In this episode, I sit down with Steve Schlafman to explore the challenges and beauty of slowing down and the profound process of self-discovery. Steve shares his journey of leaving a successful career in venture capital to embark on a path of introspection, and we dive into the importance of listening to our inner knowing and embracing uncertainty along the way.

We discuss the struggle of slowing down in a fast-paced world, including the tendency to distract ourselves instead of getting quiet. Steve shares his approach to helping high performers navigate transitions and find clarity during times of change. We also tackle a big question: Is slowing down at odds with ambition? Spoiler: It’s not about losing your drive, but rather about finding the right balance and living with more intention. If you are navigating through a transition, this conversation offers valuable insights to help you recalibrate and thrive.
