Have you ever felt stuck doing something that pays the bills but drains your soul? In this episode of The Mission of Greatness, we’re diving deep into what it truly means to find your passion—and how to turn it into a life path that feels fulfilling, sustainable, and impactful.
You’ll hear Jake’s story, a successful engineer who found his real spark through tutoring and slowly turned it into a thriving online education platform. And then there’s Lindsay, a corporate professional who rediscovered her joy by helping others prepare for job interviews—eventually turning her side passion into a purpose-driven coaching business.
We also break down two powerful research studies:
The Passion Paradox Study by Dr. Robert Vallerand explains the difference between healthy and harmful passion, and how finding balance leads to greater creativity and well-being.
The Curiosity Study by Dr. Todd Kashdan, which proves that passion is rarely “found” but instead built over time through exploration and trying new things.
If you’re wondering how to discover what truly lights you up—or how to take the first step toward making your passion part of your purpose—this episode is for you.
This week’s challenge: Take one small action toward something you’ve always been curious about.
Tune in now, and start walking the path toward your own Mission of Greatness.
