What if the life you really want isn’t lost—it’s just buried under expectations? Today’s guest is activist, author, and founder of Moms Demand Action, Shannon Watts. On the pod, she shares what it takes to reclaim your voice, reconnect with your purpose, and live a life lit by your own desire. We talk about identity, burnout, blowback, and what it means to start a fire at any age.
You’ll Learn:
-How to reconnect with your true desires (not just the ones you were taught to want)
-The difference between obligation and purpose and how to stop confusing the two
-The real cost of staying quiet and how to move through the fear of being seen
-What Shannon’s “fire formula” is and how to use it to find purpose at any age
-How to let go of an identity that no longer fits and begin to reinvent yourself
Shannon Watts is the founder and former leader of Moms Demand Action—one of the largest grassroots movements in the country, dedicated to ending gun violence and creating safer communities. She’s also a speaker, community leader and author of the beautiful new bookFired Up: How to Turn Your Spark into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age.
