On this episode of On Purpose, I sat down with Julianne Hough. She's an American dance actress, singer and Emmy award winning choreographer. 

How often have you accomplished something great and took no time to stop and celebrate? When we don't celebrate, we forget to build a memory and memories are what our lives are made of. Julianne reminds us of the importance of developing the skill set of reconnecting with yourself, trusting your body & having a creative outlet. Text Jay Shetty 310-997-4177

Julianne Hough: ON How To Feel Satisfied With Your Life & Create Beautiful Memories Along The Way

In this live conversation, Jay sits down at the AT&T Performing Arts Center in Dallas with Matthew Hussey for an honest and refreshing discussion about modern love, dating, and relationships. Together, they unpack why dating feels so exhausting today, how we confuse chemistry with emotional chaos, and why real connection is often quieter, steadier, and healthier than we expect. Their conversation challenges the idea of “finding the one” and instead reminds us that great relationships are something we build over time through trust, consistency, and emotional maturity.

From setting healthy standards to learning how to communicate your needs without fear, this episode is full of relatable insights for anyone navigating love in today’s world. Jay and Matthew also explore the importance of self-worth, emotional safety, and trusting yourself enough to walk away from relationships that no longer serve you. It’s a thoughtful reminder that love shouldn’t make you lose yourself, and that the right relationship should help you feel more like yourself than ever before.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How to Stop Chasing Chemistry

How to Set Healthy Standards

How to Communicate Your Needs Clearly 

How to Trust Yourself Again

How to Date Without Losing Yourself

How to Break Toxic Dating Patterns

How to Create a Strong Relationship

The right relationship will never require you to abandon yourself, shrink your needs, or constantly prove your worth. Real love grows through honesty, patience, consistency, and the courage to stay true to who you are.

Matthew Hussey: The #1 Dating Mistake Keeping You Stuck (Focus On THIS Over Chemistry and Build a Lasting Relationship)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/1138bf82-a1fb-4908-a75f-b457006068d8/transcript

What if certainty is what’s actually keeping you stuck?

Today Jay sits down with philosopher and creator Alex O’Connor for a deeply thought-provoking conversation about consciousness, certainty, religion, and the questions that quietly shape the way we live. Alex opens up about growing up rebellious, struggling in school, and feeling disconnected from traditional systems before discovering philosophy and the search for truth. Together, they explore why so many people feel pressure to have life figured out too early, and why curiosity, self-awareness, and the willingness to question your beliefs may matter more than having all the answers.

Jay and Alex unpack the mysteries of the human mind, the illusion of self, the limits of science, and humanity’s fear of death. Drawing from neuroscience, philosophy, and Eastern traditions, Alex challenges the idea that life can be fully explained through logic alone, while reflecting on how uncertainty can lead to deeper understanding rather than fear. This episode is an invitation to think beyond labels and rigid beliefs, and a reminder that some of life’s most meaningful discoveries begin when we stop pretending we’re certain about everything.

In this episode you'll learn:

How to Find What You’re Truly Good At

How to Think Beyond Traditional Success

How to Question Your Deepest Beliefs

How to Balance Logic and Intuition

How to Stop Living on Autopilot

How to Become Comfortable With Uncertainty

Your doubts don’t make you weak, they make you human. And sometimes the bravest thing you can do is admit you’re still learning, while continuing to search for truth, purpose, and peace along the way.

If you’re ready to question everything you thought you knew about consciousness, religion, truth, and what it means to be human, Alex O’Connor’s Within Reason podcast is where philosophy becomes deeply personal. Link here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/within-reason/id1458675168

Alex O’Connor: #1 Shift That Stops Endless Overthinking (FINALLY Get Unstuck)

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/f9c8c7ed-ab26-4f17-84c0-b4550026512d/transcript

Today, Jay breaks down seven mindset shifts that have fundamentally changed how he approaches pain, relationships, purpose, and growth. This isn’t surface-level inspiration. It’s the kind of perspective that stays with you, reshaping how you think in hard moments and how you show up every single day.

Jay challenges the idea that clarity comes before action, showing instead that purpose is built through movement, experimentation, and courage. Most people don’t fail because they lack discipline. They fail because their environment quietly shapes their habits, energy, and identity over time. From the stories we tell ourselves to the relationships we choose, Jay reveals how our internal narrative drives everything, from resilience to self-worth.

In this episode you'll learn:

How to Heal From the People Who Trigger You

How to Stop Waiting and Start Moving Forward

How to Build an Environment That Supports Growth

How to Recognize the Patterns Keeping You Stuck

How to Create Stronger Relationships Through Daily Habits

How to Practice Mindsets That Actually Change Your Life

The way you think shapes the way you live, and even the smallest shift in perspective can begin changing the direction of your life. You do not need to have everything figured out to move forward. You only need the courage to take one honest step today.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
