After working at McKinsey and
getting an MBA from MIT, Paul Millerd was succeeding well on a path
that “made sense”. However, things started changing when he had a
health crisis, which ended up with him embarking on a
pathless path. Since 2017, he’s been tinkering with
multiple side-hustles, writing newsletters, creating podcasts,
traveling, and helping others join the pathless
path.
