Accidents Happen; You Just Don’t Want Your Life to be One

We’re told to live intentionally — to take the reins, to choose boldly. But often, without realizing it, we drift. Titles accumulate, opportunities knock, life happens. And suddenly, the path we’re on isn’t one we meant to choose.

In this episode, two listeners — separated by decades — unknowingly echo the same story: ambition deferred, then redefined. Alongside them, four saboteurs of intentional living: a framework for examining how and why we lose direction, and what it takes to course-correct towards a clearer sense of purpose.

This is a conversation about decisions, drifts, and recalibration to get to a better answer to the question, “What should I do with my life?” A candid look at how people find themselves far from where they wanted to go — and what it might take to begin again.
