In today’s fast-paced world, many of us find ourselves searching for a deeper sense of purpose. It’s a journey that requires introspection and a willingness to explore the intersection of our beliefs and actions. Finding purpose is not just about setting goals; it’s about aligning those goals with our core values and beliefs.
The Intersection of Beliefs and Actions: Purpose is found at the crossroads of what we believe and how we act. It’s about understanding the values that drive us and ensuring that our actions reflect those values. This alignment creates a sense of harmony and fulfillment, allowing us to live authentically and intentionally. As Erika Perez might say, “Purpose creates a life worth living.”
“When we don’t know our why, then our what doesn’t have meaning. It’s about bringing and understanding what is our why, how does that bring or what meaning and how is that reflection.” – Erika Perez
The Role of Spirituality: For many, spirituality plays a crucial role in discovering purpose. It provides a framework for understanding our place in the world and guides us in making decisions that align with our values. Embracing spirituality can lead to quicker progress and transformation, as it offers a deeper connection to our inner selves. Dr. Ca Trice Glenn notes, “If a person has a spiritual framework that is important and vital to their life, leveraging that can lead to quicker progress and transformation.”
Embracing Change and Growth: Our sense of purpose evolves as we grow and experience life’s transitions. It’s important to remain open to change and to recognize that our purpose may shift over time. This dynamic nature of purpose allows us to adapt and thrive in different stages of life. Dr. Glenn highlights, “Our identity evolves over time and involves transitions,” emphasizing the dynamic nature of personal growth.
Finding purpose is a journey that requires reflection, exploration, and a commitment to living in alignment with our values. By embracing the intersection of our beliefs and actions, we can create a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling. Let this journey be a testament to the power of purpose in transforming our lives.

“Purpose helps create harmony and that inner peace where you’re considering all aspects of life that you consider important. But I definitely believe that purpose starts with your values.” – Erika Perez
“I often think of purpose as something that might be felt internally, but operationalized externally. It is how what’s happening in who I am going to affect those around me and the spaces that I’m in.” – Dr. Ca Trice Glenn
