How To Stop Self-Sabotage & Start Healing Your Body And Mind

With Lewis Howes

Download MP3

The stories we tell ourselves about our lives ultimately inform what actually transpires. It’s easy to place the blame for what’s not going right in our lives on other people, our relationships, or the things that are out of our control. But what if instead we acknowledged the part we played in our own lives and took responsibility for creating our own happiness? 

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru sits down with Lewis Howes, a New York Times bestselling author, keynote speaker, and host of the industry-leading podcast The School of Greatness. Dhru and Lewis discuss why letting go of old narratives and healing from your past is critical for pursuing your goals and living to your fullest potential. 

Lewis and Dhru also share their personal stories and how overcoming their fears and letting go of self-doubt helped them better invest in their careers, their relationships, and themselves. Lewis leaves an empowering message for anyone who’s looking to break free from negative self-talk and gives actionable steps for how to move forward on their healing journey. 

Lewis Howes is a two-sport All-American athlete, former professional football player, and member of the US men’s national handball team. His show The School of Greatness is one of the top podcasts in the world, with over 500 million downloads. The White House and President Obama recognized him as one of the top 100 entrepreneurs in the country under 30. His new book, The Greatness Mindset: Unlock the Power of Your Mind and Live Your Best Life Today, hits bookstores everywhere on March 7.
