We live in a world that tells us to do more, push harder, and optimize everything.

Even with that, the more we chase success, the more hollow it can feel.

Brad Stulberg has spent his career studying a different question: What does real excellence actually look like, and how do you pursue it without losing yourself in the process?

He is one of the most influential voices in human performance and well-being. He’s advised Olympians, executives, and creatives; he teaches at the University of Michigan; and he’s the bestselling author of Peak Performance, The Passion Paradox, and The Practice of Groundedness.

His new book, The Way of Excellence, challenges hustle culture head-on and offers a clear, grounded path to sustainable mastery in a chaotic world. 

And he’s here to break it down and show how it can help you whether you’re running a marathon or simply trying to stay fit in a chaotic world.

What makes Brad so endearing is the breadth of his experience: he writes well-respected books; he blogs for his information-rich site, The Growth Equation; he’s a speaker and coach; and he’s on faculty at the University of Michigan’s graduate school of public health. 

His portfolio is as wide-ranging as his impact, and he’s here to break down his newest release that is sure to bless millions.
