Building an Anti-Fragile Life with Eric Partaker

Welcome to Episode 108 of the Built on Purpose Podcast, brought to you by Y Scouts.  

 

In this episode of the Built On Purpose Podcast, we sit down with Eric Partaker, peak performance coach, entrepreneur, and author of The 3 Alarms. After helping build Skype, burning out, and surviving a heart attack mid-flight, Eric made a radical shift in how he thought, lived, and led.

He shares his journey of transformation, from chasing achievement to living with intention and alignment. Eric explains how upgrading your identity can change everything, why resilience isn’t enough, and how a simple system using phone alarms helped him reset his life. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in performance mode and is ready to become anti-fragile.

💡 What You’ll Learn:

✅ Why identity is the foundation of performance
✅ How to use the 3 Alarms to align your day with your goals
✅ The difference between resilience and anti-fragility
✅ How to think, plan, and live like a high-performer
