A Masterclass on Finding Your Purpose, with Men’s Coach Jared Schuster

Update: 2025-01-29

Description

What if true success isn't about pushing harder toward future goals, but about being present and curious about whatever is happening right now? In this episode of The Optimist, I talk to my very own personal coach, Jared Schuster. This conversation challenges conventional ideas about masculine success and achievement.

We explore why so many "successful" men feel empty despite their accomplishments, and how breaking free from society's success script can lead to genuine fulfillment. Jared shares insights on moving beyond autopilot living, embracing present-moment awareness, and discovering purpose through authentic curiosity.
