With 80k+ global sales, The Pathless Path has become a surprise best-seller. The book has received attention from major publishers, including a 6-figure offer from a Big Five publisher (which was turned down), and is currently being translated into Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Russia, and French.

For anyone who has followed the default path and still feels like something is off or people on an unconventional path who are still searching for a better way forward.

From a small-town Connecticut kid to the most prestigious consulting firm in the world, Paul had everything he thought he wanted. Yet he decided to walk away and embark on the "real work" of his life: finding the things that matter and daring to create a life to make them happen.

The Pathless Path is about finding yourself in the wrong life, and the real work of figuring out how to live. Through painstaking experiments, living in different countries and the goodwill of people from around the world, Paul Millerd pieces together a set of ideas and principles that guide him from unfulfilled and burned out to the good life and all of the existential crises in between.

This book is a personal journey of awakening and is an ideal companion for people considering leaving their jobs, embarking on a new path, dealing with the uncertainty of an unconventional path, or searching for better models for thinking about work in a fast-changing world.

Reader feedback:

“It’s a rare book in that it is tangentially about careers and being more focused and productive, but unlike almost every other book I have read about these topics, I finished this one and felt better about myself and my career.”

“The themes are timeless. The content is expertly written. The advice is refreshingly non-prescriptive.”

“If you have questioned your own path, or a nagging lack of intention in your choices you need this book. If you have felt a gradual loss of agency in your direction you need this book. You are in the grip of an invisible script that was not written for you.” - Kris Abdelmessih

“The writing is fantastic - Paul's writing is approachably poetic; a quick read that weaves together his own experience moving from a 'default path' overachiever to a 'pathless path' seeker of passion and curiosity, deep research into the history of work and collections of perspectives from years of podcasting, friendship, conferences, and meetings with other 'alternative path' life-livers.”
