How to Live

#085 Meaning & Success with Fabrice Desmarescaux


Listen Later

Feeling stuck? You might be looking in the wrong place.

When we hit a crossroads, our instinct is to look outward - more advice, more inspiration, more answers. But here's the plot twist: the most powerful guidance system isn't out there. It's your own story.

Our lives leave breadcrumbs - moments that light us up, decisions that felt right in our bones, and work that made time disappear. These aren't random. They're clues to what's next.

In the latest episode of How to Live, I sit down with Fabrice Desmarescaux, who walked away from his McKinsey partnership to pursue something that called him deeper. Through reflection and mindful exploration, he discovered that purpose isn't a destination - it's a trail of discoveries.

We dive into: 

✨ How to read the breadcrumbs of your past to shape your future 

✨ Why most big decisions are rarely permanent (and why that's liberating) 

✨ The sweet spot between ambition and self-awareness that creates lasting fulfillment

The path forward isn't about perfect clarity - it's about curiosity and courage.
