If you are looking to live a larger, more meaningful life, then you probably already know that you need to invest time and focus to discover what that looks like.
What Fellow Students Have to Say:
“I took this class as part of my job as a psychologist at a university. As someone grounded in positive psychology, I love that this course pulls content from the best and brightest minds in the field. Dr. Tal Ben-Shahar happens to be my favorite positive psychologist, so it was wonderful to have his teachings woven throughout the course. Originally I wasn’t looking for personal transformation, so I was surprised and pleased when the learning impacted me in a powerful way. The biggest benefits for me were threefold. The course helped me remember my passion from times in the past when I have thrived. It helped me reconnect with my sense of purpose and reclaim my vision for what I want for my future. This kind of change takes work, but if you stick with it, this course has the power to transform you. ”
Marcela Gonzalez Branstrom“It IS possible to figure out why you are here and what you are meant to do. In Pursuit of Purpose helps connect the dots by sharing powerful exercises and concepts. Figuring out who you are takes being honest with yourself and sometimes putting yourself first!"”
Kaiya Levine“The course is tremendously generous in sharing knowledge and practical tools that allow us to explore and reflect on the purpose and meaning of our lives. Our own Path, our own Truth. In Pursuit of Purpose taught me how to live a more present and authentic life. It also reconnected me to the importance of recognizing and continuously building my purpose.”
Fernando Caballero“In Pursuit of Purpose helped me realize that my purpose in life is not defined by what others expect or want. I should do what I enjoy, what I'm good at, and what meets a need in this world. That will change throughout my life. What filled me up 10 years ago may not fill me up today and may not look the same 10 years from now. I should be constantly growing, learning and evolving. I loved the guidance at the end of the class, focused on helping me make my purpose happen. To be successful in anything in this life I need to set goals and work towards them in attainable increments.”
