In Pursuit of Purpose
Exploring Purpose-Driven Leadership & Personal Growth
About
After 30 years of leading, learning, and occasionally tripping over my own ambitions, I’ve found myself in a new chapter — one where the suits are a little less stiff, the coffee is a little stronger, and the drive to create meaningful impact hasn’t dulled a bit. It’s My Pursuit of Purpose.
I spent decades helping organizations grow, wrestle with purpose, and navigate transitions. Now, I’m embracing a different kind of challenge: putting thoughts into words and sharing them with whoever wants to listen (or at least skim politely).
My passion and focus now is purpose — uncovering the underlying reason we uniquely exist and exploring how we express this in our everyday lives. How can we make more room for purpose? What does the science say? And how can we authentically leverage purpose in our lives and businesses to drive better results and make a lasting impact?
My Pursuit of Purpose
"The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why."
— Mark Twain
I believe purpose is the foundation that connects who we are, what we value, and the unique gifts we offer the world. It brings clarity to why we exist, guides our actions, and reveals what truly inspires us. Exploring purpose helps us understand the world around us, discover what moves us, and find the path to lasting happiness and meaningful impact.
This space is dedicated to that exploration: the pursuit and understanding of purpose. Writing is my way of diving deep into these questions, sharing insights, and sparking conversations about what truly matters.
Expect reflections on my pursuit of purpose, stories of growth, and ideas to help you align your life and work with intention. Together, let’s explore how purpose can guide us, connect us, and drive meaningful change.
If you’re drawn to purpose, curious about growth, or seeking inspiration to live more intentionally — welcome. Let’s journey together.
Why I Write
I write to explore ideas, make sense of life, and figure out where purpose, joy, and meaning intersect. It’s a way to seek advice, express feelings, and occasionally be vulnerable about the absurdities we all stumble over.
Expect reflections on purpose, the pursuit of joy, and the ever-elusive balance between ambition and flourishing. This is a space for insights, questions, and maybe a few half-baked theories.
If you’re curious, driven, or simply looking for a fresh perspective — welcome. Let’s see where this takes us.
