Why can’t I figure out what to do with my life?

If you’re reading this post, I’m guessing that you’ve searched high and low trying to figure out what to do with your life.

Maybe you’ve paid for career assessments, been to workshops or retreats, spent a month at a remote ashram in India, have driven your family and friends crazy asking them for the answer—and still haven’t found what you were looking for (if Bono can end a sentence with a preposition, then so can I).

Maybe, like me, you sat on the couch for a few months after college eating frozen Otis Spunkmeyer chocolate chip cookie dough and watching Oprah, hoping the answer would hit you light a bolt of lightening one day. It didn’t work for me. I gained 30 pounds and got depressed, though not necessarily in that order. And I doubt it worked for you.

And so, out of complete desperation, here you are. Welcome. You’ve come to the right place.

I spent the last almost twenty years searching for an answer to this question. Along the way people told me that what I was looking for didn’t exist, that work wasn’t supposed to be fun, that I was being unrealistic and much worse.  They were wrong.

I discovered that I do have the answers I seek—and so do you. I just couldn’t hear them. The purpose of this site is to help you discover why you can’t hear the answers you’re looking for and to teach you how to hear them again—so that you can stop thinking about what to do with your life and start doing it.
