Goals, plans and everything in between with Mike Larkan
About this episode
We all like to think life follows a bit of a plan.
You build something over time. You find your rhythm. You get comfortable with where things are heading. And then, sometimes, life shifts. Not always in a dramatic way, but enough to make you rethink what comes next.
In this episode, Mike Larkan shares the story behind a life that’s been anything but linear. From decades in television to building something new, his experience is less about a single turning point and more about how everything adds up over time.
We talk about:
- How short-term decisions shape the bigger picture
- The balance between planning ahead and living in the moment
- What happens when your identity is tied to your work
- How major life events can shift your perspective
- What “enough” looks like and how that can change over time
- Why some of the most important decisions aren’t purely financial
It’s a conversation about perspective, adaptability and the long game, not just in money, but in life.
Here's to your Good Life. And thanks for listening.
