What is the difference between a career and a calling? Why do so many successful people still feel unfulfilled in their work?

In this episode, we break down the critical distinction between chasing income and pursuing purpose. Scott Maderer explains how a career is often about making a living, while a calling is about how you are uniquely wired to contribute, serve, and find meaning. The conversation explores why the “perfect job” rarely exists, how mindset shapes fulfillment, and why aligning your time, talents, and decisions with what truly matters can transform your life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, restless, or uncertain about your path — even while doing well on paper — this discussion will challenge how you think about success, work, and purpose.

Topics include:

• Career vs calling explained

• How to find meaningful and fulfilling work

• Why success doesn’t always equal happiness

• Mindset and behavior shifts for life direction

• Overcoming internal resistance and doubt

Perfect for entrepreneurs, professionals, and anyone questioning whether they’re living the life they were meant to live.
