Why INFJs and Empaths Feel Lost

Are you drifting through life with a deep sense that you're meant for something more — but no idea what that something is? In this episode, Jenny unpacks why empaths and INFJs so often feel lost, heavy with purpose yet unsure how to live it. You'll learn why purpose isn’t something you find — it’s something you uncover by living, experimenting, and listening to your own energy. We explore: • The difference between purpose and passion• How emotional neglect and over-seriousness block your sense of meaning• Why feeling lost is a necessary part of the path• How shiny object syndrome and side quests can be clues, not distractions• The trap of over-literalizing your interests• And why the universe responds to courage, not clarity This one’s a deep breath and a flashlight for anyone wandering through the fog. — 🔮 Work with me (coaching, archetypes, self-mastery): https://www.jennydobson.com/services#coaching 💌 Join my email list + get free resources: https://www.jennydobson.com [https://www.jennydobson.com] 🎓 Support my therapy degree + creative work: https://www.gofundme.com/f/jenny-finish-her-therapy-degree
