In this engaging episode of Money Talk With Tiff, host Tiffany Grant welcomes back Dr. Jordan Grumet, also fondly known as Doc G, to discuss his latest book, The Purpose Code. Previously featured on episode 322 where they explored the concept of "Redefining Rich" through Dr. Grumet’s experiences as a hospice doctor, this episode shifts focus to understanding and creating one's purpose.

Dr. Grumet delves into what he calls "purpose anxiety", the struggle many face in finding their purpose and how it can lead to anxiety and depression. He unpacks his approach to solving this paradox by advocating for an active creation of purpose rather than searching endlessly for it. Tiffany and Dr. Grumet talk about identifying "purpose anchors," small activities or interests that bring joy and meaning on a daily basis.

Throughout the conversation, they touch upon practical strategies to find these purpose anchors, how to overcome common obstacles in the journey of creating purpose, and how societal pressures can often derail us from our authentic paths.
