In this deeply personal episode, Emma Campbell shares a soulful reflection on purpose—and why your greatest pain may in fact hold the key to your greatest purpose. Inspired by a moving story shared on the Imperfects podcast, Emma explores the idea that we are often called into our most meaningful work through the very experiences that challenge us the most.

She opens up about her own story—growing up as a sensitive, empathic child witnessing the emotional pain of those around her, and later facing her own struggles with anxiety and overwhelm. Through personal healing, therapy, and a relentless curiosity to find answers, Emma uncovered a passion for sharing the tools, perspectives, and mindset shifts that help people move through suffering and into possibility.

This episode invites you to reflect on the moments in your life that stirred something deep within you. Emma walks you through a powerful self-inquiry process she’s used with clients and groups to help uncover purpose, asking: What breaks your heart? What do you see as broken in the world? And what do you believe is possible instead?

Whether you're searching for clarity, meaning, or simply a sense of direction, this conversation offers a heartfelt and hopeful reframe. Emma reminds us that you don’t need to quit your job or start a business to live your purpose—you can start right where you are, in small ways, by following the tug of what lights you up and what you deeply care about.

She also shares a channeled message on what purpose truly is: a return to what you’ve always known and who you’ve always been.

This is an episode to listen to with an open heart and a journal nearby. Because when you begin to see your pain as fuel, everything changes—and that’s when the real work begins.
