Let Meaning Find You

We all want purpose. We all want something that feels meaningful.

But not everyone has that thing. And when you don’t, it can feel like something is wrong with you. Like you’re missing something that everyone else seems to have.

I’ve spent a lot of time in that space. Not really knowing what I wanted to do, trying different things, not connecting with anything deeply, and feeling like I needed to figure it out.

In this episode I talk about that feeling of being directionless, what actually happens when you don’t have a clear purpose, and why searching for meaning can sometimes be the thing that stops you from finding it.

We get into chasing feelings, having too many options, being a generalist, and why comfort on its own isn’t enough.

And also what actually creates meaning, or at least what I’ve come to understand about it.

This isn’t really a “here’s how to find your purpose” episode. It’s more just an honest look at what it feels like when you don’t have one, and what to do with that.
