Consciousness Beyond the Brain: What Nearly Dying Taught Me | Robert Greene
What if your consciousness was never locked inside your head in the first place?Robert Greene, the best-selling author of The Law of the Sublime, sat down with Lewis for his sixth visit, eight years after a stroke nearly took his life. His wife saw his slurred words and drooping face, made him pull over, and called 911 about 30 seconds before he would have been brain dead.He came back to a world that seemed to sparkle, and he spent seven years writing so you could feel that without having to die. He explains why a small child gives 90% of their attention to the world while most adults give 98% to themselves, and how that shift feeds anxiety and addiction.One story stays with you: a woman in surgery, with no brain activity and her ears plugged, later described the drill and the Hotel California song playing in the room. Robert talks through near-death experience research and the old idea that awareness might run through everything, along with what his marriage taught him about letting the ego go quiet.When this one ends, you'll want to step outside and look up at the sky. Then you'll look a little longer at the person you love.The Law of the SublimeThe Daily Laws: 366 Meditations on Power, Seduction, Mastery, Strategy, and Human NatureThe Laws of Human NatureMasteryThe 50th Law: Overcoming Adversity Through FearlessnessThe 33 Strategies of WarThe Art of SeductionThe 48 Laws of PowerRobert's InstagramRobert's YoutubeIn this episode you will:Discover how Robert Greene’s near-fatal stroke taught him to see the world with new eyesRediscover the childhood sense of awe that adult routine and ego slowly buryLearn The Law of the Sublime and the doors that open you to wonderSpot the false sublime behind addiction and choose experiences that come from withinStrengthen your relationships by giving first and letting go of defensivenessFace your own mortality in a way that brings urgency instead of fearFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/2001More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

What 2,000 Episodes Taught Me About Greatness and Consistency | Lewis Howes

He shares the four lessons 2,000 conversations taught him about building a life that pulls your dreams toward you. They cover consistency, service, knowing who you’re building for and the inner work that lets good things stay. It’s a journey that started with a first grader who wrote a poem about hating school and grew up to build a school of his own.The dreams worth having don’t come from chasing harder. They come from who you become by showing up week after week.Make Money EasyThe School of GreatnessThe Greatness MindsetThe Mask of MasculinityIn this episode you will:Learn why committing for years, not months, gives you the freedom to keep going when no one is listening yetDiscover why most people quit right before things start coming to themSee how serving others builds relationships that outlast ego and open doors you can’t open aloneGet clear on who you’re building for so the right people find youUnderstand why inner work is what lets good things stay once they arriveHear how Lewis’s definition of greatness has changed over 2,000 conversations, and what he’s building toward nextFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/2000More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

You Can't Buy Inner Peace, Here's How to Find It | Yung Pueblo
You can't buy inner peace, no matter how much money or success you pile up.Yung Pueblo, an author who has meditated two hours every day for more than a decade and has finished a 60 day silent retreat, sat down with Lewis to talk about what inner peace feels like day to day. For him, it means having enough space in your mind to feel tension without letting it run your actions.Meditation got tested first in his relationship. He and his wife Sarah spent six years in what he calls a hurricane of blame. They were on a break when he sat his first 10 day retreat, and two weeks later he proposed with the tiny ring his dad had once given his mom.You'll hear why the lightning fast reaction you think is the real you is your past self defending itself, and why slowing down gives you a pause button.

Let Go of Expectations and Attract What You Desire | Lewis Howes
The thing you want most might be closer than you think, and the expectations you keep gripping could be what keeps pushing it away.Lewis goes solo in this episode to walk through five expectations that block money, love and your peace. He starts with the silent contract so many hard workers carry: I did this, so I’m owed that.He tells you about making zero dollars from his podcast for the first year, and about sleeping on his sister’s couch when a mentor told him, “Money comes to you when you’re ready for it.” He also explains why he asked his wife Martha to start therapy at the very beginning of their relationship, and how she answered, “That sounds exciting.”You’ll hear why comparing your year one to someone else’s year ten will wreck your peace, and why a simple “Would you be willing to...” can fix relationships that silent hints keep breaking. There’s also the goal he has chased for eight years without hitting it, and what changed once he stopped demanding a timeline for it.Afterward you may find yourself writing down your own silent contracts and checking the numbers less. You might ask someone for what you actually need, too, while you keep doing the work and keep your standard high.Make Money EasyThe School of GreatnessThe Greatness MindsetThe Mask of MasculinityIn this episode you will:Run the silent contracts exercise to expose the hidden “I’m owed” thoughts ending relationshipsReplace expectations with the “Would you be willing to” ask so people choose yesDrop made-up timelines that make real progress still feel like falling behindTrack your daily effort instead of the numbers to escape comparison and resentmentRelease neediness so the opportunities and people you want can finally find youFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1998More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

Heal Your Trauma or Stay at War With Yourself | Robin Sharma
The trauma you never healed is running your relationships and your work.Robin Sharma, author of The Everyday Hero Manifesto, tells Lewis about the day ten years of his private journals vanished from a cupboard, along with every fear and heartbreak he had written in them. What he took from losing them was the ability to let go.He walks through a tool he calls AFRA: the moment you get triggered, you find the feeling in your body and ask what old wound just woke up. "If it's hysterical, it's historical," he says. The bigger the overreaction, the bigger the thing that was already there.Robin admits he used to be drawn to partners who created a crisis whenever things got peaceful, and he owns his part in that. He also passes on a divorce lawyer's test for a relationship: can you enjoy 10,000 dinners with this person?You'll hear his eight forms of wealth, of which money is only one, and his five great hours rule for productivity.The Wealth Money Can't Buy: The 8 Hidden Habits to Live Your Richest LifeThe Everyday Hero Manifesto: Activate Your Positivity, Maximize Your Productivity, Serve The WorldThe 5AM Club: Own Your Morning.

How to Know You’re on the Right Path | Katt Williams
What if the dark stretch you're in right now is proof your faith is about to pay off?Katt Williams, a comedian with 14 stand-up specials, sat down with Lewis to talk about leaving home at 13 and the moment around age 20 when drug dealing could turn $100 into $700. He asked God for another way to make a living, and comedy showed up.Door-to-door sales taught him that 300 no's buy 30 yeses, and he still tells a joke to himself 35 times in the mirror before any audience hears it. To him the crowd is never wrong, so every silence is feedback he can use.His years as a teenage missionary in Haiti come up too, where he watched starving families choose joy and pride. His memoir, “Nine Lives, No Wives, and 69 Concubines,” lays out his whole life so you can decide for yourself whether any of it was luck.

What Sociopaths Really Feel | Dr. Patric Gagne
People with psychopathy still feel, just differently from everyone around them.Dr. Patric Gagne, a diagnosed sociopath who went on to earn a doctorate and work as a therapist, sat down with Lewis and told the story she tells in Sociopath: A Memoir. As a kid she learned that saying “I don't care” out loud got her in trouble, so she lied, and lying made her feel safe.She talks about the pressure she called a vice, which she relieved by breaking into homes just to sit in the quiet, and the first grade day she stabbed a classmate with a pencil. Then she explains why secondary psychopathy, which may touch 5% of people, is treatable when kids get caught early.You will hear why a therapist who doesn't absorb your pain can be the best container for it, and why stopping someone from crying can stop the brain from healing. She also gets into the shame under people pleasing and narcissism, and the question she asks her own kids: how does it feel when you feel?You may come away a little gentler with the people you never understood, and with the kid you used to be.Sociopath: A MemoirDr. Patric's InstagramDr. Patric's WebsiteThe Society for the Prevention of Disorders of AggressionIn this episode you will:Become a calm container for someone's pain without needing to empathizeRaise emotionally aware kids through boundaries, apologies and positive reinforcement instead of punishmentLearn why awareness is 80% of the work in changing destructive patternsDiscover why psychopaths can feel emotion and what actually separates them from everyone elseSpot the warning signs of sociopathy in dating, relationships and business partnershipsBreak free from people pleasing by choosing honesty over curated, falsified emotionsFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1995More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

Your Anxiety Is a Smoke Alarm, Not a Broken Brain | Dr. John Delony
What if your anxiety is a smoke alarm, and your body is working perfectly?Dr. John Delony, a mental health expert with two PhDs, sat down with Lewis and said the thing most of us dodge: if you are awake at 2:30 in the morning, something in your life is on fire. Numbing it with a drink or a screen is like duct taping a pillow over the alarm while the house burns around you.Then he got personal. While he was writing Building a Non-Anxious Life, his wife walked into his basement gym and told him, “I'm watching my husband die,” and then, “John, we have enough.” His little girl would not hug him, and in counseling he could not put a fist to his chest and say “I love this guy.”Back then he would have rated himself a zero out of ten on being enough. Now he says nine, and his daughter uses him as a jungle gym. He and Lewis also talk about why “me over us” hurts so many relationships and how paying off debt let him grieve a cousin without a single worry about money.You'll finish this one wanting to put your phone down and ask what your own alarm has been trying to tell you about your marriage and your kids.Building a Non-Anxious LifeOwn Your Past Change Your Future: A Not-So-Complicated Approach to Relationships, Mental Health & WellnessRedefining Anxiety: What It Is, What It Isn't, and How to Get Your Life BackJohn's InstagramJohn's YouTubeJohn's FacebookIn this episode you will:Hear how Dr. John Delony went from 0/10 to 9/10 on believing he is enoughUse neuroception to understand why your kids pull away when you stop feeling safe to themDiscover why anxiety is a smoke alarm proving your body works perfectly, not a flaw to silenceBreak the common male lie that your only value is your utilityBuild an antifragile life where hard seasons bring grief without spiraling into anxietyReplace rigid beliefs with shared values so your relationships choose us over meFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1994More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

You keep making the same mistake because you haven't failed enough yet. That sounds harsh until you hear the reasoning, and then it feels like relief.Shi Heng Yi, a 35th generation Shaolin master who has practiced kung fu since age four, sat down with Lewis and explained why manifestation stalls for most people.

How Stress Can Cause a Heart Attack (And How to Heal) | Dr. Tara Narula
Stress can give you a real heart attack even when your arteries are perfectly healthy. Doctors call it broken heart syndrome, and it can follow losing someone you love or even winning the lottery.Dr. Tara Narula, a board certified cardiologist and chief medical correspondent for ABC News, sat down with Lewis and shared what her patients say when she asks how they are. Almost nobody mentions blood pressure. They tell her they are overwhelmed, and many of them cry.She knows that fear from the inside. At 22, in medical school, she lost vision in part of her right eye and spent the first weeks reading every stumble as proof of something worse. A note card from her mom with the Serenity Prayer pulled her out of the spiral.In The Healing Power of Resilience she lays out eight tools, and she walks Lewis through acceptance and flexible thinking, then makes the case for purpose and real social connection.

A Divorce Lawyer on the Small Things That End Marriages | James Sexton
A marriage can end over a bag of granola, a full year before anyone says the word divorce.James Sexton, a divorce lawyer for over two decades, sat down with Lewis and told the story of a client whose husband always quietly restocked her favorite granola. One day the bag ran out and he never noticed. She knew right then that it was over.He calls marriage a technology that fails about 53% of the time, and says most couples put more thought into the wedding cake than into what they are signing. In his book If You're in My Office, It's Already Too Late: A Divorce Lawyer's Guide to Staying Together, he shares what works: send the hard email while the hurt is still small, and get a prenup even when you feel certain. He also explains why infidelity usually starts with lost connection long before anyone cheats.The line I keep repeating to people: the opposite of love is indifference. And he still believes in marriage. He compares it to the lottery, where the prize is so good that it is worth buying a ticket.You will finish this one wanting to do some small, kind thing for your partner tonight without asking for credit.

Secret Service Agent: How to Get Anyone to Tell You the Truth | Brad Beeler
People tell you the truth when they feel safe, and one raised eyebrow can shut them down.Brad Beeler, who spent 25 years as a US Secret Service agent and polygraph examiner, sat down with Lewis and explained how he got a couple thousand people to open up about the worst things they had ever done. His rule is simple: never punish the disclosure. He once watched a suspect go silent the second a flash of contempt crossed his face.You will hear why a neutral face reads as a threat in first impressions and why lie detection is close to a coin flip, with people getting it right only 54% of the time. Brad watches your feet to see how comfortable you are, and he treats every cue as a check engine light to follow up on later. He also shares the cases he got wrong, including the day he fixated on a 6 foot 4 biker while the quiet man in front of him kept saying “that's not it.”His book, Tell Me Everything, grew out of those mistakes, and the lessons carry straight into your relationships and your parenting. Swap “why did you do that” for “help me understand” and give the other person an off ramp to save face. Lewis admits how hard that is when someone has hurt you, and Brad admits he lost his cool with his own son's coach.After this one, you will catch your own face in the next hard conversation. And you will probably ask one more question before you say “me too.”Tell Me Everything: A Secret Service Agent's Proven Strategies for Earning Trust, Revealing the Truth, and Communicating with AnyoneBrad's WebsiteBrad's InstagramIn this episode you will:Discover why a Secret Service polygraph expert says spotting lies from body language barely beats a coin flipCreate the judgment free environment that makes people feel safe telling you the truthLearn the Buddy framework for giving someone an off-ramp to confess without excusing what they didBuild instant rapport with Brad Beeler's FEEL method: family, education, employment, leisureTreat first impressions as a hypothesis so horns and halos stop steering you wrongProtect your face from flashing contempt and shutting down a hard disclosureFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1990More SOG episodes we think you’ll love!

I Was a Champion on the Field and Broken at Home | Terry Bradshaw
You can win four Super Bowls and still spend every game afraid of losing.Terry Bradshaw, a Pro Football Hall of Famer and longtime host of Fox NFL Sunday, sat down with Lewis and admitted he was never confident as an NFL quarterback. Fear cost him his throwing motion, and he completed just 51.9% of his passes. Underneath it all were his mother’s words when he was eight: you’ll never amount to anything.He talks openly about depression and ADHD, which he didn’t learn about until after football. He also talks about three divorces, and the moment it hit him that the common factor was him. Three years of counseling and a hard look in the mirror later, he married his best friend, a woman who makes him talk about what he’d rather bury.In his memoir Looking for Terry, and in this conversation, he explains why he sobbed over his dog but not his mother, and how his wife taught him to say no. He also shares how his faith held through cancer twice in one year, and why he cares more about kindness than greatness.You’ll come away gentler with your own fear, and maybe ready to ask for the help you’ve been putting off.

Budgets Don't Work, Automation Makes You Rich | David Bach
Four out of ten people can't put their hands on $400 in an emergency, and almost none of them know why.David Bach, who spent nine years at Morgan Stanley and co-founded an advisory firm with more than $7 billion on its platform, sat down with Lewis and made the case that budgets fail everyone while automation quietly works. His book The Latte Factor tells the story through a broke travel editor in Brooklyn who works 70 hours a week and never goes anywhere. He also explains the Rule of 72, why a new car payment eats three months of your year, and how selling a home you live in can hand you a quarter million dollars the government never touches.The part that will stay with you has nothing to do with money. His grandmother was broke at 30, saved 50 cents a week in a coffee can, and helped him buy his first share of McDonald's stock when he was seven. On her deathbed at 86, he asked her about regrets. Every single one was a fork in the road where she chose the safe path.Then Lewis puts his own finances on the table and gets told what he's still missing. David talks about sitting in a hospital waiting room days before this conversation, sure his wife was having a stroke, and what that did to his sense of what actually matters. His last piece of advice is about forgiving someone you stopped speaking to.You will pull out your phone and look at your subscriptions.

The questions you ask on autopilot might be the reason you feel lonely in a room full of people.Vanessa Van Edwards, a behavioral researcher who has studied master conversationalists for two decades, sat down with Lewis to talk about why so much of our talking leaves us empty. One in six people worldwide are affected by loneliness, and she believes the way we talk to AI is quietly changing the way we talk to each other.In her book Conversation, she lays out three levels of connection, from basic facts all the way up to the private story you tell yourself about yourself. She explains why “Been busy?” is the single worst question in small talk, and why asking for stories beats asking for facts every time.The most honest moment comes when Lewis asks what she still struggles with. Her answer is charging for her own work, a belief she traces back to her early twenties, and you get to hear a level three conversation happen live.You will walk into your next dinner or team call ready to say “tell me more” and actually mean it.
