the purpose project

#060 - In this episode, we are talking about a question that so many of us ask ourselves but often never really answer.

Who Am I? Why Am I Here? Where Do I Fit In?

These are big questions. We go out into the world to try to figure it out. How many years have been spent trying to find ourselves? Understand who we are?

Why is this so hard?  I have a theory that it is because we don’t know what questions to ask ourselves about our purpose. When you don’t know the question, how can you expect to receive an answer?

My guest today is Joe Elliott, who is the founder and executive director of the Catalyst Collective and the Purpose Project which helps people answer these questions for themselves. 

They have created a shortcut to help you figure it out rather than spend years searching for meaning and purpose. It is an adrenaline shot of clarity and motivation!

Who wouldn’t love to avoid trial and error, floundering and struggle? 

Are you intrigued? I certainly was!

I am very excited to share this interview with you about this really important topic.

In today's poggie, Carolyn Tate returns to talk about purpose. And while the current iteration of "purpose" seems to involve quitting your job, becoming a digital nomad and freelancing your way through life (all of which are valid choices!) Carolyn is here to talk about finding purpose in your current work. 

So often the conversation about purpose revolves around huge changes, or the fact that big corporations simply aren't interested in creating workplaces of purpose or intention, but as someone who has worked for 15 years in the corporate sector and the past 10 years in small business, Carolyn believes that there are opportunities for purposeful work and living, regardless of vocation. 

This is such an interesting conversation, and as always Carolyn has so many beautiful insights to share.

Enjoy!
