Steve Gamlin has a great sense of humor. And he applies that to his life.
Steve’s journey began with a childhood dream to become a radio DJ, a stand-up comedian, an author, and a teacher—but not in the traditional sense. Fast forward through the years, and Steve has realized each of these professions. However, the road was far from smooth. He describes his challenges as “dumpster-sized potholes,” which included a career burnout, a divorce, and a significant debt that led him to move back with family at the age of 35.
What makes Steve’s story so compelling isn’t just the setbacks he faced but how he rose from them. With the help of a life coach and an unusual yet cathartic experience at a driving range during a thunderstorm, Steve found clarity and laughter in the midst of turmoil. This moment marked a turning point, leading him to pursue motivational speaking and stand-up comedy, aligning with his childhood aspirations.
Throughout the episode, Steve shares his insights on rebuilding life after loss, the power of vision boards, and the importance of journaling and gratitude. His tale is peppered with humor, from skydiving mishaps to the serenity he found in the silent sky.
Steve’s story is not just about the bumps in the road but about the journey of self-discovery and the joy of helping others. He emphasizes the significance of surrounding oneself with positive influences and the strength found in humility and connection to nature.
