My own journey to thriving on purpose

Today, I want to talk to you about a decision and experience that deeply resonates with the essence of this podcast’s name, ‘Thriving on Purpose’. 

When I decided to move to Ghana, for many, it seemed sudden. But to me, it was a choice deeply rooted in the desire to rediscover myself and align with my life’s purpose.”

“Moving to Ghana wasn’t just a change of scenery. It was a homecoming to myself. This beautiful country allowed me to learn lessons I didn’t even know I needed. I learned about friendship, self-love, embracing new experiences, and the art of letting go.”

This move taught me the value of intentionality. Every step, every decision, every ‘yes’ and every ‘no’ started to matter. I learned that to truly thrive, one must move with purpose, even when the path isn’t entirely clear.

This journey to Ghana was more than a geographical relocation. It was my own ‘Thriving on Purpose’ moment, setting the stage for many more intentional choices in both my life and business.”

But why should you care? Imagine shaping a life and a business where every step, every choice, feels right. Where you aren’t just drifting, but purposefully navigating. Where you aren’t just surviving, but truly thriving.” 

Curious?

Here are some foundational steps to start your intentional journey:

Step 1. Self-Awareness:

Discovery of Passion:

Dive deep and recognize what truly ignites a fire within you. Is it solving problems, leading a team, or perhaps creating something new? 

Understanding Drivers:

Beyond the obvious motivations like money or success, what genuinely drives you? Is it making an impact, achieving a work-life balance, or building something that lasts?

Embrace Your Real Self:

Once you’ve identified your passions and motivations, own them. They are a part of your unique identity. Celebrate them and let them guide your actions and decisions.

Step 2. Define Your ‘Why’:

Beyond Generic Goals:

While everyone wants happiness or success, what do these terms truly mean for you? Your definition of happiness might be entirely different from another person’s.

Personalized Happiness:

Is your happiness tied to business milestones, creating cherished moments with loved ones, or perhaps it’s the freedom and flexibility to choose your daily activities?

Guiding North Star:

Your ‘why’ will serve as your guiding star, helping you navigate challenges and make decisions that align with your core values and desires.

Step 3. Keep Learning:

Endless Curiosity:

Adopt a mindset where you’re always eager to learn and grow. The world is evolving, and so should your knowledge.

Diverse Sources:

Don’t limit yourself. Books can offer wisdom, seminars can provide new strategies, and mentors can offer personalized guidance based on their experiences.

Actionable Insights:

It’s not just about consuming information but applying it. Implement what you learn and see how it transforms your life and business.

Step 4. Keep adapting & evolving 

Expect the Unexpected:

Life is unpredictable. While we might chart out a clear plan, roadblocks and detours are inevitable.

Flexibility in Approach:

Instead of resisting change, learn to pivot. Being rigid can lead to missed opportunities or unnecessary stress.

Growth from Challenges:

Every change, every challenge, is a chance to learn and evolve. Embrace them, and you’ll find yourself better equipped for future hurdles.

“Remember, thriving intentionally doesn’t mean having all the answers right now. It means being committed to this journey of self-discovery, growth, and evolution, no matter where it takes you.”

“Thriving on purpose isn’t about perfection. It’s about alignment – with your values, goals, and aspirations. And here, in this space, we’ll explore, learn, and grow together.”
