Hello, the lovely peoples. This is Marty, Martha, inviting you to a free masterclass that I have made called

Five Paths to Your Purpose. Probably the most common question I get from people is, how do I find my purpose?

Why don't I feel that I'm on purpose? Well, it turns out there are certain things you have to do to find your purpose, and I broke

them down into five, and I made a little masterclass about it. So if you'd like to see it, just go to

marthabec.com slash purpose, and you will be able to watch it without any charge at all.

Welcome to the Gathering Room podcast, the audio version of my weekly gathering room broadcast.

I'm Martha Beck.

This is a very exciting topic for me.

I want to talk to you a little bit about adventure today.

Mexico, Casablanca.

Just reading your place names is a kind of adventure for me.

I know I talk about this all the time, but you know how there are times in your life when it's obvious that you're doing something different. We're always doing different things. Every day, we unfold a little

bit, we understand a little bit more. No two days are the same, but there are certain times in your

life that change dramatically. And in my life, some of those have been imposed on me.

In the Wayfinder life coach training, we talk about how there are three reasons for you to change.

One is shock. That is something bad happens. And you have to change your life to accommodate it.

Number two is opportunity where you get a chance to do something

wonderful and you jump at it. Or something wonderful happens like you fall in love, you have a baby,

get a dog, whatever. And the third one is just growth. You just are developing new thoughts,

new ideas, new life preferences, and you don't fit back in your baby clothes anymore.

So those are the three reasons. Well, I think I'm going to add a fourth.

You coaches out there, get your notebooks out. This is the fourth reason.
