Vitaliy Katsenelson | The Art of a Meaningful Life


In this episode, my guest is Vitaliy Katsenelson the author of Soul in the Game: The Art of a Meaningful Life. Vitaliy’s book draws from the lives of classical composers, ancient Stoics, and contemporary thinkers. I found his book to be a beautiful collection of life lessons and wisdom for modern life.

Vitaliy Katsenelson was born in Murmansk, USSR, and immigrated to the United States with his family in 1991. After joining Denver-based value investment firm IMA in 1997, Vitaliy became Chief Investment Officer in 2007 and CEO in 2012. Vitaliy has written two books on investing and is an award-winning writer. Known for his uncommon common sense, Forbes Magazine called him “The New Benjamin Graham.” You can learn more about Vitaliy and the book at SoulintheGame.net.

In the conversation, Vitaliy and I discuss:

  • Living in challenging environments

  • Having an operating system for life

  • Stoicism and investing

  • The difference between art and craft

  • Wisdom in daily life and much more
