Passion Struck with John R. Miles
Stop Waiting. Start Living. Most of us have been conditioned to believe a lie. We’re told that our worth is something to be earned, that we need to achieve more, hustle harder, and prove ourselves before we can finally feel like we matter. But no matter how much we accomplish, something still feels missing. Why? Because mattering isn’t something you prove—it’s something you create. And everything changes when you stop proving your worth—and start embodying it. Why Passion Struck is Different Most personal growth podcasts focus on hacks and habits—but they miss the deeper question: 👉 Why do we feel unfulfilled, even when we’re doing everything “right”? Passion Struck is different because it’s built on a deeper truth. ✅ You don’t find meaning—you create it. ✅ Fulfillment isn’t external—it’s built from within. ✅ The life you want isn’t ahead of you—it’s in the choices you make today. What You’ll Learn Hosted by John R. Miles, a former Fortune 50 executive and expert on intentional living, Passion Struck brings together top scientists, psychologists, health experts, and thought leaders to explore: 🧠 The Science of Purpose—How your brain is wired for meaning. 💡 The Psychology of Transformation—Why lasting change is hard—and how to make it stick. ⚡ The Mind-Body Connection—How holistic health fuels passion, energy, and performance. 🚀 The New Rules of Success—How to lead, thrive, and matter in a fast-changing world. This Isn’t Just a Podcast—It’s a Wake-Up Call. A challenge to stop waiting. To stop proving. To start creating a life that truly matters. 🔹 Rewire Your Mind.
