The School of Greatness

Why 63% of Young Men Have Stopped Trying | Scott Galloway

24 Nov 2025

Description

Scott Galloway doesn't hold back about the crisis facing young men today. Four times more likely to die by suicide, three times more likely to be addicted or homeless, 12 times more likely to be incarcerated. While women's ascent has been remarkable and necessary, society stopped asking what happens when an entire generation of men loses access to the traditional pathways that once helped them become providers, protectors, and partners. Scott challenges the comfortable narrative that young men just need to figure it out on their own. He shares raw truth about what actually motivates men to level up, from his own shame at not being able to afford a nurse for his dying mother to watching his students struggle to find any venue to demonstrate excellence beyond a dating app profile. This conversation will shift how you think about manhood, relationships, and what we owe the next generation.Scott’s books:The FourThe Algebra of HappinessPost CoronaAdriftThe Algebra of WealthNotes on Being a ManIn this episode you will:Discover why men benefit four to seven years more from romantic relationships than women do and what this means for building a thriving societyUnderstand the concept of surplus value and how becoming a man means generating more than you absorb economically, emotionally, and relationallyBreak through the myth that professional success alone creates fulfilling relationships and learn the three qualities women actually seek in partnersTransform your approach to relationships by putting away the scorecard and deciding what kind of person you want to be regardless of what others give backMaster the hidden crisis facing young men as big tech monetizes loneliness and sequesters an entire generation from real-world connections and skillsFor more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1854For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you’ll love:Gabor Maté – greatness.lnk.to/1849SCLewis Howes [SOLO]  – greatness.lnk.to/1819SCJerry Wise – greatness.lnk.to/1747SC Get more from Lewis! Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Get The Greatness Mindset audiobook on SpotifyText Lewis AIYouTubeInstagramWebsiteTiktokFacebookX Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
