"I truly know my mission, and now I know how to teach others to do the same!"

Quick summary

After years of feeling trapped by the belief that her identity was tied to her career, Kathy discovered her true life purpose and mission. The program freed her from guilt and cultural expectations, bringing her to tears of happiness for the first time in years.

My parents are immigrants and education was so important for them so I got my degrees in neuroscience & psychology. From there I got caught up in the culturescape that my identity is what I do as my career. I followed my intuition & took a leap to go on a journey to become a life coach. With this program I was able to solidify my life purpose (I can't tell you how many times I've Google "what should I do with my life"), I truly know my mission, and now I know how to teach others to do the same! After all this though, there was still something that made me uneasy until I heard from one of Vishan's videos that's part of this course that "the most interesting people don't have a career they have a mission." I didn't realize I felt guilty & still held on to the idea of who I am is what I do for my career. Guilt that I've spent years becoming a subject matter expert in a job and I'm simply walking away because it doesn't bring me joy. This one sentence freed me from the culturescape, the old ideas that were passed down to me. I literally broke out in tears of happiness. I can't remember the last time I cried because I was happy. Thank you so much. What you built makes a difference.
