Unpacked Thoughts

From Chasing to Living: The Purposeful Life

Most people in the room you're sitting in right now are winning by every measurable standard — and completely lost. This episode of Unpacked Thoughts is called The Purposeful Life, and it goes where most business conversations won't. Not strategy. Not frameworks. The moment I sat in my car after a board meeting, stared at the steering wheel, and realized I had no idea why I was doing any of it. This is for the CEO who can't sleep. The founder who crossed every milestone and felt emptier for it. The executive who's executing brilliantly but running on the wrong fuel. I talk about the shift from desire-driven performance to purpose-driven presence — and why that shift, counterintuitively, made me more effective, not less. Better decisions. Better rooms. Better results. No retreat in Bali. No life-coach rhetoric. Just the honest reckoning I had with myself — and the daily disciplines that came out of it. If you're building something that matters, this is the conversation happening underneath all the other conversations. Listen. Then send it to someone who needs it.
