Why Purpose Matters
Description
In this episode of The Good Insights Podcast, we explore the fascinating world of youth purpose through the lens of cutting-edge research and practical application. Claremont Graduate University’s Dr. Kendall Cotton Bronk shares her insights on how purpose is defined and why it matters for young people navigating questions of identity, career, and contribution. We delve into findings from a cross-cultural research study examining how purpose connects to career aspirations across diverse contexts, revealing both common threads and meaningful differences. The conversation also introduces a brand-new Purpose Toolkit, a rich collection of resources and strategies designed to help educators guide students in discovering and nurturing their sense of purpose. Listen in on the conversation to discover why schools must intentionally make space for this work and what educators can do to nurture purpose in their classrooms.
