In this thought-provoking episode, we explore a question that challenges conventional wisdom about work: What is the core problem facing today's working population? Instead of pointing to economics or broken systems, this episode reveals a deeper truth about how we've lost our connection to abundance, peace, and the natural flow of life—and how this disconnect shapes everything about how we work.

Reflection Questions

• What underlying conviction drives your days and your decisions?
• Do you wake up already dividing the world into good and bad?
• Are you unknowingly inviting conflict into your work and relationships?
• What resistance has this created in your life?
• How much of what you do has become an act of defensiveness?
• Are you merely managing your work—or truly leading it?
• Are you ready to make a contract with yourself and return to a more natural, more holistic perspective?

Resources Mentioned

This is my final contribution of 2025, an offering on purpose, and an invitation to pause before the new year begins.

• The real origin and meaning of the word “purpose”
• Why purpose is less about seeking and more about sharing
• How generosity becomes the engine of meaning and fulfillment
