Who is The Purpose Pursuit for?

If you are trying to understand yourself better, and what you have to offer the world
If you’ve lost your confidence and want to get your spark back
If you know that you’ve got more to offer, but you’re just not sure what that is
If you’re wondering if it’s too late, but in your heart you don’t want to settle
If you’re in a career, but wonder what your contribution really looks like
 
If you love your job, but know you have more to give
If you’re asking the question, ‘is this it?’ and believe the answer must be no

this course is for you.

Perhaps you are working, and enjoying your role, but would love to understand more about what you can offer in this next season. Maybe you feel like you are ready for a new challenge or leadership role and want to be equipped for it. Perhaps you want to grow your confidence in your current role so that you can really thrive every day. 

Perhaps you’re a parent, who’s had time away from the workplace, or has chosen work to pay the bills or fit around your family. But now it’s time for you. You’re ready to find your lane and enter a new season.

Or you know you’re on a trajectory for growth, you knows there’s more and you want to discover it. You want to know more about how you tick and how you lead so you can carve out a career and lifestyle that boosts your confidence and enjoyment.

this course is for you.

The Purpose Pursuit will give you clarity, courage and unparalleled support as you step into the next season of your life

By the end of The Purpose Pursuit you will have: 

  • realised your unique Strengths (using the world-renowned CliftonStrengths® assessment) and focused on your moments of brilliance as clues to your purpose
  • learnt how to confidently talk about who you are, and what you bring to every environment – home, work, relationships
  • identified your transferable skills, experiences and behaviours - from every season of your life – so that you can be confident in their application in new situations
  • uncovered some of your blindspots and how to navigate them
  • discovered how to avoid unhealthy, self-sabotaging habits such as comparison and competition by focusing on your own lane and personal contribution
  • figured out what is holding you back and removed those barriers to change
  • written with confidence about who you are and what you bring, so that you can face any CV or interview with poise and assurance
  • prepared yourself to be ready to talk about who you are with conviction in any context
  • completed your own Purpose Profile, which you will add to throughout the course, to steer you into the next season with courage
  • crafted a plan so that you can step out with determination into your next phase of life – whether that’s a new role, a new career, more fulfilment in a role you enjoy

Exploring my Strengths with Hannah was really empowering. It’s given me the confidence to recognise, harness and utilise what I have to the max. As a new mum this has been pure gold and helped me explore the next steps in my career.

Knowing my Strengths has changed everything. I've gone from a daily battle with Imposter Syndrome to thinking, hang on, maybe I can do this, my way!

Hannah really helped me gain perspective on what my Strengths were. I left feeling empowered by the realisation that I am someone who needs a sense of purpose in order to bring my best to the workplace. It also gave me a fresh excitement for how i can use my strengths to start something new!

We do it this way to help protect your time, keep you on track and avoid the feelings of overwhelm that could easily stop you from making the progress you are capable of.

"'I can not rate this course high enough. Whilst you need to dedicate the time and space to do it properly, it is worth every minute. The strengths finder is totally enlightening; it becomes one of the most important documents you will own. Hannah makes you ask yourself questions that you have put aside and avoided for years. She gently guides you to bring them to the surface and give them a little bit more thought. You will find answers that you didn't know existed and start conversations with loved ones that you didn't know you needed. I have found a new place of calm while at the same time feeling much more excited about the future. "

Frequently Asked Questions

This is such a great question as Hannah also wondered this when she signed up for her first digital course.

The course is hosted on a platform called Kajabi and this is where all the modules sit, along with their lessons and supporting materials.

The lessons are delivered as downloadable video and audio recordings, along with slides. The course materials and activities are all available alongside the corresponding lessons as PDFs to download or print.

On signing up to The Purpose Pursuit, you will be sent a welcome email, which will include a link so that you can log into Kajabi, meaning that you can access the course materials at your convenience. Online courses are a great way to learn and to expand your knowledge, from the comfort of your own home! You also get lifetime access to the materials – so you go back over all of the learning whenever you want to.

Quick answer: no. We don’t do this because the last thing we want you to do is be overwhelmed by ten weeks’ worth of content! Each week, fresh content will appear in your Kajabi platform course area. You’ll also get an email with an overview of the week ahead.

I am so with you on this one. I find it really quite tricky to spend money on myself, but I find it all to easy to spend it on my loved ones, especially my kids? Ask yourself this – what price is your long-term fulfilment worth? Is this really just spending on yourself, or does it benefit those around you, too, to see you fulfilled, confident and pursuing your goals? Those of you with children – what do you spend each week on swimming lessons, piano lessons, football club and so on? Just like that kind of spending, this is more of an investment.

I fully understand why prioritising ourselves can be hard to do, but stop and ask yourself what you would say to a friend if this was their reason for hesitation. Without wanting to be totally cheesy – you really are worth it.

Again, quick answer: no. Kajabi is user-friendly and you can choose to print out whatever you might want to work through in a more manual process.

There will be several ways you can make contact. Firstly, do use the email [email protected] if you can’t resolve any tech issues or want to ask a question. The weekly live sessions will have time to address questions so you can always submit those in advance. The online community will also be there to support your questions and thinking too. If you choose the Signature package, you’ll have the opportunity to talk with Hannah in your 1:1 and within your small group collective.

This is a great question, to which the answer is a confident yes.

Hannah knew she did not want to create an off the shelf 'one-size-fits-all' digital course because she knows how important the individualised approach is to her work.

Having worked with in people development for 20 years, and as a certified coach using the highly individualised CliftonStrengths®; approach, Hannah knows that each person is different. That's why you'll work through work through all sorts of activities and reflective processes to ground the learning in what you are discovering about yourself. I'm putting all the coaching, all the teaching, all the learning, all the encouragement into one place so I can support and motivate as many people as possible.

Hannah is a trained teacher, and teacher of teachers. Not only does Hannah know her subject, and love people, she knows how to communicate, and how to plan lessons with good content and clear actions.. The development of course materials and speaking in public is not new to Hannah. She’s also a regular Vistage speaker (in which she received the Rising Star Award), and part of the Women’s Speaker Collective. You can find out more about Hannah here.

Your life is a boat.
You need a rudder.
But it doesn’t matter how much wind is in your sails if you’re not steering towards a harbour — an ultimate purpose in your life

Vic Stretcher

I personally cannot wait to guide you over these next ten weeks. Creating The Purpose Pursuit has been an opportunity for me to put my heart and soul into a project I really believe in – enabling others to realise their Strengths, regain confidence and rediscover who they are.

I know it works.
I know it’s what you need.

I’ve experienced first-hand what it feels like to transition from a time in my life where I felt lost, unfulfilled, like I’d reached a plateau and was no longer in an environment that was stretching me or fulfilling me. I felt like my Strengths weren’t getting a look in, and definitely weren’t appreciated. For years, I had (rightly) prioritised what was right for my children (and actually had a job I had loved in that time), but it was a new season and I knew I had to find the confidence to make that change. If it hadn’t been for the kind of guidance you’ll find in The Purpose Pursuit, and emphasis on leaning into my Strengths, I would not be sitting here today, living a life with increased confidence, meaning and purpose.

Should you choose to accept my invitation, I personally guarantee that these next 10 weeks will be fundamentally life changing – for you, and your loved ones.

I look forward to meeting your personally on The Purpose Pursuit. 

With love,

Hannah x

On top of pursuing your own purpose, by us working together, we are giving others who are less fortunate than ourselves an opportunity to discover purpose. 10% of all sales are invested in projects in both the UK and overseas that are working hard to make the world a little fairer. Furthermore, as part of our foundation we offer fully funded places on The Purpose Pursuit to those who would otherwise not be able to access the course.

Feels good, doesn’t it, knowing our working together brings about some good in the world?
