160: Stop Looking for Your Purpose. Start Following Opportunities! with Caro Lampinen
2026/07/13 | 53 mins.What if you don't need to FIND your purpose?
What if a purposeful life can be built by following the opportunities that call to you, one spark at a time?
If you've ever struggled to figure out if this is the "right" career for you, if you're living in the "right" city, or if this is the "right" goal you should be pursuing...
this episode is for you. 💫
In this week's podcast with professional artist Caroline Lampinen, you'll hear how seeing herself as an "opportunist" instead of a "goal-setter" helped her bring dreams to life she never even thought to dream in the first place.
Ready to stop pressuring yourself to have it all figured out?
Give this episode a listen to see what unlocks when you simply follow the opportunities that call to you!
If self-doubt keeps getting in the way of pursuing those sparks...
Join me for BELIEVE, a virtual workshop on July 14th!
We'll spend time exploring the opportunities that are asking to be followed, uncover why your brain tends to spiral into self-doubt, and discover what helps you build belief that propels you past fear.

Music: https://www.purple-plan - Have you ever felt called toward a dream... and then started doubting yourself because the people around you didn't understand?
In this conversation with mind-body wellness educator, medium, and founder of Firefly Hollow Wellness, Kara Lovehart, we explore what it looks like to trust your visions even when they don’t make logical sense or the people around you don’t get it. Kara shares how a dream that once seemed totally unreachable eventually became the thriving wellness center she leads today, and why you don't need to have everything figured out before taking the next step.
You’ll hear how learning to trust her intuition after suppressing it for many years was one of the keys to bringing this vision to life. If you feel disconnected from your inner knowing, you’ll discover the unexpected barrier that often blocks intuition and what can help you reconnect.
If you’d love to trust yourself more deeply and courageously follow your dreams no matter what others think, this episode is for you!
Give it a listen and then see what next step you feel called to take next!

Music: https://www.purple-plan - How long are you willing to believe in something before you give up on it?
That question hit me in a whole new way recently after watching a story about a woman who spent 35 years fighting for something she believed in... and reflecting on a powerful piece of my own family history that reminded me why I do the work I do.
In this episode, I'm sharing what these stories taught me about purpose, patience, belief, and what it really takes to keep going when the results aren't here yet.
If there's something in your life that matters deeply to you and you're finding it challenging to stay connected to the vision long term, this conversation is for you.
Give it a listen and see what resonates with you! ✨
If you're in Baltimore and want to take this work deeper, join us for BELIEVE on June 25th.
Together, we'll explore what you want to believe is possible, what makes believing in that vision feel hard, and what can help you stay connected to your vision for the long haul.
