Why Does Finding Purpose Give Us Anxiety?
It's time to start finding your purpose.
Come on a journey with Jordan and I to understand the often misunderstood concept of purpose. Jordan's authentic journey from his career as a medical professional to finding authenticity in life's pursuits is inspiring. We delve into themes of fulfillment beyond societal expectations, the pitfalls of chasing financial independence without a deeper purpose, and the transformation of personal narratives from victimhood to heroism. Jordan emphasizes the significance of small, purpose-driven activities over grandiose achievements. He highlights the importance of revisiting one’s childhood joys, breaking free from generational trauma, and cultivating community as pathways to discovering purpose.
If you are ready to embrace change and confront the all-too-common feeling of not being 'enough' through introspection and meaningful action, this episode is for you!
