Finding Purpose – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, Adam sits down with Fern Murray, interior designer, founder of Fern's Nest Interior Design, and creative force behind Social Tide, a boutique social media agency helping brands tell their stories with clarity and intention.

Originally from England, Fern moved to the United States over a decade ago with what was meant to be a one-year adventure as an au pair. That year turned into a life. From navigating cultural shifts and personal growth, to building two businesses rooted in creativity and connection, Fern's journey is a powerful reminder that purpose often unfolds through unexpected reinvention.

Fern opens up about growing up in England, her parents' influence (a builder father and teacher mother), and how early exposure to home renovation quietly shaped her passion for interior design. She shares the experience that accelerated her maturity — serving as emotional support for two young girls who had just lost their mother — and how that season reshaped her independence and resilience.

We dive into:
✨ Moving from England to the U.S. and building a life from scratch
✨ Marriage, homesickness, and navigating identity across cultures
✨ The psychology of interior design — scale, color theory, and how spaces affect mood
✨ Turning a creative passion into a thriving design business
✨ Why homes should reflect the people who live in them — not the designer
✨ Building Social Tide and helping brands develop authentic digital presence
✨ The power of storytelling and founder visibility in business
✨ Social media mistakes most small business owners make
✨ Consistency, authenticity, and evolving with digital culture
✨ Why connection is at the heart of purpose

Fern shares that for her, purpose isn't a single destination — it's evolution. It's growth. It's education. It's connection. Whether designing a family's forever home or helping a brand find its voice, her work centers around helping people feel aligned — in their space, in their business, and in themselves.

This is a thoughtful conversation about reinvention, motherhood, creativity, entrepreneurship, and the courage it takes to build something meaningful far from where you started.

In this episode, Adam sits down with Jamie Lee Zeno, professionally known as Jay Lee — a licensed esthetician, oncology-certified skincare specialist, life and health coach, law enforcement sergeant, and beauty and wellness entrepreneur. Jamie is the founder and CEO of Jay Lee's Beauty Lounge, a luxury med spa brand based in Westchester County, with a flagship location in Eastchester and an upcoming Hartsdale storefront opening this February.

Jamie's story is a powerful reflection of alignment, discipline, and trusting your inner calling — even when it means redefining success. Born and raised in Brooklyn, she grew up inspired by parents who modeled sacrifice, work ethic, and resilience. While law enforcement initially felt like her path, Jamie shares how COVID became a pivotal moment that helped her reconnect with a deeper calling: helping people heal, regain confidence, and feel whole again through beauty, wellness, and self-care.

This conversation explores the contrast between two demanding worlds — law enforcement and entrepreneurship — and how Jamie learned to honor both without losing herself. She speaks candidly about navigating burnout, standing firm in her values, and choosing integrity over convenience, even when it came at a personal cost.

At its core, this episode is about self-trust, discipline, and living in alignment.

We dive into:
✨ Growing up in Brooklyn and the influence of family, sacrifice, and structure
✨ Lessons from law enforcement on empathy, humility, and non-judgment
✨ Transitioning from public service to entrepreneurship during COVID
✨ Building Beauty with Jay Lee from the ground up
✨ Leadership rooted in selflessness, honesty, and accountability
✨ Why discipline — not motivation — drives real transformation
✨ Creating safe, healing spaces where clients feel seen and heard
✨ The power of routine, patience, and small consistent habits
✨ Trusting intuition and walking by faith when logic says otherwise
✨ Purpose as living your truth and creating lasting impact

Jamie also shares deeply personal insights on breaking generational patterns, developing self-awareness, and understanding how upbringing shapes mindset, discipline, and self-worth. Her work goes far beyond aesthetics — it's about helping people reconnect with themselves and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

This is a raw, inspiring conversation for anyone navigating career transitions, burnout, leadership growth, or the courage it takes to choose alignment over approval.

In this episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Dr. Sean Altman — a Functional Medicine Doctor specializing in orthopedic, neurological, and regenerative medicine — for a powerful conversation on healing, health literacy, and what it truly means to take ownership of your well-being.

Born and raised in Westchester County, Dr. Altman's journey into medicine was shaped not just by education, but by lived experience. After years of sports injuries, concussions from ice hockey, Lyme disease, car accidents, and chronic pain, he found himself stuck in a system that told him nothing was wrong — even when his body clearly said otherwise. That disconnect became the catalyst for a deeper pursuit of answers.

Through functional medicine, systems-based diagnostics, and regenerative therapies, Dr. Altman rebuilt his own health — and now dedicates his work to helping others do the same. At the center of his practice is a holistic approach that looks beyond symptoms to uncover root causes, leveraging tools like real-time musculoskeletal ultrasound, nervous system regulation, gut health optimization, and preventative longevity strategies.

This episode explores how the body is designed to heal, why modern medicine often misses the full picture, and how informed, empowered patients can radically change their health outcomes. It's a conversation about resilience, responsibility, and redefining what "healthy" really means — physically, mentally, and emotionally.

• Dr. Altman's early experiences with sports injuries, concussions, and chronic pain

• Why traditional imaging and lab work often fail to tell the full story

• The importance of nervous system regulation and gut health in overall healing

• How hormetic stress (exercise, fasting, cold exposure) builds long-term resilience

• Healthspan vs. lifespan — and why longevity is about quality, not just years

• The role of exercise, sleep, and strength training in disease prevention

• Why supplements and hormone therapies require individualized data, not trends

• Teaching patients to become informed, empowered participants in their own care

• Using symptoms as signals instead of something to suppress

• Finding purpose through service, education, and systemic change in medicine

This week, Adam sits down with two extraordinary humans who are reshaping the cultural heartbeat of Fairfield County: Marcelo Guzzo and Anelle Beer Guzzo, co-founders of Greenwich Opera — a rising arts institution blending world-class performance, education, and community connection.

Marcelo is a Uruguayan-Italian baritone praised by The New York Times, The Boston Globe, and Opera News for his commanding voice and magnetic stage presence. He has performed lead roles in major opera houses worldwide and collaborated with legends like Andrea Bocelli and Plácido Domingo. Today, he serves as Executive Director of Greenwich Opera — bringing his global artistry into an intimate, local mission.

Anelle is a producer, artist, and former finance executive from Cape Town, South Africa. Her career spans global banking, humanitarian work, creative production, and meaningful initiatives supporting children and incarcerated mothers. Her lifelong connection to music, shaped by her family's legacy and the loss of her twin sister, powers the heart-centered vision she brings to Greenwich Opera.

Together, they are building a cultural house that redefines what opera can be: accessible, soulful, community-driven, and deeply human.

🎼 The love story that sparked a mission — a chance encounter on Broadway that turned into a partnership in life, art, and purpose.
🌍 What cultural heritage really means — how their South African and Uruguayan/Italian roots shape the energy, values, and storytelling behind their work.
🎭 Why performing arts are more essential than ever — especially for youth growing up in a noisy, overstimulated digital world.
💔 Transforming pain into purpose — Anelle's promise to her twin sister, the healing power of music, and how loss became the foundation for her life's mission.
🚪 Hearing 'no' as a 'not yet' — how resilience, humility, and unwavering vision drive their commitment to building something bigger than themselves.
🌱 Building Greenwich Opera from the ground up — the Manor Series, education initiatives, school programs, luxury partnerships, and long-term plans for festivals and community collaborations.
🕊️ Art as stillness, connection, and spiritual freedom — why live opera moves people in ways that modern life rarely does.
👨‍👩‍👦 Raising the next generation with art at the center — what they want their son, his peers, and an entire community to experience.
💡 Purpose as service — seeing who needs something they cannot give themselves, and leading with humility, love, and soul.

This episode is emotional, powerful, and deeply human. Marcelo and Anelle share wisdom that transcends art — touching on identity, love, spirituality, vulnerability, and the courage to dream the impossible dream.

Amie's story is one of resilience, curiosity, and a deep commitment to understanding human performance at every level — physical, emotional, and energetic.

From her early career in corporate America to building a thriving wellness brand in Westchester and Fairfield Counties, Amie shares openly about the turning points that pushed her toward entrepreneurship, the personal experiences that fueled her passion for recovery and strength training, and why she believes every person deserves access to the tools that help them feel powerful in their own skin.

We dive into:
✨ How Amie built Better Body Pulse from a vision into a growing movement
✨ The connection between strength, emotional resilience, and confidence
✨ The importance of accountability and structure in personal growth

In this week's episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Penny Goffman — an innovative entrepreneur, community builder, and strategic experiential storyteller whose work has transformed the way brands connect with women through purpose-driven experiences.

Penny is the former Head of Community at HeyMama, where she fostered deep connections among entrepreneurial mothers nationwide through curated events, partnerships, and programming. She previously built, scaled, and sold Jolie Gotique, the first mobile fashion boutique of its kind in Fairfield County, and has served as a stylist and emcee for iconic brands including Bloomingdale's, Lord & Taylor, Alice + Olivia, and Athleta.

Her work and voice have been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Greenwich Lifestyle Magazine, Greenwich Magazine, Westchester Family, HeyMama, and on multiple podcasts including That Greenwich Life with Dorothy Simone.

In this deeply reflective and energizing conversation, Penny opens up about:

✨ Growing up in Montreal and fearlessly transitioning into the New York City fast-paced world
✨ Shifting out of finance into entrepreneurship and motherhood with purpose
✨ How Jolie Gotique became a community-driven fashion movement — and why it succeeded
✨ The lessons she learned leading community for hundreds of women nationwide
✨ The power of showing up with purpose (and what really happens when you do)
✨ Knowing your value — especially as a new entrepreneur
✨ Why routine, alignment, and "boring" sacred rituals keep her grounded
✨ Building female-led communities that elevate, connect, and transform
✨ The importance of self-inquiry, shadow work, and looking "under the hood" to find true purpose
✨ How to navigate relationships, boundaries, energy, and maintaining authentic connections
✨ Why purpose, for her, is rooted in deep connection — with self, family, work, and home

Penny's wisdom is honest, grounded, and refreshingly real. If you're a purpose-driven entrepreneur, a community-builder, or a woman seeking deeper clarity, this episode will hit home.

In this week's episode of The Finding Purpose Podcast, Adam sits down with Ginger Richardson, founder of KIN Sauna — a mobile, wood-burning sauna and cold plunge experience redefining community wellness in Fairfield, Connecticut.

Ginger's story is one of reinvention — a journey that threads together design, healing, motherhood, and the power of human connection. Originally from Canada, Ginger's life has taken her across continents — from the U.S. to Asia — before landing in Connecticut, where she discovered a calling far beyond business: creating spaces where people could heal, connect, and grow together.

What began as a personal search for clarity and strength during a period of transition evolved into KIN Sauna — a sanctuary built on the belief that true wellness starts with courage. The courage to sit in stillness. The courage to embrace discomfort. The courage to show up as you are.

In this conversation, Ginger opens up about entrepreneurship, faith, and doing the inner work required to lead an authentic life. From navigating divorce and rediscovering self-worth, to building a business rooted in community and purpose, she reminds us that transformation often begins where comfort ends.

• How personal challenges led to the creation of KIN Sauna

• The power of sauna, cold plunge, and community to restore balance and clarity
