Key Takeaways

Our CEO & Founder, Jessica Chen, recently hosted a Soulcast Media | LIVE event on LinkedIn, where she interviewed the former Head of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, Meta, Regina Lawless. They shared tips and personal stories about finding your purpose beyond the paycheck.

Here are the takeaways for VIP Comm Pass members:

  • Purpose is usually aligned with growing in some area of our lives.
  • When trying to find more purpose, we need to give ourselves space to listen. We can walk during our lunch break or meditate to quiet our minds.
  • Understanding what is or is not working for us can help narrow down what will bring us more fulfillment.
  • Sometimes, our day-to-day work isn't as fulfilling as we think it could be. However, our company offers many different ways to get involved.
  • We can find more purpose when we give ourselves the space to think and tune in to what is working.
  • We can often lose sight of our purpose when we are stagnant.
  • To not be stagnant, we need to create opportunities for ourselves that shake up our day-to-day.

purpose beyond the paycheck

  • Our purpose is often intertwined with whether or not we are using our strengths.

  • We can also think about what we find value in, whether talking with people or helping people - what we find valuable can help us find our purpose.

  • Doing things that align with our core values will help us find more purpose.
  • When our values are in sync, the perfect harmony boosts our engagement, productivity, and overall effectiveness.
  • When speaking to anyone, don't speak to them through their title; instead, talk to them like they are a person and add value to what they are already doing.
  • Being an authentic communicator means bringing elements of ourselves into our communications.
  • Being a clear and confident communicator doesn't mean we can't bring our personality.
  • Our purpose isn't always in our to-do list, and that's okay.
