Podcast 59: Creative Deja Vu - Finding Your Purpose When Everything's Already Said


Listen Later

This week’s podcast talks about the existential dilemma of feeling that all meaningful thoughts and expressions have already been articulated throughout history.. I talk about the common human experience of searching for life’s purpose, often feeling pressured by societal expectations to achieve specific milestones. But I say that life inherently lacks one fixed, overarching purpose. Instead, I encourage people to discover and redefine their personal purpose repeatedly throughout their lives, and that these purposes can be as simple as making coffee or as ambitious as starting a business, and are subject to change. It’s important to live boldly and embrace mistakes and contribute their unique perspectives even if the core ideas aren’t entirely new.

Loved this episode? You can find extra goodies, gentle tools, and printable doses of wonder over in my Ko-fi shop. You can also buy me a coffee to help support me. Every purchase supports this quiet corner of the internet and helps keep the podcast going. Thank you for being here. 💛
