Deep Life Reflections: Friday Five

Issue 97 - Paths

Welcome to Issue 97 of Deep Life Reflections, where I share what I’ve been enjoying, exploring, and thinking about over the past week.

What guides your journey in life—external expectations or your inner compass? Recently, I created a new resource called Paths—a guide to help you create your version of a deep life. Built on three core elements—a philosophy, a framework, and a set of strategies—Paths helps you craft a deeper, more intentional life.

No two journeys are the same. We all see the world through our own unique experiences, so what works for one person may not work for another. That’s why Paths isn’t prescriptive—it’s an invitation to reflect, explore, and design a journey that’s meaningful to you.

Below, I’ve highlighted some of the core aspects of Paths, but I encourage you to explore the full pageyou’ll find powerful tools, wisdom, and resources to tap into.

As you read, I’d love to hear what resonates with you and where your journey is taking you this year.

Let’s walk this path together and see where it leads.

What You’ll Discover in Paths
