What if the world labeled you “the dumb twin”… but you chose to believe in greatness instead?
In this rereleased episode of The Richard Brooke Podcast, Richard Bliss Brooke sits down with one of the greatest motivational speakers of our time, Les Brown.
Les’s story is the kind that grabs your heart and never lets go. Labeled “intellectually disabled” in grade school, he could have let those words define his destiny. Instead, he rewrote it.

In this conversation, you’ll hear how he turned pain into purpose and how the right message, at the right time, can spark a lifetime of transformation.
