The Pain Cave & the CISO Edge: Steve Tout on Discipline, Purpose & Digital Equity
In this episode, I sit down with Steve Tout—strategist, author, endurance runner, and advocate for digital equity. We explore the deep connections between running ultramarathons and leading through chaos in cybersecurity. Steve opens up about the discipline behind transformation, his book The CISO Edge, and why purpose isn’t a buzzword—it’s a survival strategy. If you’ve ever faced imposter syndrome, career reinvention, or wondered what keeps someone running 50 miles (literally), this one’s for you.
