  • Great guests, narrow lens

    I have a complicated relationship with The School of Greatness… I really enjoy many of the guests and often appreciate the questions Lewis Howes asks, but I increasingly find him difficult to listen to because he redirects nearly every subject through the lens of his own experience.

    Relating personally can make a conversation more accessible yes, but here it feels excessive. His experience doesn’t just add to the discussion, it repeatedly becomes the standard which he evaluates what the expert ... more

  • 6.5 FREAKIN Minutes of SELF PROMO before the cast even started. UNREAL

    Thanks for Turning me OFF so badly that I saved the rest of the hour and 45 minutes and left to write this review. And that will be the only time you’ll be getting from me from here on out, that’s how ridiculous that was. A waste.

  • Trite garbage for simple minds

    The first episode has a surgeon talking about a psychological issue, the problem is that he may be an expert at surgery, but he’s not at all a psychologist.

    I’d give this show 0 stars if I could, and even though the episode was free, I feel like I’m owed a refund. I will not be listening to anymore more episodes.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Rebuild Your Identity in 3 Steps and Finally Make Habits Last | Dr. Kim Foster
Q: Why is it important to focus on identity rather than just goals when it comes to motivation and habit formation?
Focusing on identity changes the underlying motivation; goals are mere outcomes, but who you are being in the process—your consistency, resilience, and response to adversity—determines whether you sustain habit changes long-term.
Rebuild Your Identity in 3 Steps and Finally Make Habits Last | Dr. Kim Foster
Q: What's the framework for creating a new identity, and how do you start using it in everyday life?
The framework is three-part: recognize, redesign, and ritualize. First, recognize the current identity and the stories we tell ourselves; then redesign by envisioning who we need to be for the next chapter; finally ritualize by taking small, proof-building actions to cement the new identity.
Burnout Is a Sign You're Doing the Wrong Work | Jonathan Fields
Q: Why do you think burnout is on the rise despite more flexible work options?
Burnout stems from misalignment between what people do daily and their fundamental impulses for meaningful work, amplified by blurred boundaries between work and home and a lack of systems that support sustainable living; the solution involves realignment, boundaries, and structural changes.
Bruce Lipton: The Program Running 95% of Your Life
Q: How can someone reprogram a deeply ingrained belief?
Use self-hypnosis or repetition to install a new program, then reinforce it with consistent practice until the subconscious accepts it as reality.
Bruce Lipton: The Program Running 95% of Your Life
Q: What is unique about theta and how does early life programming shape our behavior?
Theta is a hypnotic state during early development when the brain is highly receptive; this is when foundational programs about self-worth, belonging, and normal behavior are downloaded, shaping lifelong patterns.
