Purpose is incredible and if you’re pushed by the right one, there is no doubt that it has the ability to push you into incredible heights. So then the question is, why aren’t we all driven by purpose? I mean it feels incredible to fulfill a sense of purpose, it gives you a massive boost in capability as purpose driven humans tend also to be competent humans, it also tends to reframe the road that you are on because when your purpose is the engine that pushes you, road blocks tend to look a lot more like detours. So what gives?
In today's show we talk about the number one thing that stands in our way of fulfilling our purpose.

Today I sit down with my friend and all around badass, Dr. Katie Pate to chat about the struggle of finding purpose in life amidst a world that often seems to have other plans. Kate has PhD in neurophysiology and is CEO and Founder of a military medical technology start-up called Coruna Medical. She is also the Director of Research for Heroic Hearts Project, a non-profit focused on bringing struggling veterans to retreat centers for healing through the powerful plant medicine, ayahuasca, and the Director of Research for Unlimited Sciences, a psychedelic research nonprofit that combines the power of data and lived experiences to serve the community, educate the public, and inform common sense practices and policies. Additionally, Kate is a Human Performance Research Partner with Black Lab Sports, and TBI Research Partner with Invictus Project, a 501(c) 3 that takes a "diagnostics first" approach to treat the root causes of TBI, PTSD, and depression in combat veterans. When not working, you'll most likely find Kate playing amongst the mountains of Colorado on foot, on skis, or on two wheels, and hanging with her friends, family, and dog, Miles.
