What if the relentless chase for big goals is actually what’s making you feel unfulfilled? In this episode, hospice physician and author Jordan Grumet shares what he’s learned from those at the end of life—and why our culture’s definition of purpose may be all wrong. Instead of striving for impact, Jordan invites us to focus on the simple, joyful actions that light us up right now. You’ll learn why most of us don’t have a purpose problem—we have a meaning problem—and how to gently shift your life toward something more authentic. This is a conversation that could help you stop chasing and start living.
Jordan's book, The Purpose Code: How to unlock meaning, maximize happiness, and leave a lasting legacy, is available now!
