110. Finding Yourself

What if finding yourself isn't about discovery—but about choosing who you want to become? In this episode of Skipping Stones, Seth Roberts challenges the popular idea that purpose is something hidden deep inside us, waiting to be uncovered. Instead, he explores how meaning is built through the choices we make and the way we show up each day. Rather than chasing significance, consider these questions: What if a good life is made of ordinary acts done well? What if your greatest contribution is helping the people closest to you? What if contentment is more valuable than feeling important? From The Lord of the Rings to Lilo & Stitch, this conversation reflects on why a life of quiet service, steady character, and simple purpose may be more fulfilling than a life spent searching for something bigger.
