Are you navigating a life transition? If you’ve recently gone through a major life shift—a promotion, a move, an empty nest, a breakup, or a spiritual awakening—you may be realizing that what once fulfilled you no longer does.
Or perhaps, from the outside, it may look like you have it all—career success, personal accomplishments, a life others admire—yet, deep down, something’s missing. There’s a quiet ache, a yearning for more—more alignment, more meaning, more fulfillment. You may even be asking yourself: Is this it?
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. More importantly, you’re on the edge of something powerful.
Change—whether chosen or unexpected—is a doorway. It opens the space between “what was” and “what’s next.” It may feel uncomfortable. It may be confusing. And, it’s the perfect opportunity to ask deeper questions that realign you with who you are now, what truly matters to you, and where your soul is calling you next.
Because, that ache? It’s your soul whispering…
You’re here for a reason.
Yet, how do you find that reason? How do you reconnect with your purpose?
The truth is: your purpose isn’t something you “find” out in the world. It isn’t something to be figured out. It’s not defined by your job title, relationship status, or the numbers in your bank account. Your purpose is a living, breathing compass—rooted in your core values, passions, and the voice within you. It grows and evolves as you do, guiding you toward what truly matters.
Your purpose is something you remember within. Once you tap into it, you begin to make decisions with clarity. You feel energized rather than drained. You attract opportunities, people, and experiences that are in harmony with your true self.
If there’s a restlessness within—a desire to pivot, expand, or realign with a new version of yourself—it’s okay to pause and reflect. In fact, it’s necessary. So, give yourself permission to embrace the shift and explore what’s next.
These three powerful questions can guide you back to your inner truth—your purpose—and propel you forward into the next chapter of your life.
3 Questions to Find Your Purpose
1. What lights you up?
This is where your purpose begins: with your joy. When you’re doing something that energizes, excites, and enlivens you, time disappears and you feel fully alive. You feel the magic. That’s your soul saying yes.
Think back to moments in your life when you felt most inspired, most fulfilled.
- What were you doing?
- Who were you being?
- What about that experience felt meaningful?
Whether creating, connecting, solving, teaching, or exploring, your purpose lives in your passions and natural gifts. Trust those sparks and follow the magic—it’s leading you home.
2. What breaks your heart?
This may seem like the opposite of joy, but your heartbreak can also reveal your purpose. What injustice, suffering, or challenge moves you so deeply that you can’t look away? Your purpose often lives at the intersection of your passion and your pain—what you’ve struggled through, what you’ve healed from, what you wish others never had to experience.
From your deepest wounds can rise your greatest wisdom. And when you transform your pain into purpose, you make a powerful impact—not just for yourself, but for others too. Because purpose is deeply rooted in service, in the way you show up and impact the lives of others. Think about how people describe your presence and how you make them feel.
Ask yourself, what legacy do I want to leave? What change do I want to create? Here are some examples of what your legacy might look like:
- Uplifting and inspiring others to believe in themselves
- Creating safe spaces where people feel seen and heard
- Leading with compassion to spark positive change in communities
3. What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?
This question cuts through fear, self-doubt, and external expectations. It bypasses your inner critic and awakens your inner guide.
- If you were free to live your life your way… what would you create?
- What would you give yourself permission to try, explore, become?
Oftentimes, the answers to these questions reveal the dream you’ve been holding back—the soul vision waiting patiently in your heart. Let it rise. Let it lead.
Your Purpose Is Already Within You. You don’t need to earn it, prove it, or hustle to find it. You simply need to reconnect with your essence—your truth, your joy, your pain, your magic, your dreams—and listen.
The answers are already inside you. The three questions in this article can guide you home. Reflect on them. Journal with them. Let them spark the remembering. Because you were born with purpose. And the world is waiting for you to live it.
Burnout, Self-Care, Self-Fulfillment, Self-Love, Spirituality
Hello, beautiful soul.
You carry something extraordinary within you—something the world needs. You have a magic that is yours alone to share. It’s a unique blend of your soul gifts, your passions, and your life experiences. It’s your divine gift and it makes you you. Maybe you already sense it—a deep knowing that you are meant for something more, something soul-aligned and powerful.
Or maybe you’ve spent years seeking it, wondering how to fully embrace and express the gifts you’ve been given. If you’re unsure of your soul gifts, see my previous article, where I explore how you can define and understand your unique abilities.
As the Magical Life Mentor, I want you to know this: your magic is not meant to stay hidden. It’s meant to shine, to uplift, to heal, and to transform lives… including your own. When you share your magic, you create a ripple effect that expands far beyond what you can imagine.
That’s why once you’ve revealed your gifts, it’s time to honor them and connect them with your purpose. By stepping into your purpose, you align your gifts with your soul’s higher calling and shift from merely possessing talents to actively co-creating with the universe. And you will naturally feel the urge to extend your gifts outward.
Now, you might be asking yourself the question, How can I share my gifts in a way that makes a difference without losing myself in the process?
Keep in mind that you don’t need to share your magic through grand gestures; your light shines even during everyday moments. Whether you’re offering guidance to a friend, creating art that moves others, or simply radiating kindness, your soul gifts have the power to touch lives. The more aligned you are with your gifts, the more effortlessly you can channel them into meaningful action. And this is where purpose and fulfillment meet.
When you use your gifts authentically and in alignment with your soul’s calling, your magic transforms the lives of others and deepens your own spiritual journey. This journey starts with recognizing your divine talents, fully embracing and integrating them into your life, while finding joy in developing and sharing them.
This is how you step forward and share your magic in a way that feels authentic, fulfilling, and impactful…
How to Use Your Spiritual Gifts to Create an Impact
Release the Fear of Judgment
One of the biggest reasons women hold back their magic is fear—fear of judgment, rejection, or feeling “not enough.” But here’s the truth: your magic is not for everyone. It is for those who are meant to receive it.
Shift Your Perspective:
- Instead of asking, What if people don’t accept me? ask, What if someone desperately needs what I have to offer?
- Instead of fearing failure, embrace growth—every step forward is part of your soul’s expansion.
- Trust that your magic is divinely guided, and those who are meant to receive it will find you.
Your light will attract the souls who need it most.
Share from a Place of Authenticity
True impact doesn’t come from trying to be someone you’re not—it comes from sharing your magic exactly as you are. You don’t have to have everything figured out. You don’t need permission. You simply need to show up as you.
Ways to Share Authentically:
- Tell your story. Your experiences, struggles, and triumphs carry powerful lessons that others can learn from. By embracing and authentically sharing your journey, you empower others to confidently follow their own path.
- Share your knowledge. Your insights, teachings, skills, and wisdom open new perspectives, bringing clarity, encouragement, and guidance to those seeking direction.
- Offer your presence. Be a compassionate listener; just holding space without judgment can be supportive and deeply healing. This helps others navigate their journeys with greater ease and strength, which is a gift in itself.
You don’t have to be perfect to make a difference. You just have to be real.
Take Inspired Action—Even in Small Ways
Your actions speak louder than words. And your magic becomes more powerful the more you use it. Even small, intentional steps create momentum.
Start Here:
- Lead by example. When you live in alignment with your values, you inspire others to do the same. Your daily choices, no matter how small, can lead to transformation in ways you may never fully realize.
- Speak your truth. Authenticity, integrity, and self-awareness create a ripple effect, encouraging those around you to embrace their own truth. Write, teach, and share your wisdom on social media, in conversations, or through art.
- Offer your gift. Coaching, healing, or mentoring can help others release emotional wounds, gain clarity, and restore balance. Music, painting, dance, or writing can uplift and connect with people on a soul level. Art is a reflection of the divine, resonating with those who need its message. Creating from your heart can bring healing and beauty into the world.
- Seek mentorship. Receive the clarity, support, and guidance you need to step fully into your purpose and create a lasting impact. If you feel called to expand your magic, overcome fear, and align your soul gifts with your mission, mentorship may be the key to unlocking your next level of transformation.
- Say YES to opportunities. Follow the nudges and synchronicities that guide you toward expansion. By walking your path with confidence and grace, you demonstrate what it means to be soul-aligned.
You don’t have to have a perfect plan—just take the next step that feels aligned. The path will reveal itself as you walk it.
Protect Your Energy
Your soul gift is powerful; however, there will be moments when your ego pushes you to give more than you have, leaving you drained. As you step into alignment with your purpose, protecting your energy is essential—not just for your well-being, but for sustaining your gift.
Ways to Protect Yourself:
- Set clear boundaries. Having emotional, energetic, and physical boundaries ensures that you don’t deplete yourself while helping others.
- Use grounding techniques. Meditation, breathwork, or time in nature can keep you centered and balanced.
- Practice self-care. Prioritize rest, nourishment, and moments of solitude to replenish your energy, so you can continue sharing your gifts without exhaustion or burnout.
Trust that your impact isn’t measured by how much you give, but by the intention behind it. When you nurture yourself, you ensure your magic flows effortlessly, allowing you to serve with clarity and strength.
Trust the Flow of Your Path
Your spiritual gifts were given to you for a reason, and the universe is always guiding you toward your higher path. The journey of using your soul gifts isn’t about force—it’s about flow.
How to Embrace Flow:
- Let go of control. Trying to control every detail of your journey is exhausting. When you let go of control, you allow magic, miracles, and soul-aligned success to flow effortlessly into your life.
- Align with divine timing and purpose. Your path will unfold naturally if you are patient and trust divine timing, knowing that you are exactly where you’re meant to be. Instead of rushing or comparing your progress to others, accept the lessons that come with each stage of growth.
- Stay open to change. Release fear, even when the next step isn’t fully clear. Fear thrives in uncertainty. Know that every shift is guiding you toward your higher purpose and step forward with certainty, even in the unknown.
As you surrender to the process, you become more aligned and impactful. And you will step fully into your soul’s purpose with ease and impact.
You may never know the full impact of sharing your gifts—but trust me, every time you show up authentically, you touch lives in ways you can’t see. So, keep this in mind:
- That one post you hesitated to share? It might be the message someone needed to hear.
- That class you taught? It might awaken someone’s purpose.
- That smile, that kind word, that moment of encouragement? It could shift the course of someone’s entire day—or life.
Your magic is more powerful than you realize; it creates a ripple effect. It’s meant to grow, evolve, and touch the world. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach; everyone has their own way of expressing their magic.
The world needs what only you can offer. Your soul-aligned power, your wisdom, your love, and your light. You are here to make a difference—not by being someone else, but by being fully, unapologetically YOU.
So, it’s time. Time to step forward, to share your gifts boldly, and to trust that your magic is making an impact—one soul at a time. So, what are you waiting for? Let your magic shine!

Signs That Your Soul Gifts Are Calling You
You Feel A Strong Pull
Your soul gifts are things you naturally gravitate toward, often without even realizing it. Do you feel an undeniable, magnetic pull towards something? Perhaps a creative skill or an inspiring message you’re meant to share that stirs something deep within you and ignites a spark every time you engage with it? Even if doubts arise and you question your abilities, your passion and curiosity remain. This is a sign from your soul. Trust that inner nudge; it’s guiding you toward your true purpose.
People Naturally Seek Your Guidance Or Support
Do others frequently turn to you for advice, insight, or help in a particular area? This is often a sign that your gifts are already at work. Whether you provide emotional support, creative inspiration, or practical solutions, your presence offers something valuable. This ability, talent, or energy flows effortlessly from you, leaving a lasting impact on those around you. Pay attention to how people respond to you; your natural ability to uplift, guide, or create may be a clue to your higher purpose.
You Experience Synchronicities That Reinforce Your Path
Have you ever encountered repeating signs, unexpected opportunities, or meaningful coincidences that seem to confirm your direction? These synchronicities—recurrences, chance meetings, or sudden insights—are the universe’s way of nudging you forward. They serve as reassurance that you are aligned with something greater. When you notice these moments, take them as encouragement to keep developing your soul gifts.
You Feel Energized And Fulfilled When Using Your Gift
Your soul gifts might not be something you’re already great at; however, it is something that lights you up from within. When you’re immersed in it, time fades away, you enter a flow state, and you feel deeply connected with the moment. Rather than draining you, it energizes and uplifts you, leaving a sense of fulfillment, joy, and purpose, powerful signs that you’ve discovered your soul gift to the world.
You Sense An Intuitive Knowing Or Connection With The Universe
Some gifts go beyond the tangible—they manifest as heightened intuition, an ability to sense energy, or a deep inner knowing that defies logic. You might feel an unspoken connection to others, receive sudden insights, or instinctively understand situations before they unfold. This intuitive awareness is a powerful sign of your soul gifts, guiding you to trust your inner wisdom and use it to navigate your path with clarity and confidence.
You’ve Overcome Challenges That Strengthened Your Gifts
Often, our greatest gifts are forged through life’s toughest challenges. If you’ve faced difficulties that have shaped your resilience, wisdom, or compassion, these experiences may have been preparing you to use your gifts in a meaningful way. Hardships can serve as teachers, helping you refine your abilities and deepen your understanding. Embracing the lessons within your struggles allows you to step into your purpose with strength, empathy, and a greater sense of service when sharing your soul gifts with others.
Your soul gift is whispering, even if you haven’t fully recognized it. So listen, trust, and take the next step. Break free from unfulfillment by embracing your soul gifts and tapping into your inner magic.
Your soul gifts are not just about talent—it’s about the unique light only you can bring into the world. When you harness your soul gifts, you activate a powerful force within—one that allows you to create, inspire, and transform lives. The world is waiting for you to step fully into your purpose.
Self-Care, Self-Fulfillment, Self-Love, Spirituality
Are there times you feel stuck in a life that no longer excites you, where each new day feels the same as the day before?
Does your daily life feel like an endless cycle of stress, exhaustion, and lack of purpose?
If you said yes to either of these questions, you could be ready for a change; especially if you’re in a career or role that looks great on the outside, but feels empty on the inside. You can tell yourself to hold on, to push through, but deep down, there’s a whisper urging you toward something more.
Many women feel an inner calling toward something greater—a passion that sparks excitement, creativity, and deep fulfillment. Yet, fear, uncertainty, and societal expectations often hold them back from taking steps toward that passion. The thought of leaving behind what’s familiar feels overwhelming and the sacrifices seem too great.
But, what if saying yes to your passion isn’t about sacrificing everything? What if it’s about letting go of what no longer serves you—the routines, expectations, or beliefs that are keeping you in a rut? If the idea of pursuing your passion keeps resurfacing no matter how much you try to ignore it, that’s not a coincidence—it’s your soul trying to get your attention. Because, the truth is, passion isn’t merely a hobby or an afterthought—it’s the gateway to your most soul-aligned, magical life.
Think of the artist who leaves behind a high-paying but unfulfilling corporate job to paint full-time, or the entrepreneur who risks stability to start a business aligned with their deepest values. On the surface, it looks like they’ve given up a lot—security, comfort, even relationships. But the truth is, they’re not losing; they’re gaining freedom, fulfillment, and a chance to live authentically.
The real sacrifice isn’t in following your passion; it’s in remaining stuck in a life that no longer lights you up. Welcoming your passion is a courageous choice to embrace what truly matters. You’re trading the mundane for the meaningful.
Let’s explore when it’s time to make the move, how to overcome the fear of change, and why pursuing your passion is the most worthwhile “sacrifice” you’ll ever make. Because when you say yes to what fuels your soul, you’re not giving up anything of real value—you’re simply making space for what was meant to be yours all along.
How I Knew It Was Time To Pursue My Passion
25 years ago, I found myself at a crossroads. From the outside, my life seemed ideal: I had built a thriving financial planning business, achieved the kind of success many only dream of, and appeared to have it all. But beneath my polished exterior, I was struggling. The stress of keeping up with personal and societal expectations, along with professional demands, was taking a profound toll on my body and spirit.
Feeling stuck had started as a quiet discomfort—a nagging sense that something was missing. I wondered why I was feeling unfulfilled, despite my success; yet, I continued on my ego-driven path. The discomfort grew louder, until it manifested in physical, emotional, and mental pain and exhaustion. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and post-traumatic stress disorder, exacerbated by unrelenting burnout.
My default response was to work harder and harder, even though my ego-driven approach was taking me down. Every day felt like an uphill battle with even basic tasks draining me. The hardest part was admitting that I couldn’t keep going like this. I had built a life centered around obligations and external measures of success, rather than passion and purpose, and I had ignored the whispers of my soul for too long.
The life I had meticulously crafted was no longer sustainable. Deep down, I knew I couldn’t heal while clinging to the very structures that were breaking me. So, I made the decision to sell my business and focus entirely on my healing.
I grieved the loss of what I thought defined me—my career, my identity, and my sense of purpose. However, I gave myself permission to rest, reflect, and explore what truly mattered. Then I discovered a different operating system and created a framework to embody this new way of being, this soul-aligned approach.
I learned how to tap into my magical force, which uncovered a passion that had long been buried. This brought me back to wellness and a new level of soulful success where magic flows through everything I do. My journey wasn’t just about reclaiming my health; it was about rediscovering my purpose.
Today, as the Magical Life Mentor, a speaker, and master coach and trainer, I draw on my experience to guide others. I’m passionate about showing women—who only look like they have it all—how to truly have it all. I do this by helping them tap into their soul’s magic, their place of possibility, let go of the old, stressful way of being and doing, and find balance and fulfillment.
My story is not just an example of transformation, but a reminder that when you feel stuck, it’s not the end. It’s an invitation to begin again.
Remember What Connects You With Your Passion
When you feel stuck, it’s easy to forget what truly lights you up. Life’s demands, societal expectations, and even self-doubt can bury your passions under layers of “shoulds.” But reconnecting with your passion doesn’t require a dramatic leap at first—it starts with small, intentional actions.
Ask yourself: What makes me lose track of time? What do I do purely for the joy of it? Maybe it’s writing, crafting, cooking, or connecting with others in meaningful ways. Revisit those activities and reflect on how they made you feel before life got in the way. Reignite that spark by integrating your passion into your routine, even in small doses. The goal isn’t to overhaul your life overnight but to rebuild the bridge to what makes you feel alive.
When you choose your passion, you’re not just changing what you do; you’re transforming who you are. You’re stepping into a version of yourself that prioritizes authenticity over conformity and courage over comfort.
If you feel stuck, listen to that inner voice calling you toward something more. Reconnect with what makes you come alive. When you make the move to pursue your passion, you’re not just chasing a dream—you’re creating a life that truly belongs to you. Are you ready to take that step? Your magical, soul-aligned life is waiting.

If you’ve ever felt that something is missing, that life looks good from the outside but lacks that magical spark, reconnecting with your passion can reignite the joy and energy you crave.
Your passion is what excites, drives, and fulfills you. It’s a feeling, desire, or devotion that’s so powerful it fuels your creativity, gives you purpose, and makes your existence more vibrant and meaningful. In life’s journey, the most important thing you can do is connect with your passion.
Yet, many high-achieving women find themselves feeling disconnected from what once excited them. As a Type-A personality, I understand the relentless drive to achieve more and more. However, this creates an unhealthy cycle of chasing external motivators—such as promotions, rewards, or money—without feeling any passion. This can lead to exhaustion, unfulfillment, and even burnout. At the height of my financial career, I experienced all this, plus chronic illness.
So, how can you connect with your passion and avoid sacrificing your own well-being? The short answer: You must know where to look. With the right awareness, life’s moments can reveal what truly matters to you; then you can transform seemingly ordinary experiences into profound connections with your passions. Here are seven powerful ways to realign with your passion and have a life of flow and fulfillment.
How to Connect with Your Passion
What Gives You Pure Joy…
As children, we naturally gravitate toward what excites us without overanalyzing or fearing failure. Think back to your younger self—what activities made you lose track of time? What brought you pure joy? Whether it was storytelling, dancing, painting, or exploring nature, revisiting those childhood passions can unlock dormant enthusiasm and inspiration.
What Gives You Personal Fulfillment…
Start experimenting with activities that intrigue you. Try new experiences without the pressure of mastery or perfection. Take a class, explore a hobby, or volunteer for something meaningful. Even small, inspired actions can reignite the fire within and guide you toward deeper fulfillment, enriching your life and making your journey more meaningful and rewarding.
What Clarifies Your Higher Noble Purpose…
Passion is often linked to purpose. If you’re struggling to connect with what excites you, reflect on what truly matters to your soul. What impact do you want to make? What legacy do you want to leave? When your actions align with a greater mission, passion becomes a natural byproduct of your journey.
What Gives You A Positive Mindset…
What gives you passion also fosters a positive mindset. Engaging with something you love brings joy, fulfillment, and a sense of purpose, which can transform how you view and approach life’s ups and downs. Passion shifts your focus from limitations to possibilities, helping you cultivate gratitude and resilience. When you’re consistently optimistic about something, it may be a sign that it’s something you’re passionate about.
What Gives You Motivation and Drive…
Passion acts as a natural energy source, making it easier to experience motivation and drive. When you’re passionate, you’re fueled by a genuine desire to succeed. You may notice moments when seemingly difficult obstacles are overcome with ease or a new project is initiated without hesitation… AND you even enjoyed the process. This unwavering motivation is a sign you’ve connected with your passion.
What Gives You Creativity and Innovation…
Creativity and innovation are often unlocked when there is a strong sense of passion behind a project or event. You’ll often be in a flow-state when you are feeling this way, which is a strong indication you’re engaged in something you’re passionate about. When your ideas start flowing and tasks are amplified with uninhibited creativity, you’re probably connecting with a true passion.
What Gives You Confidence in Your Abilities…
Have you ever felt confident in your abilities, even when you weren’t entirely sure what you were doing? Or perhaps your confidence grew over time, starting with something new, yet never doubting your ability to reach your goal. You can experience a profound sense of confidence when it’s fueled by a deep connection to passion.
What Gives You Opportunities for Success…
Passion isn’t just something you find—it’s something you cultivate through action. When you align your actions with your true interests, you bring authenticity and dedication to your pursuits. This attracts opportunities and connections that align with your goals. Passion-driven work often stands out, leading to recognition, growth, and a higher likelihood of achieving your dreams. Noticing an abundance of synchronicities that provide opportunities is a sign that your journey is aligned with your passion.
What Gives Inspiration To Others…
Passion is contagious. When you pursue what lights you up, it energizes and motivates those around you. Your enthusiasm can encourage friends, colleagues, and loved ones to find and follow their own passions. This creates a ripple effect of inspiration. When you feel a desire to share, teach, or inspire others, you’re connected with your passion.
Reconnecting with your passion activates the magic within and ignites your soul-aligned power. By bringing a sense of awareness into your journey and recognizing the moments that ignite your passion, you deepen your connection with the source of your passion. Notice what fosters your joy, fulfillment, purpose, positivity, motivation, creativity, confidence, opportunities, and inspiration, and build on it! When you design a life that’s connected with your passions, you can live in alignment with your soul’s deepest desires.
Are you ready to rediscover what sets your soul on fire? Start with one step today and watch how passion begins to flow effortlessly through your life.
