5d ago00:06:55Tap to summarizeLeave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1647DM You can't sweep up the dust and steel and rebuild the towers the way they stood before. That's the image Dr. John Delony uses to explain why couples get stuck after betrayal. They want the old thing back. It's gone. Delony says you get two choices. Walk away and let it go. Or hire the right help, grieve what fell, and build something new that's actually stronger. He also names the quiet poison underneath most relationship pain: me over us. How I feel right now. How you made me feel. Not what my own body is doing and why. Lewis gets honest too. Ten years ago he needed to win every conversation, be right, look good. He calls it defense mode. What changed it was choosing service over self, collaboration over competition. This one will change how you see your next hard conversation.

6d ago00:05:57Tap to summarizeLeave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1955DM A 20 year old kid in a top bunk at the University of Texas writes down 10 goals. He signs his name at the bottom like it's a real contract. Then he never looks at the list again. Not once. Thirty years later, writing his memoir, Matthew McConaughey finds that piece of paper in a box. All 10 goals had happened. Four he's still actively living out. He didn't remember writing most of them. He calls it an invisible contract that becomes non-negotiable the moment you put it on paper and sign your name to it. Not a vision board. Not a note on your phone. An actual signature, like you're making a promise to a version of yourself that hasn't shown up yet. If you've got a goal floating around in your head right now, this might be the nudge to finally write it down.

1w ago00:07:26Tap to summarizeLeave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1113DM Author Jen Hatmaker contends boys face equally damaging narratives as girls, recalling her sons’ heartbreak dispelling gender stereotypes. She feels some tropes are evolving with more identity freedom, though few role models existed addressing men’s struggles when young. Hatmaker highlights the ripple effect from Lewis opening up about sexual trauma, empowering other men to share unresolved pain too. She advocates basic humanity of listening without judgment so suffering individuals can release instead of imploding trauma. Hatmaker argues solving pent-up rage starts small through courageous vulnerability. By going first, influencers instantiate cascades of healing as people extend grace, seek counseling and halt generational damage. Overall, she uplifts shared humanity over suffering alone and encouraging anyone’s first steps toward reconciliation. Sign up for the Greatness newsletter! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1954DM David Bayer recorded a podcast episode every single week for a year. Good hook. Good content. Nothing happened. He started asking himself what was wrong. Wrong with him. Wrong with the show. Maybe it would never work. Then his son was born. He stopped checking the numbers. Stopped obsessing over why it wasn't working. His attention went somewhere else entirely. Ninety days later, the podcast took off. David breaks down why the fixation itself was the problem. Desire plus resistance keeps you stuck. Desire plus non-resistance is what actually moves things. He explains the difference, and how "what you make matter becomes matter."

Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1443DM Gaming personality Pokimane distinguishes fitting in, feeling socially acceptable, from truly belonging among people who understand your soul. She recalls always lacking deep bonds growing up due to cultural and religious differences that often excluded her socially. Pokimane explains this fostered a lifetime feeling of never quite belonging, with obligations intensifying that sentiment and loneliness. She shares how bonding online helped, but eventually realized occasional disconnect between fans' desires and her own priorities. Pokimane emphasizes needing self-awareness to reevaluate during burnout, seeking to overlap what she enjoys creating and what her audience craves for sustainable balance.

2w ago00:07:25Tap to summarizeLeave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://lewishowes.com/podcast/rainn-wilson/ Rainn Wilson moved to New York at 20 to be an actor, get the girl, and finally escape the rules of the Baha'i faith he was raised in. He got all of it. Then he woke up at 3am asking what his life was even about. That gap between "everything is working" and "I feel hollow" sent him back to the books he'd walked away from. Not just one. The Bible. The Koran. The Bhagavad Gita. The Dhammapada. He wasn't looking for religion. He was chasing the one question underneath all of it: is any of this random, or does it mean something? That search became the seed of SoulPancake.

2w ago00:07:34Tap to summarizeLeave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy! Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1952DM He hadn't told his mom he loved her since he was 12. Not once, in 28 years. He called her every week, but it was weather talk and neighbor complaints, never anything real. Gary John Bishop thought working hard was the same thing as loving someone. It wasn't. He was a provider, not a partner. Then at 40, he picked up the phone, apologized for judging how she raised him, and said the words out loud for the first time in decades. His mom went silent. Then she said it back. He hung up and called his three older sisters next. They had no idea what hit them. This is the moment that cracked him open and changed how he loves his wife, his family, everyone.
