How to Find a Calling That Feeds You | Chela Davison
About this episode
This week we’re hanging with our friend Chela Davison — facilitator, sacred mischief maker, former master coach, and writer of the Substack, Wisdotainment.
She brings her trademark mix of depth and irreverence to the question of what it means to live a “regenerative calling”, a purposeful life that actually feeds you instead of wringing you dry.
Chela walks us through 4 dimensions of personal calling:
1. Interiority – the pulse of what’s meaningful inside you.
2. Aptitude – the weird mix of things you’re naturally good at and the skills you might still need.
3. Contribution – how your doing lands in the world and loops back as feedback.
4. Regeneration – how you stay resourced, supported, and non-crispy while doing all that.
It’s a conversation about vocation, yes, but also about capacity, cycles, and what it means to build a life that keeps you sparkly and invigorated.
-------------
We talk about:
* Why “purpose” culture leaves so many of us exhausted
* How to work with your capacities instead of against them
* The difference between extraction and regeneration
* How to know when your calling needs composting

The Adventure:
Chela invites us to feel into our own calling through these four lenses: what’s pulsing with meaning, what capacities are growing, where your gifts want to land, and what actually keeps you resourced. A full-body check-in with your life!
