Product Manager at WebMD Health Services
Last week, we welcomed Cathy Durbin, MBA, Product Manager at WebMD Health Services. Cathy delved into the importance of having a sense of purpose in life, career, and family. She emphasized that purpose drives us and gives us a reason to get up in the morning. At WebMD Health Services, they believe that understanding our “why” is crucial for achieving success and building resilience.
Cathy also explored how setting and achieving personally meaningful goals is fundamental to WebMD’s new initiative, Side Quests. Their innovative program empowers users to take charge of their challenges and goals, creating a personalized path to well-being.
The power of 'WHY'
Sense of agency
• Having a purpose gives you a sense that you can make things happen.
• Increases life satisfaction due to successes.
Social connection
• Defining purpose and meaning often involves looking outside yourself and identifying who you would like to positively impact.
Perspective
• Finding the strength to thrive in challenging situations.
• Grounding yourself in your “why” reduces the impact of fears and anxiety.
