Is it possible to have success and still feel like something’s missing?
If you've ever hit a milestone and felt more empty than accomplished… this episode will strike a chord.
In this episode, host Eric Pfeiffer takes us deep into a transformational conversation about the 5 Capitals—a framework that redefines what real success looks like. Drawing from leadership coaching, personal development, and spiritual alignment, Eric unpacks why so many high-performers feel out of sync, even when everything on paper looks perfect.
What are the 5 Capitals? They're not just financial. Eric explores five critical areas of life and leadership:
-
Spiritual Capital: Your core values and sense of purpose
-
Relational Capital: The quality of your connections
-
Physical Capital: Your energy and health
-
Intellectual Capital: Knowledge, wisdom, and applied learning
-
Financial Capital: Your income, assets, and ability to create wealth
Most leaders focus almost entirely on financial capital—often at the expense of the others. But as Eric shares, true fulfillment comes from investing across all five, creating alignment between your actions and your identity.
📊 Here’s a stat to think about: According to a 2023 report by Gallup, only 23% of employees worldwide are thriving in overall well-being, despite rising global income levels. The takeaway? More money doesn't mean more meaning.
🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:
-
Why burnout is often a symptom of capital imbalance
-
How to self-assess your current investment in each capital
-
What it means to lead from alignment, not exhaustion
-
A mindset shift that reframes productivity and purpose
Whether you're an executive, entrepreneur, or emerging leader, this episode is a masterclass in redefining success from the inside out. If you're ready to stop sacrificing meaning for metrics, this conversation will equip you with a new lens and a better strategy.
