What Is Life Purpose Coaching?

Your Life's PathIs there even such a thing as a life’s purpose?  Quite often, people will have some vague notion of what their purpose might be, but rarely is that purpose very clear and specific.  Some people even question whether there’s any specific purpose to life at all.  Either way, for most of us, there’s a yearning that develops in midlife… a calling to be or to do something different… something that “makes a difference.”

Here’s the good news:  Whether you know your life’s purpose or not, you’re living it now, and you have been all your life.  But there’s a downside to living your purpose without clearly understanding what it is. Doing so is inefficient, and produces a greater sense of struggle and angst than is necessary.  Knowing your purpose is like owning a compass that’s always pointing toward True North.  It provides a means for making more informed and fulfilling choices in life, and generates the impetus to pursue those choices with greater energy and commitment.

Life purpose coaching is all about helping people to discover and consciously pursue their own, unique life's purpose.

Are You Ready To Find Your Life’s Purpose?

If your interest goes beyond mere curiosity, here are some specific questions that have helped my clients determine whether they’re ready to discover their life’s purpose:

  • Do you find yourself disengaged from your work, missing a sense of fulfillment during the 40 to 60 hours you invest in work each week?
  • Were you once passionate about your future, but have since lost touch with that passion?
  • Do you find yourself asking the questions:  Why am I here?  Is there a deeper meaning to life?
  • Have you engaged in counseling, therapy, or coaching, searching for answers to life’s deeper questions?
  • Have you read books that explore the topic of life’s meaning and purpose?
  • Are you struggling to make sense of, for example, midlife or life after retirement?
  • Have you experienced major life transitions (e.g., job loss, empty nest, the death of a loved one, separation or divorce, serious illness) giving rise to questions of purpose?

If you answered YES to one or more of these questions, it’s likely that you’re ready to conduct a focused search for your life’s purpose.
