E2 P1: Your Presence is Your Purpose - with Debb Latwat
Stop Searching for Your Purpose — You’re Already Living It
Do you ever feel like something’s missing — like no matter what you do, you’re still waiting to find your “real” purpose? You’re not alone. Many of us are searching for meaning, expecting it to arrive in the form of a big achievement or life-altering calling.
But what if your purpose has been with you all along?
In our latest podcast episode, we explore this idea with Debb Latwat, who’s been on her own journey of self-discovery. Feeling uninspired and restless, Debb longed for clarity on what she was “meant” to do. Yet, as she and Janelle unpacked her story, they discovered something surprising: Debb’s greatest gift was already shining through.
The Overlooked Power of Presence
We often undervalue what comes naturally to us. If it’s easy, we assume it must be easy for everyone else too — and that can blind us to our own brilliance. Debb realized that her way of showing up in the world, effortlessly connecting and uplifting those around her, was the very thing that made her life meaningful.
Your presence, just as you are, can profoundly impact the people around you. Recognizing this can shift how you see yourself — and what you believe you bring to the world.
Try This at Home: See Yourself Through Their Eyes
Ask a trusted friend or loved one: “When do you feel most encouraged, supported, or inspired by me?”
Reflect on what they share. Are there gifts you’ve been overlooking?
Write down three qualities you naturally bring into every room — things you do without effort.
You may be surprised to find that your greatest impact is happening in the simplest moments.
The takeaway: You don’t have to strive for something extraordinary to live a life of purpose. Sometimes, your presence alone is the gift — and learning to embrace that can bring the fulfillment you’ve been searching for.
