Who Am I?

Hi! I’m Michael Lee — a managed care pharmacist, freelance consultant, Washington real estate agent, and the occasional speaker/presenter on podcasts and educational events. At my core, I’m someone who’s curious — always exploring, learning, and evolving through new experiences.

For much of my life, I followed a traditional definition of success: go through school get into a good college, land a stable, well-paying job, buy a home, pay off debt, then save for retirement. And while I’m still on that path, I’ve started to wonder — is that all there is to it?

Like many, I’ve used milestones like job titles, income, and accomplishments to measure success. And don’t get me wrong — financial stability, the freedom to travel, and hitting those goals are meaningful and worth striving for. But lately, I’ve been asking myself: what if success isn’t just about checking boxes? What if it’s also about who we become along the way — how we grow, what we create, and how we show up in the world?

Yes, that might have sounded in a way a bit cliché, but I think there’s merit to it in asking ourselves: how do we redefine success in a way that feels more genuine and authentic?

That question is part of what led me to create this space. It started as a personal experiment — a small corner of the internet to try something new, stretch creatively, and reflect on the journey. A space to share all of my work and experiences, as well as document what success means to me through the lens of personal growth, self-awareness, and curiosity.

I believe each of us has a unique voice, perspective, and set of lived experiences worth sharing. So maybe, by putting my own reflections and lessons out there, I’ll not only move closer to understanding what that "success" looks and means for me — but also spark something in others who are on a similar path.

And if nothing else, this will be a meaningful way to archive everything and just look back on as a reminder of how far I’ve come.

So that’s a bit about me, Michael Lee. I hope this gave you a small glimpse into who I am and what this space is all about. And if you’ve made it this far — thank you for taking the time to read.
