Meaning of Life adalah album studio kedelapan oleh penyanyi pop asal Amerika Serikat Kelly Clarkson. Album ini dirilis pada 27 Oktober 2017 oleh Atlantic Records. Diproduseri eksekutif oleh Clarkson dan Craig Kallman, album ini merupakan rilisan debutnya untuk label tersebut setelah menyelesaikan kontrak rekamannya dan meninggalkan label sebelumnya, RCA Records, yang ia tandatangani setelah memenangkan musim pertama American Idol. Bosan dengan struktur kontrak rekaman sebelumnya di mana dia sangat terbatas pada merilis musik pop, Clarkson ingin mengejar genre yang berbeda— musik soul dan R&B, yang sebelumnya ingin dia buat dan akhirnya menemukan kesempatan untuk melakukannya setelahnya dimasukkan oleh Kallman ke label.

Meaning of Life terinspirasi oleh musik tahun 1990-an dan penyanyi terkemuka Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey, dan Whitney Houston, Clarkson ingin album ini membangkitkan musik yang mirip dengan karya awal para artis tersebut—dengan tujuan keseluruhan untuk mengekspresikan "penuh perasaan" semangat. Untuk mencapai hal ini, Clarkson menugaskan beberapa kolaborator—dari rekanan sebelumnya seperti Jesse Shatkin, Greg Kurstin, Mozella dan Jason Halbert, hingga mitra proyek baru The Monarch, Mick Schultz, Harlœ dan James Morrison. Lagu-lagu dalam album ini berbagi tema kohesif tentang hubungan antarpribadi dalam kehidupan, berpusat pada subjek cinta dan menjalani momen.

Meaning of Life mendapat tanggapan yang umumnya positif dari kritikus musik, yang memuji kepercayaan diri Clarkson yang baru ditemukan dan kekompakan albumnya. Secara komersial, album ini menjadi album studio kedelapan berturut-turut yang debut di tiga besar tangga lagu Billboard 200. Tiga single dirilis untuk mempromosikan album: "Love So Soft", "I Don't Think About You" dan "Heat", yang pertama dan terakhir menduduki puncak tangga lagu Billboard Dance Club Songs. Meaning of Life menerima dua nominasi Grammy Award untuk Album Vokal Pop Terbaik dan Penampilan Solo Pop Terbaik untuk "Love So Soft" pada acara ke-60 dan ke-61. Tur konser pendukungnya dengan nama yang sama mengunjungi berbagai arena di seluruh Amerika Serikat antara Januari hingga Maret 2019.
