In this episode, we dive into the difference between purpose and significance, and how getting the equation wrong can keep us feeling stuck. I share my own journey of discovering my purpose and how I realized that, instead of focusing on doing more to get to where I wanted to go, I needed to first be who I was created to be. This episode is about learning how to align with your true purpose so you can move forward in your destiny with confidence.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: Purpose vs. Significance: Purpose is the reason why something exists or is done—it's something that's inside of you, waiting to be discovered. Significance refers to the importance or value of something—often, we confuse this with purpose, chasing success and external validation instead of realizing that purpose is already within us. The Backwards Equation: When I first started pursuing my purpose, I was focused on doing everything to get to where I thought I should be. Social media, growing followers, chasing success—I thought it would lead me to the purpose God had for me. The key realization: Instead of trying to “get there,” the focus should be on being who you really are. When you lean into your true self, you'll naturally get to where you're meant to go. Be Who You’re Made to Be: It’s about doing what you’re made to do—whether it’s connecting with others, leaning into hard moments, experiencing joy, or simply being faithful in the season you’re in. As you be who you are and do what you’re made to do, you'll become who you're called to be. It’s a process of growth and alignment. Purpose Is Inside You: We often think purpose is something external, something we have to chase, but it's already inside us. God has placed it there for us to discover. We spend so much time hustling for significance that we forget purpose isn’t something we need to perform for—it’s already part of who we are. The takeaway? Your purpose is already inside of you. Stop chasing external markers of success and significance. Lean into who you were made to be, and the rest will follow.
