Robert Greene is a globally renowned author and thinker best known for his groundbreaking books on power, strategy, and human behavior, including the international bestsellers The 48 Laws of Power, The Art of Seduction, The 33 Strategies of War, and Mastery. But before becoming a literary icon, Robert struggled through decades of uncertainty—working over 50 different jobs, battling self-doubt, and feeling lost in his 30s. It wasn’t until age 37, after years of rejection and frustration, that his life changed with the release of The 48 Laws of Power, a book that would go on to sell millions of copies and influence everyone from CEOs to world leaders and hip-hop legends. In this episode, Robert opens up about the real pain behind his rise, the dangerous truths about power, and the deeply human experiences that shaped his work.Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro and Robert's Get Rich or Die Trying Moment 06:25 – 50 Jobs, Self-Doubt, and a Dream to Write 13:37 – Suicidal Thoughts and The Emotional Cost of Unfulfilled Potential 25:11 – How to Become Powerful and Master Relationships 35:54 – Why You Shouldn’t Follow All 48 Laws—and Who Actually Did 48:49 – Surreal Moments, Paparazzi, and the Prime Minister of ItalyResources: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/robertgreeneofficial/'>Robert's Instagram</a> <a href='https://powerseductionandwar.com/'>Robert's Website</a> <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGuyX4aB3Bw'>Sneak Peak of Robert's New Book, The Law of the Sublime</a> Want to Connect?
