How do you define success for yourself, and how does that definition impact your life and work? For Tim Schurrer, success is less about being in the spotlight and more about building a humble confidence. Tim is the former COO for StoryBrand and the author of “The Secret Society of Success,” a new book that highlights stories of people who made a major impact whether or not the spotlight was on them. In this episode, Tim shares some of the biggest lessons he’s learned about pursuing healthy growth, rejecting the spotlight mindset, and right-sizing your impact as a leader.
