One of the biggest factors in a happy, thriving life is meaning. Knowing your ‘why’, you can get through any ‘how.’ This show was previously aired in 2022, however it’s one of my all-time favorite episodes as the content is simple, actionable & significant.

Why is meaning so important for us?
How do you discover your meaning in life?
Are there individual differences in terms of how much we need meaning?
Why is it important to be aware of your core beliefs or ‘givens'?
What are the 3 levels of core beliefs?
How do you identify your core beliefs?
Which core beliefs serve us best for success? For happiness?
