Living a Life of Purpose with Educator and Author Victor Strecher

Victor Strecher describes his life before and after his young daughter got a heart transplant, as going from black & white to technicolor.
Before her first life-saving heart transplant, Victor was going through the motions of life, doing his research, teaching, working towards getting tenure so he can play more golf.
But everything changed after realizing how truly precious our time here on Earth is, and that we should be living what limited time we have as if every day was our last. Everything REALLY changed once he sadly lost his daughter when she was 19 years old, and he found himself without purpose.
Vic Strecher is a Behavioral Scientist and Professor at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. He teaches people how to live longer, better lives with purpose through live classes, talks around the world, published books, and most recently, a free online course on Coursera.
This episode will move you to tears as he recounts the story of losing his daughter and her chilling final words, and shares how he went from living a meaningless and self-indulgent life, to turning his pain into the purpose to help others.
We discuss how living with purpose is literally better for your health, what purpose truly is, how to live a life worth living, what Vic’s experience with grieving and remembering his daughter has been like, and more.
