You're listening to TIP. You're listening to the Richer, Wiser, Happier podcast, where your host, William Green, interviews the world's greatest investors and explores how to win in markets and life. Hi folks, I'm absolutely delighted to welcome today's guest, Brad Stahlberg. Brad is the author of a new book titled The Way of Excellence, which is being published on January 27th. The subtitle is A Guide to True Greatness and Deep Satisfaction in a Chaotic World.
I read a pre-publication copy over the last few days and found it really helpful and deeply thought-provoking. It's an extremely practical book, but I'd say it's also very humane and soulful in its view of what constitutes a truly successful life. And I've actually already pre-ordered 28 copies of the book as gifts, including a copy for everyone in my Richer, Wiser, Happier masterclass. So that gives you some sense that I I think Brad is teaching things that are really valuable.
He previously wrote two other excellent books, The Practice of Groundedness and Masters of Change, which is a book we discussed on the podcast in late 2024. I'd say that all three books are part of Brad's grand mission of exploring how to build a rich and meaningful life that's true to your values, which I guess is very similar to what we're exploring here on the podcast and also in my book, Richer Wiser Happier. In any case, today we're going to talk in depth about the principles and the qualities and the practices that will actually help you to create a life built around sustainable excellence, which is a key focus of Brad's. So welcome, Brad. It's really lovely to see you again.
