Episode Synopsis

“You don’t need a new year to reinvent yourself. You just need to stop living on autopilot and start living on purpose.” In this episode of Beyond the Quo, host Stacey Luces dives into the importance of understanding and living with purpose. She discusses three core themes: redefining success on personal terms, leading courageously by addressing self-leadership and habits, and living authentically despite life's stages and societal expectations. Stacey explores why December is a month of reflection and preparation for the new year, and how purpose can replace temporary resolutions. She offers actionable strategies to shift from a status quo existence to a more intentional life, tackling tough subjects like relationships, boundaries, and incremental changes. Perfect for anyone feeling stuck or looking to make meaningful progress in their life and leadership journey. 🎧 In this episode: • 01:29 December Reflections and Resolutions • 02:31 Understanding and Living with Purpose • 04:57 Breaking Free from the Status Quo • 11:53 Finding Your Purpose • 18:25 Practical Steps to Discover Your Purpose • 26:34 Assessing Relationships and Priorities 💡 Key Takeaways: • Purpose Ends the Cycle of Performing Without Fulfillment You can have the job, the paycheck, the title, the busy calendar… and still feel empty. Purpose gives your life direction instead of letting you spin in place. • Purpose Isn’t Dramatic Reinvention; It’s Incremental Alignment You don’t have to burn your life down to live intentionally. Two-millimeter shifts — boundaries, priorities, values — move you toward your authentic self without chaos. • When You Live on Purpose, Everything Elevates Your confidence rises. Your relationships shift. Your energy changes. You stop performing, stop explaining, and start attracting aligned people, opportunities, and even more income. You’ve already done the quo—now it’s time to go beyond. 🔥 Feeling inspired?
