Hey, everyone. Welcome back to on purpose. This episode is a really, really special conversation

that I had with my friend, Laurie Santos and her Yehles, Yehles students that she invited

me to speak to on a private Zoom call. But I really wanted to share it with all of you

because it really fascinated me the kind of themes and the topics that students were worried

into what I do behind the scenes and some of the stuff that isn't on the videos or isn't out there.

I'd really appreciate you leaving a review. We've already got thousands of reviews across the

world. And I'm just loving reading them and sharing them. So thank you so much. And I can't wait

gallery views. They're frantically excited about kind of welcoming you and waving you in.

I think that's one of the most fantastic things about your story and why it's so relatable to

students at a place like Yehles is that it's kind of the same path that they're on right now,

but kind of deviated from where you were going. And so really want to start at the beginning almost

in your early life. Because when you hear the kind of punchline of your story that you're this

former month who's doing, who's helping people find their meaning and purpose in life, you might

think that the path was pretty straightforward. And I think one continuity on the path is it seems

like you actually always were a seeker in some sense, is that right? Yeah, definitely. First of all,
