Purpose: Conversation with Holly Woods

Good Evening! Photo by Ian Schneider on Unsplash Tenth episode of the Underbelly Project podcast. Purpose. For today’s episode, I spoke with purpose expert, author, and coach — Holly Woods. Her book, The Golden Thread: Where to Find Purpose in the Stages of Your Life is a cool dive into living life on purpose. Our conversation covered stuff from excavating our purpose to being rooted in purpose to some really lovely personal stories — including the idea that living on this earth is really challenging but it is worth it. What we talked about: * First, It starts with mindfulness and space * Second, We are rooted in purpose * Third, It can be challenging and a bit scary to let go of stuff that isn’t serving you anymore — but it’s so worthwhile. * Fourth, Our lives matter — If you have ever (and if you are human you likely have) questioned whether your life matters, please listen to this conversation. I feel delight to have spoken at such depth with Holly and utter joy to be able to share the conversation with you.
