The fundamental question of \u201cwhat should we do with our lives and why?\u201d is an interesting one. With life being finite, I\u2019ve long been fascinated with how to make the most of my time. How can we create more satisfying, meaningful, and fulfilling lives? What types of goals should we aim to achieve? Taking care of our bodies and minds through fitness is one avenue, but there\u2019s more to life than muscles. And so I\u2019m excited to share today\u2019s podcast, which is an interview I recorded with Ben Nemtin all about this topic.

In case you\u2019re not familiar with Ben, he\u2019s the #1 New York Times best-selling author of What Do You Want To Do Before You Die? and his new book, The Bucket List Journal, is a practical guidebook for turning your goals and dreams into reality. He\u2019s also the co-founder of The Buried Life movement, and is recognized as one of the World\u2019s Best Motivational Speakers, having delivered over 500 keynotes to brands and Fortune 500 companies around the globe. His work has been featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Today Show, CNN, NBC, FOX, ABC, CBS, and more.
