I’m Michael Lassman, an author, speaker, entrepreneur, and former Wall Street and energy executive who spent much of his life pursuing worldly success before realizing I was searching for something deeper: meaning.

Helping People Discover and Live Out Their God-Given Purposes

MEET MICHAEL LASSMAN

Success and Significance Are Not the Same Thing.

For much of my life, I chased success. Like many people, I believed achievement would eventually answer life’s deepest questions.

My journey from Wall Street and the energy industry through addiction, recovery, faith, and transformation taught me something very different:

Success and significance are not the same thing.

Today, I write and speak to help others discover the life they were created to live.

“You weren’t created merely to make a living. You were created to make a difference.”
