The Buffet of Life

Sometimes, understanding things like purpose, mission in life, and values can be complicated when you're young. But in this episode, Jill explains why that's normal. Because you're still growing and have not seen half of your life yet, it's totally okay to not know everything crucial to your purpose. At least not yet. Jill uses the metaphor "buffet of life" when describing life's experiences. For someone who's already had more experience in life, their table would generally be more full or many in number than someone young. And because there's more at their table, they have more to reassess when identifying the experiences that gave them fulfillment. These experiences will help them better figure out the situations in their lives that gave genuine happiness, value, and the feeling of fireworks. For someone younger, this is also why it's essential to continuously put yourself out there. Exploring different things can expose you to many POVs that you can't learn if not firsthand.

Listen as Jill McAbe talks about why having a list of your stories is vital to soul searching in this episode of The Fit Mess!
