Meaning in Motion Mini-Guide
Grounding in Purpose After Change, Transition or Loss
What is Purpose?
Purpose is…
A living anchor that evolves as you do.
The thread connecting your values, experiences, and aspirations.
A guide for where you put your energy and how you serve others.
Purpose is not…
A single job title or role.
A fixed destination you must “find” once and for all.
Something external that others define for you.
💡Think of purpose as motion—it adapts, expands, and re-roots itself with each season of life
Identity Check-In: Who Am I Now?
Transitions often shake how we see ourselves. These prompts invite you to pause, notice, and reframe.
What roles or titles have I released recently?
What strengths or qualities remain steady in me, regardless of role?
How am I converting past experiences into wisdom for today?
“I used to think I was ____________________. Now I see I am ____________________.”
✍️Journal Tip: Write freely for 10 minutes without editing yourself. Let your identity story rewrite itself on the page
Cultural Legacy Reflection
We carry wisdom not just from personal experience, but from the cultural stories, ancestors, and communities that shaped us.
What values or traditions from my culture do I want to honor and continue?
Where do I feel the tension between my cultural roots and my current life?
Which voices from my heritage or community inspire me to keep going?
✨ Inspiration: Dolores Huerta reminds us, “Every moment is an organizing opportunity, every person a potential activist, every minute a chance to change the world.”
Aspiration Map: Learn - Teach - Leave Behind
Purpose flows into the future through how we grow, share, and contribute. Use the map below as a guide:
What I want to learn:
👉 New skills, insights, or practices that stretch me
What I want to teach/share:
👉 Lessons, stories, or wisdom from my lived experience
What I want to leave behind:
👉 A legacy, practice, or ripple that matters beyond me
✅ This mini guide is best used with reflection time and a journal. Revisit it each season of your life—you’ll find new answers waiting for you.
