A Life by Design: Purpose
FAQ
Overview
In A Life By Design: Purpose, you will learn how to break down the overwhelming complexities of change into manageable steps, discover ways to bridge feelings of isolation by building meaningful connections, and develop techniques to cut through the fog and confusion of muddled transitions, empowering you to move forward with a renewed sense of direction and confidence.
Do I have to attend every session?
Yes. If you miss a one-on-one session, you’ll be asked to reschedule your session with the possibility of incurring a fee. The time you put into your life creation determines the benefit you receive. This isn't about me or the work I do for you. It is about you and the work you are willing to do in order to design your life on purpose.
What should I bring?
A notebook and something to write with. Workbooks and worksheets will be provided for you so if you've completed them, then bring those.
How is A Life by Design: Purpose different from The Grief Recovery Method® and from A Life by Design: Crafting?
A Life by Design: Purpose takes you through the steps of identifying your "why," your reason for doing anything of meaning or significance in your life. You will then link that with the transition you are currently moving through to have a anchor during the change and to guide you going forward. The Grief Recovery Method® is a series of steps specifically designed to help you recover from major loss within a set time frame.The focus is on grief, which frequently leads us into a life transition, compels us to question our purpose, and invites us to design our lives with more intention. A Life by Design: Crafting take you through the steps of creating SMART goals, actionable plans, and developing habits of mind that will support you and keep you moving in the direction of your life on purse and with intention. There is some overlap with A Life By Design: Purpose, but where Purpose focuses exclusively on establishing a solid ground on which to build, Crafting focuses on framing your life and getting specific about the goals and plans that will actually bring that dream into completion.
Do I need to take any course in a particular order?
No, however, most of us have unresolved grief. It is frequently the reason we haven't been able to design our lives or follow through on our goals. It is also true that setting a goal without being firmly anchored in your purpose will often mean you don't follow through. Ideally, you would address your loss, discover your purpose, then move on to creating a plan, but none of the courses have the pre-requisite of any other courses. The difference in outcome from taking them sequentially is only in how likely you are to follow-through in actually creating the life you've dreamed about and designed.
