Eric Teplitz on the Chapter X podcast

November 23, 2022

If you feel unfulfilled in life, it may be because you’re on a path that doesn’t allow you to explore your interests or passions. As a society, we put a lot of pressure on following our passions—but what if the trick to finding purpose was really about lowering expectations?

Eric Teplitz is a “life enthusiast” and personal coach. In addition to pursuing his own personal growth, he’s passionate about helping others open themselves up to a more expansive sense of what is possible. As a coach, Eric provides a space where others can overcome resistance to following their passions, curiosities, and dreams so they can live a more fulfilling life.

Eric joins me today to share his journey of twists and turns, the power of brushing up against your limits, and how to approach endeavors with a spirit of exploration.

We discussed:

  • What happens when expectations don’t match your experience
  • How repeated career disappointments took a cumulative toll on Eric
  • One major relationship you’re guaranteed to carry with you for life
  • The journey of self-exploration that follows setting an impossible goal
  • How to explore your potential by purposely testing your own limits
