Hi there, Jen here, and this is a happy bit. So I've been reading the book True Purpose by Tim Kelly.

0:06.9

In this book, you get to answer some questions and do some thinking to try to figure out your

0:12.1

calling or meaning in life. Some of the questions include things like, what are you uniquely

0:18.0

designed and prepared to do? List the things to which you're consistently drawn.

0:22.1

What about them draws you?

0:23.4

Or if you had a year to live, what would you spend your time doing?

0:27.3

So you answer these questions by writing them down, and then you go back and reread the answers

0:33.0

and figure out the commonalities and the patterns in your answers.

0:37.9

Now, I'm not all the way through the book, but I've done this portion of the exercises.

0:42.8

And for me, the words that came up were love and listen.

0:48.0

I am called to love and listen.

0:49.9

Well, this is perfect because I am a mom of six kids, and I consider that my highest calling.

And so I get to love and listen to them. And having that statement or having found that out

1:01.7

just kind of gave me a little more drive to do that a little better this week.

1:05.8

Additionally, as a life coach and a podcaster, I get to do a lot of listening. And so I felt like, huh, I'm on the right path.

1:13.3

And I'm going to go forward with more drive and determination in this area because I've,

1:17.6

I saw these patterns that have existed in my life since I was a little girl. So get the book and

1:23.1

figure out what your calling is. It might be to create beautiful art. It might be to do math. The sky is the

1:30.1

limit. In fact, as Sarah Gilbert told us in the last episode, the sky is not the limit. Anything is

1:36.4

possible. So again, the book is True Purpose by Tim Kelly. And I highly recommend it. Make it a great week.

1:44.7

Take care.
