039 | The 5 F's That Separate Rich Men from Empty Ones w/ Justin Bindel
from Lean and Lethal Podcast · host Bridger Deaton
Justin Bindel has worn a lot of hats: pastor, church planter, CrossFit gym owner, real estate professional, rancher, dad of three and a husband. But underneath all of it is one framework he keeps coming back to: the 5 F's. Faith. Family. Fitness. Formation. Finance. Get the order wrong, and you end up rich in one area and bankrupt in the ones that actually matter.In this conversation, Justin breaks down what he learned watching his mom get diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's three months before COVID hit, why he walked away from leading a church in Salt Lake City to move his family back to Texas, and the question John Eldredge says every man is quietly asking himself: Do I have what it takes?We get into:The 5 F's framework and why finance is dead last on purposeWhy most men live with "under the sun" mentality and what changes when you don'tThe misogi: doing one thing a year with a 50% failure rate (without dying)Extended adolescence, and why Justin has his 12 and 14-year-old sons buying their own cattleThe "underwear water" passage from Jeremiah that reframes how we chase satisfactionWhy he hosts a goal summit with his wife every October and how to actually run oneThe difference between what your head knows and what your heart believesIf you're a guy who looks like he's got it together on the outside but feels like he's faking it underneath, this one's for you.
