Podcast appearances and mentions of jordan grumet

Hospice doctor, podcaster, and author Jordan Grumet joins us to explore why the traditional idea of “finding your purpose” might actually be making us miserable. Drawing from his work with patients at the end of life, Jordan challenges the pressure to chase big, lofty goals—or what he calls “big P” Purpose—and instead invites us to embrace “little p” purposes: the simple, joyful activities that ground us and connect us to others. From childhood passions to quiet regrets, Jordan shares practical ways to identify what truly lights you up and how to build a life that feels meaningful—without overhauling everything.

Drawing on insights from his work in hospice care and financial independence advocacy, Dr. Grumet challenges the notion that physicians are profit-driven, emphasizing that purpose, not money, sustains medical practice. He cites the Harvard Adult Development Study, which shows interpersonal connections, not wealth, drive happiness, and argues that physicians persist through burnout due to a deep sense of purpose. To counter third-party exploitation by pharmaceutical companies, insurance firms, and private equity, he advocates for “shared storytelling” to close the intimacy gap between providers and patients. By sharing personal struggles publicly through blogs, podcasts, and poetry, physicians can rebuild allyship with patients, fostering a healthcare revolution to demand legislative change. Dr. Grumet's upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores these themes, urging providers to humanize their profession.Three Actionable Takeaways:Share Personal Stories Publicly – Use blogs, podcasts, or public speaking to share the emotional challenges of medicine, fostering empathy and trust with patients outside the exam room.Reframe Physician Motivation – When accused of being profit-driven, highlight data showing most physicians earn minimal pharmaceutical payments (less than $1,000 annually), emphasizing purpose over profit.Advocate for Systemic Change – Unite with patients to push for legislative reforms that curb third-party exploitation, such as insulin price caps, to improve healthcare access and affordability.About the Show:The Physician's Guide to Doctoring covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Jordan Grumet is a board-certified internal medicine and hospice physician, also known in financial independence circles as Doc G. He is the author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life and The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy. His upcoming book, set for release in September 2025, explores third-party exploitation in healthcare and the power of shared storytelling. A blogger, poet, and speaker, he advocates for purpose-driven medicine to restore public trust.LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/jordan-grumet-38a506179Website: https://jordangrumet.com/Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ng/podcast/earn-invest/id1440355498About the host:Dr. Bradley Block – Dr. Bradley Block is a board-certified otolaryngologist at ENT and Allergy Associates in Garden City, NY.

In this episode, hospice physician and author Jordan Grumet shares what he's learned from those at the end of life—and why our culture's definition of purpose may be all wrong.

Feeling anxious about where your money's going? You're not alone—and you're not without a plan. In today's episode, Joe is joined by OG, Mom's neighbor Doug, and two sharp minds from the personal finance world: Paula Pant from Afford Anything and Dr. Jordan Grumet from Earn and Invest. Together, they take a deep dive into the many faces of investment risk, from the obvious to the overlooked. Because when it comes to your financial future, the real danger isn't just volatility—it's misunderstanding the terrain. Whether you're dipping a toe into international markets, piling into real estate, or wondering if your long-term plan can survive a little inflation, this episode will help you better understand the risks that matter—and avoid the ones that don't.

What happens when the career you built your life around stops feeling like it fits? Today, I'm talking to Jordan Grummet about what it really looks like to wrestle with purpose—especially during big life transitions like retirement.   Jordan opens up about losing his father at a young age, pursuing medicine to honor his legacy, and eventually realizing that career wasn't fulfilling him. We covered the struggle between societal expectations and our own authentic path, and how to find meaning after a life-altering shift.   Jordan, an author and host of the Earn & Invest podcast, brings a perspective shaped by both his work in hospice care and his own experience of stepping away from a path that no longer felt right.   It's a conversation about what happens when we let go of old identities and start figuring out what comes next. In this episode, you'll hear: Why purpose feels like such a monumental challenge in retirement Jordan's story of legacy, loss, and what medicine couldn't give him The slow burn of professional misalignment and how he woke up to it How powerful external voices influence our life choices The Purpose Code path forward into a more meaningful second act   Resources jordangrumet.com The Purpose Code  

"Not a single person on their deathbed says, 'I really wanted to get to a net worth of $1.5 million and I only got to 1 million, and I'm so upset.'" Dr. Jordan Grumet, author of "The Purpose Code," challenges us to rethink what truly matters when it comes to money and purpose.Jordan found his path to medicine after losing his father unexpectedly, and this personal experience gave him a unique perspective that now shapes how he helps others think about wealth, purpose, and what truly matters.This week on the podcast, Jordan, a hospice doctor, shares what people actually regret at the end of their lives (hint: it's never about not having enough money). Instead, they wish they had found the courage to pursue experiences and activities that lit them up.We explore the difference between "big P purpose" (those anxiety-inducing, goal-oriented dreams) and "little p purpose" (the everyday activities that bring us joy and fulfillment). Jordan explains why focusing on the process rather than the outcome often leads to more satisfaction.For financial coaches, this conversation offers a great perspective on how to help clients balance their pursuit of financial goals with living purposefully today. Jordan challenges the idea that spending money must always have a direct financial ROI and suggests instead that "happy money comes in, and then it behooves you to put happy money back out there."Whether you're a financial coach looking to better serve your clients or someone searching for more meaning in your own life, this conversation will help you rethink your approach to purpose and wealth.Links & Resources:Ultimate Growth GuideJoin the Facebook groupThe Purpose Code by Dr. Jordan Grumet Visit Dr. Jordan Grumet's website  Listen to Earn and InvestHappy Money by Ken HondaKey Takeaways:Purpose isn't something you find after achieving financial goals—it's what you create through small, everyday activities that light you up.Check your calendar: Are most entries activities you loathe or activities that energize you? Your answer reveals how purposeful your life truly is.Money isn't the goal; it's simply a tool to help you spend more time doing things that matter and less time doing things you hate.No one on their deathbed regrets not reaching a higher net worth—they regret not having the courage to pursue experiences that mattered to them.When clients say "I want financial freedom," ask "why?" repeatedly until you uncover the real purpose they're seeking beneath the numbers.The achievement treadmill keeps you chasing bigger goals while never feeling "enough"—step off by finding joy in the process rather than fixating on outcomes.Little purpose creates big happiness when it connects you with others—the strongest predictor of a fulfilled life isn't wealth but meaningful relationships.

Jim chats with Dr. Jordan Grumet, AKA: Doc G. to explore the themes of entrepreneurship, financial independence, and the FIRE movement. Follow along as we discuss the journey from following traditional career paths to pursuing passions, and the importance of purpose over mere financial goals. Doc G shares insights from his personal experiences as a hospice physician turned blogger, podcaster, and author. He emphasizes the need for a balanced approach to life that integrates purpose, happiness, and financial wellness. Doc G shares his concepts of meaning and purpose, emphasizing the importance of personal narratives in shaping our happiness. He distinguishes between Big P and Little P purposes, advocating for a more process-oriented approach to fulfillment. Discover the significance of community and connection in achieving happiness, and how to address the common anxiety surrounding one's search for purpose. Ultimately, Doc G encourages listeners to engage in activities that light them up, suggesting that true fulfillment comes from enjoying the process rather than fixating on audacious goals.GUEST BIO: Doc G's interest in becoming a doctor ignited when his father, an oncologist, died unexpectedly in the prime of life. This profound and life-shaping boyhood loss compelled him to dedicate his early career to the art of medicine. He was an Assistant Professor, first at Northwestern University and then at The University of Chicago. He has been a medical director of several nursing homes, started multiple palliative care programs in extended care facilities, and is an associate medical director for a hospice provider. After shaping his personal finance plan around the FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement, Doc G began a new chapter by becoming semi-retired by the age of 45. Today in addition to his work as a hospice doctor, he intertwines medical insight and financial wisdom in writing and speaking engagements that explore the topics of wealth, abundance, and financial independence to help people live meaningful lives. He publishes the Earn and Invest podcast about personal finance and wellness, and has also run several small businesses including a concierge medical practice, an online art gallery, and is the author of two books, including his latest The Purpose Code, How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacy, published in January 2025.Connect & Learn Morehttps://jordangrumet.com/https://www.earnandinvest.com/The Purpose Code – How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, and Leave a Lasting Legacyhttps://amzn.to/4hizM6BTaking Stock – A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Lifehttps://amzn.to/4kOj2HtRESOURCESHappiness = Freedom + Meaningfulness on RVE #383https://therventrepreneur.com/rve383/Early Retirement Nowhttps://earlyretirementnow.com/The Skeptic's Guide to FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early)https://nickwolny.com/financial-independence-guide~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~THE RV ENTREPRENEURhttps://therventrepreneur.com~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Join the RVE community on Facebook!⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/therventrepreneurcommunity⁠Connect with RVE on all your favorite socials⁠https://therventrepreneur.com/connect⁠⁠Got questions or comments for our hosts?

In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Jennifer Reid speaks with Dr. Jordan Grumet, hospice physician, writer, and podcast host, as he shares his journey. At age 7, Dr. Grumet lost his father, an oncologist, to a brain aneurysm, and he became determined to become a doctor himself. However, despite achieving his goal, Dr. Grumet experienced burnout when he realized that becoming a doctor couldn't "cosmically make up" for his father's death.Drawing from his experiences as a hospice physician, he offers profound insights on distinguishing between meaning and purpose, overcoming burnout, and creating a life that genuinely "lights you up."Key Points* Meaning vs. Purpose:* Meaning: How we cognitively understand our past; the stories we tell ourselves* Purpose: Actions in the present and future that "light us up"* Finding Your Purpose: Look for "purpose anchors" - activities and experiences that energize and fulfill you* The Art of Subtraction: Remove elements from your life that don't bring joy to discover what remains that does* Generational Growth: Breaking cycles of expectation to model authenticity for the next generation* Achieving Impact: Dr. Grumet found that pursuing what truly energized him (writing and podcasting) ultimately allowed him to help more people than his medical practiceNotable Quotes"Purpose is about the present and future, and it's about actions. All it is is about things that light you up. If you're trying to get more out of purpose than that, then you really don't have a purpose problem. You have a meaning problem.""Happy people tend to tell themselves heroic stories about their past. They see their traumas, they see their difficulties, and they see that they heroically got through them.""You can't purpose your way to enough. That's a meaning problem. That's a going back and dealing with your childhood problem.""All you have control over, the one measly thing we can control is what activities are we involved with as time passes.""I've really spent a lot of time thinking about what winning the game when it comes to life looks like... winning the game is as you get older, from the day you're born to the day you die, basically you want to be looking at your calendar... and you want to add in as many purposeful, joyful things that light you up into those time slots of your life.""When people see you doing things authentic to you, you are giving them permission."About Dr. Jordan GrumetDr. Jordan Grumet is a physician, writer, and host of the popular Earn and Invest podcast. He currently serves as the Associate Medical Director at Unity Hospice. His latest book, The Purpose Code, shares key life lessons learned from working with individuals in their final months of life.Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own and listening to The Reflective Mind Podcast!

Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco, says she is still holding to the optimistic scenarios she had entering 2025, but she acknowledges that the potential for a recession grows by the day, given tariffs, a potential resurgence in inflation, fiscal pressures resulting in cuts to government spending and more. Still, Hooper's base case remains positive and she warns that investors can't afford to get spooked out of the market by short-term temporary declines. Jordan Grumet of the "Earn and Invest" podcast, discusses his new book,  "The Purpose Code: How to Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness and Leave a Lasting Legacy," plus Aaron Schumm of Vestwell talks about how consumers and workers can improve their savings — and American could make a dent into its savings crisis — by using new platforms that allow money to be set aside not just into retirement plans but for college savings, emergency funds, health care and more.  

We've all had jobs we didn't want. I just never considered the idea that doctors might feel that way, too. We tend to elevate them to some higher status, but they're human, too. In today's episode, I uncover Jordan Grumet's incredible journey from a burned-out physician to a fired-up, purpose-driven author and speaker. He opened up about how he escaped the identity trap of his medical career and built a life he loves.  Jordan shares why loving the process matters more than chasing achievements and how anyone can create a meaningful, fulfilling retirement. Plus, we explore his new book, The Purpose Code, and break down how to stop overthinking purpose and start living it.

Why do so many in early retirement struggle with happiness? We know you've told yourself, “Once I hit FIRE, I'll be living the dream! Every day will be like a vacation.” This is what Mindy was telling herself for years before becoming financially independent, and once she hit her goal, she realized life's same problems still exist. If you're FI already, this may sound familiar. So, how do you enjoy the path to early retirement so that when you reach your financial goal, the party doesn't stop? Jordan Grumet, AKA Doc G, practiced full-time medicine for years but wasn't completely satisfied, even with financial success. After reflecting on his “purpose,” he found that hospice medicine brought him true fulfillment. Through conversations with patients on their deathbeds, Jordan uncovered a common thread: most regrets stemmed from not living a purposeful life, regardless of financial achievement. In his new book, The Purpose Code, Jordan walks you through exercises that uncover your view on purpose, success, financial freedom, and what it means to truly “win” in life. His goal? Make sure you enjoy every day on the path to financial freedom so that when you get there, you know exactly how to live the life you love. If you want to reach FIRE happy, less stressed, and full of energy to live your early retirement life, we've got what the doctor ordered. In This Episode We Cover Why even the wealthiest people in the world are still so unhappy (and what they're missing) Why money is NOT the only tool you can use to find lifelong happiness  The four “anchors” you can use to find your life's purpose before it's too late How to enjoy the path to financial freedom without burning out or pushing through unhappiness The number one thing in life that leads to humans being happy (it's completely free) And So Much More!

What's your purpose now? It's a big question, an important one - and one that many people get stuck on when they retire. Dr. Jordan Grumet believes we need to change how we think about purpose. He rejoins us to discuss his new book The Purpose Code: How to unlock meaning, maximize happiness, and leave a lasting legacy. Jordan Grumet joins us from Illinois. _________________________ Bio Jordan Grumet, born in Evanston, Illinois in 1973, found the spark to become a doctor after a deeply personal event reshaped his life's trajectory. The unexpected loss of his father, an oncologist, ignited a passion within him to practice medicine and instilled a unique vantage point that later melded seamlessly with his financial expertise. This convergence of roles has spurred him to explore profound notions like wealth, abundance, and financial independence with a thoughtful and critical lens. Completing his studies at the University of Michigan, Jordan earned his medical degree from Northwestern University before embarking on a journey in Internal Medicine in Northbrook, Illinois. Presently, he serves as an associate medical director at Unity Hospice. With a profound understanding of both medicine and finance, Jordan unveiled his thoughts through blogging, specifically focusing on financial independence and wellness. This passion culminated in the launch of the Earn & Invest podcast in 2018. His dedication bore fruit in 2019 when he was honored with the Plutus Award for Best New Personal Finance Podcast, followed by consecutive nominations for Best Personal Finance Podcast of the year in 2020 and 2021. In August 2022, Jordan's literary pursuit took shape as his book, Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life, was published by Ulysses Press. His second book, The Purpose Code, was published by Harriman House Press. Jordan's journey intertwines medical insight and financial wisdom, resonating deeply with those seeking a balanced, meaningful life. _________________________ For More on Dr. Jordan Grumet The Purpose Code Website Our first podcast conversation with Jordan Grumet on Taking Stock _______________________ Podcast Episodes You May Like Retiring: Creating a Life That Works for You – Teresa Amabile Living Like You Mean It – Jodi Wellman _______________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

About Retirement Wisdom I help people who are retiring, but aren't quite done yet, discover what's next and build their custom version of their next life. A meaningful retirement doesn't just happen by accident. Schedule a call today to discuss how The Designing Your Life process created by Bill Burnett & Dave Evans can help you make your life in retirement a great one – on your own terms. __________________________ Wise Quotes On Purpose "The studies show that purpose in life is associated with health, happiness, and longevity, very clearly in tons of studies. On the other hand, I found other studies that show that up to 91% of people get anxious when it comes to purpose at least some point in their life, they feel frustrated and thwarted and depressed. And so the big question is how could it be both? And what I really came to the conclusion is purpose is not one thing but two. And one of those versions of purpose, what I call big P purpose, is more associated with anxiety while the other, what I call little p purpose, is probably more associated with that happiness, longevity, and health. And so I wrote this book to help people pursue that better version of purpose." On Purpose Anchors

Jordan Grumet, AKA Doc G, returns to the podcast to share the difference between “Big P Purpose” and “little p purpose” and why you should pursue the seemingly less significant latter. Bringing together his experience in hospice care and finance, Jordan shines light on how we can create our purpose through personal growth and the pursuit of passions, rather than grandiose goals. Jordan calls these activities that bring joy "purpose anchors," which can be discovered through reflection and exploration. By engaging in these meaningful pursuits, individuals create positive ripple effects, fostering generational growth and leaving lasting legacies. This reframing of purpose as a process-driven journey encourages embracing life's uncertainties and finding fulfillment in the present. If you're hard at work, saving and investing, and still feeling uncertain about what it's all for, this is the perfect episode for you. Jordan brings actionable advice to big questions. Key Takeaways: • What's all this financial planning really for? • The difference between “big P Purpose” and “little p purpose”, and why you should pursue the latter. • How thinking about your regrets, the joys of childhood, and work can help you develop a purpose. • Engaging in your purpose each day, no matter how insignificant it may seem at the time, will change the world. • How “money scripts” pass on from generation to generation. • Don't worry about legacy, just do things that light you up.

#572: At age 7, Dr. Jordan Grumet lost his father. This early loss shaped his career path — he became a physician, following in his dad's footsteps. But by 2010, feeling burned out from internal medicine, he took an unexpected turn: he became a hospice doctor. In this episode, Dr. Grumet joins us to discuss what he's learned from thousands of conversations with people in their final days.  These discussions have revealed a pattern: people don't typically regret their bank balance on their deathbed. Instead, they regret not pursuing the activities and dreams that truly lit them up. Dr. Grumet explains the difference between what he calls "Big P Purpose" versus "little p purpose." Big P Purpose involves major life goals like becoming president or curing cancer. Little p purpose, by contrast, focuses on the process — finding activities you enjoy regardless of the outcome.  He shares the story of a young professional who loved competitive cycling. While working a demanding nonprofit job, this person started fixing bikes at races on weekends. This side project combined his skills and passion, eventually creating enough income for him to reduce his full-time hours. Dr. Grumet introduces three key concepts for building more purpose into your life: - Joy of Addition: Add activities that excite you, even if just for 15 minutes daily - Art of Subtraction: Remove activities that drain you - Substitution: When you can't add or subtract, swap one activity for another He emphasizes that money isn't the only tool for creating change. Youth, energy, relationships, skills and community can be equally valuable resources. A 22-year-old might lack funds but has the advantage of time and stamina that a 51-year-old doesn't possess. Dr. Grumet references the Harvard Adult Developmental Health Study, which found that strong relationships — not achievements or money — most strongly correlate with happiness. He suggests that pursuing activities you enjoy naturally leads to building these vital connections. The episode closes with a powerful story about his grandfather, who loved math and became an accountant in the 1950s.  This passion influenced Dr. Grumet's mother to become a CPA, which in turn helped young Jordan develop confidence in math, despite his reading challenges. Years later, this mathematical thinking helped him diagnose a rabbi's rare condition — proving how small actions can create ripple effects across generations.

In this inspiring episode of the Hardcore Self Help Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jordan Grumet, a hospice director, author, and podcast host, to explore how we can transform our lives by embracing the concept of “little p purpose.” Dr. Grumet shares insights from his latest book, The Purpose Code, which offers actionable strategies to uncover and build a meaningful life, regardless of your circumstances. Our conversation dives deep into the difference between “big P Purpose” (society's lofty, often unattainable ideals) and “little p purpose” (daily actions that bring joy and meaning). Dr. Grumet shares his personal journey—from losing his father at a young age to becoming a physician driven by unresolved trauma, to ultimately finding fulfillment by pursuing his passions for writing, speaking, and connecting with others. Key takeaways from our discussion include practical ways to recognize your purpose anchors, how to turn regrets into motivations, and why pursuing joy in small, intentional ways can lead to profound impact and lasting legacy. We also explore how Dr. Grumet's work in hospice has shaped his understanding of what truly matters in life, highlighting lessons from those at the end of their journeys. This episode is packed with wisdom for anyone feeling stuck, searching for meaning, or simply looking to live with more intentionality and joy.

Today we are talking about finding balance in our lives. We discuss how to know what our risk tolerance is both in the finance space but also in our lifestyle. It is important to do the things we love that bring us joy, even if there is some risk involved. But at what point do we cross into reckless?

The untimely passing of his father, an oncologist, sparked his journey towards a medical career. He completed his studies at the University of Michigan and earned his medical degree from Northwestern University. This path led him to specialize in Internal Medicine and ultimately to provide compassionate care for the terminally ill in hospice. His unique blend of medical expertise and financial acumen culminated in the 2022 publication of “Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life”. Jordan's work weaves together medicine, finance, and the significance of purpose, making a profound impact on those seeking a meaningful life.

In the last episode with Dr Jordan Grumet he differentiated small-p purpose from big-P purpose. And put most of the emphasis on small-p purpose, which is the daily activities that truly light you up. This is where I want to focus right now. What lights you up? What gives you energy? What inspires you? But don't jump to your appetites. I imagine like you, I have a lot of things that are a pleasure for me. A dopamine hit. I appreciate those things greatly. But that's not what we are talking about here. Think about it this way; you have apps on your phone that give you a dopamine hit. Social media or games. They are fine. But as you are playing them, you deplete the battery on your phone. What “lights up your phone” is plugging it in. So we're looking for the things that you participate in that charge you up. What Jordan is leading us to is the massive value of these activities. Let's help understand these better. You can find Jordan Grumet at the Earn & Invest Podcast and his new book and our muse here is The Purpose Code: How To Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, And Leave A Lasting Legacy.

In this episode of ChooseFI, co-host Brad sits down with Jordan Grumet, author of The Purpose Code, to discuss the crucial differences between "big P" purpose and "little p" purpose. They explore how identifying small, meaningful activities can bring joy and fulfillment to life. Jordan elaborates on turning regrets and childhood joys into "purpose anchors" and emphasizes actionable strategies to create a life filled with purpose through clarity, agency, and incremental changes. Key Topics Discussed: Introduction to Jordan Grumet and The Purpose Code (00:00:00) Brad introduces Jordan and discusses the significance of his upcoming book. Understanding Little P Purpose vs. Big P Purpose (00:01:43) Big P purpose is goal-oriented and often feels like a scarcity mindset, whereas little p purpose is about engaging in activities that bring joy without the pressure of specific goals. Little p purpose focuses on enjoyment and engagement rather than large achievements; every step counts.

Purpose is one of the most overused topics in the self-improvement world. Everyone is talking about it. But as we look at the culture, we see more apathy and depression then ever. It's similar to all the talk on being healthy and happy and we are just getting sicker and sadder. Why? With purpose, why are we constantly talking about it but not finding and experiencing it? I have with me, Jordan Grumet, and you are about to hear a very different look at what purpose is and how we can start experiencing much more of our purpose. Jordan is a medical doctor turned hospice doc. He is host of the Earn & Invest Podcast. He's author of Taking Stock: A Hospice Doctor's Advice on Financial Independence, Building Wealth, and Living a Regret-Free Life, the book that landed him here on my show the first time. Now he is back with a new book titled, The Purpose Code: How To Unlock Meaning, Maximize Happiness, And Leave A Lasting Legacy. And we breakdown and dissect purpose. What it is, why we are missing it as a culture, and I'll give you what to me is the big takeaway, right here in the intro: you will find much more of your purpose in the day to day activities that light you up, than pursuing the big, grand purpose of saving the world. It's a very different approach to purpose that I found to be much more relevant, realistic, and attainable.

In this episode we are joined by the multi-talented Jordan Grumet, a hospice doctor, storyteller, and the host of the award-winning 'Earn & Invest' podcast. Jordan shares insights from his latest book, 'The Purpose Code', diving deep into the nuances of Big 'P' vs Little 'p' purpose, legacy, and finding true happiness.

This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast we have a returning guest, Jordan Grumet, a financial independence and wellness expert, discussing his new book, "The Purpose Code," which explores the concept of purpose in our lives. He differentiates between "little p" purpose, which is process-oriented and joyful, and "big P" purpose, which is goal-oriented and often stressful. Jordan emphasizes that true happiness and impact come from engaging in activities that bring joy, rather than striving for grand achievements. He also addresses the misconception that lack of time or money prevents one from finding purpose, suggesting that youth, energy, and community can be leveraged. Jordan advocates for building a life of purposeful activities, which in turn fosters deeper connections and long-term impact. In this episode, Jordan discusses: His transition from being a hospice doctor to focusing on understanding and helping others find their purpose. The difference between meaning and purpose and why purpose is a key ingredient of happiness. How to identify and build purpose anchors through methods like life reviews, subtraction, revisiting childhood joys, and experimenting with the spaghetti method.  Why parenting is a responsibility and it shouldn't be one's sole purpose + why focusing on one's own purpose sets a positive example for children & leads to generational growth.

Does it feel like your life is on hold until you figure out your purpose? What's the real reason many folks are driven to be wealthy? And why do so many “successful” people feel burned out and empty? Dr Jordan Grumet returns to The New Man to discuss what many believe is the key to their fulfillment — purpose. He's got a unique experience of being a doctor who helps people at the end of their lives, and he's also a popular financial podcast host. This means he sees the gap between what is driving so many of us to be wealthy and what really matters. He's written a new book called The Purpose Code that I love. It strips away the magical thinking BS and drills down to reveal what purpose and meaning really are. The result is a framework we can all use to do more of what we love, spend time with the people we love, and enjoy the precious time we have on this planet.   https://www.thenewmanpodcast.com/2024/12/purpose-code-jordan-grumet   COACHING   → To learn more about coaching with Tripp Lanier visit https://TrippLanier.com → To learn more about working with Alyson Lanier visit https://AlysonLanier.com   BOOK   → We live in a world with more possibilities than ever before.

Is your "purpose" making you anxious? Do you feel like everyone online is "living their best life" except for you? Then you've come to the right place. It's January and you're probably knee-deep in resolutions that may or may not last past the first week. But forget the trendy diets and the overly ambitious gym routines. This year, we're going deeper and talking about a purpose reboot - not the "new you" version fueled by fleeting motivation, but the kind built on self-awareness, intentional choices, and a healthy dose of skepticism about the pressures to optimize our lives. This week, we sit down with the brilliant Dr. Jordan Grumet (aka Doc G) to talk about his latest book "The Purpose Code." Jordan, a former hospice doctor and a 90s hip-hop head, is not here for the fluffy, Instagrammable version of purpose. He's no stranger to the intersection of hard choices and meaning and he's here to break down what actually makes life feel meaningful.We dive into:The “Big P” purpose trap (think: social media, fame, riches, etc.) and why it might be sabotaging your happiness.The secret sauce of "Little P" purpose (think: the things that actually make you feel alive)How religion and social media can be both a blessing and a curse in the purpose departmentWhy you need to be the hero in your story, not the victim of your pastHow to use your money as a tool for fulfillment, not a checklist of achievementsThe parental purpose myth (this one is controversial, y'all)What real legacy looks like…is our legacy up to us to decide? Or is it a story that will be told by the generations that follow?Links: Buy Jordan's latest book The Purpose Code Listen to The Earn & Invest podcast or join the Facebook group Connect with Julien and Kiersten on our website, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube.Join our email list to get updates from us, opportunities for discounts, freebies and a quick rundown on the relevant financial and career news impacting your life.
