Following Your Inner Purpose with Film Producer Nic Askew

Divine Destiny versus Societal Pressure

The conversation explores the conflict between societal expectations to maintain a stable job and the "divine destiny" found by listening to one's inner voice. Using a metaphor of a man who feels a deep urge to be a gardener, Nic Askew and Jonnie Jensen discuss the pain of ignoring such callings. They suggest that awareness is a "pain in the ass" because it forces a choice between the status quo and a more authentic, albeit uncertain, path.
