Episode 33: Designing a purposeful life, the uncertainty of what's to come and how to futurize yourself, with body-centred stress coach and futurist Tom Meyers

The Life Well Lived Podcast with Shane Breslin

Tom Meyers is an osteopath and body-centred stress-coach based in Brussels, Belgium, and also a forward thinker and facilitator of change, with the aim of helping to empower people to live well in body, mind and spirit and lead with resilience in an exponentially changing world.

He has also become a thought leader on the topic of The Future, and how we might proactively build the future version of ourselves. On that topic of looking forward, he speaks regularly at events, is the author of the book Futurize Yourself and is currently busy organising TEDxVilvoorde Online, which due to the pandemic will take place in a virtual setting on October 10th next.

In this episode we chatted about:

1. Tom’s journey from chef and failing, directionless businessman, through two decades of self-development to his new career as an osteopath and body-centred stress coach
2. How finding purpose, a sense of life and contributing to the world, and the innate feeling that comes with doing something that is meaningful
3. Why he resists most tools and products, instead discovering the ability to work from anywhere without requiring anything apart from his mind and his knowledge and his skills
4. Finding out who you are while working within your field of potential
5. The changing world and how we might prepare ourselves for the uncertain future that comes with exponential change in work, technology and society at large
