Another masterpiece!!!

This is a kind of article that makes you pause and think. And when you do that, you realize that you understand your psyche a little better than before...

Amazing work...

Really enjoyed ready this. I’ve been erring on the side of “trust the universe” this year but it seems like I need to trust myself more.

Looking forward to the next instalment. Instant subscribe.

Thanks Fia, I appreciate that.

If you're reading this I'm pretty sure you already have everything it takes.

Its interesting how you talk about Ego... for me Ego is responsible for the "identity" the light and the dark once you integrate the shadow.

And for sure our calling is not tied to the Ego. It comes from a deeper place within. I have felt this.

I read a book called The Gift Behind The Wound, which I won't go into, but the title alone speaks volumes.

Great read as always brother thank you 🙏

I love how you laid this out. I think what you're describing here is what so many are going through right now, even when they don't realize it. This purpose crisis is in my opinion the opportunity for us to 'find purpose' on a collective level and finally live naturally in connection as we're meant to. As always - powerful piece.

That's an important point. Finding a purpose on a collective level. We're so lost and disconnected (from nature).

I love this "A personal brand is a story the ego tells the world. A legacy is the trail left by a soul that has answered its calling." - I am fascinated by this Jungian idea of a soul's calling or an attractor that is calling you in the future.

Thanks Michael, I appreciate that.

I realized my purpose and calling in wild nature, when the mind became quiet.

I think that’s a great and honest place. Had some very deep moments there as well.

That faith piece is something that's kept me in it despite not having a tangible evidence that what I'm doing is "working" (the typical proofs we look for). But the challenge came when I experienced how it makes other people uncomfortable. I didn't doubt myself or what calls me, but it was weighing me down.
