Lesson 1

Redefining Work

To begin our journey, we’ll explore different ways to define and perceive “work”. You will learn what work means to you and uncover limiting beliefs you may have picked up from your past. The intention is to look beyond work as something we do and see it as a pathway to spiritual growth. We’ll gather inspiration from the book The Prophet by Khalil Gibran, and connect with the blessings work brings into our life.

Lesson 4

Passion, Purpose, Vocation, Ikigai

Today we will explore common ways to define “work you love” and learn what the differences are.

Lesson 5

Your Unique Genius

What is genius and why are only a few described as one? This misinterpreted word causes us to think others are more special than we are. This disempowering belief keeps us stuck in a limited sense of self. In today’s lesson, we’ll transform this mindset. We will debunk the genius myth, and you will learn five qualities to look for to find your unique gifts.

Lesson 6

Washing Away Doubt

We’ll explain why they show up and where they are useful. You’ll learn a practical strategy on getting creative projects done and work to cleanse the doubt you feel in making your dreams a reality.

Lesson 7

Certify Yourself

Our feelings of unworthiness can move us to seek it in credentials and approval. While they are supportive, they can cause us to hesitate and don't always heal the underlying issue. In today's lesson, you'll work to let go of imposter syndrome and give yourself the permission to get started. You'll feel empowered to see that if you have good intentions and can help someone, why not do it? Experience is the greatest teacher.

You will learn how to trust in your vision and stay connected to those you’re meant to serve. This understanding will help you not doubt yourself when people critique what you put out into the world.

Lesson 10

Turning Pro

Class is over. As Steven Pressfield would say, it's time to "Turn Pro." Today's lesson brings everything together to give you the mindset to show up each day and do the work you love. You'll find the courage to jump, and then build your parachute on the way down. Paradoxically, you'll let go of attachment to results, and remember that who you are is so much greater than anything you can "do."

Lesson 11

Bonus: Books & Resources

Doing work we love is a lifelong journey of learning, failing, and growing. To stay inspired, we need others that have walked the path to guide us along. Today I will note all the books and resources I mentioned throughout the course. I will also share some bonus resources that will support you moving forward. We’ll end with one last short and empowering practice.

Another great course Lou! The things you say hit the nail on the head and inspire me. The mantra ‘It only takes one’ really makes me think differently and especially incorporating those mantras in my daily meditation practices is very powerful and helpful to me. Thanks again!🙏

Thank you so much for this! This course showed up in my recommendations at the same moment that my husband and I decided to sell our business. After fifteen years of doing work I really didn’t love, I had to figure out what I was going to to with the next fifteen. While I don’t have it all figured out just yet, this course helped me come from a place of fear to a place of excitement. From not having any idea what I would or could do for the rest of my life, to having more ideas than I know what to do with. And I am finally doing work that I love. 🙏

Wonderful experience! It helped me re-realize what I know I am called to do… and at the same time, to remember to have compassion for myself. I may not be getting there at the pace I would like but I am progressing. Stacking one perfect brick then another, word by word, chapter after chapter— learning as I’m doing, making my way to the perfect life’s work. Thank you Lou! Indeed, what a gift you have! So appreciate you sharing it with me and the world!
