How to Figure Out What You Actually Want in Life

What if nothing is terribly wrong with your life, but something still feels missing?

Cathy sits down with Ben Nemtin, co-founder of The Buried Life and author of What Do You Want to Do Before You Die?, for a conversation about the dreams we bury, why waiting for motivation keeps us stuck, and how to start building a life that actually feels like your own.

Ben shares how a period of depression led him and his friends to write a list of 100 things they wanted to do before they died, eventually turning that experiment into a movement. He explains why purpose does not have to be one huge calling, why taking action can create motivation, and why the smallest possible step is often enough to start moving toward the things that make you feel more alive.

Cathy also opens up about how losing her dad changed the way she looked at her own life, why she ultimately chose to leave the life she had built in Los Angeles, and the honest conversation she finally had with her father shortly before he died. Together, Cathy and Ben explore regret, fear of judgment, letting go of control, and what can happen when you stop waiting for a crisis to give yourself permission to change.

This episode is for you if your life looks fine on paper but you keep wondering whether there is something more, if you have lost touch with what you actually want, or if fear and practicality keep talking you out of taking the first step.
