Jordan shares insights from his books, “Taking Stock” and “The Purpose Code”, focusing on profound lessons learned from hospice patients about money, life, and purpose. They delve into the concepts of ‘Big P’ vs ‘Little P’ purpose, how individuals can create meaningful lives without succumbing to purpose anxiety, strategies for finding purpose, and improving overall well-being and happiness.
