3 Ways to Find Your Purpose with Liesl Ulrich-Verderber (Episode #52)

Purpose is aspirational, it’s always looking forward. Meaning is retrospective, it’s something you use to make sense of the past. Liesl Ulrich-Verderber, the CEO of Ever Widening Circles and Founder of the Conspiracy of Goodness Network, is back with us again to help break this down practically.

While last episode we looked at the mileposts of a purpose driven life, today we are going to dive a bit deeper and really hone in on HOW to find purpose in the first place. Liesl is always looking to inspire curiosity, connect people to a wider world, and give us all a sense of possibility – so let’s continue the discussion.
