ILLUMENATE 003: Embracing Integrity and Joy with Steve Walker
[Also on Apple, Spotify, and Amazon Music]
In this episode of ILLUMENATE, I sit down with Steve Walker—certified transformational life coach, meditation teacher, and host of the Integrity and Joy podcast. A former U.S. diplomat, activist, and educator, Steve shares his journey from international diplomacy to teaching and, ultimately, to coaching. He discusses the values that drive him, the importance of mindfulness, and the transformative power of vulnerability and connection.
Steve reflects on pivotal moments in his life—from serving in the State Department during historic global events to navigating personal challenges and career transitions—and offers insights into building purpose, fostering authentic relationships, and staying grounded through change. Our conversation highlights the role of community, self-awareness, and personal growth in living a meaningful life.
Join us to learn practical takeaways about embracing vulnerability, finding purpose, and nurturing connections to create positive change.

Such a powerful conversation! Crazy to think we were both behind the Iron Curtain at the same time.
