If you don’t know what your purpose is, or you aren’t sure how to fulfil it – here’s some inspiration. Four purpose-driven people tell us their stories of how they found meaning in life.
There is no ‘one size fits all’ method for finding your purpose. Some people may know from day one what they were put on this earth to do, but, for many of us, figuring that out will be a process. You might even find one event can dramatically change your way of thinking. However you get there, your purpose will be the thing that drives you out of bed in the morning, eager and excited to follow it. We spoke to four inspiring individuals about what their purpose is, and how they discovered it.
Ani Naqvi

Raymond Cloosterman
Our very own CEO Raymond Cloosterman defines purpose in his own way: what gets him up in the morning and where his drive comes from. In his journey to discovering these, both the loss of his father and his mother’s inspirational mindset have shaped how he sees the world. This is Raymond’s story.
Laurien Meuter
Founder of Tiny Miracles, Laurien Meuter knows why she is here on this earth, but she didn’t always. Once a high-flying corporate banker, a life-changing moment spurred her on to quit her job and start a foundation that helps communities in Mumbai break out of the poverty cycle. This is Laurien’s story. .
Ernst Suur
From a young age, Ernst knew what he wanted to do with his life: to make a change in children’s lives. Now, as Director of the incredible NGO War Child, that hasn’t changed. From volunteering as an 18-year-old in Uganda, to running a charity that helps children all over the world deal with the psychological effects of war, this is Ernst's story.
