Conversations with people who slipped past the rules to build thriving lives.
Case Status: Investigation underway
First reports: Coming Q2 2026
Ever get the feeling the rules we’re told will keep us safe… also keep us down?
That the measures meant to protect us from failure quietly steer us away from the risks that make life exciting and abundant?
Many of us just follow along, living the proverbial life of quiet desperation.
But some manage to steal success out of the vault of conformity.
Steal Success is a podcast about those people — and what you and I can learn from them.
If you suspect that:
• the safest life might not be the best one
• interesting opportunities rarely arrive through official channels
• curiosity and experimentation might be more powerful than permission
… then this podcast is your guide to committing thrivery.
Steal Success is a series of interrogations of – I mean, interviews with people whom I like to call felons of flourishing:
- Creators building unconventional careers
- Entrepreneurs who ignored the obvious path
- Social connectors who seem to open doors everywhere they go
- Curious people who turned experimentation into opportunity
In other words: people who took risks and committed thrivery:
- Built abundance.
- Maintained excitement.
- Exercised bargaining power.
LEAD INVESTIGATOR
Rob Farquhar
A fortysomething wannabe rascal, fascinated by how people in a world geared to keep us safe and soft stepped into discomfort and the unknown and made calculated moves to better their circumstances and start really living.
Steal Success is my ongoing investigation into how they do it — and how the rest of us might follow their example.

ARE YOU A PERSON OF INTEREST?
Every investigation depends on good leads.
If you’ve managed to slip past the usual rules and build a life that’s unconventional or thriving…
You may be a person of interest in this case.
Perhaps you’ve:
• built an unusual career path
• created opportunities where none seemed to exist
• ignored the obvious script and found a better one
• turned curiosity and experimentation into real results
• opened doors most people assume are closed
If that sounds like you — or someone you know — the detectives of Steal Success would love to hear from you.
