Episode 3872: Kat Medina shares how her craving for adventure once led her to believe purpose could only be found abroad, but a mindset shift helped her rediscover that same sense of awe and clarity in everyday life. By embodying the curiosity, presence, and gratitude of a traveler, she found meaning not in the destination, but in how she chooses to experience the world around her. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.katmedina.com/article?id=calling Quotes to ponder: "It wasn’t necessarily traveling that gave me that sense of knowing and purpose I craved, it was the act of participating in life from a place of openhearted curiosity, presence, and genuine gratitude for all that is." "The joy and aliveness that had previously only come from traveling became ingrained in my daily life." "I would look around me with awe at the new sights and smells, inhaling the present like a much-needed breath of air." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
