#17: How To Clarify Your Purpose -- 6 Practical Tips You Need To Know

The Career By Design Podcast with Stacey Back

Ever asked yourself: What is my purpose? It’s a big, deep question and if you’ve ever contemplated it, it can be difficult to answer.
When my clients express the desire to ‘find their purpose’, what they’re asking is how they can feel more fulfilled in their work and life. I’ll be unpacking this topic -- and MORE -- in today’s episode.
Several years ago, I reached a point in my career where I began to wonder: What’s next?
For the first time EVER, I considered what I wanted in my career and what meaningful work looked like to me.
One of the biggest game changers was understanding my purpose -- and if you’re feeling frustrated or unfulfilled in your career, this step is critical.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing 6 practical tips to clarify YOUR purpose. Discover what a purpose is, why it’s important and how you can begin to define yours too.
You'll learn:

• The neuroscience behind purpose -- and why some people are more successful or able to achieve their goals
• A common misconception about purpose and the ONE belief you must shift to find more fulfillment at work
• Why overthinking and constantly searching for your purpose is keeping you stuck -- and what to do instead
• How I struggled to connect with the concept of ‘finding my purpose’ -- and the one practical tool which changed EVERYTHING
• The importance of moving out of your mind and into your heart to pinpoint your purpose
• Two powerful questions which will help you reflect on your past career and point you towards your purpose

This episode is packed with practical tips and stories of how my clients and I clarified our purpose. So grab a pen and paper and let’s start to uncover your ‘why’ too!
