#054 - Join me for the “know thyself” episode where I talk with actuary, nonprofit leader, humanitarian, podcaster, entrepreneur and poker champion, Steve Fredlund. Steve’s jam is coaching leaders to become happier, and he has some great advice in this episode on how to do just that. We discuss:

the evolution from doing what you think you should do to doing what you want,
the fact that work-life balance doesn’t really apply to multi-passionates,
how to have a successful relationship with a specialist,
how the flip side of embracing change can be seen as “flaky” while the flip side of being risk-averse can be perceived as “loyal,”
and the courage required to figure out what you actually believe.

The StrengthsFinder test that Steve references has a cost, but this one is a free alternative.
