What’s next after a brain tumor? [Steven Mallouk]

About this episode

What happens when a brain tumor forces you to actually take a break and stop? After decades in management consulting and startups, Steve Mallouk's diagnosis made him confront the difference between chasing "enough" money versus "enough" life experiences. His journey from BCG partner to embracing vulnerability reveals how facing mortality can have unintended consequences. [Episode 91]


Steven Mallouk is a happily retired executive living life to the fullest.
