"If [the current pandemic] was JUST happening to you...you're the only person in the world who [it's] happening to...what would it be trying to tell you?"

Philip McKernan, a pioneer in the space of helping people live lives of clarity and empowerment, urges us to step back and become aware of what changes we need to make to align with our deepest purpose.

Philip works with entrepreneurs and business leaders around the world, and brings a huge dose of perspective and originality to each and every encounter.  Ben and Philip's conversation is truly inspiring, unflinchingly honest, and offers wisdom that every single human being can apply in some capacity to their life right this moment.

Philip and Ben cover:

• The importance of taking ownership for your life.
• What to look for and recognize of a victim mentality.  (And the actions to empower yourself to be free of it!)
• How powerful it can be to share your personal narrative, and how much it can help other people.
• When there's a difference between talents and gifts.
• Steps to take to change the job, relationship, or life that you don't love.
• Plus... a way to approach the most important conversation that you want to have, but are afraid of.

If I have to convince you to prioritize your health, Muscle Intelligence coaching isn’t for you…. If I have to convince you that the best investment you can make is in yourself…. That being fit is not a temporary decision, but a commitment…. That it’s not about MORE or what you do, it’s about BETTER and how you do it...  Or that your physical health impacts all areas of your life, keep scrolling.

I’m not in the business of convincing anyone.  I’m in the business of transformation.

The individuals who come to us are already high-performers.  They’re committed. Ready.

Don’t get me wrong - These guys come with challenges too. They typically have limited time to train, injuries, no gym access, busy families, no customized plans, no specific training knowledge, no coach and an inner fear that it’s going to be too hard.

But here’s the tough love you need to hear:  The only difference between these guys and YOU… is that they took action. They stepped in the ring anyway.

I’m looking for a few more men who want to transform in 2022. If you’re serious and you’re committed, I’d love to see if you’re a right fit for a program I’m starting in 2022.  Apply now at https://go.muscleintelligence.com/coaching-application/
