What Am I Made For?

Cultivate and Grow Big and Little Ideas

About My Book

What Are We Made For? Let me start by telling you what we are not made for. Consuming more than we create. We are creative, spiritual beings who make meaning and help evolve our world through our body, mind, and efforts.

Being a bystander in our lives is not what we are made for. We need to think, act, lead, and mentor with greater clarity and effectiveness. To do this, we need to know who we are.

What We Are Made For

We are born cradling ideas–quiet seeds of possibility that lie in wait for courage, attention, and the rhythm of our lives to coax them awake. Our stories, our losses, our inheritance, and those small, ordinary moments of wonder shape what we create. We evolve each time we say yes to an idea that scares us, stirs us, or calls us by name.

Growth is rarely convenient. It arrives disguised as grief, curiosity, and questions we never intended to ask. It beckons us to tune into our emotions, heed our intuition, nurture our relationships, and embrace the wisdom that flows through our lineage.

This book is a companion for those who are becoming. It’s a reminder that ideas are not separate from us; they are expressions of who we are becoming. To generate, incubate, experiment, and birth an idea is to take responsibility for our own unfolding.

You are here to create—not flawlessly, but earnestly. To guide yourself with tenderness and truth. To sculpt a life that honors your worth and celebrates your unique talent.

And somewhere inside that unfolding, you will glimpse the answer to the question: What am I made for?
