Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• I drift through my days reacting to whatever’s loudest and I’ve lost the thread of what actually matters to me
• I can drift for months making choices that quietly pull away from what I actually care about, and nobody in my life ever asks me whether I’m still pointed where I said I wanted to go.
• I’m busy chasing things but half of them feel like what I’m supposed to want, not what I actually do
• My days are just whatever circumstances throw at me
• Going through that, I saw so clearly what actually matters to me
