My special guest is Steve Perkins
Meet Steve Perkins, a friend with a passion for living a life of purpose without sacrificing his family and faith. Growing up in Michigan with a love for sports and music, Steve wrestled with questions like, What do I want to be when I grow up?, driving him to begin a journey of introspection and growth. Despite stepping into the world of engineering, his focus never strayed from his desire to help others find their purpose - a mission that ultimately led him to entrepreneurial success. His conviction to maintaining balance in life, relationships, and faith reflect his belief that a purposeful life should never be at the expense of our personal wellbeing.
Balance is about knowing our own capacity and setting right-sized expectations for ourselves. It's not about comparing ourselves to others. - Steve Perkins
