Peter Awad shares his journey from an immigrant family’s grocery store to a fulfilling coaching career. Raised in a hustle-driven environment, he chased business ventures but found true purpose through coaching. Gain insights on aligning superpowers with purpose, mastering identity, and leading with faith.

Ever feel like you're grinding away at work you're good at, but something's still missing? That nagging feeling has a name—"high dissatisfaction, low vision"—and it's often where transformation begins.

In this profound conversation with coach Peter Whitestone, we explore how discovering your true identity unlocks purpose and fulfillment. Peter shares his journey from immigrant family grocery store worker to successful entrepreneur who still felt like a square peg in a round hole despite outward success. His breakthrough came when he finally identified his superpower—connecting with people and helping them solve problems—and aligned it with his work.

The distinction between identity, calling, and assignment forms the heart of our discussion. "If you don't know who you are," Peter explains, "the world will tell you." Many of us confuse what we do (our assignment) with who we are (our identity), leading to crisis when circumstances change. True freedom comes when you build everything on the foundation of knowing yourself.

We delve into practical wisdom for leaders, including the power of active listening, asking quality questions, and taking responsibility. Peter reveals how the most effective coaches speak less and listen more, creating space for others to find their own solutions. He also shares why surrounding yourself with people who kindly challenge you to grow is essential for lasting transformation.

Whether you're feeling stuck in your career, questioning your purpose, or simply wanting to lead more effectively, this episode offers both inspiration and practical guidance for aligning your life with your unique design. Ready to stop spinning your wheels and start moving toward purpose? This conversation is your starting point.
