Episode notes

Khe Hy spent 15 years rising through the ranks on Wall Street, eventually becoming one of BlackRock’s youngest managing directors. Then he walked away.

In this episode of The Advisor Journey, Khe shares how he traded a high-status career for a life aligned with his values. He talks about the immigrant work ethic that shaped him, the internal voice advisors often battle, and the “magic window” that led him to prioritize fatherhood.

Khe reflects on building RadReads, developing an executive coaching practice, becoming an early Notion creator, and launching his current AI consultancy. Through it all, his focus never changed: follow what feels alive, reduce the noise, and let curiosity lead the way.

Advisors will hear a perspective that goes deeper than growth tactics — one grounded in clarity, intention, and creating a life you actually want to live.
