The Fear of Success

As a senior in college and an All-American athlete, Lewis Howes had it all, until he received some life-changing news. The night before a big football game, Lewis’s father got into a car accident that left him in a traumatic coma. When his Dad could no longer guide him, Lewis started seeking new mentors. He began reaching out to highly-accomplished people asking them about the stories of their success. The people he met gave him a new direction, new inspiration, and new hope. In this episode, Lewis will talk about his book The Greatness Mindset and what he's learned from hundreds of conversations with some of the most inspiring and successful individuals on the planet.
