#066 - Eric Hinman - Building An Intentional Life Through Wellness

Outworker

Eric Hinman breaks down how being an only child shaped his gift for community building. From rowdy college parties to wellness-centered gatherings, that instinct to bring people together has only deepened. He shares his transformation from out-of-shape insurance salesman to elite Ironman athlete and how the pursuit of performance pushed him to rethink what health really means. We explore identity shifts, sustainable wellness, and building a life rooted in passion, autonomy, and intention—all while helping others do the same. Eric also unpacks how he’s built a life around content, brand partnerships, and advising early-stage wellness companies. Through it all, authenticity and community remain his greatest assets.
