Right Livelihood Quest

Right Livelihood Quest

Here, in our context, Right Livelihood means expressing your Life Purpose through your work and your life. It means knowing who you are and why you are here – in the biggest possible scope – and aligning your life to your vocation, purpose, and values.

It is about knowing what you cannot not do. And doing it, oftentimes despite all odds. There will be challenges along the way, together with moments and times of tremendous joy, fulfillment, and meaning. Such is the nature of a life lived when we become aware of our experiences along the path, learn to integrate the darkest and the brightest moments of our past and present, and focus our unique gifts towards the world outside of our personal scope. The paradox of one’s Right Livelihood is that, while it is very individual, it is absolutely not personal at the same time.

      (and Why I Sometimes Can’t Shut Up About It) Let me just say it plainly: I am in a long-term, wildly fulfilling, occasionally exasperating, and at times, frustrating relationship with the Enneagram. Now, after years of deep and focused learning, and becoming a Certified Enneagram Teacher, we are going stronger than ever. However, it hasn’t […]

    • The Messy Art of Navigating Transitions: Learning to Trust the In-Between

      I have often wished that transitions came with a map. A well-marked trail, a clear set of instructions, perhaps a kindly guide with a lantern who knows the way and will guide me with ease and confidence from here to there. Instead, they arrive like unexpected houseguests—disruptive, inconvenient, and completely uninterested in whether I feel […]

    • The Alchemy of Hope and Hopelessness: Why Keep Showing Up for the Hard Work

      In a world where the “right” thing often feels heavy and daunting, or even impossible at times, there’s a quiet, fierce question that many of us carry: “Why do we keep at it?” I’m talking about the hard work—the stuff that requires the commitment to keep showing up, even when it seems that hope is […]
