Season 1, Episode 2
Our life experiences can foreshadow our future passions and shape our core values. It's easy to overlook this part of our unique design and in this episode, Joe and Zac break down how to look at our experiences in a way that gives us insight into the path we may want to be on.

Why study your Life Experiences? 

It foreshadows your passions and shapes your core values

  • Research in Neuroscience proves that our brains attach meaning to stories:

How to study your life experiences: 

  • There are 2 types: Positive and Negative

  • We recall them by thinking through 3 areas:

    • Our Relationships

    • Our Experiences 

    • Our Accomplishments

After we have recalled our key experiences we ask ourselves 2 questions

1. How has this experience shaped who I am and what I do today?

2. How does this experience connect to a desire I currently have?
