The Pathless Path with Paul Millerd

Ben Hunt is a father, husband, former academic, author turned blogger, former hedge fund analyst, investment advisor, and farmer.

And he’s also my podcast guest in this episode.

His writing has been an inspiration to me as I try to carve my own path after leaving what he calls “Team Elite.” His philosophy of make, protect, teach focuses on local and bottom-up change in the world.  In addition, we also discuss:

  • How losing his father changed his relationship with time
  • Industrially necessary scripts and "the good egg"
  • Why writing about work elicits strange responses
  • How he thinks about narratives and politics related to work
