The Gift of Existence & Finding Meaning in the Time We’re Given

In this episode of The Bold Moves Podcast, we dive into a topic that sits close to our hearts. One that is equal parts confronting and liberating. We’re talking about the gift of existence. Mortality. The reality that, when we truly look at it with an open mind, can become the most powerful motivator to start living with intention.
Inspired by Steven Bartlett’s 33 Laws and his concept of the days we’ve lived versus the days we likely have left, we break down the numbers… and let’s just say, they hit hard. But that’s exactly the point. When you realise how finite life actually is, everything shifts.
We explore the miracle of simply being here, the insane odds of your existence, and why so many of us drift through life on autopilot.
This episode is as much a wake-up call for us as it is for you, a reminder to stop giving your precious hours to things that don’t matter and to start paying attention to the relationships, habits and choices shaping your life.
We also talk about the courage it takes to say the things you’ve been meaning to say, to appreciate the people you love and to embrace the moments you’re in… because none of us know when it will be the last time.
If you’ve been feeling disconnected, stuck in a loop, or like time is slipping away, this conversation will pull you right back to what’s real. It will remind you to pause, reflect and live purposefully, not by default.
Because remembering you’re going to die… is often the fastest way to start truly living.
