Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right—good job, steady paycheck—but something's missing? Sam and Sophie open with that exact feeling, the one Jonathan Fields says keeps so many of us stuck chasing external success instead of internal meaning.
They walk through Fields' framework for discovering your unique spark: paying attention to peak moments when you feel most alive, and also to draining moments that reveal misalignment. The conversation covers the zones of excellence versus genius, taking imperfect action without quitting your job, and reframing fear as a sign you're on the right path. They also explore the distinction between passion and purpose, and why community matters.
If you've ever wondered whether it's selfish to pursue what lights you up, this episode offers a clear answer—and a practical way to start. The takeaway: your spark is already within you; the only question is whether you'll let it ignite.
