This is simply to make people better and to make them recognize that they don't have to get stuck where they are, but they can change, because every day is an opportunity of change.

It's a big one today because my guest is Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I still love you, Mr. Baby.

This conversation, which Arnold graciously hosted in his office slash museum of spectacular artifacts collected over the course of his story life,

covers the principles he leveraged to stratospheric success in three distinct careers, bodybuilding, movie startup and politics, all of which are eloquently distilled in his new book The Useful.

Arnold also shares his thoughts on confidence, ego and ambition.

We need to get stronger. We need to get tougher. We have to be willing to go through hardship, through suffering, through pain.

We talk about his commitment to the environment, his relationship with James Cameron, and also this very interesting fourth act that he now finds himself in, which is all about service, giving back, being a voice of positivity.

And leveraging his influence for the betterment of others. This one was quite the thrill, so please enjoy Arnold as perhaps you have never before seen or heard him.

We're brought to you today by AG1, my ultra comprehensive, super supportive, one and done drinkable habit. With so many life stressors, it's difficult to maintain effective nutritional habits, busy schedules, poor sleep, exercise, the environment, stress, or simply not eating enough of the right foods can leave even the best of us deficient in key areas.

Not to mention, figuring out responsible supplementation can kind of be a super confusing thing, which are all reasons why I love AG1, a comprehensive and simple solution to the complications of nutrition.

AG1's science-driven formulation of vitamins, probiotics, and whole food source nutrients covers all your nutritional bases. Just one scoop in water, or you could put it in your morning smoothie, that's what I like to do, gives me the foundational nutrition I need. 75 high quality vitamins, probiotics, and whole food source ingredients all formulated to support energy, focus, strength, clarity, and more.

Today's episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Nobody cruises through life without stuff, obstacles, stress, anxiety, depression, conflict, relationships, family, career, or how about just life on life's terms? If I've learned one thing, it's this. You cannot bottle it up. You can't compartmentalize it, push it down, ignore it.

That never works, and it generally just makes everything worse. You gotta let it out. You gotta talk about it, and a great way to expose your stuff to the light is therapy. It's something I've been doing for 25 years, and I continue to do so.

It's been crucial in helping me see what I can't alone see, and it's provided me with all these tools to manage my emotions in much healthier ways.

All of which translates over time into being happier, more productive, and just more authentically me, which is honestly priceless.

So if you're thinking of starting therapy, give BetterHelp a try. It's entirely online, and it's designed to be convenient, flexible, and suited to your schedule.

Just fill out a brief questionnaire to get matched with a licensed therapist, and you can switch therapists any time for no additional charge.
