You’ll Die Without Ever Knowing Why You Were Here

*** Support My Work - https://ko-fi.com/jamiefitzjohn/tip ***

My name is Jamie Fitzjohn, and in this video I explore the question of meaning: what are we here to do, and why does life feel so empty without purpose? I think out loud, consider different perspectives, and open up the discussion so we can reflect together. Hopefully you’ll find a little wisdom here for your own path.
