Hi—I’m Benoit Malige.
I help high achievers break free from unfulfilling success through counterintuitive strategies and the power of writing.

You know that feeling when you’ve ticked all the boxes of society’s version of success,but something still feels off?
‍
Yeah, I’ve been there.
‍
It’s like realizing the ladder you’ve been climbing is against the wrong wall.
‍

In 2011, I left France with nothing but a suitcase and a stubborn belief that the American dream was my ticket to happiness.
‍
Fast forward a few years, and I had done just that: I built a multiple 7-figure real estate investment firm in under three years, managing 37 contractors and 10 employees.
‍

Impressive,right?
‍
At least, that’s what my LinkedIn profile said... but it didn’t tell the full story.
‍
I didn’t stop there. I became a general partner in a real estate fund with over $250M in Assets Under Management and launched an investor networking group that grew to 30 cities and 30,000 members in just two years.
‍
I was living the American dream—on paper, at least.
‍
Then, I hit a wall:
‍
A professional and personal burnout.
‍
Despite all the external success, I felt empty. It turns out, you can buy a lot of things with money, but fulfillment isn’t one of them.
‍

So, I did what any rational person would do—I sold a lot of my possessions and decided to start my second life.
‍
I hit the road, traveling the world with a simple, two part plan: write every day, and travel.
‍

Liberating?Absolutely.
‍
Terrifying? You bet.
‍
Worth it? More than I can put into words.
‍

Writing became my therapy—a way to exorcise the demons in my head, reflect on my mistakes (and there were plenty), and guide my personal development.
‍
It brought me the kind of clarity that no amount of business success ever did.
‍

I’m not just sharing strategies for success; I’m sharing how understanding the brain allows us to engineer the way we live.
‍

‍Why“Engineer Your Existence”?

‍Because when you understand how your mind works, you can break down problems, challenge assumptions, and use first principles thinking to design a life that’s uniquely yours.
‍

It’s not about following a predetermined path—it’s about creating your own by mastering how you think, act, and evolve.
