Shownotes

Understanding what gives you a sense of meaning and purpose in life is crucial to wellbeing, but we all have times where we feel lost or directionless. In today's ep, I'm sharing Michael Steger's Meaning Framework, and its three key elements of Coherence, Purpose, and Significance.

These pillars help us make sense of our experiences and guide us towards living a more intentional and fulfilling life. I'll share practical insights on how to diagnose feelings of disconnection and suggestions for realigning with what truly matters to you as a way to regain a sense of meaning again.

Takeaways:

  • Finding meaning in life is crucial for overall satisfaction and well-being, helping us navigate tough times.
  • Michael Steger's Meaning Framework highlights three pillars which contribute to our sense of meaning in life: coherence, purpose, and significance.
  • Coherence gives life a narrative that makes sense, helping us understand our experiences and challenges better.
  • Purpose fuels our actions, providing motivation to engage in meaningful activities aligned with our values.
  • Significance is the sense that you matter and that your life is of value.
