The notion of having a purpose is so prevalent today that it borders on being construed as trite. And yet many of us seek purpose nonetheless, whether for ourselves, our families, or the organizations that we’re part of, whether we know how to define purpose or not.
We are joined today by global leadership authority, anthropologist, and conflict resolution expert, Aldo Civico to discuss:
- What’s important about seeking out a purpose?
- What does making that purpose massive and transformative enable?
- How do we actually go about authoring this purpose?
- And finally, how do we overcome limiting beliefs, emotional trauma, and resistance along the way?
Aldo shares that thinking big through a massive purpose gives us a measure of the gap that we need to close, and enables us to stretch and grow while simultaneously helping us dive more deeply into ourselves. We find this purpose not by continuously asking the question of what our purpose is, but instead by being in dynamic dialogue with our experiences and observing what touches us. Alongside this ever-evolving sense of purpose, we must also cultivate a set of practices and support systems that help free us from anxiety, blockage, and phobia, else that purpose stays a fantasy as opposed to the foundation of our most vibrant lives.
