Do you feel lost and in-limbo with your life/work direction? Uncertain and anxious about how to discover renewed purpose and passion for a new chapter in your life?
When you feel off-track and in uncertain territory, often the most helpful first step is the get a new perspective – a new map for discovering purpose.
In this special episode of our bi-coastal On Purpose Show we I have a stimulating conversation exploring a “Perspective on Purpose.” Instead of interviewing a guest this episode, our format reflects on and weaves together what we’ve heard from our recent inspiring guests – and bring the perspective of your combined 50+ years working with thousands of clients.
We begin this show acknowledging the essential connection between purpose and major lifework transitions. And we borrow a wise transition “map” as a way to organize our conversation.
“Endings and beginnings; emptiness and germination in between, that is the shape of the transition periods in our lives. And these times come far more frequently in our adulthood and cut far more deeply into it than most of us imagine they would.”
~ William Bridges
The middle territory of this map, what Rikk calls the time “between dreams” is often fraught with uncertainty, fear, anxiety and a sense of isolation. Having a map of this territory opens us to a new perspective – a perspective that illuminates the path to renewed passion and purpose.
