How often do you wonder if you’re truly living the life you want or should be? For years, I’ve been passionate about helping people—job seekers, college students, aspiring entrepreneurs, midlife career changers, and even recent retirees—pursue an earned life they feel proud of at any stage. Today, I’m excited to introduce a new resource: the Culture of One Journal. This workbook is meant to assist you in mapping out a life that feels authentic, intentional, and uniquely yours.
Many of us feel a disconnect between the life we’re living and the life we truly want – this is the life experience that Outside Insights was built around. So many of us are caught in the cycle of work, family, bills, and endless responsibilities that it’s challenging to carve out the space for self-reflection. The Culture of One journal is here to bridge that gap, guiding you to pause, reflect, and design a life that aligns with who you truly are and what you genuinely want.
Why We Struggle to Bridge Our Gaps
Think about it: How much of what you do is influenced by old expectations, things we picked up from family and society, or just trying to keep up? So many of us are on autopilot, chasing job titles or financial goals, only to realize they don’t bring the lasting satisfaction we hoped for.
Sure, ambition is great, but if it’s not connected to something meaningful, it can feel hollow. The truth is, we’re often living by someone else’s rules without even realizing it. But here’s the best part: you can change that. It’s never too late to pause, reflect, and start building a life that feels truly yours. The good news? It’s never too late to break out of autopilot and reclaim the life you want. The Culture of One Journal provides a framework to begin that journey.
A Journey of Self-Discovery
This workbook doesn’t just help you think about the areas of life that matter most—your family, friends, career, finances, and personal interests. It also challenges you to act on them. I like to think of it as a tree whose branches and roots represent different facets of life that need nourishment. Much like exercise or a healthy diet, the life you want will only grow if you’re willing to commit to the work.
Can you set aside just half an hour each week to invest in this journey? Start by focusing on a single area, and you’ll find that progress there often inspires positive changes in other parts of your life. The path to creating the life you want to lead begins with a single step.
Taking the Next Step
Download the Culture of One Journal if you’re ready to dive in and start shaping a life that genuinely reflects who you are. This isn’t just another workbook—it’s a guide, a sounding board, and a space to map out what matters.
I’d love to hear your thoughts, answer your questions, and see the steps you’re taking. Reach out, connect, and let’s make this journey one to remember.
Until next time, friends.
