This week on the Journey to Launch Podcast we have a returning guest, Jordan Grumet, a financial independence and wellness expert, discussing his new book, “The Purpose Code,” which explores the concept of purpose in our lives. He differentiates between “little p” purpose, which is process-oriented and joyful, and “big P” purpose, which is goal-oriented and often stressful. Jordan emphasizes that true happiness and impact come from engaging in activities that bring joy, rather than striving for grand achievements. He also addresses the misconception that lack of time or money prevents one from finding purpose, suggesting that youth, energy, and community can be leveraged. Jordan advocates for building a life of purposeful activities, which in turn fosters deeper connections and long-term impact.
In this episode, Jordan discusses:
- His transition from being a hospice doctor to focusing on understanding and helping others find their purpose.
- The difference between meaning and purpose and why purpose is a key ingredient of happiness.
- How to identify and build purpose anchors through methods like life reviews, subtraction, revisiting childhood joys, and experimenting with the spaghetti method.
- Why parenting is a responsibility and it shouldn’t be one’s sole purpose + why focusing on one’s own purpose sets a positive example for children & leads to generational growth.
- And more!
