Paul and I first met 3 years ago at an event in Portland—he had recently left his job in corporate consulting and we bonded over how lost we'd both felt at times.
Later that week I gave him a copy of '
The Three Marriages' a book by David Whyte where he talks about the Pathless Path that is required for anyone looking to do or create something original.
Fast-forward to today and Paul has just published his first book — Called the Pathless Path — which is his roadmap of sorts for those of us who might have had the boldness to quit the default path & taking an experiment-based approach to figure out how to live well.
Some of the themes we dive into are:
🤔 How he has been exploring
the magic of non-doing❓ Some of the
most powerful questions he uses during curiosity conversations with others who are looking to take the leap.
🎢 How to navigate the painful reality that
family + friends might not understand his decisions to walk away from a successful career.
📚 Some of the things he believes hold most people back from living more intentionally &
the big breakthrough moment he experienced in the midst of writing his book.
