Who Am I?

Hi! I’m Michael Lee — a managed care pharmacist, freelance consultant, real estate agent, and occasional speaker/presenter on podcasts and at 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: get into a good college, go to professional school, 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, it might sound in a way a bit cliché, but I think there’s value in asking: how do we redefine success in a way that feels 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 document what success means to me — not just in my professional life, but through the lens of personal growth, curiosity, and self-awareness.

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 success means for me — but also spark something in others who are on a similar path.

And if nothing else, this will be a meaningful archive to look back on — 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. I truly appreciate you taking the time to read.
