Empower with Clayton Morris | Crush limiting beliefs. Create financial freedom. Cultivate productive habits

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.

Have you ever considered it’s not the things in your life that cause you stress, resentment and fear, but your thoughts and beliefs?

According to our guest for today’s episode, world-renowned author Byron Katie, there is only one thing that creates stress or other negative emotions in our lives: our thoughts and beliefs about what is happening in the moment.

On today’s episode of the Empower podcast Byron chats about her seminal book Loving What Is, the four questions that book is formulated on (also called The Work) and her personal discovery of this practice.

Dr. Hanson returns to the show for another conversation with Clayton!

Can we train ourselves to be happier, to find the good in our everyday lives? Or are we stuck with what we've been given? The answer, happily, is the former and here to share his wisdom on how we can become hardwired for happiness is Dr. Rick Hanson.

Rick, as he likes to be called, has made a life out of studying happiness, psychology and the human mind, and incorporating habits to build happiness into our lives. He's the author of several books, including Hardwiring Happiness.

Today we dive into what hardwiring happiness actually means, how we can do it for ourselves and why being happy actually makes a difference in not only our lives but the lives of those around us. Make sure your notebook is handy for episode 18 of the Empower podcast!
