Then he'd go. And he'd come back with dinner." - Marlon WayansMarlon Wayans grew up watching his father combine faith with relentless action. Every single morning started the same way: Bible study, prayer, then that moment of looking up at God before figuring out how to feed 10 kids that day. His mother taught him something equally powerful but different: how to find joy in poverty, how to stay vulnerable when disappointments could easily make you bitter, how to love hard even when life is brutal. These weren't abstract lessons. They were daily survival skills that shaped everything about how Marlon approaches his work now. When Hollywood tells him to wait, when networks say they're booked until 2026, he hears his father's voice: don't wait for anyone to tell you you're ready.That mindset led him to self-fund his own comedy specials, film them on his terms, then license them to HBO and Amazon while keeping ownership. He's the guy who works three extra hours with his acting coach after a 14-hour shooting day because he refuses to show up unprepared. He drops a new hour of standup material every year, writing it live on stage while audiences think they're just watching a show. Most people fixate on what their parents did wrong. Marlon studied what they did right. That shift, that choice to extract wisdom instead of resentment from his upbringing, unlocked something fierce in him. His father taught him God and grit belong together. His mother taught him that joy is a choice you make, not a circumstance you wait for. Now he lives by a simple truth: everything is God, every closed door is redirection, and a thousand new doors are already open if you stop staring at the one that shut.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Rick Rubin reveals something most nine-time Grammy winners would never admit: he walks into every new project terrified because he has no control over what will happen.

You'll hear how Rick lost 135 pounds by surrendering control, why he believes wrestling is the most honest sport, and what changed when he realized greatness isn't about worldly success but about making a gift to God.

But we are just wasting our brain energy on the wrong things." - Jenna ZoeYour mind keeps telling you to figure it all out, to copy what worked for someone else, to ignore what genuinely lights you up because it seems too simple. Jenna Zoe says that's exactly the problem. She breaks down Human Design, a system that treats your body like a machine with its own operating manual, and explains why the universe speaks to you through what brings you joy, not through your overthinking mind. When you see someone else's success and try to replicate their exact path, you're working against your unique design. Different people have different energy types—generators, manifestors, projectors, reflectors—and each has a specific way of using energy that creates maximum results with minimum resistance.The revelation here isn't complicated personal development theory. It's understanding that everyone carries the same genius capacity, but most people waste their brain power trying to control outcomes instead of letting their body's wisdom guide the way. When you stop letting guilt override what genuinely excites you, when you trust that your enjoyment is divine guidance rather than distraction, your mind becomes free to do what it does best: observe, create, innovate. Jenna walks through the mechanics of how your body directs you toward your purpose, and why fighting against your natural design keeps you stuck while others seem to effortlessly manifest their dreams.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Vivian Tu walked away from Wall Street to teach a different kind of wealth building, one that starts with conversations nobody wants to have. She exposes the uncomfortable truth about proximity and money: the rich stay rich partly because they grew up watching how wealth actually works, learning the unspoken rules at dinner tables and country clubs while everyone else was left guessing. Her approach to financial success isn't about grinding harder or cutting out coffee, it's about understanding that being likable often trumps being the smartest person in the room, that your relationships with money will make or break your relationships with people, and that real wealth protection starts with conversations most couples avoid until it's too late. You'll walk away knowing exactly how to position yourself as irreplaceable at work, why women especially need their own money regardless of who they marry, and how a prenup is actually an act of love rather than a sign of distrust.Buy Vivian's book Rich AF: The Winning Money Mindset That Will Change Your LifePre order Well Endowed: The Secrets to Strategic Spending, Building a Financial Foundation for You and Your Family, and Creating Lasting Generational WealthListen to Vivian's podcast Networth and Chill with Your Rich BFFIn this episode you will:Discover why proximity to wealth matters more than talent alone and how people who grew up rich have soft skills that open doors you didn't even know existedTransform your earning potential by understanding that the most paid person isn't the smartest but the one everyone actually likes and wants to work withMaster the art of asking for raises by maintaining a brag book and strategically reminding your boss you're money motivated for six months before everyone else asks in DecemberUncover why talking about money with your partner isn't optional but essential, since money and intimacy are the top two reasons relationships failLearn the STRIP method for financial health: building emergency savings first, attacking high interest debt strategically, investing in retirement with tax advantages, actually buying assets with that retirement money, and planning your specific version of happily ever afterFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1846For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Lewis Howes [SOLO] – greatness.lnk.to/1798SCCodie Sanchez – greatness.lnk.to/1701SCLeila Hormozi – greatness.lnk.to/1735SC Get more from Lewis!

His mother had a breakdown. His father grabbed a bat and went to kill the man. Then came the arrest, the court case, and the decision that would make everything worse: going on television to talk about it. Overnight, he became the kid nobody wanted their children near. Teachers whispered. Parents pulled their kids away. The bullying intensified. He was labeled damaged goods, living proof that some wounds mark you forever. But one summer, his Uncle Marvin asked him a question nobody else had bothered with: "How are you feeling?" They sat together working through emotional vocabulary, and Marc realized he couldn't name a single time he'd felt elated, but he could talk all day about feeling alienated. That conversation became the foundation for everything that followed.Years later, Marc saw "Emotional Intelligence" on the cover of Time Magazine and recognized his uncle's work from twenty years earlier. He pulled Uncle Marvin out of retirement, and they met at a Dunkin Donuts in Fort Lauderdale to build a curriculum that would eventually change how schools teach kids about emotions. Marc earned his PhD studying with the scientists who pioneered emotional intelligence research, got a fifth degree black belt in Hapkido, practiced Zen meditation, and spent three decades researching what it actually takes to heal. Now a professor at Yale (the same school that once rejected him), he's honest about what it required: an uncle who cared enough to ask, thirty years of dedicated study, martial arts discipline, and relentless inner work. Lewis and Marc dig into why accomplishing every goal on your list means nothing if you still don't feel enough, and how emotional education is the missing piece most people never get access to.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Grateful Dead's desire to create the best sound for their audience led to the construction of the legendary Wall Of Sound, a sound amplification system that grew to enormous proportions with one goal in mind: to make their live concerts loud, but clear. It was one of the many technical innovations that sprung out of the Grateful Dead's inner circle, and it impacted all of live music as we hear it today. In the new bonus episode of the Behind The Song podcast, listen in as Janda chats with New York Times Best-Selling author Brian Anderson about the fascinating ways The Grateful Dead were true innovators as they discuss his page-turning book “Loud and Clear: The Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound and the Quest for Audio Perfection.” See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Helen Schulman is an acclaimed novelist, screenwriter, short story writer and New York Times Bestselling author. In my 40th episode, we talk about the concept of "sympathetic happiness", as she shares her impactful encounter with the Dalai Lama many years back. She was visiting Portland, Oregon for the first time, exploring the city, when she basically stumbled over His Holiness: he was giving a free public audience in Pioneer Square, Helen had never heard him speak before so she stuck around. His topic was "sympathetic happiness". The idea being that if you can join in the happiness of others, your own happiness will multiply. His deceptively simple and profound theories really struck her - she had been teaching grad school for quite awhile by then, and realised that if she could be really happy for her students' successes, if their joy became her joy her life would become fuller and richer and well, happier. She always felt happy for them, but now she could focus on also being happy through them. It was a small good thing that happened to her that day, but it has really affected the rest of her life and her work as an educator.Once Helen understood this concept, it made it easier and more compelling for her to build programs that she thought would help her students reach their dreams, and also, pragmatically, help them find agents and editors, and outside work.Helen also talks about her new book "Fools for Love" that was just published in July during this recording, and she had a book launch at Rizzoli's in New York City. It's a collection of short stories, that she edited and interconnected so that they relate to each other. She also shares how she learned how to waltz from her grandmother, and how she relearned it with her husband last year in a dance class in a beautiful castle in the South of Germany (she wrote a piece about this for the Condé Nast Traveller).HELEN SCHULMAN is a novelist, screenwriter and short story writer. A collection of stories, Fools for Love, has been published by Knopf in July 2025. Prior to publication, the title story was published in The Atlantic. Her newest novel, Lucky Dogs, was one of Oprah Daily's top ten novels of 2023. She is also the author of the novels Come With Me (San Francisco Chronicle ten best books of 2019) This Beautiful Life (a New York Times and International Best Seller), A Day At The Beach, P.S., (made into a motion picture starring Laura Linney, Gabriel Byrne, Paul Rudd and Marcia Gay Harden, for which Professor Schulman has a screenwriting credit), The Revisionist and Out Of Time (Barnes and Noble Discovery), and the short story collection Not A Free Show. She co-edited the anthology Wanting A Child with Jill Bialosky. Her fiction and non-fiction have appeared in such places as Vanity Fair, Time, Vogue, GQ, The New York Times Book Review, A Public Space and The Paris Review. She is the Fiction Chair at The Writing Program at The New School where she is a tenured Professor of Writing. She is also the Executive Director of WriteOnNYC.com. A 2019 Guggenheim Fellow, Professor Schulman has been a NYFA Fellow, Sundance Fellow, Aspen Words Fellow, a Tennessee Williams Fellow (Columbia University) and the recipient of a Pushcart Prize.####On another note: I am so proud and excited to announce that SHIFT HAPPENS' Season 5 is supported by London based jewellery brand Tilly Sveaas.

Dr. Jessica Knurick reveals a truth most nutrition experts won't admit: our food system is designed for profit, not health, and over half of American adults are living with chronic disease as a result. As a science-based dietitian who lost her grandfather to preventable illness at 60, she's spent her career fighting back against fear-mongering and misinformation that keeps people confused and sick. In this eye-opening conversation, she exposes why seed oils aren't the villain everyone claims, how ultra-processed foods hijack your brain to make you overeat 500 calories a day, and why the most effective health advice is actually boring. You'll walk away understanding that 90 percent of nutrition science is settled and simple, but social media algorithms profit from making you believe everything is controversial and complicated.Dr. Jessica Knurick on SubstackDr. Jessica Knurick on InstagramIn this episode you will:Discover why our food system is engineered for the majority of people to fail at health, not succeed, and how this affects every choice you makeUnderstand why over 90 percent of Americans fail to meet basic vegetable and fiber intake while chronic disease continues its relentless climbBreak through the seed oil controversy by learning what the actual research shows versus what social media wants you to believe for clicksTransform your family's relationship with food using the inclusion method that gets kids excited about nutrition without the good food bad food trapMaster the art of spotting nutrition misinformation by recognizing fear-based hooks and learning who actually deserves your trust onlineFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1845For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Mark Hyman – greatness.lnk.to/1695SCDr. William Li – greatness.lnk.to/1743SCGlucose Goddess – greatness.lnk.to/1575SC 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/1842"Motivation is a feeling, but discipline is a choice. We are what we repeatedly do." - Lewis HowesLewis reveals the brutal inner voice that haunted him for years—the one that called him an idiot after every mistake, that told him he wasn't good enough, that kept him stuck in cycles of self-destruction. He shares how he spent two decades struggling to learn Spanish, constantly telling himself "I can't do this" until he discovered a simple phrase that changed everything: "I'm learning to." It sounds almost too simple, but that shift from self-criticism to self-compassion became the foundation for everything else. He talks about his basketball days, diving after loose balls, and how coaches kept him on the court not because he was the most talented, but because he hustled in the moments that mattered. That same mentality carried into his entrepreneurial journey—until it nearly destroyed him.When Lewis finally started making money after being broke on his sister's couch, he went all-in on the hustle-culture mentality. He worked 24/7, gained weight, ate garbage, stopped sleeping, and burned himself completely out. Thirteen years and almost 2,000 podcast episodes later, he's learned the truth: real hustle isn't about grinding yourself into the ground—it's about showing up consistently when no one's watching. He breaks down why discipline beats motivation every time, how to pick one non-negotiable habit that aligns with your actual vision (not someone else's), and the morning question that helps him face his fears instead of running from them. If you've been trapped between beating yourself up for not being perfect and burning out trying to prove you're enough, this is the reset you need.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I don't have to take care of the needs of my alcoholic father." - Gabor MatéGabor Maté sat across from Lewis and said something most parenting experts won't admit: he hurt his own children. Not through malice or neglect, but through something more insidious—unhealed wounds he didn't even know he carried. He reveals how your stress as a partner affects your child before they're even born, how children absorb their parents' unresolved pain like emotional sponges, and why so many well-intentioned parents end up repeating the very patterns they swore they'd never inflict. But here's what makes this conversation essential: Maté doesn't just diagnose the problem. He breaks down the four irreducible needs every child must have—needs that indigenous societies naturally provided for millennia, but that our modern world systematically denies.This isn't about perfect parenting or having all the answers before your kid arrives. It's about understanding that the work of raising healthy children starts with facing your own shadows first. Maté explains why free play matters more for brain development than any educational program, why children need to rest from the burden of managing adult emotions, and what happens when we give toddlers screens instead of space to be bored, curious, and wildly creative. Whether you're expecting your first child, struggling with teenagers, or trying to make sense of your own upbringing, this conversation illuminates why so many of us feel broken—and what it actually takes to stop that cycle.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jenna Zoe reveals why most people struggle with personal development despite reading all the books and doing all the spiritual practices. The breakthrough came when she discovered human design, a science-based system that uses neutrinos and planetary positions at your birth to reveal your authentic blueprint. She shares her journey from suppressing her emotions to fit in, playing roles in relationships that weren't really her, and feeling like a failure when things ended, to finally understanding that happiness isn't about the form your life takes but about being proud of who you're becoming along the way. You'll walk away understanding that your random quirks and unexplainable desires aren't accidents, they're the universe speaking to you, and when you stop trying to be like everyone else and start flexing those weird hidden gifts, synchronicities multiply and your real power emerges.Human Design websiteHuman Design bookAlign with Jenna Zoe: The Human Design PodcastJenna on InstagramIn this episode you will:Discover why 50 percent of people are emotional beings who need to stop suppressing their feelings and understand that cycling through highs and lows isn't dysfunction, it's their actual power sourceBreak through the conditioning that makes you choose relationships and careers based on logic instead of trusting the visceral yes or no signals your body gives you every single dayTransform your approach to manifestation by understanding the difference between ego desires that short circuit your energy and soul desires that the universe was already trying to guide you towardUncover why generators who make up 27 percent of the population can only lift others and create real impact when they're doing what genuinely lights them up, not what they think they should be doingMaster the art of making yourself proud by stretching into those uncool random parts of yourself that you've been hiding because you thought they'd never lead anywhere importantFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1844For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Dr. Joe Dispenza – greatness.lnk.to/1809SCPrice Pritchett – greatness.lnk.to/1821SCDr. Tara Swart – greatness.lnk.to/1833SC 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/1841"Right where the pain is, is the portal of entry." - Dr. Lisa MillerDr. Lisa Miller knows what it feels like to have your heart completely shattered. At 19, sitting with a pain so heavy in her chest she could barely breathe, she asked the most dangerous question someone in despair can ask: Is love even real? And if love isn't real, is God? That brutal honesty—that willingness to sit in the wreckage of a broken heart and question everything—became the doorway to understanding something revolutionary about human suffering. Through decades of research in neuroscience and psychology, she discovered what her own pain had been trying to tell her: depression isn't always the enemy we think it is. For over two-thirds of young adults, that crushing weight isn't a chemical malfunction to be medicated away—it's a spiritual alarm clock, banging on the door of your soul, demanding you wake up to a deeper way of living.This conversation will shift how you see your own struggles. Lisa reveals why that restlessness you feel—the sense that your relationship, your career, your entire life just doesn't fit anymore—might not mean you need to blow everything up and start over. Sometimes the answer isn't out there in a bigger job or different partner. It's an invitation to go inward, to discover the spiritual dimension of yourself that's been hungry for something more meaningful all along. She walks through the three unavoidable bridges we all cross (early adulthood, midlife, and our elder years) where these questions become impossible to ignore, and shares exactly how to recognize when your pain is actually propelling you toward awakening rather than destruction.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Sports Deli Podcast - Where Everyone Deserves a Seat at the Table; An Anti-Racist, Equality Pod
New York Times Best Selling author, Jeff Pearlman joined me today in The Sports Deli for one of the most fascinating conversations that I've ever had.I can't thank Jeff enough for his time and for being so gracious. We covered a lot of ground in this episode and truly hope you enjoy it as much as I did.Jeff Pearlman breaks down Tupac's life like a veteran sportswriter examining a dynasty. This detailed look at his life is the work of a writer who understands the ego of greatness.”—Chuck DPearlman delivers rich, engrossing, and fascinating new details about Shakur's life and legacy—not just once or twice—but throughout each lively page...This is the type of needed journalism, reporting, and biography that finally and deservedly provides the definitive historic account on Shakur.” -Jonathan Abrams, author of The Come Up: An Oral History of the Rise of Hip-HopScrutinized in life, mythologized in death, Tupac Shakur remains a subject of immense cultural significance and speculation nearly thirty years after his murder. Despite a multitude of books, documentaries, and even a feature film, much about Tupac's story remains shrouded and misunderstood. Like many icons who died tragically young, Tupac the man has long been obscured—his edges sanded down, his complexity numbed—by the competing agendas that surround his legacy.Thanks for the love and support and remember you're not alone. You can always dial 988 if you're having a hard day and someone will be there 24/7/365.

If you constantly live in fear, your world gets smaller and smaller." - Tony RobbinsTony Robbins breaks down why so many of us stay stuck even when we desperately want to change. He uses this brilliant metaphor: imagine your identity is like a thermostat set to 68 degrees. You might dream about hitting 98, or panic when you drop to 60, but either way, you'll sabotage yourself back to what feels familiar. It's not about willpower or motivation—it's about who you believe you are at your core. Tony shares why he still does the fire walk after all these years, and it's not some motivational gimmick. It's about giving people a visceral experience that rewires their brain in real-time. When you walk across burning coals and make it to the other side, something shifts: "If I could do that, what else could I get myself to do?" That question changes everything.What makes this conversation so powerful is how Tony dismantles the difference between beliefs and experiences. You can read every self-help book on the planet, but until you actually do something that scares you, until you break through that invisible ceiling you've built around yourself, nothing truly changes. He talks about overprotected kids who never broke a bone being more fearful than the ones who got hurt and healed—there's no substitute for lived experience. This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending fear doesn't exist. It's about understanding that your current identity, the labels you've given yourself based on your past, might be the only thing standing between you and the life you actually want. Tony shows you how to expand that identity so the breakthrough becomes inevitable.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Living simply isn't about deprivation—it's about freedom. And that freedom can unleash extraordinary generosity.God calls us to live with eternity in mind—not clinging to possessions but using what we have for His Kingdom. Randy Alcorn joins us today to talk about how we can loosen our grip on earthly things to open our hands to eternal impact.Randy Alcorn is the founder and director of Eternal Perspective Ministries (EPM) and the New York Times Bestselling author of more than 60 books, including Heaven, Money, Possessions, and Eternity, The Treasure Principle, and Giving Is the Good Life. His books have been translated into over 70 languages and have sold more than 10 million copies.Simplicity That Leads to GenerosityYou've likely heard the phrase, “Live simply, that others may simply live.” It's a short sentence with a world of meaning behind it—and one that feels increasingly relevant today.Everywhere we look, we see need. It's been that way ever since sin entered the world, but now the sheer scale is staggering—billions of people living in poverty, lacking food, clean water, or access to opportunity. When we consider this, it should be shocking to see how much of a difference it would make if those of us who follow Jesus simply chose to live on less—so that we could give more.This isn't about rejecting good gifts or living in asceticism. It's about reordering our priorities so that what God provides doesn't end with us. Living simply creates margin. And that margin can fuel generosity that transforms lives, both now and for eternity.Some people hear “simplicity” and think of minimalism for its own sake—going off the grid, cutting out every comfort, or proudly living with as little as possible. But simplicity by itself accomplishes very little.You could live the simplest life imaginable, and still not help anyone. The goal isn't simplicity—it's purposeful simplicity that opens the door to generous living.If God blesses you with wealth, there's no shame in that. In fact, that's a great opportunity. The question isn't how much do you have?—but what are you doing with what you have? Go ahead and earn well, but then invest it in God's Kingdom. Use what He's entrusted to you to love Him and to love others.That's where simplicity finds its true purpose—in freeing you to give more boldly, more joyfully, and more eternally.Seeing Life Through the Lens of EternityWhen Jesus said, “Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,” He wasn't speaking in riddles. He was revealing a reality that reshapes everything we own. But if we have no concept of Heaven—if we're not eager for the life to come—then treasures in Heaven won't mean much to us.Scripture promises that God will one day bring Heaven down to Earth—the new Earth, a renewed creation where righteousness dwells. That's our forever home. That's the world we were made for.When we live in light of that eternal perspective, it changes how we view possessions today. Why cling to what's temporary when you can invest in what lasts forever? The things of this world fade—but what's given to God's purposes endures.For many of us, money and possessions have enormous mass. But when we give generously, we shift our center of gravity from earth to eternity. We begin to orbit around God's Kingdom rather than our own comfort. That's freedom.Becoming God's Delivery SystemEverything we have comes from God—and it's meant to flow through us, not stop with us. I like to say we're not buckets, we're pipelines. God's resources are meant to move through our lives to accomplish His purposes.If the FedEx driver delivered a package to himself instead of the intended recipient, we'd say he misunderstood his job. And yet, that's what many of us do with God's provision. We assume it's all for us when in reality, we're the delivery system for His grace.The Bible says, “Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.” (1 Corinthians 4:2) Faithful stewards don't hoard. They pass along what belongs to the true Owner.We've all heard the phrase, “God owns it all.” But do we live like it's true? If we really believe that everything we have belongs to Him, then generosity isn't a burden—it's obedience.That changes how we think about earning, saving, and spending. It means asking, “Lord, what do You want us to do with Your money?” That's stewardship in its purest form—managing God's resources for God's glory.Living for the Kingdom, Not the DreamThe Bible doesn't pit generosity against joy. In fact, they belong together. Paul writes in 1 Timothy 6 that God gives us all things richly to enjoy, even as he warns us about materialism.God delights in our joy. He gives good gifts. But He also invites us to hold them loosely. Take that vacation. Enjoy a good meal. But let gratitude and generosity flow together.Living simply doesn't mean rejecting enjoyment. It means finding joy in what pleases God most—seeing our resources advance His Kingdom and bless others in His name.It's easy to justify excess when someone else always seems to have more. But if we're not careful, we can baptize greed in the name of the American dream.God calls us to something far richer—a life rooted in gratitude, freedom, and Kingdom purpose. Living simply and giving generously keeps our hearts anchored in eternity and our hands open to bless others.That's not loss. That's joy. That's freedom. That's treasure that lasts forever.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 72 years old, still teaching at a state school, and I'd like to resume making payments on my student loans. They've been in deferment, so I haven't been able to make my regular $100-a-month payments. Is there any way I can make those payments? I've been told my loans won't qualify for forgiveness until I start paying on them.My husband and I are 55 and 56, and we own a business along with several rental properties. We have about $500,000 we'd like to invest, and we're considering a hybrid life insurance policy with a benefit access rider for long-term care. We'd put in about $155,000 for a guaranteed $250,000 death benefit each, for a total of $500,000, plus any growth.

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 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.

Baya Voce opens up about the hidden cost of living in a world that promises everything without friction while our relationships demand the exact opposite.

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.

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!

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/1835"When you begin to realize you're bringing everything towards you, you're collapsing realities into existence versus chasing things, it becomes so much easier." - Billy CarsonBilly Carson doesn't talk about manifestation like some airy theory—he breaks it down like the engineer he is. 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.

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!

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!
