“Some people are so poor, all they have is money.”
- Bob Marley
As I think about the work I am and will be doing with LifeDesign+, I believe the majority of the people I will work with will understand that while we cannot escape the need for money and that having money is not bad, it also will not lead to a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Purpose and fulfillment are found by finding, living, and evolving with your authentic life. Through personal experience and observation, I know you can have purpose, fulfillment, and money—they are not mutually exclusive. I also know you don’t have to find purpose and fulfillment first for the money to follow—although this is one way. It is also possible to accumulate money to seek purpose and fulfillment, aligning the three. There is no “right path”. The beauty of LifeDesign+ is that the relationship will allow me to meet people where they are. They can be seeking purpose and fulfillment by moving closer to their authentic lives to align and grow their finances, or they can be the version of “poor” described by Bob Marley, having the money and looking for their authentic life. I’ll be writing more and updating my website to bring more attention to LifeDesign+ (and a couple of variations—one specifically for my financial advisor peers and another to act as an outsourced life planner for financial advisor firms) now that I have confirmed that path that I am on is the right one for the present. If you find your Self seeking to find purpose and fulfillment by moving closer to your authentic life in hopes that it aligns and improves your finances, which it will, or you already have financial success but lack purpose and fulfillment, I’m only a reply to this email or DM away to chat about LifeDesign+. I’ll be here when you’re ready. See you tomorrow and keep pursuing, JC |
I'm on a mission to help more people find and live their authentic life. Check out my Daily Notes where I write a short note each day about the connection of spirit, mind, body and money on the Pursuit of your authentic life.
There's never been a better time to be a dreamer. Yesterday, I spent the day in a one-day mastermind with other financial advisors to build something from scratch using AI, specifically Claude. I brought the idea of a dashboard, eventually an app, that helps people monitor the alignment of their spirit, mind, body, and money. This dashboard only existed in my mind and some notes I had written down with features I wanted to see: Syncing with financial, health, and mindful apps. An analog...
They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results. Many of us wake up each day and do the same things we did the day before, leaving us frustrated, unhappy, and discontent. The good news is you don’t have to do the same thing over and over, expecting to feel different. If you want to see your life change—if you want to discover your Authentic Life, you can’t keep doing the same things over and over. To change your experience, you have to align what is not...
I hope you had a great week! This week was busy and highly creative; I'm excited to share one of the ideas that came out of it when the time is right. Ang and I will be working on building something, which is exciting for me because it means I'll finally have the opportunity to work with her. As a subscriber to The Weekly Note, you will be the first to know. This week, you'll notice a slight change at the bottom of this email. In addition to sharing a video that I see the Authentic Life in,...
