<p>Forget the tidy slogans about "finding your life purpose." In this episode, Lyndon and Breallyn take a swing at the myth that you’re supposed to have it all figured out. Inspired by Cory Muscara’s reflections, they unravel the pressure to lock yourself into a single path — and open the door to something far wilder: a life that shifts, grows, and refuses to be pinned down. Expect thoughts on self-discovery, the weight of outside expectations, and why sometimes the best thing you can do is just live.</p><br><p>View the transcript: <a href="https://paininthearts.life/index.php/transcript/ep-18-is-finding-your-life-purpose-holding-you-back/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://paininthearts.life/index.php/transcript/ep-18-is-finding-your-life-purpose-holding-you-back/</a></p><p>Cory Muscara on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/corymuscara" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/corymuscara</a></p><p>Thanks for listening!</p><p><strong>Support the show for free</strong> on <a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a></p><p><a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife</a></p><br><p><strong>Visit our website</strong> <a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a></p><p><a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.paininthearts.life</a></p><br><p><strong>Recorded and produced at </strong>Morning Phase Recording Room </p><p>Original theme music by <a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lyndon Wesley</a></p><p><a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.lyndonwesley.com</a></p> <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/1812595">Get bonus content on Patreon</a><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

<p>In this episode, Breallyn and Lyndon reflect on how art weaves its way into life’s most significant milestones—especially ceremonies like funerals and weddings. What role does music, poetry, and ritual play when words fall short? How does culture shape or stifle our ceremonial expression? From Leonard Cohen at a funeral to the poetry of W.H. Auden, this is a tender and tangential conversation about grief, memory, and why even the least “artsy” among us still turn to creativity when life hits hardest.</p><h3><br></h3><p><br></p><p>Thanks for listening!</p><p><strong>Support the show for free</strong> on <a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a></p><p><a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife</a></p><br><p><strong>Visit our website</strong> <a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a></p><p><a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.paininthearts.life</a></p><br><p><strong>Recorded and produced at </strong>Morning Phase Recording Room </p><p>Original theme music by <a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lyndon Wesley</a></p><p><a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.lyndonwesley.com</a></p> <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/1812595">Get bonus content on Patreon</a><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

<p>In this heavy yet heartfelt episode of Pain in the Arts, Breallyn and Lyndon step into deeper waters. They reflect on the life and legacy of their dear friend Salima, exploring the idea that every life — intentionally or not — becomes a living work of art. From grief to philosophy, from memory to meaning, they wrestle with whether we can curate our lives as we go, or only recognize the shape of it when we look back. </p><br><p><br></p><p>Thanks for listening!</p><p><strong>Support the show for free</strong> on <a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a></p><p><a href="http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.patreon.com/painintheartslife</a></p><br><p><strong>Visit our website</strong> <a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a></p><p><a href="http://www.paininthearts.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.paininthearts.life</a></p><br><p><strong>Recorded and produced at </strong>Morning Phase Recording Room </p><p>Original theme music by <a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lyndon Wesley</a></p><p><a href="http://www.lyndonwesley.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.lyndonwesley.com</a></p> <a target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href="https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/1812595">Get bonus content on Patreon</a><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
