Life. Meaning. Purpose.
by Adam Burns
Life is full of events, happenings, interactions, relationships and moments that define who you are and who you are becoming. When you actually stop and take stock of “what” is happening, you begin to articulate your “why” and take hold of your life. My name is Adam Burns and I invite you to join me as I reflect on my own journey and offer insights to help in yours.

Ep 13. Touchstone to Your Dreams
As important as it is to have that touchstone to reality, any whose ever worked on their dream knows that we have already have an in-built auditor: doubt. When imposter syndrome sets in you don’t need a reality check. Rather, you need someone or something that reconnects you to that inspiration…

Ep 11. Managing Risk For Fulfilment
Risk-return trade-off isn’t just a business principle, it plays out practically in real life. We risk studying at uni, or in asking someone out and the return is increased employability or a long-term relationship. The risk is the time, energy and attention you spend working towards and outcome....

Ep 4. Value Setting
