Amy Morin
About this episode

There's often pressure to develop a "passion" in life. But you can still still live a fulfilling life even if there's not an easily identifiable thing you feel passionate about. Instead, you can create a passionate lifestyle where you feel fulfilled and mentally strong, even if there's not one thing you really love to do.

John Miles is the author of the book "Passion Struck," a roadmap for intentional living, and hosts a popular podcast of the same name which dives deep into discovering and harnessing one's passion for purposeful living. Some of the things John shares are how to live a passion struck life, how to change your perspective on things, and how to be intentional in your actions.
