People are complicated and nuanced. I believe that the most humanizing tool we can use to understand one another is storytelling. Stories are the creative transformation of a complex past into a clear and meaningful teacher for our future and a currency in connection today. I spent five years writing my own story and really enjoy learning about other people through their own voice while telling their stories. In my work as an advisor, I have found that it is helpful to hear stories of others to guide and motivate us in achieving our goals.
Purpose inspires passion, sustains pursuit, breeds peace, resolves pain, instills pride and welcomes pleasure. Purpose gives breath to life. Purpose is the answer to the all important question... Why am I here? Who knows. I mean honestly. Who knows.
Here’s what I do know. All I WANT to do is create. To listen. To remain curious and ask questions. To connect. To tell stories. To elevate. To help people build something that makes them proud. To share knowledge where I am able. To partner when a companion is needed. To empower in risk taking. I really just want to help people feel powerful. So. That’s what I’m here trying to do. Thanks for standing by me as I try to figure this thing out.
This is a space where I will share stories of people courageously following their North Star, pursuing their purpose and a life that feels meaningful to them. We will listen to personal pivots, character traits, life lessons and decision making that I believe to be empowering and intriguing in their courageous attempt at their one precious life.
