Rediscovering Your Purpose - How Coaching Can Help You!

In the journey to realign your life with your true values, professional guidance can be immensely beneficial. One notable coaching program in this field is my 8-week "Back to You" online results coaching program. This program is specifically designed to help you rediscover you true self,  identify your core values, reignite your dreams, and find your purpose. Let's delve into how "Back to You" can be a pivotal step in your journey towards mental well-being and value-aligned living.

HI, I'm Marion Turner, a certified results coach with over 40 years of experience in helping individuals transform their lives through coaching, physiotherapy and meditation teaching, created the 8 week "Back to You" program. This coaching program is built on the belief that true happiness and fulfilment come from living a life that is congruent with your core values and purpose. Here’s how "Back to You" can guide you through this transformative process:

Rediscovering Your True Self

One of the foundational aspects of the "Back to You" program is helping you reconnect with your true self. Over time, societal expectations, professional demands, and personal responsibilities can obscure your true identity. I use a variety of techniques, including introspective exercises and reflective discussions, to help you peel back these layers and rediscover who you truly are. These exercises encourage deep self-reflection, helping you to uncover your authentic self and recognise the aspects of your identity that you may have suppressed or ignored.

Identifying Core Values

A critical component of the "Back to You" program is identifying your core values. I believe that understanding your values is the key to unlocking a life of purpose and satisfaction. Through guided sessions, you will explore and clarify your values. These value clarification exercises involve listing potential values and ranking them based on their importance to you. This process helps you prioritise what truly matters to you. This is unique to you, the answers lie within you, I help you to find them through exercises and discussions that delve into present and past experiences and future aspirations, shedding light on the values that consistently drive your decisions and actions.

Reigniting Dreams

Many people have dreams and aspirations that they have set aside due to various life circumstances such as the obligations that arise through parenting, caring for others, dealing with financial pressures, loss of relationships and grief to name just a few. The "Back to You" program aims to reignite these dreams, helping you reconnect with your passions and aspirations.

I use goal-setting techniques and visualisation exercises to help you create a clear and actionable plan to pursue your dreams while identifying potential obstacles to reaching your goals.

Finding Purpose

Living with purpose is crucial for mental well-being and fulfilment. The "Back to You" program guides you in discovering and articulating your life’s purpose.

The purpose discovery exercises help you explore what gives your life meaning and how you can align your daily activities with this sense of purpose.

Of course, to achieve goals, we need to take action, action planning is an integral part of the Back to You program; once you have identified your purpose, I help you create a strategic plan to align your life with this purpose, ensuring that your actions and decisions reflect your core values.

How "Back to You" Addresses Stress and Depression

By realigning your life with your values, dreams, and purpose, "Back to You" addresses the root causes of stress and depression. Here’s how:

1. Reducing Internal Conflict

By helping you live in accordance with your values, the program reduces the internal conflict that often leads to stress and anxiety. When your actions align with your beliefs, you experience a greater sense of harmony and peace. 

2. Restoring Meaning and Purpose

Reconnecting with your dreams and identifying your purpose infuse your life with meaning. This sense of purpose combats the feelings of emptiness and purposelessness that are common in depression.

3. Enhancing Self-Esteem and Self-Worth

Living true to your values and pursuing your dreams enhances your self-esteem and self-worth. You begin to see yourself as capable and authentic, which significantly improves your mental health.

4. Building Resilience

The program equips you with the tools and strategies to navigate life’s challenges while staying true to yourself. This resilience is crucial in managing stress and preventing depression.

Practical Steps to Start Your Journey

While "Back to You" provides a comprehensive coaching experience, here are some initial steps you can take to start realigning your life with your values, dreams, and purpose:

1. Self-Reflection

Spend time reflecting on your current life and identify areas where you feel misaligned with your values. Journaling can be a powerful tool for this process.

2. Set Small, Aligned Goals

Start with small, achievable goals that reflect your values. This can be as simple as dedicating time each week to a hobby or interest that you are passionate about.

3. Seek Support

Consider joining a community or group that shares your values and interests. Surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals can provide support and encouragement.

4. Explore Coaching

If you feel stuck or need guidance, consider engaging in a coaching program like "Back to You." Professional coaching can provide the structure and support needed to make meaningful changes.
