“Follow what lights you up, no matter how crazy, how wild-haired any of it may seem.”
In this episode, Nick explores the concept of purpose and its significance in our lives. He discusses the dictionary definition of purpose, the meaning of purpose in our lives, and the fact that we each have our own unique purpose on this planet. Listen in as he unpacks the importance of contribution and how it is intertwined with purpose but how we’ve been taught, or shamed, into thinking our purpose is too small if it’s not this massive humanity changing effort. Purpose is about showing up authentically and contributing to the world, irrespective of scale, and understanding the difference between a calling and a whim can truly help us uncover our purpose.
