About this episode

Gary John Bishop discusses his journey of realizing the importance of vulnerability in expressing love after decades of prioritizing work ethic.

Bestselling author Gary John Bishop joins Lewis Howes on The Daily Motivation Show to unpack the moment he realized he had shown love through work ethic instead of vulnerability for nearly three decades. Raised in Glasgow with a mindset of grinding it out over opening up, Bishop shares the exact phone call to his mother at age 40 that broke that pattern for good.
