Who is Paul Millerd?

Paul Millerd, the founder of The Pathless Path, is a writer and consultant originally from Connecticut. He studied engineering and business at MIT and previously worked in strategy consulting at McKinsey & Company. In 2017, he left the traditional corporate path to explore self-employment, eventually writing about and embracing a life focused on curiosity and meaningful work without a structured career trajectory.

What problem does The Pathless Path solve?

The Pathless Path, founded by Paul Millerd, helps people rediscover and redefine success by stepping away from conventional career expectations and exploring a life centered around work they truly enjoy. Many individuals are trapped in jobs they dislike, feeling pressured by societal norms, leading to anxiety and burnout. Through his book, podcast, and community, Millerd offers guidance on breaking free from this "default path," empowering his audience to nurture curiosity and pursue work that resonates with their inner desires, ultimately fostering a more fulfilling and balanced life.
