Episode 132: Stop Trying to Find Your Purpose (Do This Instead)

from Your Spiritual Upgrade with Greta Ertl · host Greta Ertl

If you've ever felt anxious trying to figure out your purpose, this episode is for you. In this episode, I share the shift that changed everything for me: It's not about finding your purpose It's about living purposefully When I stopped obsessing over whether I was in the "right" job and started showing up with intention where I was, everything began to change. Inside this episode, we talk about: Why the question "What is my purpose?" can actually keep you stuck The difference between having a purpose vs. living purposefully How comparison and pressure disconnect you from your own path Why your current situation might be exactly where you're meant to be How to bring more intention, presence, and meaning into your everyday life The paradox of purpose: your life matters deeply… and it's also not that serious This is for you if: You feel stuck, uncertain, or disconnected from your path You're constantly questioning if you're "doing the right thing" You want to feel more aligned, confident, and purposeful in your life You're ready to stop overthinking and start actually living Ways to go deeper: If this episode resonated with you and you're ready for real support in living this work: Book a free 1:1 coaching consult Let's talk about what's coming up for you and see if private coaching is a fit.
