Turn Your Pain Into Power | Rupi Kaur

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/1678“I had to learn that success doesn’t heal you—self-worth does.” – Rupi KaurWhen Rupi Kaur first became a literary phenomenon, it looked like the dream. 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.

Why Life Feels Hard Until You Align With Your Soul | Gary Zukav

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/1838"You don’t have a soul. 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.

How To Break Free From The Mental Programming Controlling Your Life | Bob Proctor

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/1837"You’ve got to change your paradigm — because your paradigm is what’s running your life." – Bob ProctorBob Proctor had a way of making you see the invisible threads that run your life. 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.

Why Accepting Your Relationship As Is Might Save It | Baya Voce

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.

If You Want To Live Better While Awake, Master This While You Sleep | Dr. Rahul Jandial

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/1603"The waking brain and the sleeping brain are doing a 24-hour cycle for as long as the run you have on this planet." - Dr. Rahul JandialDr. Rahul Jandial, a neurosurgeon who operates on human brains, reveals something most of us have never considered: we spend a third of our lives in a completely different state of consciousness, and what happens there shapes everything about who we are when we're awake. 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.

How To ATTRACT Everything You Want Instead Of Chasing It | Billy Carson

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.

Stop Proving Yourself To Others & Start Owning Your Worth | Lewis Howes

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/1834"The only thing you should be proving is yourself right about improving yourself and creating alignment in your life." - Lewis HowesLewis Howes spent years chasing—chasing approval, chasing validation, chasing proof that he was enough. 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.

If You Feel Disconnected From Your Intuition, Listen To This | Dr. Tara Swart

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/1833"Our ancestors didn't have spare resources for anything that was just fun or a luxury. 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.

The Secret To A Strong Marriage No One Talks About | Kerry Washington

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/1768"We spend a lot of time in therapy consciously talking about what we're doing well and acknowledging that for each other—it's really important to not take for granted that there are good things to celebrate." - Kerry WashingtonKerry Washington opens up about what most people get wrong about lasting relationships. 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.

Why Rich People Still Think Poor (And How To Stop) | Dan Martell

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/1832"If you had two weeks to live and couldn't tell anyone, you'd get everyone in one house and pour into them. 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.

How To Turn Sleep Into Your Most Powerful Money Habit | Lewis Howes

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.

How To Eliminate Daily Stress By Mastering This One Framework | Andrew Huberman

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/1830"I can't tell you why prayer works, and I kinda love that. 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.

When You Think You've Run Out Of Options, Do This | Jay Shetty

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/1781"Your role should be to open up every door possible. 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.

How To Destroy Your Scarcity Mindset In 10 Minutes A Day | Dr. Joe Dispenza

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/1829"The overcoming process is the becoming process. 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.

How To Stop People-Pleasing And Protect Your Peace | Lewis Howes

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/1828"It creates a war inside of you. It does not build self-worth. It brings down your worth." - Lewis HowesLewis opens up about spending decades trapped in a cycle of saying yes to everything - not because he wanted to, but because he feared what people would think if he didn't. The constant people-pleasing wasn't creating connection; it was creating an internal war that drained his energy and destroyed his self-worth. He breaks down the harsh truth: when you're doing things solely for validation or to be liked, you're not protecting your peace - you're giving it away. This isn't about obligations or genuine commitments you've made; it's about those draining requests from people who only want to take, the favors that leave you feeling empty, the yeses you give just to stay in someone's good graces. Lewis challenges the belief that courage means suffering alone, revealing instead that real courage is about having the strength to ask for support and set boundaries without guilt.Lewis delivers a practical framework for reclaiming your energy and building genuine self-worth. He walks through the questions you need to ask yourself before saying yes: Am I doing this for me or for validation? Am I giving because I want to, or because I need to be liked? He introduces a simple but powerful practice - saying no to just one small thing today, even if it feels terrifying. The insight that "rejection of an opportunity is not a rejection of you" reframes how we think about boundaries entirely. Lewis reminds us that courage isn't the absence of fear - it's resistance to fear, mastery of fear. When you stop letting fear of rejection control your decisions, you finally create space for the peace and self-worth you've been searching for.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If You Think Success Lasts Forever, Listen To This | Michael Bublé

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/1827"Fame is fleeting. But obscurity is forever." - Michael BubléMichael Bublé has sold over 75 million albums worldwide, headlined massive tours, and built an empire that spans music, television, and luxury brand partnerships. Yet in this brutally honest conversation, he reveals the insecurity that still haunts him twenty years into his career - and why he deliberately chose to stay in Vancouver with his high school friends instead of moving to LA where the industry could have swallowed him whole. When he admits his wife has more Instagram followers than him and that his kids don't consider him as successful as some 20-year-old with 60 million followers, you hear the vulnerability that most celebrities would never dare share publicly.What makes this conversation so powerful isn't just Bublé's willingness to expose his doubts, but his hard-earned wisdom about separating who you are from what you do. He breaks down the difference between being successful and being perceived as successful, why he had to make the conscious choice to stay grounded, and how he's learned that the metrics of success keep changing but your character doesn't have to. This is a masterclass in maintaining authenticity when the whole world is trying to change you, told by someone who's managed to stay himself for two decades in an industry that eats people alive.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

4 Millionaire Habits You Need To Build Real Wealth | George Kamel

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/1568"97% of millionaires believe they control their financial destiny - it's less about money and more about belief." - George KamelGeorge Kamel just shattered every assumption you have about wealthy people. Forget the flashy cars and designer everything - the real millionaires are driving four-year-old used cars and saying no to things they could easily afford. George led the largest study of millionaires ever done in North America, and what he discovered will completely flip your understanding of how wealth actually gets built. These aren't trust fund babies or lottery winners - these are everyday people who cracked a code that most of us are programmed to ignore.What makes this conversation so powerful is how George connects the dots between our instant-gratification culture and why we're financially struggling. He reveals why 97% of millionaires share one crucial belief that separates them from everyone else, and it has nothing to do with their income level. Whether you're making $40,000 or $400,000, these four habits work every single time - if you're willing to embrace delayed gratification in a world that profits from your impatience. Lewis even shares his own story of driving a $4,000 car for five years while having a million in the bank, proving that true wealth builders think completely differently about money than the rest of us.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Rhonda Byrne, the woman who introduced millions to the Law of Attraction through "The Secret," reveals something most people get completely wrong about manifestation. It's not just about positive thinking - it's about understanding that every time you say "I'm broke," "I'm overwhelmed," or "I don't have enough," you're actually programming your brain to create more of exactly that. She breaks down why some people seem to have the golden touch with everything they invest in while others struggle endlessly, and it comes down to something so simple yet so profound: the difference between speaking about what you want versus what you lack.This conversation will completely shift how you talk to yourself and others. Rhonda explains why your thoughts aren't just powerful - YOU are powerful, and you're unknowingly using that power to create either abundance or scarcity in every area of your life. She shares the exact mental shifts that can transform overwhelming situations into opportunities and reveals why working harder without changing your beliefs is like running on a treadmill - lots of effort, but you're not actually going anywhere. If you've ever wondered why some people seem to effortlessly attract success while others can't break through despite their best efforts, this episode holds the key.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If You Feel Anxious And Depressed, Try This Nature Hack | Marc Berman

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/1824"When you're in beautiful nature, it can make people feel small, but small in a good way - like you're part of something bigger." - Marc BermanHere's something that will blow your mind: environmental psychologist Marc Berman discovered that simply walking through an indoor conservatory versus an indoor mall literally changes what you think about. People in nature started thinking about others. People in the mall? Only themselves. It's not just coincidence - it's your brain responding to your environment in ways you never realized. With depression rates skyrocketing 60% in the past decade and our phones hijacking our attention, Marc's research reveals something profound: nature isn't just pretty to look at, it's rewiring your neural pathways back to connection, empathy, and peace.This isn't about becoming a wilderness expert or moving to the mountains. Marc breaks down the science behind "forest bathing" - a practice that's helping people break free from the anxiety spiral that modern life creates. You'll discover why your physical environment has more control over your thoughts than you ever imagined, and how something as simple as changing where you take your daily walk can shift you from self-obsessed worry to feeling genuinely connected to something larger than yourself. If you've been caught in the endless loop of comparison and mental exhaustion, this conversation offers a surprisingly accessible path back to clarity.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If You're Making Vision Boards, STOP Doing This! | Mel Robbins

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/1170"The way to visualize properly is to visualize the bridge between where you are and where you need to go." - Mel RobbinsMel Robbins just shattered everything you think you know about manifesting and vision boards. Picture this: you're sitting in your cramped apartment, cat litter hasn't been changed in weeks, no food in the fridge, staring at a vision board filled with mansions and Lamborghinis. Sound familiar? Mel explains why this approach is actually sabotaging your success. The crushing gap between your current reality and those big dreams isn't inspiring you—it's making you feel like a complete failure. Instead of motivating you to take action, those beautiful collages of your dream life are creating a negative spiral that keeps you stuck exactly where you are.Here's where it gets fascinating: Mel reveals the visualization technique that actually works, and it's the complete opposite of what everyone teaches. She'll walk you through why you should be visualizing your broken shoelace at mile 17 of your marathon, getting rejected on cold calls, and missing parties to work on your dreams. Using examples from marathon training to UFC fighting, she shows how visualizing the brutal, uncomfortable parts of your journey literally rewires your nervous system to handle the real challenges when they hit. This isn't just theory—it's the difference between quitting when things get hard and pushing through to actually achieve what you want.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

3 Habits To Build Unshakable Confidence| Lewis Howes

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/1822"Confident people take action now. They don’t wait." – Lewis HowesLewis gets raw and real in this solo episode, digging into the micro-habits that silently shape how the world sees you—and how you see yourself. Drawing from neuroscience and lived experience, he lays out exactly how eye contact, body posture, and the tone of your voice directly influence your confidence. It’s not about faking it or trying to impress others—it’s about rewiring your brain through small, repeatable actions that tell your nervous system: “I’m safe. I’ve got this.”This isn’t a pep talk—it’s a challenge. Lewis gives you three specific “confidence reps” to practice today: Hold eye contact. Speak with clarity. Give a genuine compliment. Bonus points if you use the person’s name. It sounds simple, but these small acts done with intention are how you develop true, unshakable confidence—not next week, not next year, but right now. Confidence, he reminds us, is built just like a muscle: through repetition, strain, and the willingness to show up again and again.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We need friction in our life because that's when you grow." - Price PritchettAt 83 years old, Price Pritchett has orchestrated $350 billion worth of corporate mergers, but his most powerful insight isn't about business—it's about the guilt that stops us from pursuing what truly stirs our hearts. He's witnessed countless executives who know exactly what they need to do but can't give themselves permission to do it, trapped by the belief that chasing big dreams is somehow selfish. Pritchett reveals why this mindset is not only wrong but dangerous, explaining how our biggest goals require us to let other things "fade into the shadows"—and why that's not selfishness, it's survival.What makes this conversation extraordinary isn't just Pritchett's decades of high-stakes experience, but his raw honesty about why comfort is the enemy of growth. He challenges the modern obsession with balance and equilibrium, arguing that we need friction, discomfort, and even failure to become who we're meant to be. Through stories of billion-dollar deals and personal transformation, he shows how giving yourself permission to pursue what matters most isn't just about achieving success—it's about staying alive in the truest sense.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How To Turn Your Wounded Parts Into Your Greatest Strengths | Gabby Bernstein

Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1714"You can still be going through hard things, and do beautiful things in the world." - Gabby BernsteinGabby Bernstein used to be what she calls "parts on fire" - a workaholic living in hyper-vigilance, consumed by anxiety and control, forcing her way through life despite being sober and successful. When Lewis first met her 14 years ago, she was getting results but struggling internally, driven by wounded parts of herself that were trying to protect her but ultimately blocking her from true fulfillment. What she discovered changed everything: we all have multiple parts within us - some wounded, some controlling, some in firefighter mode - and the key isn't to eliminate them, but to heal them and create harmony between our higher self and these protective parts.Through her four-step process, Gabby learned to transform these parts rather than fight them. Her controller part that once exhausted her with force and anxiety now helps her take inspired action from a place of flow and trust. This isn't about surface-level positive thinking or typical manifesting techniques - it's about actual neural rewiring that happens when you develop a loving, parental relationship with the wounded parts of yourself. When you can turn your greatest sources of pain into your most powerful allies, everything in your life begins to shift toward the harmony and abundance you've been seeking.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1820"If you're broke, you're fighting for survival. If you're gonna break through, you're fighting for somebody else." - Brendon BurchardPicture this: Brendon Burchard looks over at the woman he loves, and she's literally sleeping under a pile of his unpaid bills. That image broke something open in him. For weeks, he'd been pretending to write, faking productivity while drowning in financial pressure. But seeing her carry the weight of his struggles? That night changed everything. He wrote for 18 straight days, emerging with a book that hit number one on Amazon and launched an empire of courses, seminars, and millions of copies sold. The breakthrough didn't come from willpower or motivation—it came from finding someone to fight for beyond himself.What Brendon discovered in that moment rewrites everything we think we know about pushing through obstacles. He reveals why self-doubt isn't actually the enemy (it's what you do when doubt shows up that matters), and breaks down the ZAPS cycle that keeps us stuck—how we zoom in on problems, attach our identity to failures, then punish ourselves into paralysis. This isn't about positive thinking or grinding harder. It's about the fundamental shift from fighting for survival to fighting for service, and why that transition unlocks a level of performance most people never access.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

My energy was at a three out of ten, and I was questioning whether I should even show up to record my podcast. But I had Robin Sharma scheduled - the guy who wrote "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" and created the 5 AM Club - and something told me not to reschedule. Five minutes into our conversation, I did something I'd never done before: I told my guest I was struggling. I admitted my energy was low, that I was going through some serious personal stuff, and that I might not be at my best. What Robin said next didn't just change that interview - it changed how I see every painful moment in my life.When you're in the thick of devastation - whether it's a brutal breakup, getting fired, losing someone you love, or facing any situation that feels like your world is ending - your body is literally processing grief. But here's what I've learned from my darkest seasons: every painful moment is preparing you for something greater. The spiritual cleansing you're going through right now, the people who are showing their true colors, the things falling away from your life - it's all happening for your future self. I'll share exactly how to create distance from your pain, how to find perspective when you're drowning, and why the worst day of your life might actually be setting you up for your greatest breakthrough.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1818"There have been shows where I have had to get out of my own way to enjoy what I've just done." - Josh GrobanJosh Groban reveals the haunting reality behind his soaring career - standing ovations that feel hollow, crushing performances followed by hour-long shame spirals where he can't speak to anyone. The Grammy-nominated artist opens up about the terrifying disconnect between external triumph and internal torment, describing how the very adrenaline that makes him brilliant on stage can leave him feeling "too wide open" to darkness afterward. At just 16, he was singing emotionally complex music for audiences who had lived experiences he hadn't, setting up a psychological pattern where success always felt borrowed, temporary, like someone might discover he didn't belong.This raw conversation cuts through the mythology of achievement to expose what happens when your biggest victories coincide with your deepest struggles. Josh's honesty about going into "low power mode" after performances, his jealousy of artists who can celebrate their wins, and his fear of being "found out" will resonate with anyone who's ever felt like a fraud in their own success story. His journey toward learning to stay present for his achievements offers hope for anyone trapped between what the world sees and what they feel inside.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

How To Reset Your Brain's Reward System & Never Feel Empty Again | Andrew Huberman

My life-changing annual event, The Summit of Greatness, is happening September 12 & 13, 2025. Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1073"I define addiction as a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure, and relief from addiction often involves a progressive expansion of the things that give them relief." - Andrew HubermanThere's a reason why achieving everything you thought you wanted can leave you feeling hollow inside, asking "now what?" Andrew Huberman breaks down the fascinating science behind why our brains get stuck in endless pursuit mode, chasing the next dopamine hit while losing the ability to appreciate what's right in front of us. He reveals how addiction isn't just about substances - it's about any pattern that narrows our capacity for joy, turning life into a tunnel vision chase for the next temporary high. But here's what's revolutionary: your brain has two distinct reward systems working simultaneously, and most people only know how to activate one.This isn't just neuroscience theory - it's a roadmap for recalibrating your entire relationship with satisfaction and ambition. Huberman explains how the dopamine system drives us toward external goals while the serotonin system helps us find contentment in what we already possess, and why both are essential for a fulfilling life. You'll discover why gratitude isn't just positive thinking but actually a biological reset button, how abundance mindset literally rewires your neural pathways, and the specific practices that can expand your capacity for pleasure instead of shrinking it. This conversation will change how you think about motivation, achievement, and what it truly means to feel fulfilled.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
