"Empowering is the exact word I would use for The Purpose Pursuit"
— Louise, Alumni

Who is The Purpose Pursuit YA for?

If you are trying to understand yourself better, and what you have to offer the world
If you’re feeling stuck, at a crossroads in your life and want to make a change
If you want to develop your confidence and build your resilience
If you know that you’ve got more to offer, but you’re just not sure what that is
If you’re about to graduate, and are wondering what’s next for you
If you’re feeling a little (or a lot) lost and know it’s time to find your way back
If you’re asking the question, ‘is this it?’ and believe the answer must be no

this course is for you.

 

You could be a recent graduate, or student even. You’ve enjoyed your subject, you’ve worked hard at it, but you’re still not sure about what work to pursue. Everyone around you appears to be sorted. They know where they are heading. You don’t want to be left behind but also don’t want to head into a career that won’t fulfil you.

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

  • 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 weaknesses and learnt 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

  • prepared yourself to be ready to talk about who you are with conviction in any context

  • 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, or simply more fulfilment in a role you enjoy

"Thank you for creating a course that has given me the courage to jump and do something that will hopefully allow me to be the best version of Tom Rogers. Without it, I think I would find myself hopping from one job to another in a constant cycle of frustration."

Alumni

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!

Knowing my Strengths has helped me write my UCAS application, apply for the right kind of course and university. I can’t wait to get started.

I was in the middle of an apprenticeship and was wondering what was next. The Purpose Pursuit developed my confidence and self belief to make the decision as to what to do next. Now, I’ve just moved to Northern Ireland and started my dream internship!

You’ll be given access to one module per week (plus two reflection weeks, time to stop, catch up, reflect so far, take stock). This way you will have ample time to dive into the lessons in each module and complete that section of the course and Purpose Profile, before moving on to the next.

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

A note from Hannah

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 work with people of all ages and stages. One of the main thing that those aged thirty and over say to me is, I wish I had known this stuff when I was younger! I would have made very different decisions. And so, with this in mind, I wanted to create a version of my established, tried and tested course for young adults. This course has all I have learned from over twenty years of work in teaching, coaching and people development, all in one place, targeted at the very life stage you are in. College, uni, school, early career, first job. I want to help you set your course in the right direction from the get go. 

Should you choose to accept my invitation, I personally guarantee that these next 10 weeks will change your life. You will see your confidence develop, your understanding of yourself with grow, and with this, you will be able to make excellent decisions about your future.

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

With love,

Hannah x
