On: Perspective
A 7-day journaling course to question your assumptions, rewrite your story, and begin again with intention.
What lens do you view life through?
I’m not talking about the glass half empty or half full kind. I mean at your core. How do you see yourself? How do you interpret the world around you? When something happens, what meaning do you instinctively assign to it?
How aware are you that the way you see the world is just one viewpoint? That you are living inside your own atmosphere of memory, belief, and experience?
We move through life assuming we are seeing reality clearly. In truth, we are seeing it personally. Every moment passes through layers of who we have been, what we have survived, what we expect, what we fear, what we hope for. Over time, that lens becomes so familiar that it feels invisible.
That is what makes perspective so powerful.
Perspective shapes the meaning of everything. The same event can become proof that you are behind, or proof that you are growing. The same silence can feel like rejection, or like the space you needed. The same uncertainty can feel like failure, or like expansion.
What fascinates me is the shift that is in your power.
The moment you realize that your interpretation is one version of the truth, something inside you softens. You become less reactive. More curious. You begin to understand that your life is unfolding through the story you are telling about it.
Perspective is empowering because it reminds you that you can widen your frame.
When you become aware of your lens, you gain choice. And in that choice, your life begins to expand. I created this journaling course to help you do just that in the span of a week.
Over the course of seven days, our Perspective course will help you see your lens clearly. You’ll recognize the bubble you’ve been living inside and create enough space to step outside of it. Each prompt builds on the last, guiding you to question what feels “normal” and decide whether that normal still works for you.
What I want you to walk away with is agency. The ability to choose how you spend your time, who you give your energy to, and how you interpret what happens in your life. To realize you may already be living a version of the life you once hoped for. That shift in perspective changes everything.
As we move into a new season this spring, this course invites you to begin again. To release old interpretations. To make room for new ones. To move through your life with intention instead of autopilot.
Starting tomorrow, I’ll be sharing my own journal entries from the Perspective course, and I’d love for you to join me. You can explore the new course, along with our full library of courses, here. We release a new course on the first of every month so your journaling practice always feels renewed and inspired.
This month I’ve also decided to host a Community Call to talk about the course together once we’ve finished it. Thinking of it as a book club meeting, but for journaling. I’ll lead us in discussion, meet other like-minded people and realize that what you are writing in the privacy of your own journal is actually shared on the pages of others. We are all going through the same things with the same thoughts in different bodies. If you’d like to join, you can RSVP here for March 15th at 12 pm pst.
As I mentioned, I’ll be sharing Day 1 tomorrow, and I’d love for you to join me. You can unlock our courses below to have each day’s email delivered straight to your inbox. It’s a space to read, reflect, and be inspired by the additional resources I’ve curated for each daily topic, including Substack essays, podcasts, and articles.
Thank you so much for hosting the monthly call! I loved the prompt that asked "What perspectives do I need to shift in order to grow?" One of the stories I keep telling myself (and getting lost in!) is: "I need to figure it out NOW!". It puts so much pressure on me that I end up paralyzed to make any decision or take any action.
The shift I'm making is: "Feeling it out > figuring it out. When I focus on what feels good and satisfying, my gifts will reveal themselves."
i love this so much! perspective is so powerful, because we can choose at any time to recourse -- become aware and decide how we want to become. "The moment you realize that your interpretation is one version of the truth, something inside you softens. You become less reactive. More curious. You begin to understand that your life is unfolding through the story you are telling about it."
