Today I am interviewing a man and woman from Louisiana who had it all – well-paying jobs and a magnificent house on a private 110-acre lake. But, they gave it all up to enjoy a life of adventure and helping others.

Don read a study recently that suggested 75% of people are disengaged at work, and that often comes back to a lack of purpose.

The trip was not only an adventure, but kind of a pilgrimage, both spiritually and physically, to overcome some things that had taken control of Perry's life.

When Mike felt depressed and unfulfilled in his work, he began a habit to create something new every day for a year until he renewed his purpose.

David is a visionary who saw a flaw in the way people were living their lives, and developed a mission to help them alter their trajectory to enjoy happier, more fulfilling lives by helping others around them.

Tim explained a transition doesn’t signal that your purpose in life is coming to an end. Rather, it’s going in a different direction.

What I liked about the Clements’ story is that they did not wait until they had permission from society to “retire” before launching out on a lifestyle of travel.

When she was younger, Andrea was given a lot of career and life advice from people who never bothered to ask what she was passionate about doing. Being over 50 is when people can finally do things they put on the back burner decades ago.

When Phyllis described receiving a “God assignment,” it was a specific mission that took into account her natural skills, learned talents and various life experiences, but with a sense of urgency.

Nick is authentic in his videos. Rather than adopting a “Hey, look at me, I’m amazing and wonderful,” approach to online content creation, Nick says, “Hey, I found this to be fun and interesting, and I think you’d enjoy it, too.”
