“The present moment is all there is.” — Thom Gage

Now that we are embarking on this new journey, stepping forward with a fresh, blank page, it’s time to explore what’s the purpose — the meaning — behind all of this. BM is joined by her human design reader, Thom Gage (she/her), to locate how to find your sense of purpose when you’re starting all over. So much of this conversation is rooted in the need to ditch perfectionism to instead learn what it means to hold purpose in the moment, with the goal of finding what lights you up by sitting in the darkness of the unknown. And, of course, there’s so much human design goodness woven in between.

covering:

what it means to have purpose

the stress that can come from trying to find a deeper meaning to life

giving yourself the permission to take up space

the present moment is all there is

finding where your purpose lives in your body

being with yourself moment by moment is purpose enough

the intention you set vs the lesson you learned

detaching from the outcome + leaning into the experiment
