Grow Your Network: Phil Pearlman Is A Reinvention Coach
January 9, 2026·0 comments·zg
Do you know Phil Pearlman? He's a former psychology graduate student turned polymath - someone who's lived multiple professional lives, reinvented himself repeatedly, and at 58 is getting faster at running every single year while thinking with surgical precision about behavioral psychology, role modeling, and what it actually means to show up authentically in every single context.
If not, allow me to introduce you. Phil embodies something rare: the intellectual rigor of someone trained in psychology paired with the hard-won humility of someone who's had many careers and learned something genuine from each one. He writes thoughtfully online, coaches people through life transitions, and has one of the most genuinely curious minds I know.
I wanted to connect with him because he represents something I deeply value: the willingness to be radically authentic about how you actually work, without pretense or the exhausting performance of it all.
Our conversation is LIVE now on the Cultish Creative + Epsilon Theory YouTube channels. We actually started by watching a clip from Nancy Berger and Julia Duthie discussing what consistency really means - two women who've reinvented themselves completely and embody transformation - and then Phil took us on a masterclass about behavior, role modeling, boundaries, and why your actual actions matter infinitely more than your stated intentions.
