We are often taught to approach purpose as something to identify, claim, and then organize our lives around.
But the feminine psyche tends to experience purpose as something that emerges through relationship, season, and attention.
A few ways to reframe it:
1. Purpose is how you spend your time.
Time reveals devotion more honestly than intention.
2. Purpose is what enlivens the psyche, not what performs well.
3. Purpose shifts across seasons of life.
It is responsive rather than fixed.
4. Purpose often arrives through careful tending, not visibility or scale.
5. Purpose is shaped in relationship — to place, to community, and to one’s inner life.
6. Purpose is often lived long before it is named.
Purpose, from this lens, is not a destination.
It is a way of inhabiting one’s life and one’s body with attention.
