The Pressure of Purpose//The Real Reason You’re Struggling to Find Your Purpose

June 30, 2025 • Mariah Clayton

Happy Monday girlies! In this week’s episode, we’re dismantling the pressure to “figure it all out” and rethinking what purpose really means in a world obsessed with hustle, titles, and perfectly packaged callings. I share my personal journey with purpose, including the fear I carried for years about missing God’s calling on my life — and the peace I found in realizing that purpose isn’t one thing, it’s everything.

We’ll explore why so many of us feel stuck, lost, or confused when it comes to our calling, and how culture has twisted the meaning of purpose into a goal we chase instead of a life we embody. Using reflections from the book of Ecclesiastes, real-life stories, and spiritual truths, this episode is your invitation to stop striving and start surrendering.

✨ Whether you're feeling behind, unsure of your next step, or overwhelmed by “not knowing,” this one’s for you.
