Awake at 3

What happens when a successful business executive decides there's more to life than the boardroom?

In this episode of AWAKE AT 3, Steve Duddy sits down with Sam Park, a former Chief Operating Officer whose journey has taken him from the challenges of business leadership and entrepreneurship to the breathtaking heights of Everest Base Camp and the icy wilderness of Antarctica.

From navigating the corporate world to seeking extraordinary adventures—including an unforgettable quest to sleep among penguins—Sam shares his perspectives on success, curiosity, personal growth, and the importance of embracing experiences beyond our professional lives.

It's a conversation about leadership, adventure, stepping outside your comfort zone, and recognizing that some of life's most meaningful experiences happen when we dare to explore.

Remember—stay curious.

What happens when professional success is no longer enough?

In this episode of Awake at 3, Steve Duddy sits down with Ray Hunt, a successful former executive who built a life around the things that bring him meaning and purpose.

Ray is an award-winning winemaker, passionate fly fisherman, collector of bamboo fly rods, and someone who has learned that success isn't simply about what you accomplish—it's about what you choose to do with the life you've built.

Steve and Ray talk about career, reinvention, friendship, fly fishing, wine, and the experiences and conversations that become more meaningful as we move through life.

And yes, somehow Danny Boy makes its way into the conversation.

Awake at 3 explores the conversations that don't always happen in boardrooms, pitch decks, or polished LinkedIn posts—the ones about leadership, purpose, curiosity, and what really matters.

Hosted by Steve Duddy, Founder of Duddy Executive Services.

In the inaugural episode of Awake at 3, Steve Duddy sits down with longtime leader and entrepreneur Kevin Smith for a candid conversation about leadership, business, personal growth, and the lessons that only experience can teach.

Together, they explore the challenges leaders face behind the scenes, the importance of curiosity, building authentic relationships, learning from failure, and why success is often measured by much more than titles or financial results.

This isn't an interview. It's an honest conversation between two friends reflecting on the experiences that shape our careers—and our lives.

Whether you're leading a company, building a business, or simply looking for perspective on your own journey, you'll find insights that are both practical and deeply personal.
