About Phillip Bogolub:
Phillip is a rare fusion of logic, creativity, and soulful curiosity. He’s a movie writer, creator, and producer whose stories don’t just entertain — they challenge the way we see the world. As a music composer, his soundtracks speak without words. As a philosopher, he asks the questions we didn’t even know we needed to answer. And just when you think you’ve got him figured out, you learn he’s also an engineer with a background in the medical field — and he holds an MBA.
From the operating room to the editing room, from composing scores to composing thoughts on life, leadership, and meaning, Phillip Bogolub is proof that the boundaries between science, art, and spirit are made to be crossed.
In this episode, Kevin and Phillip Bogolub discuss:
- Why faith often begins where certainty ends
- The connection between imagination, creativity, and leadership
- How small, unseen acts of influence can ripple into lasting impact
- The difference between living with purpose and chasing success
- Why leaders must embrace vulnerability and discomfort in order to grow
Key Takeaways:
- True faith lives in the tension of uncertainty. Leadership often demands moving forward without all the answers, trusting that clarity will come through action rather than waiting for certainty.
- Imagination isn’t a luxury; it’s an essential part of leadership. By daring to envision possibilities beyond the present, leaders create a future others can step into.
- Impact rarely happens in one big moment. It’s the small conversations, unnoticed acts of service, and daily decisions that add up to influence people who may never forget.
- Success without purpose can feel hollow. Leaders who define their work through service and meaning, rather than status or accolades, leave a legacy that outlasts them.
- Discomfort is a teacher. Stretching into the unknown — whether through risk, vulnerability, or creative leaps — is where leaders uncover their deepest growth.
“Keep learning, learning, learning. As long as you’re going in the right direction, asking your why, and going that direction, you’ll find it in the end.” – Phillip Bogolub
