Work wasn’t meant to be something you endure just to enjoy life later. In this clip from the Shed Advisor Webinar, Titus Kuepfer shares a transformational realization: meaningful work isn’t something you escape from—it’s something you’re created for.

True fulfillment comes from doing the work itself with excellence and intention. 🎤 Guest: Titus Kuepfer 🎙 Host: Steve Byler 🎯 Topic: Business with Purpose
