Dr. Dave Vago on How to Live a More Meaningful Life

Unlocking the Secrets to Self-Integration and Human Flourishing

We all want to live a life that matters—but what if the key isn’t chasing purpose, but rewiring how we experience it?

In this enlightening conversation, I sit down with Dr. Dave Vago, a neuroscientist and mindfulness expert whose work bridges ancient contemplative wisdom and cutting-edge science. Together, we explore the deep connection between mindfulness, mental health, and the human need to feel significant.
