59. Fulfilling Your Soul’s Deeper Yearnings

Do you feel a quiet longing inside you that you keep writing off as fantasy?  

In this episode, Ben and Mitra explore the idea that each of us carries a set of deeper yearnings—longings that reconnect us to ourselves and to something essential. They reflect on how these quiet truths often get buried beneath ambition, practicality, fear, or inherited expectations, and what begins to shift when we simply turn toward them.The conversation opens a gentle inquiry: how to listen for what truly enlivens you, notice when you’ve drifted away, and begin again—without needing to change everything at once.

What You’ll Learn: 

• How to distinguish between what genuinely nourishes you and what you’ve been conditioned to chase

• Why fulfillment has more to do with alignment than achievement

• How small, honest permissions can reopen a deeper sense of aliveness

If you’re someone who ….

• feels successful on the outside but quietly disconnected on the inside

• keeps postponing a creative, soulful, or deeply personal longing

• wonders whether it’s “too late” or “impractical” to honor what truly matters

…then you’ll want to be sure to listen in on this episode. Enjoy!
