100 episodes in 3.5 years of Working Towards our Purpose, and here's what I learned. In this special 100th episode of Working Towards Our Purpose, I share the most important lessons I've learned since starting this podcast over 3 years ago. I discuss the challenges and breakthroughs of my journey, from feeling lost to discovering truly meaningful work and authentic community. You'll hear my honest reflections on the difference I've seen in my own life since leaving the corporate handcuffs. Transitioning away from a traditional career path I've navigated purpose, mental health, and made it a priority to find my authentic voice. This episode is for anyone who hears that voice in their head asking for something more.✨ FREE GUIDE: Soften Your Inner Critic in 7 Days: A Guide to Stop Getting In Your Own Way📍 Timestamps:00:00 – Check In01:00 – Purpose02:10 – Why I Started 03:17 – Leaving Corporate04:44 – Impactful Interviews08:14 – Shifting from Entrepreneurship to Personal Purpose12:47 – Internal Growth and Mental Health18:32 – Journey as a Creator22:34 – Appreciation for Listeners24:22 – The Power of Small Community Impact27:23 – Community Spaces28:56 – The Value of Authentic Work Over Comfort31:33 – How to Support 💡Key TakeawaysIn this episode you'll learn:Life after leaving corporate AmericaThe importance of self-discovery, mental health, and authentic livingBuilding a community through a podcastPersonal growth through letting go Creating meaningful connectionsStrategies for finding purpose and fulfillment outside traditional career pathsThe power of impacting local communitiesReflections on podcast growth, reaching international listeners, and future intentions 🚀 Start Here If You’re New1.
