Introducing The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald from The School of Greatness. Follow the show: The School of Greatness Your brain is making choices for you before you even realize it. Neuroscientist Emily McDonald, known as Emonthebrain, studies how your identity, nervous system, and subconscious programming quietly run the show. Most people think they're choosing. Research shows the neural pattern of a decision lights up in a brain scan before you're consciously aware you've made it. That's the gap Emily spent years learning to close. She grew up with clinical depression, ADHD, anxiety, and a victim mindset baked in by illness and circumstance. She wasn't looking for a life philosophy. She switched her major to neuroscience because it sounded cool and got a 100 on her first exam. What she found changed everything. The science she uncovered is this: your brain holds a model of who you are in the default mode network. It uses that model to predict your thoughts, behaviors, and choices on autopilot. If the model says you're someone who struggles with money, or fails at relationships, or can't focus, your nervous system quietly steers you toward confirming that story. The identity is the destiny. Shifting it means more than positive thinking. It means identity anchors, environment, the people around you, the habits encoded in your body. Emily calls it identity shifting, and she coaches people through it by asking a deceptively simple question: do you have a to-do list or a to-be list? Most people have never sat down to ask who they're becoming, only what they're accomplishing. This conversation will rewire the way you think about why you keep falling back into old patterns, how affirmations can actually work against you, and what neuroscience actually says about the law of attraction. Emily's Website Emily's Instagram Mindcraft Coaching Program In this episode you will: Understand how the default mode network stores your identity and drives your choices below conscious awareness Learn the identity shifting process Emily uses with coaching clients to break subconscious patterns holding them back Discover why affirmations backfire and how to use forward motion and dopamine to make them actually work Explore the neuroscience behind the law of attraction and why you attract what your nervous system is wired for, not what you want Understand how ADHD medication, dopamine dependency, and addiction cycles form in the brain and what it takes to rewire them For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1935 For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960 Follow The Daily Motivation for essential highlights from The School of Greatness More SOG episodes we think you’ll love: Dr Joe Dispenza Dr. K Dr. Sue Morter TOPICS Emily McDonald, neuroscience, identity shifting, default mode network, neuroplasticity, law of attraction, subconscious reprogramming, ADHD, dopamine, limiting beliefs, nervous system alignment, victim mindset, Emonthebrain Get more from Lewis!

Everyone has a ghost story. Maybe it's the door that closed by itself, the cold spot in the corner of the room, or just that feeling you can't quite shake. In this episode, Kate sits down with her close friend and medium Jonathan Mark — who works with both grieving families and law enforcement on unsolved cases, to talk about some of the places that have stayed with her. From a college dormitory in central Pennsylvania with a notoriously haunted closet, to her mother's childhood home on the Main Line, to a house in Paoli where a four-year-old girl delivered a message no one could explain, to the West Chester home where she grew up. Jonathan looks at photos, shares his impressions, and opens up about what he believes is really happening when the living feel the presence of the dead.

Zach Heinzerling, the Emmy-winning, Oscar-nominated director behind Netflix's new four-part documentary series Rafa. The series follows Rafael Nadal across the final year of his career, from his 2024 return through his retirement, while reaching back across two decades to tell the fuller story of one of the most decorated and most physically punished athletes in the history of tennis. The series goes beyond the 22 Grand Slams and 14 French Open titles to reveal what it cost to win them: a rare, incurable foot condition called Müller-Weiss syndrome, diagnosed when Rafa was just nineteen; years of aggressive medical intervention that left him with perforated intestines; and a 2022 Roland Garros run played on a foot deadened by nerve-blocking injections. For the first time on camera, Rafa removes his sock and shows the foot itself — an image he had guarded from the public for twenty years. The series also explores the formative role of his uncle and longtime coach Toni Nadal, whose tough-love methods shaped Rafa from the age of three; the anxiety and ritual beneath the on-court persona; and the rivalries with Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic that defined a generation, including the now-famous Laver Cup farewell where Rafa and Federer sat side by side and wept. Featuring testimony from Federer, Djokovic, John McEnroe, and the family, coaches, and inner circle who have stood beside Nadal his entire career, Rafa is less a highlight reel than a portrait of a champion in negotiation with his own body — and an answer, or an attempt at one, to the question of why he kept playing long after that body told him to stop.

Melissa and Kate first met when their sons played flag football together as kids. In this sobering episode, Melissa shares the terrifying story of how her 14-year-old son was approached by an older man on a public dock in Newport Beach in the middle of the day. Claiming he was suicidal, the man drew the teenager into an increasingly personal conversation, asked for his phone number, and later attempted to contact him again through text messages. After investigating with the help of a local Nextdoor post and Megan’s Law records, Melissa discovered the man is a convicted violent sexual predator with a history involving kidnapping, lewd acts with a minor, and a stabbing that led to prison time. Melissa explains how she uncovered the truth, the emotional toll on her family, and why she wants other parents to understand how predators can manipulate young people through fear, sympathy, and emotional pressure—even in seemingly safe public places.

Shannon and Eric Evangelista, and retired FBI Special Agent Ken Maxwell, discuss the two-night docuseries about a man found naked and injured behind a rural Georgia Burger King in August 2004, a man who couldn't remember his own name, and called himself "Benjaman Kyle." What began as a mission to help Benjaman recover his identity became something far darker. Over more than a decade of reporting, filmmakers Shannon and Eric Evangelista watched the cracks in his story widen into a true crime labyrinth, three unsolved cold cases, a possible connection to a powerful Midwestern crime family, and escalating threats that ultimately put one of their own in danger.

In the summer of 2023, two Utah teenagers barricaded themselves in an upstairs bedroom and livestreamed the standoff on TikTok for fifty-four days. Ty and Brynlee Larson were refusing a family court order that would have placed them in a reunification program with their father, Brent Larson, whom they had accused of sexual and emotional abuse, allegations he has consistently denied and was never criminally charged for. Three years later, their case is the subject of a four-part Hulu and Disney+ docuseries. Kate spoke with the director Caitlin Keating to talk about how she reported the story, what the court record could and couldn't show, and why this particular custody case became a national flashpoint.

Jessica grew up believing she knew the story of her biological father, a high school boyfriend of her mother's who had struggled with addiction and left the picture before Jessica was born. Raised from infancy by the man who became her stepfather in every meaningful sense, Jessica nonetheless carried lifelong questions about her origins, and as an adult pursued a painful, ultimately disappointing relationship with the man she believed had given her half her DNA. Then, decades later, a routine consumer DNA test upended everything: the man she had spent years trying to know was not her biological father at all, and her real biological father was someone else entirely. In this episode, Jessica shares how that discovery forced her to reconsider her identity, her family's history, and the narratives she had been handed since childhood, and how she navigated the twists, the rejections, and the revelations with a remarkable amount of compassion and grace for everyone involved.

Patrick Harris, director of ESPN's The Pick Is In, joins the show to pull back the curtain on one of the most ambitious behind-the-scenes documentaries in sports television. Produced by NFL Films and Skydance Sports and premiered on ESPN on May 3, this year's edition embedded film crews inside the draft rooms of the Las Vegas Raiders, Cleveland Browns, and Dallas Cowboys across all seven rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft, capturing real-time trade negotiations, prospect debates, and franchise-shaping decisions as they happened.

Kevin Fallon is Editor-at-Large of Obsessed at The Daily Beast, host of Obsessed: The Podcast, and writer of the Obsessed substack. He joins the show for a deep dive into the pop culture corners worth obsessing over. We get into the enduring chaos of The Real Housewives, revisit the underrated charms of Ladies of London, and unpack why the new Michael Jackson biopic Michael is, in Kevin's words, a sanitized hagiography that never reckons with its subject. Kevin also pulls back the curtain on what it's really like working in media right now, and closes the conversation with three book recommendations you'll want to add to your stack.

Kate discusses Should I Marry a Murderer? on Netflix, the new three-part true crime docuseries about Dr. Caroline Muirhead, a Glasgow forensic pathologist whose whirlwind Tinder engagement to Scottish farmer Sandy McKellar took a horrifying turn when he confessed to a 2017 hit-and-run that killed cyclist Tony Parsons, whose body he and his twin brother had buried on the family estate. She also discusses the new four-part Netflix documentary Hulk Hogan: Real American, and the making of what became Terry Bollea's final extended interview. Hogan was the most famous professional wrestler of all time. The director Bryan Storkel sat with him for twenty-five hours of footage over five days in early 2025, just months before Hogan's death from cardiac arrest at age seventy-one.

Investigative journalist Bill Lobdell joins Kate to discuss the rise and controversy surrounding Paul and Jan Crouch, founders of Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). Paul, born in Missouri in 1934 to Pentecostal missionary parents, was an early radio enthusiast, while Jan, raised in Alabama in a strict religious household, brought a rebellious, charismatic energy to their partnership. After marrying in 1957 and moving to Los Angeles, they joined Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker to launch TBN in 1973 as a small, six-hours-a-night Christian station that would grow into the largest religious network in the world, reaching more than 175 countries. Through their flagship show Praise the Lord, Paul—“Poppa”—and Jan—“Momma,” known for her towering wigs, heavy makeup, and emotional on-air presence—became defining figures of televangelism, promoting the prosperity gospel: the belief that giving financially would bring material blessings from God. But behind the scenes, reporting and lawsuits alleged a far more complicated reality, including a strained marriage, separate lives, and accusations that donations funded an extravagant lifestyle—claims the network has denied. Lobdell’s Los Angeles Times investigation brought national attention to these tensions, raising enduring questions about faith, money, and influence.

Christine Marie, cult psychology expert, joins me to discuss Netflix’s Trust Me: The False Prophet. This four-part docuseries follows Christine and her husband, videographer Tolga Katas, as they embed themselves in the FLDS community in Short Creek, a town straddling the Utah-Arizona border long associated with fundamentalist Mormonism. What begins as an effort to support a fractured community in the wake of leader Warren Jeffs’ imprisonment turns into something far more dangerous. As they gain the trust of Samuel Bateman, a self-proclaimed prophet who rises to power after Jeffs, Christine and Tolga begin documenting his inner circle. Bateman, believing he is being filmed for a project that will amplify his message, allows unprecedented access. But behind the scenes, Christine and Tolga are gathering evidence of coercion, control, and the sexual abuse of women and underage girls. The series captures, in real time, the unraveling of Bateman’s authority. A 2022 traffic stop leads to his arrest, followed by a federal investigation and raid that exposes the full scope of his crimes. He was later sentenced to 50 years in prison.

David Sussillo is a neuroscientist, technologist, and author of Emergence: A Memoir of Boyhood, Computation, and the Mysteries of Mind. Kate first met David when they were classmates at the Milton Hershey School in Hershey, Pennsylvania. David has made a career at the cutting edge of neuroscience and technology, yet his path there was anything but a straight line. Born to drug-addicted parents in New Mexico, he navigated a childhood marked by violence and neglect. But a seed was planted at the unlikeliest of places—the local arcade. What follows is a remarkable journey of resilience and transformation, from the chaotic corridors of group homes to the halls of Columbia and Stanford. Along the way, Sussillo takes readers on an illuminating tour of the century-long dance between neuroscience, physics, and computation that has laid the groundwork for neural networks—the technology that drives modern artificial intelligence. As he advances in the field, working to demystify these networks, he also begins to pursue an answer to a more personal question: why, and how, did he succeed against all odds?

Cindy Eckert, entrepreneur, investor, and the central figure in the new Paramount+ documentary The Pink Pill: Sex, Drugs & Who Has Control. The documentary film examines the decade-long, uphill battle to get the first FDA-approved medication for female libido, Addyi, approved and brought to market. Directed by Aisling Chin-Yee, the film highlights the stark contrast between the fast-tracked approval of Viagra for men and the intense, often biased scrutiny faced by advocates of "female Viagra.” Eckert fought for 10 years to bring Addyi to market, facing regulatory roadblocks and public skepticism, ultimately revealing systemic gender bias in healthcare.

The low sexual desire is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after one to two drinks before taking ADDYI at bedtime and skip your dose if you drink three or more drinks that evening. If you take certain prescription, OTC or herbal medications, or have liver problems, the risk of low blood pressure and fainting increases and you should not take ADDYI. Do not take if you are allergic to any of ADDYI’s ingredients. Sometimes serious sleepiness can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.

Kate discusses the Netflix documentary Evil Influencer: The Jodi Hildebrandt Story, a chilling true-crime examination of Utah therapist Jodi Hildebrandt and her role in a devastating child abuse case involving popular parenting YouTuber Ruby Franke. Directed by Skye Borgman, the film explores how Hildebrandt, a licensed therapist and life coach, built power and credibility through her program ConneXions, ultimately manipulating Franke and others by weaponizing therapeutic language and moral authority. The documentary escalates as it reveals the “inhumane and merciless disciplinary regime” enforced under Hildebrandt’s influence, normalizing cruelty in the name of accountability and faith. The story reaches its horrifying conclusion in August 2023, when Franke’s emaciated 12-year-old son escaped through a window of Hildebrandt’s home and sought help from a neighbor, triggering the arrest of both women and exposing the dangers of unchecked influence, therapy culture misuse, and social media-driven credibility.

In 1961, George Carroll, a 30-year-old U.S. Army veteran and father of six, vanished without a trace from his family’s Long Island home on Olive Street, leaving behind a wife and young children, including his eight-month-old son Michael. For decades, the Carroll children were told their father had abandoned them, but unanswered questions lingered as the family endured years of silence, abuse, and buried secrets after their mother, Dorothy Carroll, remarried the family’s handyman, Richard Darress. Driven by a lifelong search for truth, Michael Carroll eventually bought the family home and, alongside his sister Jean, pursued answers through neighbors, rumors, and even psychics—until a chilling revelation led Michael’s sons, Mike Carroll Jr. and Chris Carroll, to dig beneath the basement floor in 2018. Six feet below the house, they uncovered human remains later confirmed to be George Carroll’s, transforming a decades-old disappearance into an active homicide investigation. Kate is joined by director Patricia Gillespie, and Mike Carroll Jr. and Chris Carroll.

Every December, the same two songs return — playing in stores, homes, airports, and holiday parties around the world. Do They Know It’s Christmas? and Last Christmas have become so deeply embedded in our global celebration of the season that it feels like they’ve always been there. But they haven’t. In this episode, Kate takes a deep dive into the remarkable back stories behind two of the most iconic Christmas songs ever recorded, both released within days of each other in December 1984 — and both created under dramatically different circumstances.

In this episode, Kate talks with Kim Huynh, whose family story spans continents, generations, and a lifetime of unanswered questions. Kim first caught Kate’s attention through an Instagram video where she revealed a stunning discovery: her father—born and raised in Vietnam—had finally found a biological relative through a genealogy site. The match confirmed what had long been whispered but never proven: his father was an American soldier in the Vietnam War, a man he never knew, and about whom his own mother gave no identifying information. Kim shares her father’s powerful origin story and the emotional impact of uncovering a history shaped by secrecy, war, and resilience. She also tells the story of how her parents met and married in Vietnam, and how, when she was four years old, they left their homeland to start again in Kentucky, building a life that blended Vietnamese heritage with Southern American culture.

Susan Powter joins Kate to discuss her new documentary Stop The Insanity: Finding Susan Powter on iTunes and Amazon. In the 90s, pop culture icon Susan Powter burst onto the scene with her signature bleach-blonde buzz cut and bold message of health and wellness. After conquering infomercials, becoming a New York Times bestselling author, hosting her own talk show, and seeing her face on thousands of products, she dramatically walked away from Hollywood. Crippling lawsuits with her business partners left her bankrupt, and for the past twenty years, she has lived as a total recluse, below the poverty line in Las Vegas. This documentary explores the meteoric rise and subsequent fall of Susan Powter, while asking what it will take to bring Susan back to audiences and whether her message, "Stop The Insanity, " is still as relevant and powerful today as it was in the early 90's.

Nancy Salzman, former president and co-founder of Executive Success Programs (ESP), returns for the second part of her first-ever post-prison interview. After co-founding ESP with Keith Raniere in 1998, the company grew into the larger umbrella organization NXIVM—originally promoted as an elite personal development and leadership training community. In this second part of her conversation with Kate, Nancy speaks openly about the unraveling of NXIVM, the legal fallout that followed, and the personal reckoning she faced as she prepared to plead guilty. She discusses the complex blend of loyalty, denial, and awakening that preceded her arrest; her experience inside federal prison; and the emotional and psychological work required to confront her own responsibility.

Nancy Salzman, former president of Executive Success Programs (ESP)—a company offering personal and professional development programs designed to help people discover, develop, and utilize more of their untapped potential—joins Kate for the first of a two-part conversation. In 1998, she and Keith Raniere co-founded ESP, which Raniere later expanded into the broader umbrella organization NXIVM. He presented NXIVM as an elite self-improvement and leadership training company, but it ultimately became a vehicle for manipulation, coercive control, and the secretive subgroup DOS that led to his federal conviction. Nancy was sentenced in 2021 to 42 months in federal prison for racketeering-related charges connected to her role in the organization. In this first part, she discusses how she met Raniere, the creation and rapid growth of ESP, and what was really happening behind the scenes as the organization evolved.
