Today the School of Greatness podcast is the top podcast on iTunes; it's downloaded by millions of listeners around the world and the host is internationally-acclaimed author, speaker, and business man Lewis Howes.

But the origins of the School of Greatness lie within Lewis' struggles as a young man with shattered dreams. In his early 20s Lewis was on top of the world as a world class professional athlete when a career ending injury changed everything.

After two years of sleeping on his sister's couch he decided to pick himself up and build a life of purpose. In this moving interview on Empower Lewis guides us through his story and shows how we too can build a meaningful life.
