nothing. I can handle anything.” This principle strips away attachment to outcomes, freeing leaders to make bolder, less ego-driven decisions. As he puts it: “The most powerful thing anyone can do is surrender their little strength for the power that grows the grass and spins the earth.” For leaders, this translates into resilience, the ability to operate under uncertainty without fear of reputational or financial loss clouding judgment. 5. The Best Possible Life (and Career) Murphy notes: “The best possible life has one foot in joy and one foot in suffering. We can't gain wisdom without going through hard things.” For high performers, this is a critical leadership principle: growth requires discomfort. A career without setbacks yields little wisdom. 6. Practical Tools Leaders Can Use Murphy provides several techniques executives can adopt immediately: Breath control: slowing to 5–6 breaths per minute to stabilize thought patterns under pressure. Structured reflection: gratitude, presence, and visualization as part of a daily routine. Ego discipline: exercises that reduce the need for external validation and increase clarity in communication.

Growing up watching her parents navigate rough patches, she learned early that marriage isn't about perfection—it's about commitment through the messy, uncertain middle. When she was 16, frustrated watching her parents struggle, her mom told her something that changed everything: "Your 16 years are a fraction of our marriage. We've had good times and bad times. Your little window into this is not the full story." That wisdom shaped how Kerry approaches her own marriage today, especially while juggling demanding film schedules and raising kids. She reveals how she and her husband don't wait for crisis to do the work—they treat their relationship like going to the gym, showing up consistently to strengthen what matters most.What makes this conversation so powerful is Kerry's honesty about separating ego from love when both partners are evolving in high-stakes careers. She shares how they transformed their marriage by viewing it as a "third entity"—not just give-and-take between two people, but something sacred they both pour into. Instead of keeping score of who sacrificed what, they invest in a shared emotional bank account that sustains them through separation, exhaustion, and the chaos of modern life. Her approach to therapy isn't about fixing what's broken; it's about actively celebrating what's working, acknowledging each other's efforts, and creating space to grow together rather than apart.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

You're not taking anything with you—it all goes back into the pool." - Dan MartellDan Martell learned something that most wealthy people never figure out: money doesn't make you rich if you're still thinking like you're broke. He watches entrepreneurs obsess over what everything costs—converting hotel rooms into iPhones, weighing every dinner against what that cash could do in their business—while their families slip through their fingers. The shift happened when he stopped asking "what does this cost?" and started asking "what is this worth?" Now he forces himself to pre-allocate money that must be spent on experiences, gathering 18 family members on a mountain every two years, creating memories that make his McLaren and private jet feel meaningless in comparison. It's a perspective shift born from understanding something visceral: you're playing a game where all the chips go back in the box at the end.This is about breaking free from the mental prison that traps people even after they've made it. Dan walks through why your calendar and bank account are the only honest reflection of your priorities—not your words, not your intentions. He reveals the psychological trap of opportunity cost thinking that keeps successful people from actually living, and shares the specific systems he uses to force himself into prioritizing what matters. You'll hear why entrepreneurs will drop fifty grand on marketing consultants but won't invest five hundred in their marriage, and how shifting from cost-based to worth-based thinking changes everything about how you experience wealth.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

For years, I chased relationships from a wounded place, trying to prove my worth instead of owning it. I made partners my entire world, confused chemistry with compatibility, and stayed in relationships way longer than I should have because I lacked the courage to speak my truth. Everything shifted when I learned these five lessons about magnetism, healing, and what real love actually requires. This isn't theory - this is what worked for me after years of painful patterns, intensive therapy, and finally learning to choose alignment over chemistry. If you've ever felt stuck in the chase, attracted to the wrong people, or unsure why healthy relationships feel unfamiliar, this episode will show you exactly what needs to shift.Make Money Easy: Create Financial Freedom and Live a Richer LifeThe Greatness Mindset: Unlock the Power of Your Mind and Live Your Best Life TodayThe Mask of Masculinity: How Men Can Embrace Vulnerability, Create Strong Relationships, and Live Their Fullest LivesThe School of Greatness: A Real-World Guide to Living Bigger, Loving Deeper, and Leaving a LegacyIn this episode you will:Discover why making someone your entire world pushes them away - and how to build a full life that makes you magnetic instead of clingyTransform your dating criteria by understanding the critical difference between shared interests and shared values (and why only one actually lasts)Break free from the cycle of chasing people who trigger your wounds by learning to recognize when attraction is actually a red flag from your nervous systemMaster the daily choice framework that turns fleeting chemistry into lasting love - because real relationships aren't built on sparks, they're built on consistent characterUnlock true magnetism by shifting from proving your worth to owning it - the one change that makes healthy people finally feel attractive to youFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1834For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Matthew Hussey – greatness.lnk.to/1782SCMartha Higareda Howes – greatness.lnk.to/1797SCJillian Turecki – greatness.lnk.to/1740SC Get more from Lewis!

Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1831Lewis used to wear exhaustion like a badge of honor. He'd grind into the night, believing rest was for the weak and that success demanded sacrifice. But what he discovered shocked him: those sleepless nights weren't building his empire—they were destroying it. He became reactive, gained weight, lost his gratitude, and found himself angry at the world. The hustle culture lie had convinced him that more hours meant more money, when the opposite was true. His breakthrough came when he realized that sleep wasn't stealing time from success—it was the foundation of it. A rested mind creates clarity, better energy, calmer reactions, and the magnetic presence that actually attracts opportunity.This episode dismantles the myth that sleep is lazy. Lewis reveals how protecting your rest becomes your most underrated wealth strategy, sharing the neuroscience behind why your best business ideas arrive after deep sleep, not during midnight work sessions. He walks through his own nighttime protocol—the sacred one-hour wind-down, the power of setting an adult bedtime, and why dimming the lights signals your brain to shift into restoration mode. If you've been running on fumes thinking you're building something, this conversation will challenge everything you believe about productivity and show you how the most successful people don't outwork everyone—they out-rest them.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dr. Tara Swart walked into her first interview with Lewis three years ago barely holding it together. Ten months after losing her husband to illness, she was drowning in grief she refused to suppress. Now, she's back with a revelation that bridges hard science and ancient wisdom: our lost loved ones, our ancestors, and the universe itself are constantly communicating with us through signs. From infinity symbols appearing in impossible places to bumping into the exact actress her late father "approved" her to meet, Tara has documented thousands of stories proving we're more connected than we've been taught to believe. This conversation strips away the spiritual fluff and gets to the neuroscience of intuition. She dives into why we have 34 senses we never learned about, how trauma lives in our tissues, and what happens when we finally stop ignoring what our bodies have been screaming at us all along.Dr. Tara's books:The Signs: The New Science of How to Trust Your InstinctsThe Source: A Transformative Guide to Unlocking Your Mind, Harnessing Neuroplasticity, and Manifesting Success Through the Power of the Law of AttractionDr.Tara's podcast Reinvent Yourself with Dr. TaraIn this episode you will:Discover why suppressing grief is the most dangerous thing you can do—and the one practice that allows you to heal from the bottom up instead of covering pain with productivityTransform your relationship with intuition by understanding the 34 senses you never knew you had (including why your immune system counts as one)Break through skepticism about signs from lost loved ones with a simple experiment anyone can try—even if you think it's "woo woo"Access hidden wisdom trapped in your body through movement, sound, and nature rather than just talking or journaling your way through traumaRewire your brain for possibility by cultivating the art of noticing—starting with beauty and ending with unmistakable synchronicities that stop you in your tracksFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1833For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Liz Gilbert – greatness.lnk.to/1681SCDr. Andrew Huberman – greatness.lnk.to/1830SCSadhguru – greatness.lnk.to/1800SC Get more from Lewis!

I can't tell you why. Like for once it's a short sentence. I don't know why, but it works." - Andrew HubermanAndrew Huberman doesn't just study the brain—he's lived through the chaos of a mind that won't quiet down. In this raw conversation, the neuroscientist opens up about discovering prayer not as religious obligation, but as the ultimate tool for unburdening yourself and the people around you. He talks about those moments when your mind spirals, when you're trying to control everything and everyone, when love and anger get tangled up in ways that exhaust you. That's when he learned to give it over, to ask for feelings to be taken away so he could see clearly again. And here's what's remarkable: he admits he can't explain why it works. A scientist comfortable with mystery—that's when you know something's real.But Huberman doesn't leave you floating in the spiritual. He breaks down the one framework that changed everything for him: understanding your cortisol rhythm. High in the morning, low at night. That's it. Use those as your bookends, and suddenly the protocols everyone argues about—morning sunlight, resistance training, breathwork—they all make sense. He shares why whatever people mock today becomes mainstream tomorrow (remember when resistance training was "just for bodybuilders"?), and reveals the simple pattern that, when you get it right, makes everything else fall into place. This isn't about adding more to your routine. It's about syncing with the rhythm your body was designed for.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Let the world close the doors, and walk through the ones that remain open." - Jay ShettyJay Shetty walked out of a monastery with nothing—no family wealth, no safety net, no backup plan. While his friends inherited property portfolios and BMWs, he had to scratch and claw his way into building a life from zero. But here's what blew his mind: those same friends with everything handed to them? Many never found careers. Never found purpose. Some are still searching. Meanwhile, Jay's emptiness became his greatest advantage. When you have no choice but to figure it out, you develop a different muscle—one that transforms limitation into possibility. His spiritual mentor told him something years ago that changed everything: stop trying to pick the "right" door. Your job is to open as many doors as possible and walk through the ones the world doesn't close. Most of us stare at two options, paralyzed by the illusion that life is binary. But Jay's learned from watching monks and millionaires alike that the people who thrive aren't the ones with the best circumstances—they're the ones who refuse to believe they've run out of options.This conversation cuts through the myth that your environment determines your destiny. Jay shares the Edison wisdom that haunts him in the best way: "When you believe you've exhausted all options, remember this—you haven't." It's not about the first ten ideas your mind generates (those are always the obvious ones). It's about pushing past that initial resistance to idea eleven, twelve, twenty—where real innovation lives. Whether you came from abundance or scarcity, had supportive parents or toxic ones, grew up in paradise or a wasteland, Jay's message lands the same: you have way more influence over your life than you think. The moment you accept that truth, even if you don't fully believe it yet, you create a crack in the wall—and that's all you need to start breaking through.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dan Martell didn't just escape a destructive path that led him to juvenile detention twice—he completely rewired his relationship with worth, value, and time. Now he coaches some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world, and what he's learned might surprise you: the biggest thing holding people back isn't lack of opportunity or talent. It's their money story, their unwillingness to invest in themselves, and their inability to buy back their time. In this raw conversation, Dan breaks down why wealth isn't about working harder, it's about becoming more valuable. He shares the exact three-step framework (audit, transfer, fill) that allows you to reclaim your calendar and scale without burning out.

It's not the wealth—it's who you became." - Dr. Joe DispenzaDr. Joe Dispenza shares the story that stopped me in my tracks: a man who attempted suicide three times, who couldn't scrape together two dollars, walked into one of Joe's events carrying nothing but desperation. Today, that same man is worth hundreds of millions of dollars—and he can't give it away fast enough. But here's what shook me: his first instinct after creating wealth wasn't to hoard it or protect it. It was to give. Why? Because he'd fundamentally rewired who he was. He'd sat with the discomfort of lack long enough to understand it wasn't his identity. He stopped letting his body's addiction to familiar feelings of scarcity dictate his thoughts, and in doing so, he didn't just heal his bank account—he healed his heart, his mind, and his entire relationship with abundance.Joe breaks down exactly why most of us stay stuck in cycles of lack, even when we desperately want to change. Your body—your unconscious mind—has been conditioned to feel a certain way, and it's literally addicted to those familiar emotions. When you try to think differently, your body revolts like you're breaking any other addiction, flooding you with cravings to return to old patterns. But Joe reveals the practice that changes everything: sitting with yourself without distraction, watching the thoughts that come up (those are exactly why you're not abundant), and mentally rehearsing how an abundant person would walk, breathe, speak, and move through their day. When you do this consistently, your brain can't tell the difference between the rehearsal and reality—you start installing the neurological hardware of abundance before you ever see a dollar.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I spent years believing that working harder meant sleeping less, saying yes to everything, and constantly reacting to other people's demands.

The truth is, the small, consistent habits I'm about to share with you turned chaos into clarity, and that clarity turned into money. These aren't fluffy feel-good practices. They're real wealth-building rituals that shift how I think, move, and show up every single day.
