In this episode of the Passion Struck podcast, I explore the profound concept of "mattering." Mattering refers to the deep human need to feel important and valued by others. It encompasses attention, importance, dependence, and appreciation. The episode dives into the factors that influence mattering, how it differs from other self-concepts, and its significance in various aspects of life. Want to learn the 12 philosophies that the most successful people use to create a limitless life? Pre-order John R. Miles’s new book, Passion Struck, which will be released on February 6, 2024.

Imagine a world where your presence goes unnoticed, where you feel isolated, unimportant, and disconnected. Now, envision the opposite—a reality where you matter deeply to those around you and where your actions bring positive change. Which would you prefer? Undoubtedly, the latter. In this episode, we explore the profound concept of mattering, its significance, and the transformative power it holds in various aspects of life. We'll be sharing the inspiring story of Linda Cliatt-Wayman, who used mattering to rescue a failing school. Join us as we unravel the intricate layers of this essential human experience and learn how to empower mattering for everyone.
