EPISODE 33   

What is Motivational Design and how does it give us clues to the unique way we are called to live, work, love and serve?

This is the first of three episodes featuring an interview with Dr. Joshua Miller (PhD), Founder of INSCAPE Personal Vocation Centre and co-author of Unrepeatable: Cultivating the Unique Calling of Every Person.

In Part 1,  Dr. Josh Miller and I talk about what Motivational Design is, the importance of  broadening the definition of "service" to consider the unique motivational design of each person, and why it is important to locate our unique place in the bigger story of humanity.
