Living Your Purpose in the Social Age follows the journey of Kultcha's Founder, Simon Inglis, a Wall Street banker stuck in a downward spiral of depression — a culture of bingeing and booze, fuelled by the endless pursuit of dollar bills. In the midst of the Global Financial Crises in 2008, as the bank brings the system crashing down and ordinary people pay the price, Simon decides something has to change.
Under the guidance of his mentor, Paul, Simon takes stock of his life. He learns how to disconnect from the ideological narratives that have been telling him what he needs to be happy, and truly listen to himself. What he finds is a new story, one written by his unique skills, talents and interests. It is a story that will set Simon on a new path, one in the pursuit of innovation, sustainability, and equality.
Set against the backdrop of Simon's story, Living Your Purpose in the Social Age is a self help manual designed to equip people with the self-awareness and skills they need to connect with their purpose. The books chapters' guide you through a series of steps, designed to nurture personal growth:
