Episode 47 - Finding your purpose
Show Notes

Find your life purpose with three simple questions.

One of the most amazing things in life is that after all the good and bad things we go through, they lead us to live experiences and leave us with learnings that we will never forget. Why do I talk about this? Because to know what our purpose is, we must know ourselves better.

Our purpose as a meaning of life is related to our dreams, to what we like, to what we can say "I would do this for free all my life." Unfortunately, many people remain in jobs where they do not feel comfortable. If you are one of them, this is a sign for you to start asking yourself what your purpose in life is and to go after it. Many successful people took risks in their life, leaving behind stable jobs to pursue their dreams, and they achieved it. You can be one of them too.

Do you know what your purpose is? Press play and find it.


EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS

  • [1:00] The first moment I thought about my purpose.

Finding mine was not something that happened overnight. It all started with the birth of my daughter, Grace. I felt like I missed so many things from my son's early years because I was working a lot that I didn't want the same thing to happen with her. That's when I began the process of searching for my purpose.

  • [10:28] The purpose comes from the things you love.

I grew up with a great interest in computers. I felt that it was magical, that just by adding some code, a lot of amazing things could be done. For this reason, in my college career, I decided to study system engineering. Although my love for technology was undoubted, I have also always been a people person. Knowing this helped me in discovering my purpose

  • [15:27] Three things to keep you focused at work.

1) Feel connected to something bigger than yourself.

2) Know your work matters.

3) Understand how your work affects others.

  • [21:52] The I Am Mantuana Podcast was born to complement my purpose.

Today I can understand that my purpose is to help others. That I love to talk, help, communicate and teach and it is something that has always been in me. I love the interaction and the human warmth. I love knowing that through words, I can change someone's life, and that is so rewarding. This podcast allows me to do all of that. Also, my new venture as a coach, and I'm excited about that.

  • [38:57] Three questions to help you find your purpose.

1) If you had all the money in the world, what would you spend your time on?

2) How would your perfect day be?

3) What activities set your soul on fire?
