Summary:

It's Monday morning, 9am. How do you feel?Imagine waking up to start another week. In a perfect world, how would you like to feel? Maybe you imagine feeling motivated and energized. Maybe you imagine starting your week with a sense of purpose, peace and intention.The goal of this book is simple: to help you live with a sense of purpose. Part-manual, part-manifesto, this book is not a quick fix for happiness; it's not a five-day plan promising a fast result. Instead, it's a companion, your personal guide to navigating your own sense of purpose as it evolves throughout your life.Eloise Skinner is an author, therapist and teacher. She's also the founder of The Purpose Workshop, an agency helping clients to navigate their purpose and redesign their lives.Eloise studied at Cambridge, trained at Oxford and practised as a corporate lawyer, but after some soul-searching (including a year training to be a monk!) she followed her passion into psychotherapy.Above all, Eloise is driven by the idea of integration - the power of bringing together all aspects of work and life; to live fully, with intention, integrity and purpose.
