## Resource

In this episode of The Inner Entrepreneur, Paul chats author and sustainability strategist Mark Coleman for a thought-provoking conversation about what prosperity really means. In a world that often defines success by money, status and endless growth, Mark challenges us to rethink the very idea of prosperity. Together, Paul and Mark explore why many entrepreneurs achieve financial success yet still feel unfulfilled, why "more" is rarely the answer, and how genuine wealth is rooted in purpose, relationships and contribution. From entrepreneurship and leadership to sustainability, technology and our responsibility to future generations, this conversation invites us to consider a broader definition of success—one that benefits not only ourselves, but those around us. If you've ever wondered whether there is more to success than simply accumulating more, this episode offers a refreshing and deeply human perspective.
