About Extraordinary Minds:

Vishen Lakhiani is a global entrepreneur, author, and speaker. He's the founder of Mindvalley – an education company – and the author of 3 bestselling books: The Code of the Extraordinary Mind, The Buddha and the Badass, and The 6 Phase Meditation.

He created Extraordinary Minds to sit down with the thought leaders, scientists, athletes, founders, and teachers who have mastered two things: mental fitness, and authority, with the hope that their lessons give you the body of an athlete, the mind of a stoic, and the heart of a warrior.

Extraordinary Minds means both things at once: the minds he learns from, and the one you're building. This is where you come to train your mind the way an athlete trains a body, and to build your authority.
