What do you think of when you hear the word “purpose”? If you’re like most people, you might think of the common question we all ask at some point: “What is my life’s purpose?” Next you might wonder, “How do I achieve my purpose?” From there, our brains tend to defer to the established linear paradigm that involves clearly directed goals and a singular focus: “If I do task A and take action B, I will achieve goal C.”

This way of thinking often leaves us feeling like our purpose, and our ability to achieve it, is just another difficult task on our never-ending to-do list. Purpose can start to become more of a burden than a joy — but it doesn’t have to be that way.

Through teaching self-inquiry, purpose coach and conscious leadership consultant Wendy May invites people to redefine purpose for themselves and their lives. In her new book, Regenerative Purpose, Wendy helps people navigate this life-changing journey.
