What If Your Life's Purpose Is Just to Be Here? | Sarah Collins
<p>What if your life's purpose isn't something you have to find... but something you're already living?</p><p></p><p>After spending years searching for meaning, many people arrive at the same unexpected question: What if the point isn't to discover a purpose, but simply to be fully present in the life that's already unfolding?</p><p></p><p>In this episode, Giuliano sits down with intuitive life coach Sarah Collins for a thoughtful conversation about purpose, happiness, spiritual awakening, identity, and what it actually means to live in the present moment. Drawing from her own journey of spending more than 20 years as a civil engineer before realizing she was searching for fulfillment in all the wrong places, Sarah shares how her perspective on life has completely changed.</p><p></p><p>Together they explore why so many of us feel compelled to chase purpose, success, and certainty, only to discover that fulfillment may have been available all along. They discuss the nature of thoughts, why we become attached to the past and anxious about the future, and how much of our suffering comes from believing we need life to be different than it is.</p><p></p><p>The conversation also dives into topics like spiritual awakening, synchronicities, non-duality, dreams, free will, reincarnation, past life regression, and the stories we tell ourselves about reality. Whether you agree with every idea or not, the discussion invites listeners to become more curious about the assumptions they make every day and whether there might be another way to experience life.</p><p></p><p>Rather than offering easy answers, this episode explores questions that many people quietly wrestle with. What is purpose? Are we creating our own reality? Why do we spend so much of our lives searching for something that may already be here? And what happens when we stop trying to force life to look a certain way and simply experience the moment we're in?</p><p></p><p>If you've ever felt like you've done everything you're "supposed" to do and still sensed there had to be something more, this conversation will likely resonate.</p><p></p><p>And if you enjoy this episode, hit subscribe to drop in on more of these conversations.</p><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.livingfullywithsarah.com/" target="_blank">https://www.livingfullywithsarah.com/</a></p><p></p><p>How to Be a Person: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Support the show: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno" target="_blank">https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno</a></p><p>Peaceful Profits: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://author.howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://author.howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Want to be a guest on How to Be a Person?

What If You've Been Measuring Success All Wrong? | Roberta Ravella
<p>What if we've been measuring success all wrong?</p><p></p><p>So many of us spend our lives chasing the things we've been told should make us happy... more money, more achievement, more recognition. But what if the real goal isn't success itself? What if it's building a life you actually enjoy living?</p><p></p><p>In this conversation, Giuliano sits down with Roberta Ravella, speaker, strategist, and founder of The Joy Experiment™, to explore what it really means to pursue joy instead of simply checking society's boxes. Together they unpack why so many people postpone happiness until some future milestone, how expectations shape our experience of life, and why treating life like an experiment can open the door to far more freedom, curiosity, and fulfillment.</p><p></p><p>They discuss the difference between pleasure and joy, why success doesn't have to come at the expense of peace, and how changing a single word ("and" instead of "but") can completely change the way we approach work, relationships, money, and personal growth. The conversation also explores nervous system regulation, why emotionally grounded decisions are often our best decisions, and how many of the beliefs we inherit about work, identity, and happiness deserve to be questioned.</p><p></p><p>Along the way, Giuliano shares why he sees himself as a "scientist of life," why experimenting with different paths has shaped who he is today, and why he believes every person has something that comes naturally to them if they're willing to keep exploring. Roberta explains why curiosity is often conditioned out of us, how many people mistake external achievements for internal fulfillment, and why joy isn't something to earn after decades of hard work. It's something we can begin cultivating today.</p><p></p><p>The conversation also ventures into parenting, expectations, religion, self-acceptance, and the surprising connection between believing people are fundamentally good and creating a more compassionate world. Rather than offering a rigid formula for happiness, this episode invites listeners to question long-held assumptions and consider a different possibility: that a meaningful life isn't built by getting everything "right," but by paying attention to what genuinely brings you alive.</p><p></p><p>And if you enjoy this episode, hit subscribe to drop in on more of these conversations.</p><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thejoyexperiment.live/" target="_blank">https://thejoyexperiment.live/</a></p><p></p><p>How to Be a Person: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Support the show: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno" target="_blank">https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno</a></p><p>Get the book: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Person-Gems-Living/dp/B0H155R7JL/" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Person-Gems-Living/dp/B0H155R7JL/</a></p><p>Business funding: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://funding.howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://funding.howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Want to be a guest on How to Be a Person?

Why So Many People Struggle to Make Big Life Decisions | Stephanie Peirolo
<p>Why do some decisions feel impossible to make, even when the answer seems obvious on paper?</p><p></p><p>In this conversation, executive coach, consultant, and author Stephanie Peirolo joins Giuliano for an exploration of why so many people struggle with life's biggest decisions and what it actually means to trust yourself when the stakes are high.</p><p></p><p>Drawing from her book, <i>The Saint and the Drunk: A Guide to Making the Big Decisions In Your Life</i>, Stephanie shares a decision-making framework inspired by centuries-old practices of discernment and adapted for modern life. The conversation explores the tension between logic and intuition, why many people feel disconnected from their own inner knowing, and how cultural expectations, family narratives, and social pressures can make it difficult to hear what they truly want.</p><p></p><p>Along the way, Stephanie reflects on her journey from journalism to business development, executive coaching, and authorship. She also opens up about getting sober at a young age, the role addiction played in helping her avoid difficult emotions, and how those experiences shaped the way she understands personal growth, self-awareness, and decision-making today.</p><p></p><p>Giuliano and Stephanie discuss concepts like the "genius of the body," attraction and aversion, honoring resistance, and the often-overlooked social cost of changing your mind. They explore why so many people stay on paths that no longer fit them, how to distinguish between fear and genuine resistance, and why making a decision doesn't guarantee a particular outcome.</p><p></p><p>This is a conversation about listening more closely to yourself, questioning the stories you've inherited, and recognizing that the decisions that shape your life are rarely as simple as a pros-and-cons list. Whether you're facing a career change, a relationship decision, a major life transition, or simply trying to figure out what comes next, this episode offers a thoughtful perspective on how to navigate uncertainty with greater clarity and intention.</p><p></p><p>Stephanie Peirolo is the author of <i>The Saint and the Drunk</i>, host of <i>The Bad Boss Brief</i>, and writer of the <i>Fierce Grace</i> Substack. Her writing and storytelling have appeared on The Moth, NPR, and The Guardian.</p><p></p><p>And if you enjoy this episode, hit subscribe to drop in on more of these conversations.</p><p></p><p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.speirolo.com/" target="_blank">https://www.speirolo.com/</a></p><p></p><p>How to Be a Person: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Support the show: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno" target="_blank">https://buymeacoffee.com/jewleeahno</a></p><p>Get the book: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Person-Gems-Living/dp/B0H155R7JL/" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Person-Gems-Living/dp/B0H155R7JL/</a></p><p>Peaceful Profits: <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://author.howtobeaperson.co" target="_blank">https://author.howtobeaperson.co</a></p><p>Want to be a guest on How to Be a Person?
