Purpose 🎯

Help clients reconnect daily actions with personal values.

Let’s Talk About It 🗣️

Identify important life areas and explore alignment between values and current behaviors.

Ask:

• What matters most to you?
• Where do you feel disconnected?
• What is one small step toward your values?

If the Conversation Gets Stuck 💡

• What kind of person do you want to be?
• What would matter even on a difficult day?
