6. Creating a Purpose-Filled Life with Trav Bell
Manage episode 319963340 series 2987331
Trav Bell, aka The Bucket List Guy, is on a mission to help 10 million people lead purposefully fulfilled lives. But, his career didn’t exactly start that way. Growing up in a seaside town in Victoria, Australia, Trav excelled in swimming and surfing and went on to study physical education in college. He fell in love with the coaching aspect of physical training and eventually became one of the first people to franchise personal fitness training studios in Australia. After 16 years, he realized that he was disconnected from the purpose behind his mission and left the business.
Trav is candid about his struggles with mild depression and finding his purpose after closing down his business. He discovered positive psychology, neuro-linguistic programming, and life coaching, which eventually led him to launch his career as a motivational speaker. He knew he wanted to help people have more meaning, purpose, and fulfillment in both their work in their life.
About eight years ago, he posed a question during a speaking event: What wakes you up in the morning? He had a lightbulb moment in that same session when someone in the audience referred to him as ‘the bucket list guy,’ and he developed his brand around that idea.
Trav now runs the Certified Bucket List Coaching Program, is the author of The Bucket List Blueprint, host of The Bucket Life List Podcast, and has checked ‘TedX speaker’ off his own bucket list! He also oversees the Bucket List Foundation, which is a charity that gives bucket list wishes to terminally ill seniors. Listen to today’s episode to learn more about Trav’s regret-free lifestyle and why you shouldn’t wait to start checking things off your bucket list!
