Steve’s coolness can be boiled down to this one quote from the show: “Surfing is so much better than not surfing.”

He went to college to be a middle school history teacher but that doesn’t pay. So, he became a CEO instead. Pretty natural transition if you ask me.

Business owner, CEO, and “World's Greatest Dad”, Steve Walker talks about life as the youngest of 4 brothers, unleashing the monster within, and how he manages family time through it all.

This episode is great for people struggling with self-awareness, doubt, and having no clue wtf you want to do.
