Is there one universal meaning of life, or a purpose we each get to choose and create for ourselves? In this profound conversation with author James Bailey, we explore the answers he gathered from asking 100 people—from Jane Goodall to Holocaust survivors—the biggest question of all. We dive into the difference between meaning and purpose, how our definition evolves through life's challenges, and the powerful choice we all have to find hope, spread love, and assign a beautiful meaning to our own existence.
