Brandon examines the often-underestimated power of purpose in mental health and personal growth, showing how even small, daily actions can become transformative steps toward healing. For many, finding purpose can be challenging when facing depression, anxiety, or low motivation, yet these small steps can help shift us from a self-focused mindset to one of connection and contribution. He also addresses the pitfalls of today’s "feel-good" culture, where instant gratification can overshadow the discomfort sometimes needed to cultivate lasting purpose. For parents, Brandon discusses how modeling a purpose-driven life and involving children in meaningful roles can plant seeds of hope. Moving beyond what simply feels good to fulfilling roles that benefit others allows us to build lives that fill us up in lasting ways. This episode is a call to embrace purpose as a journey, encouraging us to look beyond ourselves and discover how small, purposeful actions can be powerful tools for mental wellness.
