In this episode Mark Williamson speaks with Dr. Michael Steger, founder of the Center for Meaning and Purpose, about reclaiming meaning and purpose amid modern life’s chaos.They explore three pathways to meaning—significance (mattering), coherence (making sense of life), and purpose (motivated action)—and offer practical tips for cultivating each, including savoring, storytelling, community connection, and healthy boundaries.Listeners are invited to reflect on their life chapters, support others’ sense of meaning, and act kindly to create a more meaningful, connected world.
