Hi, I’m steve galvin.

In 2001, I walked away from my corporate career to go backpacking. It was a big decision, but it changed everything. Suddenly, my life came alive in ways I never could have imagined. My lifelong dreams became a reality, and I was happier than I had even been before. It was my first taste of the effortless life.

When I eventually started working again, it all came crashing down. The magic disappeared and I was back in the rat race again. It was then that I made a promise to myself - that I would never settle for a mediocre life again, and that I would not stop until I found the answer to one big question: how do you create your reality? I knew I had stumbled onto something important, and it became my life’s mission to discover what it was.

My journey has been long and winding. Over the past two decades, I have explored life in a variety of ways. I have worked with some of the world’s most prestigious companies, taught at university, and taken on roles as diverse as fitness trainer, interior designer, and language teacher. I have also launched online businesses, travelled, and embraced a rich array of experiences. Underlying all of this has been that single, driving passion to understand how reality works.

Along the way, I’ve had the privilege of learning from and being mentored by some of the world’s leading experts in this field. I have failed more times than I care to remember, but through it all, I have never wavered from my mission. I have experimented, observed, tinkered, tested, and triumphed – gathering a wealth of invaluable insights along the way.

The result?

I found something even greater than what I was searching for. I realized that it wasn’t really about the external things - it was about coming home to myself. Realizing that everything you desire comes from within. That’s when I found what I was really looking for - true inner peace and joy.

The Effortless Life is a profoundly simple and beautiful approach to life - finding joy within, doing the things you love, and trusting that everything else will take care of itself. It is not about techniques, effort, or hard work. It is simply about being in your presence and enjoying each moment of your life. And oddly enough, that’s when the external things come too.

My book - The Effortless Life - represents the culmination of my journey. It is my great pleasure to share what I have learned, and I hope that it inspires you to start living your own version of the effortless life! Yes, your dreams are meant to come true - and it is much easier than you think.
