“What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.” Victor Frankl

We all want to feel like our life has meaning. It is a deep human need that creates a void when our life feels like it lacks purpose. This desire for meaning crosses through every life station, regardless of economic status, life condition, or level of adversity. Whether you spend your days caring for children, struggling to stay alive from health issues, or have a bustlin EVERYONE wants meaning.

In this episode, we explore how to intentionally cultivate meaning in our life. We dive into Dr. Victor Frankl’s advice of finding meaning through deets, experience, and even suffering itself.
