Episode 249: The Pathless Path with Paul Millerd
Paul Millerd joins Bradley to discuss what is truly valuable in work and life. He developed his memoir, The Pathless Path, following a health crisis and deep self reflection. “Who am I if not a worker?” That’s the question that Paul asked himself amid a health crisis after business school and one that kickstarted an almost decade-long journey of experiments, adventure, and self-reflection. The Pathless Path is a personal story, a deep dive into the history of work, and a bold proposal of a new story for thinking about how work fits into our lives. The Pathless Path is Paul Millerd’s earnest attempt a new story for thinking about work and life. It’s a shift from “getting ahead” to coming alive. It’s learning to develop a healthy relationship with fear, uncertainty, and discomfort. It’s also about unleashing inner creativity, finding the others, redefining success, and shifting from thinking about work as something that comes with a paycheck towards it as something that you want to commit to over the long-term. > JOIN THE PRIVATE LEADERSHIP PODCAST COMMUNITY! <This community has access to a seat at the live recordings for all Monday podcast episodes, monthly, live Q&As with our favorite podcast guests, a private community on Facebook, and more.
