Hello and welcome back to the show.

Thank you so much for joining us.

I am Patrick.

I am here, of course, with Ben.

And we are joined by a new friend of ours, Brian Johnson.

Gentlemen, how are you?

Doing great, Patrick.

And Brian, awesome to have you here, man. Pleasure to be here. Appreciate you both. Brian, we've mentioned you on the show a few times before. So folks might be familiar with you, but you are the founder of Heroic. You're the author of a book called Arete, Activate Your Heroic Potential. You spent the last 20-plus years distilling ancient wisdom and modern science into practical tools that can help people show up as the best versions of themselves.

And for folks who want to learn more, head to heroic.us.

I would love, Brian, just like a very quick introduction as to who you are and what you focus on.

And then I'm really excited to have this conversation today.
