Releasing the Pressure to Be Your "Best-Self"
For awhile, I was a bit addicted to self-improvement. Always striving to be my "best-self." But I found that I was getting far too caught up in what others defined as being your "best-self," it wasn't MY definition of success. This episode dives into my reflection on this pressure we put on ourselves to "grow" and "become" something greater than what we are in this moment. What if we made the goal just to listen to our own inner compass? Could we learn to trust that growth will come from listening to ourselves, rather than trying to force something to work?

"I Have Too Many Interests."
Would you describe yourself as a multi-passionate person? Do you struggle to "just pick" a path to follow? This episode is for those who feel like there are so many choices they could make to move forward that they freeze in place. I share an exercise I use with my clients to help them "taste test" a potential path for their life that leaves room to pivot if it's not what they truly want or expected.

Inclusion Statement
My goal is to ensure that my podcast, my online presence, feels like an inclusive space for all. My clients come from diverse backgrounds, with diverse experiences. As a trauma-informed coach, I never want to pressure any of my clients to speak about their stories publicly before they're ready (if they are ever ready to do so.) They deserve the right to process what they learn, making these big life changes in a way that feels safe and comforting for them. For many, safety means privacy. Or at least, privacy for now. So, keep in mind, those who felt like it was a YES to be interviewed this season, happen to all identify as women. But I do not work solely with individuals who identify as women. My clients are of all ages, gender identities, race, etc. My client's stories are each beautiful, unique, and most importantly, theirs. The stories I will be sharing still represent themes that feel very universal. My hope is that we can see the similarities and that their wisdom and insights offer you support on your own journey.

What's Next?
Now you have the 3 pillars of purpose development, my toolkit, and my whole framework. Now, we’ll chat about the costs of not doing the work. The cost of staying where you are, is staying where you are. If you’ve stayed with me this long, it’s clear that you don’t want to stay put. There are health implications in the stress and anxiety that comes with living life unfulfilled. We’re not going to trip over a rock and unearth our purpose in life. Small, subtle changes turn into big changes over time. The implementation of these tools is something you’ll do over a lifetime. What is going to hold you accountable? Do you need an accountability partner? Reminders on your calendar? Or do you need more support?

Putting Together Your Puzzle
The pillars themselves are simple, but they don’t always feel easy. Here is where you use self-reflection to figure out where you’re getting stuck. What is causing you to feel lost or confused? I find that if you’re feeling stuck, one or all of these 3 things needs to be addressed: Direction, knowing which way you want to move in next Confidence to take action Resilience to recover from obstacles quickly and continue moving forward We start by discovering your unique skills, abilities, and talents and how they’ve come forward in your life. Your sense of direction comes from your internal compass. What are your natural gifts? What are your core values? What are your non-negotiables? Every decision you make should be from the foundation of those values. That makes it easier to know if it’s a yes or no for you. Next is pinpointing what beliefs, patterns, or habits are getting in the way of moving in the direction you want to go.

Your Purposeful Experiment
Now it’s time to do some reflection, so you’ll need a notebook. My purpose formula is your unique talents, gifts and strengths, plus the experiences and education you’ve lived. Those equal your unique impact. The first step is to create awareness of what you’ve learned from your life experiences, the skills you’ve developed, and your limiting beliefs that are holding you back from using these gifts to create a fulfilling life. The second pillar of building new foundations is to take stock of what you’ve learned and figure out what needs to change in your life, then take action on it. Third, maintenance tools are necessary to stick with the new foundation of habits and patterns that are truly in line with the impact you want to make. This work is not one-and-done, and it is not linear. Today we go in depth how to work through these pillars and set your path.

What Purpose Isn't
From a very young age, we’re asked what we want to be when we grow up. The problem with this question is it’s based around what we want to do, not who we want to be. Purpose is not an occupation. Jobs are external and often temporary. When a certain career path isn’t an option anymore, we can feel empty. The 3 pillars of my purpose development program look like this: Creating self-awareness through self-exploration Build new foundations and take action Maintain it. How do you keep yourself accountable? I’ll walk you through these pillars in the next episodes, but for now, know that you can stop looking externally for your purpose. It’s inside of you.

My Journey To Purpose
Next time you find yourself making comparisons between yourself and someone you admire, I encourage you to do some research into what they’ve been through to get to where they are. You may be on Chapter 2 of your path, but they may be on Chapter 10. There really isn’t a comparison. I thought I knew what I wanted to do “when I grew up,” but as I got farther into schooling for clinical psychology I realized that I would burn out quickly. I tried some other paths, only to have the rug pulled out from under me again and again, until I finally settled into the things I really loved doing and created my own work around that. What part of this story held up a mirror to you? In what aspects of my story could you see yourself and where are you still getting stuck?

What Is Your Purpose?
Purpose defined: Purpose is an intention to make an impact in the world. Your purpose is a unique blend of your gifts, talents, and strengths. Even if you don't think you have any, or that they aren't "valuable." In this podcast, we're going to explore purpose as something that can be developed, not something that is simply found. I'm going to put you back in the driver's seat and give you the toolkit you need to develop your purpose, at any age and stage of life. This work will allow you to create meaning in every part of your life.
