in this episode of Unconventional Wisdom About Conventional Wisdom, host Kim Miller-Hershon sits down with Steve Perry, founder of The Well Recruiting Solutions. Steve’s journey is anything but ordinary — from starting as a 20-year-old financial advisor in Alaska, to becoming the youngest senior partner at New York Life, to walking away from a \$900k corporate career to build something truly his own.
We dive into:
🔹 Why he left corporate success behind to launch a niche recruiting firm for wealth management companies
🔹 His unconventional approach to leadership and why he rejects the idea of “servant leadership”
🔹 How he balances structure with adaptability in fast-changing environments
🔹 The surprising business lesson of *never hitting your goals* — and why that’s a strength
If you’re an entrepreneur, executive, or growth-minded professional, you’ll get both inspiration and practical wisdom from this conversation.
