She had a 99.85 ATAR, a full scholarship to the university, and was an all-rounded student. The opportunities for Liz’s future were endless!But she was directionless and without a purpose. Liz had absolutely no idea what she wanted to do with her life, or who she wanted to become.Ever since she’s been on a mission to transform the way that we educate young people about their careers, and transform our education system into one that is relevant, empowering and purposeful.Liz founded Purposeful all the way back in 2018, touching hundreds of lives and building a community bigger and stronger than she could have ever imagined!And today we go into her story, the frameworks and processes she uses to help young people figure out what they want to do.Thanks to Student Edge for helping set up this interview, they have created a new online program that teaches all the practical life skills we should have learnt in school, skills I teach on this program but in a more structured format and awesome mentors. check them out at Studentedge.org.As per usual please DM me on Instagram if you enjoy this episode and if you are in Sydney make sure you come along to my information night and check out my upcoming program.

Om Podcasten

I started the Driven Young Podcast as a way to help educate and inspire the younger generation. There are plenty of amazing podcasts out there but I find very few tailors their content to those in high-school and uni. Even the ones that claim they do seem to go off track and fail to keep their message clear and simple for the younger generation to understand.I believe our world is changing so fast, the current education system can’t keep up and is left teaching us old and outdated skills no longer relevant in the workplace.This podcast explores what I believe should have been taught in school and aims to help people realise the world is different from when their parents grew up and we must make relevant decisions based on the world we live in currently not the world people used to live in
