No Free Dopamine: Unlock Your Best Life & Build Your Perfect Day Without Alcohol | Eric Hinman - Creator, Athlete, & Entrepreneur

Eric Hinman is a renowned athlete (CrossFit/5x Ironman), serial entrepreneur, brand builder, and wellness content creator at the top of his game. He wasn't always this way; Eric made a dramatic transformation in his late twenties from a life of partying and "chasing the public perception of success" to ruthlessly pursuing wellness, deep friendships, and "living life on his own terms."

In this conversation, host Jesse Carrajat and Eric discuss the importance of replacing bad habits with good ones, the consequences of "cheap" dopamine hits from drugs & alcohol, how surrounding oneself with like-minded individuals is critical for wellness, how to minimize distractions to achieve flow-state, the importance of consistency vs. specificity in fitness training, and his personal recipe to create, and live, the "Perfect Day" EVERY day.
