Sara was selected as one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the world and has been featured on the cover of countless magazines. In support of her mission to empower women, Sara created The Spanx by Sara Blakely Foundation. She committed to donating half of her wealth to charity.

Jesse then partnered with Zico coconut water, which he and his partner sold to The Coca-Cola Company. When he’s not running ultra-marathons, eating vegan food, or being a dad to his four kids, Jesse can be found at the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks games, where he’s an owner of the team.

What's the #1 thing you pulled from the interview? Let me know!
Lewis Howes Have success in every area of life not just financially.
That it was never about the money, it was about the passion and drive to have wholesome balanced success 😊
Well, I liked seeing that they have some correct priorities on what's important in life eg love, family, communication, connection. That's wisdom right there.
"Wisdom and money can get you almost anything,
but only wisdom can save your life."
- Ecclesiastes 7:12 -
I also LOVE how she's not even really thinking about the Benjamins (which, I know, some will say that's easy enough to do when you've done as well as they have, but some people have tens or hundreds of millions, but they have that 'more' disease) but is totally focused on her kids.
They seem such happy and nice people.
PASSION
What a great episode!! The fact that you knew them really added to the interview.
Some takeaways:
1) Having similar values is the building blocks of their successful marriage (e.g. they have differences in what they think their kids should/shouldn't eat specifically, but they have the common goal of wanting their kids to eat healthy and were able to build from that foundation.)
2) An important entrepreneurial skill to build/hone at this time is selling, including how to sell yourself! (Sara Blakely gives great advice at 30:39). Sara herself started out as a fax machine seller and learned many important lessons that she then applied to her now billion-dolla company, Spanx.
3) As a women, it is powerful seeing that Sara Blakely was able to create a successful business and find a partner who supports, respects, and even looks up to her (as he mentions in the interview). She has also managed to raise a family (4 kids) all while sticking to values that are really important to her - kindness, giving, humility, gratitude, valuing relationships, and so on.
Thank you Lewis for a wonderful episode!
YESSS *Sara Blakely* is my entrepreneur *boss lady spirit animal* 💃🙌😍
Glad to hear that
The more I hear from them, The more hope I have for this world, we need more people like them! So honest, unpretentious, lovely humans. Thank you for this interview Lewis.
The best representatives of billionaires I’ve seen yet.
What a wonderful couple and great advice right to the end.
Some of the advice was noticed without a word needing to be said.
Thank you
What surprised me the most is that they are cooking, cleaning the house and raising the kids by themselves, despite being billionaires and easily can hire a private butler or cook. And the room in background looks so..... normal? Like a stereotype middle-class home
Love the part where he mentions to her that he needed 2 hours alone. This is something that's been super helpful for me and my spouse as well. I used to get aggravated when I'd be working in my office and get interrupted. But once I started communicating that it was important for me to have uninterrupted work time while working at home, its done wonders!
That last sentence sums her up perfectly, putting the shine back on Lewis and acknowledging him after he said nice things about her, not just taking the praise. Awesome couple!
Alex Cullen she's so great!
‘The person next to you is your super hero.’ Thank you for that Jesse and Sara. 🦸🏻♂️ 🦸🏻♀️ 🥰
Sara has always been my role model!!! 😭😭😭
I think Jesse is very brave, he is willing to break the 'identity', constantly evolving himself in different industry. I can truly relate to him.
My favourite couple. One thing I learnt from Jessee that he didn't mention today is that " You are never too tired for your kids" My parenting mantra! You both inspire me too much
Sara is a doll! They are so cute together. Thank you for another great podcast, Lewis! Big hugs 🤗 .
Jesse Itzler is one of my favorites! Thank you for this, Lewis!
I’m so happy I took the time to listen to this interview. Amazing couple! Lots of lessons. Many of their principles I share with my husband as well. The number one lesson from Sarah for me was “ Hire your weaknesses’. This was an Aha moment as I always try to battle my weaknesses and end up not having the time or energy to build up my strengths. Thank you so much Lewis for making these interviews and sharing them with us. 🙏
I LOVE Sara talking about learning the skill of a positive mindset. I am so grateful that I have listened to you and people like you for the past 4+ years that I can rely on a strong, positive mindset and now focus on learning other new skills. Mindset is the start!!
LEWIS, this interview is such a gift, a bright light, a source of hope and inspiration! I think it might be my favourite episode of SoG, which is saying a lot because your show is fantastic! Thank you!
Such a humble couple
So many amazing things to take away from them! It’s so true what Jesse said . It’s amazing when a partner really cares about you and shows it. It makes you want to mirror the same energy. ❤️
I agree! Thanks for sharing and for watching! ❤️
A long and happy relationship needs commitment, effort and compromises. Examples they gave were planing date nights and trips with your partner as well as prioritizing and scheduling them. Having common values. Supporting your partner and honestly being appreciative and proud of her or him. Such an inspiring couple and what a great interview Lewis. Thank you.
It's such a pity that I didn't watch this video earlier! They are two of the best people in this world for sure. No pretention yet incredible eloquence, wild success with equilibrium, intelligent and kind, lovers and partners, funny and serious.. Also, THE BEST CHEMISTRY! I've been admiring Sara Blakely as my role model for a long time, but never really got to know her family/personal life. But now I know why she's such a successful entrepreneur. It's because she's just as attentive in every other area of her life as a wife, friend, daugther, mom, supporter, etc. No wonder her monetary success comes in to her life as a by-product. And an incredible husband as well, who can make a relationship with the world's biggest entrepreneur work really well. It takes a lot in a guy to be genuinely happy for the big success of his other half, without feeling threatened, and it shows he really truly cares for Sara, and also the level of self-esteem and security he has :) I really want to have a relationship like this. Like they said, it doesn't just come, it takes a lot of work, care, compromise, consistency, values etc, but i really want to find a person who makes the process all worth it, like these two. 💛❤
We got 2 for the price of 1 here. Thanks from the bottom of my heart Sarah, Jesse and Lewis

I love listening to Sarah and you can feel that she comes from a genuine place. She has a big heart! Very inspiring
🧡
OMG these two are so cute. Personalities like my husband and I - cracks me up, go go go and then me focus and grateful! So nice to see 2 connected successful people being rewarded in life and paying it forward. Loved Sara's journey, what a rockstar and such an inspiration.
Lewis, I am having so much fun watching this show. Plus, it's educational. I laugh and learn so much from them. You are able to build rapport with these two. Jesse is a champ and adores his wife.
Thank you Lewis 🙏🏽. I love Sara. Her story inspires me every day. I won’t give up on my dream. I know it is possible because of Sara’s success story. What a powerful couple!
So many gems here this is definitely going on my rewatch list.If I had to choose one lesson from this it will be to work on improving my selling skills including selling myself and practice articulating it.
What an inspirational woman 🙏🏽
If you want to be happier, healthier and have more energy in life. Take action and define what motivates you to change and look at them every day. This is the reason I started my UA-cam channel. 💪✨
I am starting from the ground up, many things were bad since i was a kid.
I started with:
I love Mango, frenchfries and pizza
I love speakers and bass
I like sea and forest
I like birds and air
I started taking those things for myself, nobody can stand between me and those things.
cheers anyone
Beautiful!!!!! So real.... Coming from an individual that has 5 children, married for over 30 years and in a loving, passionate relationship with multiple businesses and with no business school either. Can relate in multiple levels. Husband is vegan too. lol
I am a 20 year old man. What relationship advice will you give me
Positive Mindset is a skill. ‘Listen to things that give you a Positive Frame 🖼 of Mind’
Yes, you have to look up to your partner and have a level or respect and admiration that is pure love.
Thank you so much sir for the great learning from all across the world
Thanks, Lewis. This was one of the best podcast interviews I've seen in a long time.
Her husband is a real man, he has really figured out how to be her supernan. I truly hope jesse creates an entire program on how to lead (pied piper) other men into ""the light":...lol
*The best answer I know is -> self awareness*
Do u know what YOU want? 🙏
Amazing! :)
This is Awesome! I Love That so Much Positive Energy Around!
This is gold. Learnt so much from this interview. Thank you Sara and Jesse for sharing your wisdom!
Means a lot!!! Glad this was helpful for you🧡
I am 30mins into this interview and am loving every minute of it … the advice comes off more as a kind suggestion and doesn’t have that pressure that I mostly get when am watching motivational videos … your kindness towards each other and in general really comes off so easily … thanks
Thanks for being here!
Absolutely LOVE these two!!!
Proper Mindset is the 🔑
Thank you for this Lewis!! They are both so inspiring ❤️
Wonderful couple and great inspiration!
Create Your Life by Ivana Skoko I agree!
A bunch of respect to you guys.
Great interview with amazing people! How do you prepare your kids for life? How do you inspire them? What books/games do you suggest?
I can’t like this video enough! Thank you so much Lewis for this!
So happy to hear it! ❤️
Great talk. As always!
Have a lot of simphaty and respect for both!
Thank you. I love this episode. So inspiring!
I love this so much and I appreciate that Sara started SPANX with only $5000 because I’m trying to start my business in the middle of this pandemic in quarantine with about the same amount so I feel encouraged that if she can turn that into $1 billion company then I can do the same for mine 🙏🏻
I’m going to speak it into existence from today forward that Ndure Nnovations will be massively successful and help kids and families worldwide
Well done interview by the way !
So much joy ! I am amazed by all of you 🙏 Cheers
I loved Sarah at growth con with grant Cardone

Such a good interview
Thank you so much! 🧡
Get it guyzzzz!
Great interview! What an amazing couple 🙏🤙
I agree Chris! 😄
this was great~
🧡
I pulled inspiration, Mr. Howes. Thanks! How's about you interview a 46 yr old plumbing service guy turned rapper? I just need a bit more time for reality to ride👍
Sara drinking her wine 🍷 ✨💖✨
yo this guy felt the pressure when he was answering that first question hahahaha
38:36 oooof that is rough! My partner and I would not be able to be together in a healthy relationship if I ate meat. He was so passionate about veganism and animal abuse that it rubbed off on me and now we’re both vegan. The only thing I do is eat honey when I’m sick. Or honey in my drink on rare occasions. But aside from that I can’t imagine eating meat anymore. Even if we broke up. It’s probably the biggest gift he’s give me, open my eyes to something I’ve done without thinking.
Lewis and I have one thing in common.we learn as we teach
What a great couple! I loved the personal questions you asked them, Lewis, like what they appreciate about each other and when they first knew the other was the One. So sweet and inspiring.Thanks for a great interview.
Love
How amazing they are 💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎beautiful!!!
My wife and I agreed that after three years we would move but her parents rely on her too much that she feels guilty moving so now she doesn’t want to, what do I do then?
Sara is so inspiring 👌 😝 😍 Fit Moma😝😍 Cutest family 👪 Jesse admire & Respect her so much 😍 Wonder woman lol Yep Be with Someone who feel Happy in ur happiness 😝 😍
In most marriages it always seems like one person dominates the other. Not always in a bad way, it's just very clear that one person sets the tone for both and takes the lead, and let's be fair ....it's usually the woman. There are these phrases people always say like "Happy wife, happy life" , or " She's the boss".....It's interesting with these two, neither one seems to want to dominate or surpress the other and both seem very happy.
Great video, awesome couple! Affiliated with Bill Gates & Warren Buffett, Lewis wearing the red string band ... interesting ...
A real man knows quickly if she is the one.
Hahaha! Sara was tearing Jesse apart. 😂
The sweltering rocket correspondingly prefer because tomato topically bare till a dazzling elbow. hoc, absorbed save
I’m so happy I took the time to listen to this interview. Amazing couple! Lots of lessons. Many of their principles I share with my husband as well. The number one lesson from Sarah for me was “ Hire your weaknesses’. This was an Aha moment as I always try to battle my weaknesses and end up not having the time or energy to build up my strengths. Thank you so much Lewis for making these interviews and sharing them with us. 🙏
