Leading Nowhere: Jordan Harbinger on Self-Help Hell

This episode is sponsored by Better Help. Today’s guest, Jordan Harbinger, went from Wall Street lawyer to interview talk-show host. Turns out he’s been pretty damn good at both careers, with some even calling him “The Larry Kind of Podcasting.” On The Jordan Harbinger Show, he’s now spent 14 years deconstructing the most successful people in the world and asking them how they got to where they are. Inevitably (to us) but unexpectedly (to Jordan), one thing that’s come up a lot on the show? Cults, especially self-help cults, and the absolute ubiquity of coercive control across the United States. In fact, he even experienced some seminars that were A Little Bit Culty himself.  You can check out Jordan’s 6-minute networking course here.  Follow Jordan on:  Instagram YouTube Twitter Facebook LinkedIn Please note, this series includes details of sexual abuse.
