Today’s episode is about the profound and sometimes challenging topic of purpose. Have you ever felt unsure about your life’s direction or struggled to define your “why”? In this episode, Dr. Jordan Grumet, a hospice physician, author, and host of the Earn & Invest Podcast, shares insights from his latest book, The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy.
