Podcasts about quest that will bring purpose

Step into the world of eudaimonia with us, Sami Kinnison and Angela Belford. The ancient wisdom encapsulated in this enduring philosophy, handed down from Socrates and Aristotle, extends beyond mere happiness—it's a pursuit, a journey towards life satisfaction. And we promise you, in this episode, you'll discover how relevant this age-old concept still is, how it's essential for living a well-intentioned life, and how it continually nudges us to learn, grow, and evolve. We also set sail on a voyage of self-discovery, sharing insights on how understanding oneself can lead to joy and fulfillment. We face off against the inner critic, a nemesis that can often create roadblocks on our path, and explore how to tackle it with confidence. In the pursuit of personal fulfillment, we highlight the transformative power of hobbies—how they can be a conduit to explore our passions, sharpen our skills, and most importantly, bring joy. From discussing the pursuit of meaningful goals to sharing our excitement for the inspirational book 'Traveling Light,' we invite you to join us on this enriching exploration of self-discovery, personal fulfillment, and the pursuit of eudaimonia. Tune in and begin your pursuit of a well-rounded life.Mentioned in the episode:"Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art" by James Nestor"The Happiness of Pursuit: Finding the Quest That Will Bring Purpose to Your Life" by Chris GuillebeauCatherine Moore, P.

Chris Guillebeau is a writer, traveler, and entrepreneur. In 2013 he completed a 10-year quest to visit every country in the world before his 35th birthday. Every summer in Portland, Oregon he hosts the World Domination Summit, a gathering of creative, remarkable people. His new book, “Born for This,” will help you find the work you were meant to do. In this episode, Chris and Stacy discuss building a business that truly fits the life you want to lead and some of the options that you have. You don’t need your business to reflect anyone’s ideals but your own! Some highlights include: “I was 19, and I didn’t want to work for anyone else.” At minute 1:00, Chris talks about jumping into entrepreneurship because he wanted to work but didn’t want a boss. He also talks about how his career has evolved since that time. People have different learning styles. At minute 8:00, Chris talks about why a formal mentorship might not be the best strategy for every person starting a business. Have a healthy life and do work you love doing. At minute 10:00, Chris talks about why work-life balance is a great thing to strive for but might not exist in exactly the ways we think of because the term has been co-opted by corporations. “I don’t have any desire to have a lot of employees.” At minute 15:00, Chris talks about why he keeps his team small and how they are able to put on World Domination Summit by adding a team for that event only. Forge your own destiny. At minute 20:00, Chris talks about why he loves being an entrepreneur and the challenges that come along with it.

  5 Unconventional Ways to Find Your Purpose   Joseph Campbell reminds us that if we follow our own bliss, doors will open that will lead us down our path on purpose. He said, “When you follow your bliss... doors will open where you would not have thought there would be doors; and where there wouldn't be a door for anyone else.”   But you can't find your purpose. It's not out there. Your purpose has been with you all along. It's deep inside you.   To help you unlock the potential inside of you, here are five unconventional ways to find your purpose. They stem from ancient wisdom and modern science and they all have one thing in common. It's not so much what's outside of you, but how to unlock what's already inside of you. Past-Life Regressions   After graduating from Yale, Dr. Brian Weiss began his psychotherapy practice. However, through using hypnosis to help his patients unlock repressed memories, he found that his patients began speaking about realities that were very different from the present one they lived in.   Under hypnosis, patients would speak about being a different gender or race along with the odd ability to speak languages the present-day patient did not know. They even spoke in detail about past-life trauma which Dr. Weiss argues has helped many patients overcome present-life trauma.   While all of this can quickly be brushed off as non-scientific nonsense, modern-day connections with the Internet allow patients who practice past-life regressions to actually research and look up the visions they have while under hypnosis.   The language that one would speak under hypnosis would actually be an ancient language. Buildings and structures that a patient may envision would actually exist in present time. Some patients have even contacted present-day family members and shared intimate family secrets after experiencing a past-life as their ancestor.   Dr. Weiss explains that experiencing past-life regressions allow a person to understand the lessons they learned in their past lives. And through these lessons, a person can deepen their understanding of what they are meant to learn right here, right now, in the present life.   2. Meditation   Yes. Meditation. It's not just for grounding and calming. It's for centering and understanding who you are as a being. It's for digging deep into your inner pysche. A daily meditation practice helps one recognize their thought patterns. They learn to identify what is serving them, what is clearly not and how to live more in the present. After establishing a steady practice, practitioners take the lessons learned in meditation into their daily lives. Side effects include having less water-cooler conversations and more meaningful dialogue along with living your life on purpose. The conversations you choose to have and the actions you choose to take will be more intentional.     As Pema Chodron reminds us, “Meditation is a work in progress, a process of uncovering our natural openness, uncovering our natural intelligence and warmth.”   3. Ayahuasca Deep in the heart of the Amazon lies a spirit vine that has caught the attention of medical researchers, shamans, and spiritual seekers for centuries. Known affectionately as plant medicine, Ayahuasca has been known to take participants on a deep introspective experience.   Through this psychedelic discovery, many have claimed Ayahuasca to be exponentially more effective than traditional psychotherapy. Michael Sanders, author of Ayahuasca: An Executive's Enlightenment says that many Westerners have called Ayahuasca “30 years of psychotherapy in a cup.”   Here's a bit of what Michael had to say when we sat down to chat about his book:   One seed of advice. Be very careful and research where you choose to have an Ayahusaca experience, says Jeffrey Slayter, founder of The Grand Initiative which takes high-level influencers on an Ayahuasca experience to deepen their understanding of the self, unleash dormant creativity, and further connect one to the planet.   Here is a list of resources to find a safe facility for Ayahuasca, says Jeffrey Slayter.   4. Gene Keys   Richard Rudd, author of Gene Keys, dives deep into ancient wisdom to help people discover the hidden purpose that lies in our DNA.   Rudd explains that The Gene Keys help to “shed light on your deepest potential by helping you to embrace your shadows and recognize your gifts.” You learn your strengths, your weaknesses, and learn how to effectively harness your ability to live extraordinarily.   Through this heightened level of awareness, a person can confidently walk down their independent path. So often we just need to get out of our own way and Rudd provides one avenue to unleash our creative potential..   5. Pursuing a Quest   Chris Guillebeau explains that a quest is not so much an external discovery, but rather an internal heroic journey.   In his book, The Happiness of Pursuit: Finding the Quest That Will Bring Purpose to Your Life, Guillebeau shares the stories of people he has met on his personal quest of traveling to every country in the world. All the stories entail the journey one takes on their personal quest: the hardships, the breakthroughs, and the lessons one learns when they embark on their heroic journey. Many questers start out seeking an external answer, but what many find out, however, is that their quest for their holy grail (so to speak) has taught them more about themselves than anything else. Through a quest, you face your deepest fears and realize that you are capable of far more than you can imagine.   --   The truth is, now that you can learn anything, you can be anything you want to. It's a beautiful time to be alive and a perfect time for you to walk your own heroic path.   Of course, there are more ways one could deepen their purpose, and in case these unconventional ways don't fancy your interest, try this one:   Complete this sentence as many times as you can.   My purpose is ________.   Write as many sentences as possible and tweak the words. When you cry or feel a deep surge of fear that says “You can't do that!”....that's when you found your current purpose. Like always, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

"Create an experience with people" - Jason Treu I know that all the jobs I have ever had in my life, I got through a personal connection. People are attached to just about every good result you want out of life: a raise, funding your company, providing you with emotional support, finding a romantic partner, going on adventures with you, getting your book published, or being your customers and clients. This is why I spend so much time focusing on the skills of creating and maintaining valuable relationships. Today's guest on the Art of Adventure is one of the best at this. I read his book, Social Wealth, on building relationships last year, and it quickly became one of my top resources for connecting with people. He coaches high performing individuals in networking, charisma, personal branding, and business leadership. This is a guy who backs up his knowledge with action. At the end of the interview when I asked him who else he thought I should talk to, I was really impressed with how easily and quickly he thought of his connections that would be perfect for me, and then offered an introduction. You can tell that he is a really outgoing individual, who also understands what it is like for introverts and inexperienced networkers. I liked his ideas so much that when I was in Boulder, CO recently, I stole one of his best ideas and hosted a dinner for everyone I knew there. Welcome to episode 72 with the genius of networking and relationship building, my friend Jason Treu (pronounced "Troy"). Quotes: "Generosity is the fastest way to build trust" - Jason Treu "Go to where people congregate" - Jason Treu "The key is following up with people" - Jason Treu "Adventure is having a defined quest" - Jason Treu "Ask people who their hero is (because you might know them!)" - Jason Treu "If you don't ask, the answer is always no" - Jason Treu "Create an experience with people" - Jason Treu "Growth happens outside our comfort zone" - Jason Treu "Trust yourself and like yourself"- Jason Treu What you will learn in this episode: -How to build instant rapport -How to built trust through generosity, authenticity, and vulnerability -How to connect with online influencers -How to prepare for meeting people at a conference ( hint: you can connect in advance!) -The exact questions to find common ground with new connections -How to leverage events to build relationships -The secret of volunteering at an event welcome table -How to stay social as an introvert -How to use video testimonials to meet influencers Continue the adventure: Jason's main page BeExtraordinary.tv Jason's Books: Social Wealth: How to Build Extraordinary Relationships By Transforming the Way We Live, Love, Lead and Network Jump Start Your Social Life A sampling of Jason's popular YouTube channel: InterNations.org for meeting expats around the world Jason recommends Chris Guillebeau's book: The Happiness of Pursuit: Finding the Quest That Will Bring Purpose to Your Life Thanks Jason Treu!

To dream the impossible dream has been the great engine of progress in the world.  From the early explorers, to scientists and engineers, to man's quest to explore the planets.  The story of exploration is the story of mankind.  When John Kennedy laid down the predicate of reaching the moon by the end of a decade, he defined for the whole county that kind of clear goal that also drives individuals forward.  The story of some of these individuals, along with his own quest,  is what Chris Guillebeau writes about in The Happiness of Pursuit: Finding the Quest That Will Bring Purpose to Your Life.My conversation with Chris Guillebeau:
