This is the episode opener of the "Fairness with Anna Hall" episode of the What Do You Know To Be True? podcast, to be released on Wednesday, May 22nd.
Nowhere is it written that life is fair. However, fairness is our barometer for how we fit into the systems and context we survive or thrive in.
Anna Hall is a beacon of warmth, authenticity, humanity, and vulnerability. She is a powerhouse of energy when it comes to teaching people about discovering their purpose.
The source of her energy?
It’s an undeniable and powerful sense of fairness.
Anna is an expert in helping others find and live into their purpose.
With over 50% of people searching for their purpose, we need people like Anna Hall to help us discover that it’s not something that needs to be found but re-discovered.
Anna believes that our purpose is like our immunity system: it’s totally unique to us and that we are born with it and it is revealed through life’s experiences.
Anna shares that not only are we better when we individually live into our purpose and treat others with fairness, but that we are collectively better when more of us live into our purpose, and treat ourself with fairness.
Through the stories she shares, the work she performs, and the energy she radiates, Anna is a role model for living into purpose.
In this episode, Anna answers the following questions:
- What is the meaning of fairness?
- How do we find our purpose?
- What is the role of joy in purpose?
- How does purpose help conquer fear?
And then there’s joy fuel. It’s like rocket fuel, same boost of power, but smells a lot better.
My favorite quote from the episode: “When I get in touch with my purpose, that is how I move through fear.”
What I know to be true about the episode: It is such a privilege to witness Anna's energy and strength in conviction in everything she says about joy, purpose, and fairness.
What I learned from the episode: I learn so much from Anna each time we talk, but today's top learning: purpose is the anecdote for fear.

ABOUT THE PODCAST
Charting a path to purpose starts with a deeper understanding of one’s superhero power and how to make a meaningful impact in service of others.
This podcast is for anyone who helps other people unlock their challenges and achieve their potential. Our audience wants to think deeply about their work and how to increase the positive impact it has in service of others.
The goal of these conversations is not to try to emulate it or “hack” our way to a new talent. Instead, the intention is to learn more about their experiences with their superhero power, and in doing so maybe learn something about the special talent in each of us that makes us unique.
Our guests bring humility, insights, gratitude, and humor as they delve deep into their experiences, learnings, and impact their "superhero power" has had when used successfully.
The path to purpose: Ordinary people, extraordinary talent, meaningful impact in the service of others.
