Listen to the intro

Who it is for

For any man who has ever felt trapped between who he really is and who the world expects him to be, and for anyone who wants to understand the emotional cost of traditional masculinity.

About the Author

A former professional football player and two-sport All-American, Lewis Howes turned to writing after a career-ending injury left him “out of work and living on his sister’s couch.” Ever since, he has made a name as one of the more popular lifestyle entrepreneurs and high-performance business coaches around. A popular podcast host – featured on Ellen, Good Morning America and The Today Show – Howes was named, several years ago, as one of the Top 100 American entrepreneurs under 30 by Barack Obama.
