Drawing from his upcoming book "The Purpose Code" (releasing January 7th, 2025), Jordan shares:
- Why 91% of people experience "purpose anxiety" and how to overcome it
- The crucial difference between "Big P Purpose" vs "Little P Purpose"
- How meaning and purpose combine to create lasting happiness
- Practical ways to discover your purpose anchors
- Why process matters more than goals in finding fulfillment
- Wisdom learned from end-of-life conversations with patients
This conversation is especially timely for:
