Are there times when you’ve achieved massive career success yet still felt profoundly unfulfilled and numb inside?

It took hitting a breaking point for John to realise he was ruthlessly chasing professional glory and neglecting the most important things in his life.

In this continuation of host Boo’s interview with John Miles, they revisit John’s transformative journey from an unsatisfied executive to a "passionstruck" evangelist for intentional living. He opens up about the life-changing impact of prioritising relationships, well-being and serving others over the relentless pursuit of material success.

Need a powerful wake-up call to realign your life with what truly brings happiness and meaning? You won’t want to miss this!
Key Lessons:

1. Don't Define Yourself by Career Success Alone - While professional achievements can be rewarding, true fulfilment comes from nurturing meaningful relationships, taking care of your physical and mental health, and finding purpose beyond just work.

2. Rediscover Your Childhood Passions - What activities did you love as a kid before "grown-up" responsibilities took over? Reconnect with those passions and step outside your comfort zone regularly.

3. Practice Gratitude, Help Others - Gain perspective by appreciating how fortunate you are compared to many others in the world. Count your blessings, but also pay it forward through volunteering, charitable giving, acts of service, etc.

4. Start Small to Overcome Inertia - Having big goals is great, but it's easy to get stuck in analysis paralysis. Lower the "activation energy" by taking tiny steps every day/week towards your vision.

5. Invite Challenges as Opportunities - Rather than shying away, lean into challenges that scare you a bit. Embracing difficulties allows you to navigate them more proactively and emerge stronger.
