In this deeply reflective episode on the Muscle Intelligence Podcast, Ben Pakulski sits down with Paul Attia, a performance advisor to elite families, to explore what real success looks like beyond money and accolades. Paul shares frameworks for self-mastery, managing intensity, and leading your family with wisdom and purpose. Together they unpack the dangers of external validation, the art of presence, and why the biggest tax you’ll ever pay is the “tax of a broken family.” If you’re a high performer ready to align drive with depth—this is your roadmap.

 

5 Key Points:

• The “Identify → Manage → Optimize” framework for self-mastery
• Turning agitation into clarity and calm
• How to channel drive without burnout
• Raising “philosophers, farmers, and fighters”
• Why legacy matters more than success
