Tetragrammaton with Rick Rubin · Angus Fletcher · 8 Jul 2026 podcast

The way that these units work is they have exercises like that, which force you to kind of self-assess.

And that process of self-assessing is what allows you to start to operate as a singleton.

Then the next thing we discovered just through our research is that singletons have very high emotional intelligence.

And what that means is they're able to read their emotions as signals to tell them what their life narrative looks like.

Your ideal life narrative, if you want to have something called antifragility, so antifragility is basically the ability to grow from negative experiences.

And that means that no matter how much the world resists your beauty, you're able to find an even more beautiful version of your beauty.

If you have an antifragile life narrative, that means your past is integrated and your future is branching.

So it looks a little bit like a trident.

You've got this long stick for your past and you've got all these different possible paths you can take for your future.

And the reason that that's so powerful is because it's your past that gives you your momentum.

Yeah, so you can think of it almost like river running down a mountain.

That river gets its momentum from the length that it's been running.

And if it hits a boulder, it can just go around that boulder, but then it'll go right back on its original course because it has all that momentum behind it.

And so when your past is integrated, that means you can look back on your previous life and say that it was all for one purpose.

And many people struggle to do that, and they think, oh, there are these different people that I was in my past, or these things didn't go anywhere, and they can't integrate all these different parts of their past into themselves.

This particularly happens when you have a traumatic event.

You'll break that traumatic event into a different narrative.

and you'll pretend somehow like it didn't happen as a way of going forward in the future and the two most common forms of traumatic event are grief and shame so if the world does something to you which you can't comprehend you have grief and you start living in two worlds essentially the world in which that happened and the world that you pretend you're living in you're like oh that couldn't have actually happened and you have to learn to integrate the two and be like no that did happen

shame is the other major one you do something that causes you terrible embarrassment you think i couldn't beat that person i'm going to suppress that memory and then you exist essentially as these two people now you've got to go back and say i have gratitude for the shame just like i have gratitude for the grief that's teaching me something about the world you then integrate it when your past is not integrated when it's when it's fractured you have no momentum so you're unable to leave an impact on the world

And you just kind of go all over the place.
