Leaving the House to Explore the Woods w/ Charcee Starks - Episode 9

Welcome back, Purpose Finders!



I’m so glad you’re here for another deeply insightful episode of the Purpose Finder Podcast—the place where we dive into what it truly means to live a life of purpose, discover your authentic self, and build a life aligned with what matters most to you. If you've ever thought, "I’ll be happy when I achieve X" only to find that reaching that goal didn’t bring the fulfillment you expected, then this episode is for you.



This episode features the incredible Charcee Starks—coach, speaker, and the visionary behind The House and the Woods. Charcee isn’t just someone talking about purpose; she’s living it out loud, unapologetically, and with every fiber of her being. In today’s conversation, Charcee drops some real gems on how we need to redefine success on our own terms, especially when life doesn’t follow the script we thought was written for us. She opens up about the pivotal moments that led her to shift her career, rebuild after a devastating heartbreak, and finally learn to live in alignment with her deepest desires—even when it meant completely reimagining everything she thought she wanted.



But here’s the kicker: This episode isn’t just about the wins—it’s about what happens when those wins don’t feel as fulfilling as you expected.



Want to know why hitting your goals might still leave you feeling unfulfilled? Charcee will reveal why reaching that next milestone doesn’t always lead to happiness, and how she had to make peace with what she needed to grieve—letting go of the life she thought she was meant to live in order to create room for the one that was waiting for her.
