Why Women Lose Desire Faster in Marriage | Esther Perel

Esther Perel reveals why modern relationships demand more from us than any generation in history, and why that's actually a gift. Growing up as the child of Holocaust survivors taught her that nothing is permanent, and that dread shaped her life's work around helping people create meaningful connections. She explains why women get bored with monogamy faster than men, why desire dies when you stop taking risks, and why the very things that attract you to someone become the source of your biggest conflicts later. You'll walk away understanding that great relationships aren't about finding the perfect person, they're about choosing someone and deciding to show up differently every day.

How to Rewire Your Mind and Heal Stress from the Inside Out with Dr. Ellen Langer

Dr. Ellen Langer has spent 45 years proving something most doctors still resist: your thoughts don't just influence your health, they are your health. In her groundbreaking counterclockwise study, elderly men lived as their younger selves for one week with zero medical intervention and emerged with improved vision, hearing, strength, and even looked noticeably younger. She's discovered that chambermaids lost weight simply by viewing their work as exercise, that wounds heal based on perceived time rather than actual time, and that stress is the single greatest source of illness, surpassing even diet and genetics. You'll walk away understanding that chronic disease isn't a life sentence but a signal that medicine hasn't caught up yet, and that your body responds to every thought whether you're aware of it or not. Dr. Langer’s books: * Mindfulness [https://amzn.to/4hM10V9] * The Power of Mindful Learning [https://amzn.to/4qGJ4yX] * On Becoming an Artist [https://amzn.to/49xNCBF] * Counterclockwise [https://amzn.to/4qzLPSK] * The Mindful Body [https://amzn.to/4nG7OoC] In this episode you will: * Discover why stress causes more disease than diet, genetics, or even medical treatment and how mindlessness keeps you trapped in patterns that make you sick * Transform how you experience pain and illness by asking one simple question twice daily that initiates your body's natural healing response * Break free from the myth that aging means falling apart by understanding that sickness and aging are completely separate processes * Uncover why trying to make the right decision destroys your peace and what to do instead that eliminates stress entirely * Master the power of uncertainty to unlock possibilities that rigid thinking and false certainty have kept hidden from you For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1850 [https://lewishowes.com/1850] For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 More SOG episodes we think you’ll love: Rhonda Byrne – greatness.lnk.to/1848SC [http://greatness.lnk.to/1848SC] Bob Proctor  – greatness.lnk.to/1837SC [http://greatness.lnk.to/1837SC] Price Pritchett – greatness.lnk.to/1821SC [http://greatness.lnk.to/1821SC] Get more from Lewis!  Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

The Real Reason You Can't Stop Your Addiction | Dr. Gabor Maté

Dr. Gabor Maté reveals a truth most people never hear: the abuse itself isn't always your deepest wound. He challenges everything you've been told about healing, explaining how the real trauma often comes from the people who should have protected you but couldn't. Through deeply personal stories including Lewis's own journey with sexual abuse, Gabor shows why shame keeps us trapped and how our nervous system's freeze response was actually protecting us all along. This isn't about blame or staying stuck in victimhood. You'll walk away understanding that healing means reconnecting with the parts of yourself you've been taught to hide, and that the suffering you've endured can actually become your greatest teacher.

You'll hear how Rick lost 135 pounds by surrendering control, why he believes wrestling is the most honest sport, and what changed when he realized greatness isn't about worldly success but about making a gift to God.
