They describe attending personal‑growth seminars, business and leadership training, completing four multi‑day vision quests involving fasting, launching multiple ventures, and earning an executive MBA. After progressing through multiple career identities, they experience an epiphany: their purpose is not centered on personal achievements in engineering, music, or geography, but on expanding themselves to serve and positively impact as many lives as possible. The speaker concludes that through choosing diverse paths, they discovered their true ‘why’—to give more by being more.

So it took every single ounce of courage in my being to take that first step into this uncharted territory of mine. But I needed help, and I did get the help. Personal growth seminars, business training, leadership training. I did 4 vision quests where I would fast 4 days. With no water, no food, in the woods for 4 years. I started multiple ventures. I did an executive MBA. I went from double career agent to quadruple career agent to somewhere in between until aha moment. That moment when I realized, oh my God, it was never about engineering and music. It was never about Montreal or the mines. It was about how I can be more so I can give more. It wasn't about my life. Oh no, it wasn't about my life. It was about how many lives I can truly touch. You see, I chose everything, and in the process, I found myself and my why.
