About this listen

Helen Lewis is a journalist and author whose new book The Genius Myth dismantles how achievement really works. In this conversation, Amanda and Helen ask how the stories we tell about brilliance shape our culture and why our fixation on lone, exceptional individuals so often misleads us. They explore how luck, collaboration, and power create the illusion of “born geniuses,” and why understanding the real mechanics of success can make our own lives more grounded, resilient, and meaningful.
