    In this “Lessons” episode, Saul Blinkoff, Disney animator and creative leader behind films like Mulan and Tarzan, reflects on how achieving success can still leave a deeper sense of purpose unfulfilled. He shares how redefining abundance as service—not accumulation—shifted his mindset from personal achievement to responsibility and impact. Saul explores how awareness of mortality sharpens clarity around values, leadership, and decision-making, and why using creative work to help others creates meaning that lasts far beyond career milestones.
