Podcast 59: Creative Deja Vu - Finding Your Purpose When Everything's Already Said

from Dose of Wonder · host Caitlin McColl 🇨🇦

This week’s podcast talks about the existential dilemma of feeling that all meaningful thoughts and expressions have already been articulated throughout history.. I talk about the common human experience of searching for life’s purpose, often feeling pressured by societal expectations to achieve specific milestones. But I say that life inherently lacks one fixed, overarching purpose. Instead, I encourage people to discover and redefine their personal purpose repeatedly throughout their lives, and that these purposes can be as simple as making coffee or as ambitious as starting a business, and are subject to change. It’s important to live boldly and embrace mistakes and contribute their unique perspectives even if the core ideas aren’t entirely new.Loved this episode?
