And we'll be right back after a word from our sponsors.

Let's broaden the conversation out a bit.

We're talking about being wise and getting information about our health.

But part of what gets said in motion with everybody, with you at a much earlier age than a lot of folks, is this question of, what am I doing with my life?

Like what is a good use of my time on this planet no matter how long or short it is?

And so often we're fed a series of questions and a series of expectations that we try and live into.

And then we find ourselves at a certain moment in life saying to ourselves, I feel like I checked most of those boxes and I don't feel the way I thought I would feel.

One of the words that so often comes up in this part of the conversation is purpose.

And there's so much around.

And it's to a certain extent, I feel it's almost like a loaded word these days.

You have an interesting take on purpose.

Tell me more about your lens.

Yeah, I love that.

I mean, that simple question, what's the point of this?

Like if you stop at any given moment during your day and just take a beat, look at what you're doing or where your mind is or what you're not doing, what's the point of this?

I'm guessing for a lot of us, and I'm raising my hand here, solid chunk of my day, I'm going to be a little bit jarred by the way I answer that question.

Or maybe I actually, I'm not even going to be able to come up with, I don't know what the purpose, like I literally...

There's no reason.

I don't know what the point of what I'm doing right now is, which is information right there too.

You touched on something else that I don't want to gloss over, which is this notion that so often we hear some version of, you've got to figure out, quote, your purpose.
