    Pulse of the Midwest: Dad (EP 3) | E100

    Welcome to the final chapter of The Pulse of the Midwest mini-series on The Eric Mueller Show. Episode 100 is a full-circle moment for me. To close out the series, I’m sitting down with my lifelong inspiration, role model, and the man who helped shape my values and definition of success. My Dad, Jeff Mueller. This conversation isn’t about titles or accolades. It’s about character, consistency, and showing up the right way over a lifetime. We talk about the lessons learned through hard work, integrity, resilience, and family, and how those values guided his decisions through both wins and challenges. As the final installment of The Pulse of the Midwest, this episode represents the foundation behind the series. The steady work ethic, grounded perspective, and quiet strength that define the Midwest and the people who come from it. This is a conversation about legacy, long-term thinking, and investing in what truly matters. Episode 100 is more than a milestone. It’s a reminder of where it all starts. “Enjoy the ride because you never know when the ride ends.” - Jeff Mueller Highlights of the episode: Why experiences and shared memories create the greatest long-term equityThe danger of living too far in the future and the importance of staying present todayPractical ways to reduce anxiety by compartmentalizing what you can and can’t controlA simple but powerful life analogy using baking a cake that you won’t want to missWhy happiness is a choice and how perspective plays a role in fulfillment To celebrate Episode 100, The Eric Mueller Show merch is now live at WorldofEMU.com.
