Finding your purpose has somehow become one of the great pressure campaigns of modern adulthood. We’re supposed to identify our calling, monetize our gifts, make an impact, leave a legacy, and apparently know exactly why we were placed on Earth.
Jamie Roddy has other ideas about it though.
In this episode of Staying Aligned, Jamie explores life purpose through Ikigai, creativity, motherhood, work, hobbies, spirituality, and the ordinary things we dismiss because they don’t seem important enough to qualify. From the wildly talented painter who happens to be Jamie’s dentist to the person genuinely thrilled about the tomato growing in their backyard, this is an argument for recognizing that scale is not significance.
You’ll learn why purpose doesn’t have to be your career, why joy is worth paying attention to, how purpose can change throughout your life, and why you may already be living yours.
If you’ve ever wondered, What is my purpose? What should I be doing with my life? or Why does everyone else seem to have this figured out? — start here.
