The Rich Roll Podcast

Dr. Elizabeth Poynor is a gynecologic oncologist, Chair of Women's Health at Atria Health Institute, and host of the podcast “Decoding Women's Health.”

This conversation explores why women's health has been siloed for centuries, modern hormone therapy, the estrogen-brain connection, metabolic shifts, GLP-1s, and what partners need to understand about this transition.

Underneath it all: generations of women have known what the medical literature is only now catching up to.

Elizabeth is a vital voice. I hope this discussion reaches those who need it. Enjoy!

Brad Stulberg is a bestselling author, executive coach, and one of my favorite thinkers on sustainable high performance.

This conversation explores the dualities in personal development, discipline and self-compassion, striving and surrender, intensity and joy. We discuss the "humble badass" archetype, building resilient identities, why curiosity is the skeleton key, and excellence as an antidote to alienation.

Along the way, Brad gets vulnerable about the childhood wounds that still drive his ambition—and I share my own.

Amidst the chaos of self-help, Brad remains a principled voice of reason. Enjoy!

Dr. Maya Shankar is a cognitive scientist, host of the podcast “A Slight Change of Plans,” and author of “The Other Side of Change.”

This conversation explores the challenge of navigating involuntary change, whether it's injury, loss, or a future that suddenly collapses. We discuss identity and attachment, the illusion of control, why our brains resist uncertainty, the end of history illusion, rumination, and practical tools to help us see change not as a burden—but as a revelation.

Maya also opens up about her own identity crises, a career-ending injury at 15, and later pregnancy losses that forced her to confront who she was beyond her deepest aspirations.

Change is coming for all of us, whether we like it or not. Maya's goal is to give you the companion you need along the way. Enjoy!

Dr. Will Bulsiewicz is a gastroenterologist, one of the world's foremost authorities on the gut microbiome, and author of “Plant Powered Plus.”

This conversation explores the gut-immune connection as the root determinant of chronic inflammation—the silent driver behind three out of five deaths. We discuss the four nutritional workhorses, why your microbiome is nocturnal, and what happens when you eat after dark.

Dr. B also opens up about a decade-long estrangement from his father—an unexpected reminder that healing isn't always biological. Sometimes it's emotional.

This is our third exchange together. Our best yet. Enjoy!

Mark Manson is the author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck and host of the Solved podcast.

Back for his third appearance (eps. 476, 882), we skip the backstory and pull questions from a fishbowl. We discuss vanity goals versus values-aligned goals, why procrastination is really about emotional avoidance, the trap of people-pleasing, how to distinguish intuition from impulse, and the delusion of passive manifestation.

I also share my own shifting perspectives on positive thinking and the dissolution of self.

Mark is the anti-guru. And this conversation is your New Year intervention. Enjoy!
