The Carlitos Show RETHINK PURPOSE: It’s not a Destination, but a State of Alignment | Margherita Meg Pagani
Margherita "Meg" Pagani is an activist, entrepreneur, and bridge-maker between worlds.
After a Fine Art degree and a professional volleyball career, Meg lived and travelled across 30+ countries, creating impact ventures with local groups, big organizations and indigenous communities.
Because of her work, she was recognized as a Forbes 30Under30 and Fortune 40Under40 founder, as well as a serial TEDx speaker.
Meg now focuses on helping people navigate towards their purpose, not only by understanding their unique story, pain, and power, but by encouraging them to trust life and its greater intelligence.
She combines insights from science with the wisdom of ancestral traditions to create tools to empower people on their journey of self-realization.
WHAT WILL YOU FIND ON THIS EPISODE
We will dive deep into the concept of Purpose and its relation to our Story, Pain, and Power.
In particular, Meg explains how approaching Purpose as an end goal keeps us trapped in the same patterns. Instead, as ancestral traditions teach, we should re-evaluate Purpose as a state of being rather than a destination.
Meg helps us understand that by seeing ourselves as part of a wider ecosystem (like a single cell within the greater organism of Life), we can begin to align with our true Purpose.
We also explore practical ways to tun-in with life, and Meg provides actionable tools so that you can start your own journey to self-awareness today.
