In this episode, I am joined by Sam Thomas to explore the evolving concept of success. Sam, an entrepreneur and podcast host, shares personal stories about how his view of success shifted from a purely financial goal to one centred around relationships, fulfilment, and well-being. We discuss how societal pressures, especially on men, shape our success definitions and how these pressures can lead to feelings of failure and self-worth issues.
Key Learnings:
Redefining Success: Success is not just about financial achievements but also about relationships, fulfillment, and personal growth.
Societal Pressures: There is a strong societal focus on financial success, especially for men, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy and failure.
The Journey Matters: The process and experiences along the way are more important than reaching specific financial or status milestones.
Emotional Health: Success should not come at the cost of personal relationships or emotional well-being.
Living in the Present: Finding joy and fulfilment in everyday moments and aligning actions with personal values lead to a deeper sense of success.
